As quantum technologies transition out of the research lab and into commercial applications, it becomes important to better prepare students to enter this new and evolving workforce. To work toward this goal of preparing physics students for a career in the quantum industry, a senior capstone course called "Quantum Forge" was created at…

This article speaks on a critical component of independent learning is to cultivate the habit of self-study, which is an effective way of improving students' grades, material understanding, class participation, and confidence. Self-study also enables students to be independent learners, which not only hones their critical and reasoning skills but…

Quantitative analysis in analytical chemistry is divided into semi-,relative, and absolute analysis. An example of each analysis is pH test paper, internal standard, and standard addition, respectively. However, their definition and differences have not yet been explained to students sufficiently in classes as well as textbooks. Polymerase chain…

Student engagement and student experience are two initiatives that higher education institutions usually pursue. However, the relationship between these two initiatives needs to be examined more adequately. Thus, this study assesses the effect of student engagement on the student experience. A survey research design was used to conduct the study.…

Undergraduate research, recognized as one of the High-Impact Practices (HIPs), has demonstrated a positive association with diverse student learning outcomes. Understanding the pivotal quality factors essential for its efficacy is important for enhancing student success. This study evaluates the psychometric properties of survey items employed to…

In higher education, there is a tension between teachers providing comments to students about their work and students developing agency in producing that work. Most proposals to address this tension assume a dialogic conception of feedback where students take more agency in eliciting and responding to others' advice, recently framed as developing…

The transition from college to post-college opportunities presented significant challenges for at-promise Black students, hindered by unique obstacles impacting their readiness for graduate school and careers (Thomas, 2017; Purnell & Wade, 2019). National Center for Education Statistics (2019) data underscored low graduation rates among Black…

This study investigated the impact of career preferences on the teaching self-efficacy of preservice accounting teachers. Employing a descriptive census survey, data were collected from 284 final-year preservice accounting teachers at two universities in Ghana. The study utilised an adapted Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES) developed by…

The idea of student engagement as a predictor of student success was first introduced by Alexander Astin (1974; 1984) who studied student involvement. The connection of student involvement and student success has led to the focus on student and how we measure it to ensure that institutions are doing all they can to improve outcomes. Nothing has…

There are growing calls for a decolonised curriculum. With the study reported on here, I offered an understanding of this critical topic through student voices. In this study, I illustrated how super heroes and their stories could contribute to decolonised teaching informed by the findings of the research. I specifically used the views of 30…

This article describes an assignment used in an undergraduate Advanced Exercise Physiology course for seniors. Students' backgrounds in chemistry varied from adequate to almost nonexistent. This presented several challenges for teaching and students' understanding of aerobic oxidation of a glucose molecule. This article presents an assignment for…

This study examined the English intercultural learning experience of 63 fourth-year Thai tertiary English majors through the students' evaluation form, which included the Likert scale questionnaire, checklists, and open-ended questions. The questionnaire's findings showed that the English majors evaluated gaining an English intercultural learning…

Newly graduated nurses (NGNs) are not prepared to transition to practice, often leaving practice within the first year. The purpose of this descriptive qualitative study, guided by Meleis' transition theory, was to explore the NGN's perceptions of their senior practicum experience and how the experience prepared them for transition to practice.…

This article describes the outcomes of a faculty partnership between a math professor and a composition professor to improve the final paper in a research-focused senior capstone math course. Much attention has been paid in recent years to the importance of undergraduate research experiences and how to best create and support such endeavors.…

Molecular imprinting technology holds significant potential for applications in chemical analysis and detection. In order to integrate the fundamental knowledge of polymer chemistry, electrochemistry, and analytical chemistry with practical applications and cutting-edge research, we proposed a comprehensive experiment of the preparation,…
