This paper presents a systematic literature review of using Machine Learning (ML) techniques in higher education career recommendation. Despite the growing interest in leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) for personalized academic guidance, no previous reviews have synthesized the diverse methodologies in this field. Following the Kitchenham…

The "Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education" articulates the ways of thinking, knowing, and doing that are valued in the academic community. Prior to the "Framework," several scholars explored the potential relationship between information literacy and epistemological development, or the ways in which learners…

Global trends in higher education emphasize the development of curricula that offer greater responsiveness to learners. Creating flexible and responsive curricula will require additional support systems for curriculum management. The first step toward sustainably developing this kind of system is to represent essential curricular information in a…

Higher education brings a catalog of peaks and valleys for students, staff, and faculty. These are heightened by global crises, challenging legislation, and exclusionary practices. These kinds of adversities influence how we show up in higher education spaces and impact both our leadership and well-being. As leadership reciprocally affects, and is…

This research study has been designed to be an evergreen project to help higher education institutions define their external partnerships. The action research model has been used to create and test a model of external engagement, which was later redefined as the Reaney Model of External Engagement with the intent for continuous improvement.…

The research aimed to address the confusion and diverse interpretations surrounding the integration of faith with learning (IFL) in Christian higher education institutions. The study focused on the inception of the IFL movement by its founder, Frank Gaebelein. The research posited that while Gaebelein presented a foundational model for IFL, his…

The relationship between central and academic units can cause tension within an institution as there is a desire to define ownership over activities, policies, and processes associated with enrollment management (e.g., recruitment, admissions, academic scheduling). This article proposes a new enrollment planning model that can be used to navigate…

Studies demonstrate that governance is crucial in achieving desirable performance in higher education (HE). Over the last three decades, Ethiopia's HE sector has experienced significant expansion. However, reports from the Ethiopian government, international organizations, and scholars highlight weak performance in this sector. Despite this, there…

In recent years, remarkable advancements in artificial intelligence technology have created new opportunities for transforming educational systems and enhancing student learning. This study focuses on designing a model for an AI-based intelligent assistant to provide a personalized learning experience in higher education. A qualitative approach…

This article examines the promise of honors programs in the context of service as a non-prototypical site for learning. The authors evoke publicly engaged scholarship, high-impact practices for student success, and critical pedagogy as intersecting frameworks that illuminate the Honors Living-Learning Community model at Rutgers University --…

Despite the unanimous agreement regarding the positive outcomes of learner engagement, theorists and researchers draw attention to the disparate conceptualizations and structural models of "engagement" construct. The present study, in this respect, attempts to contribute to the development of a theoretical framework by suggesting a…

Learning analytics (LA) adoption is a challenging task for higher education institutions (HEIs) since it involves different aspects of the academic environment, such as information technology infrastructure, human resource management, ethics, and pedagogical issues. Therefore, it is necessary to provide institutions with supporting instruments to…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been highlighted as a potentially disruptive force across several industries and in higher education. Research has suggested that education and upskilling of citizens should adopt a broad approach, not only focusing on experts, for better nationwide AI readiness. This study investigates the content of AI policies…

Despite the benefits of integrated Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education that have been discussed for decades; many teachers still find it challenging to implement integrated STEM education due to lacking confidence and experience. Numerous models and frameworks exist, but they tend to focus on enhancing teachers'…

Higher education institutions have consistently strived to provide students with top-notch education. To achieve better outcomes, machine learning (ML) algorithms greatly simplify the prediction process. ML can be utilized by academicians to obtain insight into student data and mine data for forecasting the performance. In this paper, the authors…
