We offer ways that the inspection paradox can be usefully presented, even in the most elementary statistics courses, and provide guidance about how it can be revisited subsequently in the same course and in succeeding courses. Numerous situations in which the inspection paradox might occur are mentioned, and mathematically simple demonstrations…

Teaching regionally focused introductory undergraduate courses can be challenging when students do not have similar levels of formal geography experience. One way to offset this problem is to introduce core geographical concepts as a framework to help refocus attention on the myriad spatial dynamics at work in a region. This article explores how…

Designing and delivering an oral poster presentation is becoming very common for undergraduate students to showcase their research, whether it be in conferences, symposiums, and/or poster sessions; however, there is limited published evidence on how to successfully develop and make a presentation. This article demonstrates how undergraduate…

Many nonprofit organizations rely upon volunteers and fundraising events to supplement their operating budgets. Unfortunately, these budgets are often so tight that they do not allow for supplemental purchases beyond daily operations. Many nonprofit organizations would love to have volunteer help who could create software to meet their specific…

In this senior capstone course, students participate in a semester-long project to observe an organization while applying communication theories and concepts that they have learned throughout their time in the program. After observing the organization and conducting informal interviews with some of its members, students identify a…

This research aims to develop an adaptive digital project-based learning model enhanced with artificial intelligence technology to facilitate the creation of digital content. A systematic approach was employed, divided into three phases: 1) study and synthesis of conceptual frameworks to understand the elements and relationships of related…

The aim of this study is to investigate the production and dissemination of mathematical modeling-based projects by gifted students, intended to solve real-life problems, over the four-year Project Production and Management Program (PPMP). The longitudinal research methodology was utilized to examine the project production process among…

Project-based learning (PBL) is a learning method considered suitable for the spirit of the times and the period because of its ability to promote the acquisition of the skills required in the 21st century. In recent years, this method has been gaining increased expression in education systems worldwide and the Israeli education system as well.…

Background/purpose. Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) development represents a critical challenge in biology higher education. While Project-Based Learning (PjBL) shows promise, empirical evidence remains fragmented across individual studies. This meta-analysis systematically synthesized evidence on PjBL effectiveness in developing HOTS among…

This reflective article describes an initiative that created a publicly accessible e-book comprised of digital media (podcast, video, web essay) research assignments produced by Bachelor of Education students at a Canadian university. A teacher-education instructor and a learning specialist designed and undertook the project collaboratively. The…

Universal design (UD) is a design philosophy that offers effective concepts and tools to help designers develop accessible products, services, and environments. Despite the growing need for inclusive design strategies, UD is not typically integrated into design education, particularly textile design. Textile design is associated with the process…

This study comprehensively evaluates the values, beliefs, knowledge, and environmental consciousness of students participating in the School Botany Program regarding plant genetics conservation. Thailand's rich biodiversity, including over 200,000 plant species, faces significant threats, necessitating conservation efforts. In response, the Plant…

Traditional assessments in undergraduate psychology often prioritise technical accuracy over creativity. In response to growing calls for more inclusive, flexible, and student-centered pedagogy, this article presents two case studies on the use of the 'unessay' in mid-level undergraduate psychology courses. The unessay allows students to…

Computational thinking (CT) is an essential component of critical skills for university students, representing the ability to analyze and solve problems. In accordance with constructivist learning theory and the core elements of cultivating CT, this research has developed a Project-Based Teaching approach with computational thinking as its focal…

This study examined the impact of a Vertically Integrated Projects (VIP) program on engineering identity, self-efficacy, mindset, intentions to stay in engineering, and self-perceived science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) knowledge/skills through a pre/ postsurvey design with 22 students. Results indicated no significant changes…
