Moon-Heum Cho; Lei Zhang; Seongmi Lim; Seokwon Hwang – Distance Education, 2024
Although higher education institutions offer self-paced massive open online courses (MOOCs) on platforms like edX, little systematic effort has been made to examine their instructional design features. The purpose of this study was, therefore, to review self-paced MOOCs on edX and examine their instructional design features for those interested in…

Doten-Snitker, Kerice; Margherio, Cara; Litzler, Elizabeth; Ingram, Ella; Williams, Julia – Research in Higher Education, 2021
Shared vision is an important process for change projects, serving to amplify success, increase participation, and erode the divide between project leaders and constituents. Yet there are few empirical examinations of the process of building shared vision within academic departments. Using focus groups and participant observation, this study…

Lu, Chang; Macdonald, Rob; Odell, Bryce; Kokhan, Vasyl; Demmans Epp, Carrie; Cutumisu, Maria – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2022
The field of computational thinking (CT) is developing rapidly, reflecting its importance in the global economy. However, most empirical studies have targeted CT in K-12, thus, little attention has been paid to CT in higher education. The present scoping review identifies and summarizes existing empirical studies on CT assessments in…

Almuhaideb, Abdullah M.; Saeed, Saqib – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2021
ABET accreditation has become a well-known standard for academic programs not only in the U.S. but also across the globe. Instantiating the processes to systematically improve the quality of programs is a daunting task for higher education institutions. In this contribution, we provide a detailed process-based framework that can assist aspiring…

Joseph R. Cimpian; Jo R. King – Grantee Submission, 2024
Men significantly outnumber women in physics, engineering, and computer science (PECS) majors, with a recent male-to-female ratio of approximately 4:1, a stark contrast to the near parity in other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines (1). This gender disparity in PECS carries wide-reaching implications for equity,…

Lagesen, Vivian Anette; Pettersen, Ivar; Berg, Line – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
This paper address how we may understand inclusion strategies designed to reduce the gender gap in higher education in engineering and ICT engineering in particular. Based on a case study of a long-term inclusion effort and statistics on recruitment and retainment, we argue that inclusion initiatives which address important inclusion needs and put…

Historically, girls and women have experienced gender disparity in access to, and persistence in, STEM education. Though women comprise 50% of the total workforce, they occupy only 25% of STEM-related occupations. STEM degrees and occupations have been linked to economic prosperity, both for individuals and the nation as a whole. However, women…
