This study, anchored in the empirical domain of student learning experiences, employs the Chaoxing Fanya network teaching platform to delineate a comprehensive model of factors that influence student learning experiences within the framework of blended collaborative learning. Through a rigorous synthesis of extant literature and qualitative…

Integrating cultural contexts into mathematics education, mainly through Ethno-Realistic Mathematics Education (Ethno-RME), presents a significant opportunity to enhance students' numeracy skills in geometry. However, challenges persist in effectively incorporating cultural elements into curricula while maintaining rigorous and modern mathematical…

This study examined the impact of a blended teaching approach versus traditional instruction on listening comprehension and strategy use among EFL students in a Taiwanese university. Using a quasi-experimental design, 103 low-intermediate students were divided into experimental (n=52) and control (n=51) groups over 18 weeks. The experimental group…

Purpose: An important prerequisite for innovation is continuous employee learning. Organizations can set out to increase employee learning by creating positive conditions within the organization that facilitate employee learning and development. However, the dimensions of such a learning culture and the potential beneficial outcomes have been…

Purpose: Most research on tandem language learning (TLL) has involved university contexts . To contribute to the paucity of research in school settings, this study focuses on a high school teacher's attempt at setting up an ESL-FSL exchange in a Canadian intranational context. To better understand the complexity of innovation, the process is…

This design case centers around a creative assignment given to graduate students studying instructional design. The goal of the assignment is to facilitate mastery of learning theories through the theory-based evaluation of an instructional product, using both research and imagination. By applying learning theories in a practical and engaging…

This study explores the effectiveness of experiential learning in teaching generative AI to entrepreneurs and small business owners. The in-person training program, grounded in Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory, aimed to enhance participants' understanding, attitudes, and perceived benefits of AI adoption.

The competence to work together and co-create with others outside one's own scientific domain, culture or professional practice is a critical competence for engineers to respond to global challenges. In this context, boundary crossing (BC) competence is crucial. We reflect on a university-wide participatory action research educational innovation…

The current demand for integrating technology into English language instruction to engage students in meaningful conversations is pressing in the digital era. Despite this, research on employing Google tools for collaborative, task-based activities in English education is scarce, particularly in meeting the needs of today's digital learners and…

This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate the feasibility of an activity titled "Space Adventure for Little Explorers", integrating the engineering and entrepreneurship design model within the STEM education framework into preschool education. The activity was structured in four stages: (1) Discovery with the Family, (2)…

Work motivation is a core component of many management courses. However, its effective teaching can be hampered by the fragmentation and seeming incoherence of the various theories of work motivation. To address this challenge, we describe an interactive role-play activity that induces students to synthesize, apply, and compare several theories of…

To gain insight into the potential benefits and shortcomings of online experiential education, seventeen teachers were interviewed who offered online experiential legal education following the COVID-19 pandemic. Juxtaposing the online learning activities with the stages of the experiential learning cycle provided a more detailed understanding of…
