This study explores calculus students' opportunities to learn the concepts of integral by examining one mathematician's videotaped lessons and the textbook. Results show that both lessons and the textbook introduce important cognitive resources briefly and focus on other units of knowledge. Implications to these results are also discussed.

In this paper, we discuss our experience in collaborating with mathematicians to increase their use of active learning pedagogy in a proof-based linear algebra course. The mathematicians we worked with valued using active learning pedagogy to increase student engagement but were reluctant to use active learning pedagogy due to time constraints.…

One-way athletic training education can help is to encourage preceptors to assist in mentoring athletic training students (ATSs) as they navigate the shift from…

The purpose of this research was to investigate social responsibility in the apparel and textiles field through the lens of the faculty, including how they define social responsibility and incorporate it into the curriculum. This research explored how faculty who identify as teaching from a social responsibility perspective interpret the term,…

The cognitive theory of multimedia learning (CTML) describes a set of empirically tested principles that technical and professional communication research largely acknowledges as important to the design of presentation slides. However, presenters often run into difficulties understanding how to apply CTML principles to contexts in which it has not…

The study investigates effects of ethics education interventions (EEIs) in accounting programmes and the moderating role of personal demographic factors on ethical attitudes of accountants (EAA) within the context of Ghana. It employs a survey of 340 accountants and uses ordinary least square to test some hypothesized relationships. The results…

Digital storytelling (DST) dovetails well with facilitative teaching and is frequently lauded as an avenue to positive outcomes within and outside of educational institutions. Ascribed results include empowering marginalized voices, building community and fostering engagement, deepening cultural identity and understanding, engendering empathy, and…

This article argues in favour of higher education studies in sign language (SL) related disciplines, more specifically, sign language interpreting and translation (SLIT) -- focusing on the Spanish, and Basque, academic situation and societal needs. Firstly, we offer an overview of higher education SL teaching and SLIT training in Europe and Spain.…

Professional competence is a necessary component of a person's professionalism in any area. The aim of the research is the formation of the professional activity of a future competitive specialist in the educational process of universities for the system-structural organization of professional training of biology students. The analysis of a wide…

The expression that professionals should be led by their moral or ethical compass is increasingly used by academics, policy makers, professionals, and educational institutes. Dutch universities of applied sciences (UAS), for example, explicitly aim to educate their students to become professionals equipped with a moral compass. This moral or…

The practical orientation of undergraduate translation and interpreting degrees in Spain means that less importance is given to theoretical modules, and it is often thought that students doubt the usefulness of these modules and are therefore reluctant to take them. Previous empirical research has shown that students are not as averse to theory as…
