Jason A. Colquitt; David M. Long; Richard J. Gentry – Journal of Management Education, 2024
Discussions about the status of scholarly journals in management have tended to revolve around impact factor and standing on relevant lists-cues whose validity has been oft-debated. We introduce a new metric for gauging the status of scholarly journals. Syllabus share represents the proportion of doctoral seminar syllabi comprised of articles from…

Healy, Sarah; Mulcahy, Dianne – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2023
As critical posthumanist and (new) materialist scholarship become more established in educational research, a reconsideration of methodological approaches suited to a radical relational onto-epistemology is required. A popular figuration adopted by researchers to help think and do such research is the Deleuze-Guattarian "rhizome." Coming…

Richmond, Aaron S.; Breedin, Olivia W.; Pletcher, Jessica A.; Lich, Tori; Sharp, Andrew D. – Journal on Excellence in College Teaching, 2023
Although an abundance of research has discussed the importance of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), there is little research on how UDL may be used in syllabus construction. The authors developed and validated the UDL Syllabus Scale (UDLSS), which evaluates higher education instructors' ability to design a syllabus using UDL principles. Over…

Štemberger, Tina – Center for Educational Policy Studies Journal, 2020
Professional learning is a continuum starting in initial teacher education and persisting throughout the teacher's career. Initial teacher education programmes should therefore prepare prospective teachers for professional learning via research. There is, however, little knowledge about how initial teacher education programmes educate students…

Two-Phase Study Examining Perspectives and Use of Quantitative Methods in Physics Education Research
Knaub, Alexis V.; Aiken, John M.; Ding, Lin – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
While other fields such as statistics and education have examined various issues with quantitative work, few studies in physics education research (PER) have done so. We conducted a two-phase study to identify and to understand the extent of these issues in quantitative PER. During phase 1, we conducted a focus group of three experts in this area,…

Collins, Jennifer Shalini; Olesik, Susan V. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
There is a severe shortage of Black scientists in the United States. Amid the recent national movement to dismantle systemic racism and racial injustices, many scientists publicly highlighted the prevalence of racist learning environments in STEM, contributing to the underrepresentation of Black students in STEM fields. Acknowledging this…

Hughes, Stacey Holliday – ELT Journal, 2019
This article responds to Jordan and Gray's critique of the global coursebook and the call to have open, critical discussions about coursebook use in light of SLA research (Jordan and Gray 2019). I?make a case for why the assumptions made about what constitutes a global coursebook are too narrow. I?also dismiss the idea of one type of global…

Cortney Hanna-Benson; Shayla Kroeze; Radhika Gandhi; Tom Haffie; Lindi M. Wahl – International Journal for Students as Partners, 2020
The impact of collaborative course design is explored in this qualitative, longitudinal study of an upper-year course in which 30-40 undergraduate students co-designed the course syllabus, including both course content and assessments. In addition, the research questions and methods were co-designed by a research team involving six undergraduate…

Lloro-Bidart, Teresa – Journal of Environmental Education, 2018
Extending and challenging Arun Appadurai's anthropocentric "scapes," this article converses with feminist posthumanism, ecofeminism, and the political ecology of education to develop a more-than-human ecopedagogy in/for/with animalScapes. After outlining the article's theoretical framework, I briefly discuss the research cases informing…

Higgins, Abigail L. – ProQuest LLC, 2017
This study explored student agency in an active-learning business calculus course. The lecture-style instructional practices typically used in this course at this institution allow few opportunities for students to interact with their peers, interface with the instructor one-on-one, or do mathematics during class time. Additionally, this course…

Zuccala, Alesia – Education for Information, 2016
In the past few decades the core of bibliometrics has predominantly been "scientometric" in nature, due to the first commercial citation index having been created for scientific journals and articles. The production of citation indexes for books implies that proper education related to their use is now becoming critical. A new breed of…

Walter, Pierre – Adult Learning, 2019
The difficult times in which we live require innovative, creative, and hopeful pedagogies of adult education. This article describes a nontraditional experiential, "empathy-invoking" approach to the teaching of a graduate course on the theory and research of adult learning. The approach begins with the building of a safe learning…

Clegg, Sue – Teaching in Higher Education, 2015
The paper presents an analysis of the forms of meaning making in "Teaching in Higher Education" between 2005 and 2013. Unlike other papers which have reviewed higher education journals the analysis was based on reading full papers. Previous analyses of journals have commented on the a-theoretical nature of much research into higher…

Utter, Brian C.; Paulson, Scott A.; Almarode, John T.; Daniel, David B. – Teacher Educators' Journal, 2018
We argue, based on a multi-year collaboration to develop a pedagogy course for physics majors by experts in physics, education, and the science of learning, that the process of teaching science majors about education and the science of learning, and evidence-based teaching methods in particular, requires conceptual change analogous to that…

Airey, John; Lauridsen, Karen M.; Räsänen, Anne; Salö, Linus; Schwach, Vera – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2017
Recently, in the wake of the Bologna Declaration and similar international initiatives, there has been a rapid increase in the number of university courses and programmes taught through the medium of English. Surveys have consistently shown the Nordic countries to be at the forefront of this trend towards English-medium instruction (EMI). In this…
