Mathias Norqvist; Bert Jonsson; Johan Lithner – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
In mathematics classrooms, it is common practice to work through a series of comparable tasks provided in a textbook. A central question in mathematics education is if tasks should be accompanied with solution methods, or if students should construct the solutions themselves. To explore the impact of these two task designs on student behavior…

Heather L. Kaminski; Kathryn Marten; Dianne D. Murphy – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2025
The High-Impact Practices (HIPs) Spectrum is a taxonomy for assessing and categorizing courses along a continuum based on elements of High Impact Practices (Marten et al., in press). This study provides quantitative evidence for the validity and impact of the HIPs Spectrum by analyzing seven years of enrollment data in a Midwestern regional…

Anna C-S Chang – TESL-EJ, 2024
Singing or listening to songs is one of the most common L2 activities outside the classroom, and many language teachers integrate songs in their teaching; however, the effect of varying song practice modes on L2 learners' retention of linguistic knowledge is under-researched. Eighty-seven EFL learners of university students were recruited and…

Jolien Moorkens; Jean-Philippe van Dijck; Wim Fias – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2025
Previous research has investigated the Spatial Numerical Associations of Response Codes (SNARC) effect as a measure of spatial number coding in relation to mathematics (Cipora et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.1111/nyas.14355). An issue that arises if one wants to correlate mathematical performance with the SNARC effect, is how individual…

Adam F. McBride; Céline Rose – Canadian Modern Language Review, 2025
Despite the fact that pronunciation is a vital aspect of language learning, previous research has shown that its instruction is limited in the classroom in terms of time and attention, due in part to the time constraints inherent in any curriculum. It then becomes essential for instructors to be strategic about the pronunciation features they…

Mark W. Patterson; Teresa P. Raczek – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2025
To improve student outcomes in four-credit asynchronous online physical geography classes that included a lab component, we employed three different experimental techniques in spring 2022. Fifteen faculty who collectively taught 24 sections of Introduction to Landforms or Weather and Climate modified one element of their course to foster improved…

Brodie, Jacqueline; Osowska, Renata – Industry and Higher Education, 2021
Universities globally are aspiring to grow through investing in the delivery of online learning programmes. However, the attrition rate for online learning is high. It has been noted that those students with a sense of belonging to their course experience increased enjoyment and reduced anxiety and are therefore less likely to withdraw. Yet too…

Olanrewaju P. Olaogun; Nathaniel J. Hunsu – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2025
Students have misconceptions about many scientific topics they encounter in the classroom--such misconceptions are especially rife in subjects with counterintuitive concepts. Several studies have copiously documented students' misconceptions in different science domains. Research shows that students' misconceptions can be resistant to change and…

Khristin Fabian; Sally Smith; Ella Taylor-Smith – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2024
The COVID-19 pandemic moved focus from face-to-face learning to hybrid in Higher Education; many educators did not have previous experience of this mode prior to this shift in learning locations. One form of hybrid learning is "synchronous hybrid learning" where both face-to-face and online students simultaneously attend learning…

Saxon, D. Patrick; Martirosyan, Nara – Journal of College Academic Support Programs, 2020
The redesign of the instructional delivery of developmental mathematics courses is currently commonplace. This study reports the results of a survey of faculty who teach various models of accelerated developmental mathematics (ADM) courses in 2- and 4-year colleges across the United States. Findings reported and described include the positive…

Engelsrud, Gunn; Rugseth, Gro; Nordtug, Birgit – Sport, Education and Society, 2023
Even though qualitative research methods are considered important and have become more commonplace in research related to the sport sciences, there is little insight into the efforts made by sport science students to learn qualitative research methods. In this article, the authors use a course on qualitative methods inspired by a phenomenological…

Wood, Eileen; Mirza, Amna; Shaw, Lindsay – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2018
Media multitasking is a common artifact of the increasing presence of technologies in classrooms. However, research indicates learning decrements when students engage in inappropriate or "off-task" media multitasking during class time. This is a concern as many innovative teaching practices call for the use of technologies. The present…

The gamification of learning has increased in popularity in recent years as a tool for enhancing student engagement and attainment. In undergraduate chemistry courses, hybridization is a fundamental concept that students need to master in order to understand introductory organic and inorganic topics. This study focused on the development of a card…

Kosareva, Larisa; Demidov, Lev; Ikonnikova, Irina; Shalamov?, Olga – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study examined the efficiency of teaching Russian as a foreign language (L2) in two groups of students -- the first benefited from the e-learning platform's capabilities (experimental), and the second underwent a traditional in-class course. Students learning Russian as L2 at People's Friendship University of Russia (Moscow, Russia) were…
