K.; Price, Stephen P.; Soliman, Sherif; Sutar, Papri; Townsend, David; Trotter, Patrick; Wright, Karen L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
For some professionally, vocationally, or technically oriented careers, curricula delivered in higher education establishments may focus on teaching material related to a single discipline. By contrast, multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary teaching(MITT) results in improved affective and cognitive learning and critical…

Junsheng Huang; Longfei Cai – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
We introduced a microfluidic paper-based analytical device ([mu]PAD) to undergraduates majoring in nutrition education using a modified acid-base titration on paper microzones. After designing experiments for sample analysis using micro acid-base titration, students fabricated the devices and implement the experiment as designed. Then they…

Olaniyi, Nkaepe E. E. – Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning, 2020
There is so-called troublesome knowledge in every subject. There is various subject-specific research available on what these particular concepts are, as well as some examples of how to help students cross those thresholds. There is, however, a gap in the area of implementation, a more practical format for addressing student learning when there…

Mary Rose Briones; Maricar Prudente; Denis Dyvee Errabo – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic stimulated education system worldwide to employ online learning to support learning despite difficult times. To respond to this challenge and to promote Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4, advocating quality education, a virtual learning material (VLM) for Biology was articulated in Google Classroom. Accordingly, this study…

van der Wal, Nathalie J.; Bakker, Arthur; Drijvers, Paul – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2019
The workplace practices of engineers have changed due to the ubiquity of digital technology. So-called techno-mathematical literacies (TmL), seen as a domain specification of 21st-century skills, are essential for future engineers. How these TmL can be fostered in their education, however, is still unclear. To address this issue, we conducted a…

Imhof, Christof; Bergamin, Per; Moser, Ivan; Holthaus, Matthias – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
This article demonstrates how an adaptive instructional design for a physics module can be realized in a standard learning management system. We implemented a didactic design with physics-specific online exercises that were accompanied by either detailed or non-detailed instructions, depending on the results of the previous task (or a prior…

Tiruneh, Dawit Tibebu; Weldeslassie, Ataklti G.; Kassa, Abrham; Tefera, Zinaye; De Cock, Mieke; Elen, Jan – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2016
Identifying effective instructional approaches that stimulate students' critical thinking (CT) has been the focus of a large body of empirical research. However, there is little agreement on the instructional principles and procedures that are theoretically sound and empirically valid to developing both domain-specific and domain-general CT…

McNeil, Jane; Borg, Michaela – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2018
Although there is considerable interest in learning spaces in higher education, the relationship between spaces and learning is complex and not well-understood. Despite challenges, such as the lack of comparability between studies, we need to learn more about the interaction of space design and learning. A crucial step towards this is the creation…

Roberts, Ros – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2016
This article considers what might be taught to meet a widely held curriculum aim of students being able to understand research in a discipline. Expertise, which may appear as a "chain of practice," is widely held to be underpinned by networks of understanding. Scientific research expertise is considered from this perspective. Within…

Thorsteinsson, Gisli; Kikkull, Andry – Design and Technology Education, 2019
This article examines the possibility of supporting craft education by incorporating knowledge students have gained via science lessons: such knowledge largely refers to the mathematics and physics taught in Estonian comprehensive schools. Results were gleaned from interviews with craft teachers in Estonia, in order to establish their attitudes to…

Scott, Amy N.; McNair, Delores E.; Lucas, Jonathan C.; Land, Kirkwood M. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2017
Introductory science, math, and engineering courses often have problems related to student engagement, achievement, and course completion. To begin examining these issues in greater depth, this pilot study compared student engagement, achievement, and course completion in a small and large section of an introductory biology class. Results based on…

Wyse, Sara A.; Soneral, Paula A. G. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2018
Despite its value in higher education, academic rigor is a challenging construct to define for instructor and students alike. How do students perceive academic rigor in their biology course work? Using qualitative surveys, we asked students to identify "easy" or "hard" courses and define which aspects of these learning…
