A professional development intervention (PDI) was developed for science teachers, focusing on pedagogies to integrate indigenous knowledge (IK) into school curriculum topics. The study aimed to determine which characteristics of science PDIs were imperative to support teacher learning and influence teacher practice for IK integration in science…

Institutions are redesigning gateway courses--lower-division courses known to create student success bottlenecks--to influence persistence and completion goals. These initiatives, student success course redesigns (SSCR), are specialized versions of course design institutes (CDIs). This investigation into SSCRs uses content analysis to examine the…

Engineering education is pivotal in driving sustainable development forward, yet many engineers encounter hurdles stemming from insufficient preparation for sustainability challenges.

Australia and New Zealand have reputations as countries prone to catastrophic and frequent natural and man-made disasters. Therefore, it is no surprise that antipodean academics want trauma-informed education for their journalism students. This study presents the Australian-New Zealand results of a 2021 survey exploring educators' attitudes toward…

This study examines whether teachers' content adaptations to middle school math curricula align with mathematical learning progressions and explores their motivations for adaptation. This study originates from a concern that as teachers make adaptations to their lessons, they may make adaptations that move students away from the intended learning…

Drawing upon a collection of curriculum proposals and reflections and informed by a textual analysis approach, this study investigated how 234 university teachers planned to enact and reform their English-medium instruction courses (n = 66) in an English as a foreign language (EFL) university context.
