In a rapidly evolving technology and skill-based economy, the development and engagement in practical skills and motivation among electronic technology education students is key to their career readiness and employability. Thus, this study investigated the relationship between initial training experiences and electronic technology education…

The current paper presents the findings of an educational design study conducted within the realm of science communication training. Within this study framework, we implemented the active listening observation scale (ALOS) in a science communication training based on (deliberate) experiential learning. Our investigation centered on determining the…

Purpose: The increasing prevalence of dementia poses significant challenges for speech-language pathologists (SLPs), who often lack specialized training in addressing degenerative disorders. Simulations can offer students a safe and standardized environment to develop essential skills. This study evaluated whether the Virtual Dementia Tour, a…

Simulated learning experiences (SLEs) are becoming increasingly popular in communication sciences and disorders (CSD) training programs. This pilot study examines the relative effectiveness of delivering a SLE via standard computer or using virtual reality headsets for a more immersive learning experience. Seventy undergraduate CSD students were…

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide with occasional serious complications, including bile duct injuries, that may reflect surgeon misperception, rather than errors of skill and knowledge. Intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) is an imaging procedure that may prevent or…

Vertical jump performance is vital to many sports and is predictive of power output. Both resistance exercises and plyometric exercises have been shown to increase vertical jump performance. Identifying the type of exercise that increases jump height the most may be useful to coaches and athletes worldwide. The literature has stated that both…

There has been an increased push for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students and scientists to be trained in science communication. Science communication researchers have outlined various models of how scientists interact with nonscientists--including deficit, dialogue, and inclusive approaches. We wanted to analyze…

This research examines the critical need for CRM skills within marketing and sales education and explores how integrating CRM training into curricula…

This paper aims to study the features of vocal improvisation using interactive musical technologies. The survey method contributed to determining the level of vocal skills of 214 respondents auditioned before the experiment. The authors developed a training programme based on previously received information. It included breathing, technical,…

To tackle today's most challenging problems, we must explore effective and scalable ways to train the next generation in leading the design and research of high-impact solutions. In addition to core design-research skills (i.e. prototyping techniques and research methodologies), learners must also develop the metacognitive skills necessary for…

As the dual crises of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and worsening climate change show, the public must be accurately informed about science. However, many barriers hinder effective messaging about science to the public, including little formal communication training for scientists and an abundance of misleading information from nonscientific…

Public sector accounting education (PSAE) has recently attracted increasing attention from both scholars and practitioners. Nonetheless, there is still an education/practice gap that undermines public servants' ability to face the complexity of the current working environment. This paper reviews and critiques the PSAE literature, identifies the…

Enterprise systems are complex information systems that are inevitable for companies' success. As enterprise systems are only successful when used continuously and efficiently by end-users, knowledge on how to use them has become an important skill for employees. Research and practice favor an early obtainment of these skills for employees. Thus,…

A great deal of research has established training student affairs and higher education (SAHE) professionals in helping skills is important to assist undergraduate students in college and university programs with mental health needs. The COVID-19 global pandemic placed SAHE professionals in a unique position to support college students as students…

Purpose: This study was designed based on the need to verify the effectiveness of education in the vocology area concerning refining perceptual auditory skills.
