The purpose of this research was to perform a meta-analysis to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of traditional, cooperative, constructivist, and computer-assisted teaching, and also to compare the effectiveness of these four approaches over the last twenty years. So, the present research adopted meta-analysis technique. In order to…

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of student-centered approaches (SCA) on students' creative thinking skills (CTS). Meta-analysis method is used in the study. The scope of the study consists of Master and PhD theses and research articles addressing this issue in Turkey. As a result of the screening, it is seen that there are 104…

Setting priorities for higher education research is essential to maximise limited resources. Our study aimed to identify priorities for higher education research at one large research-intensive Australian university. A sequential three-phase mixed methods study was conducted. Phase 1 engaged 69 students, academics, and professional staff in an…

For the European higher education sector, the past five years have seen many changes and transformations, some gradual, others more drastic and disruptive.
