In this review of the "Educational Goods," the author provides a set of comments that might extend the worthy framework provided by Brighouse, Ladd, Loeb and Swift. In particular, the author calls attention to the ways in which continued work within this project might broaden its conceptualisation of educational goods, increase the scope…

The arrival of generative artificial intelligence (AI) is fundamentally different from prior technologies used in educational settings. Educators and researchers of online, blended, and in-person learning are still coming to grips with how to employ current AI technologies in the learning experience, let alone understanding the potential…

In this brief comment on "Educational Goods," I raise two worries about the authors' proposed normative framework for educational decision-makers. The first concerns the omission of rationality, or responsiveness to reasons, from the list of educational goods; the second concerns the inclusion of parental interests in the list of…

In this paper, the authors will discuss the application of ADDIE, a five-step instructional design model. ADDIE prescribes the generic, systematic, dynamic, and flexible instructional design process, which offers educators a productive approach to education. The authors will illustrate how to apply the model in a college-level reading lesson.…

Purpose: This study aims to critically examine talent management practices and strategies from ethical and responsible management perspectives. Design/methodology/approach: It achieves its aim through conceptual analysis by theorising through the lenses of talent philosophies, the organisational justice theory, the stakeholder theory and extant…

Aim/Purpose: This study aims to introduce an innovative approach to improving learning outcomes for hearing-impaired learners (HL) within inclusive education settings. By integrating design thinking principles into Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) specifically designed for HL, this research seeks to address their unique educational needs. The…

The past [approximately]15 years have seen increasing interest in defining disciplinary core concepts. Within the field of physiology, Michael, McFarland, Modell, and colleagues have published studies that defined physiology core concepts and have elaborated many of these as detailed conceptual frameworks. With such helpful definitions now in…

A strong theoretical approach with a specific focus on disciplinary research characterizes the common science master's education in the Netherlands. However, a work-based learning (WBL) approach may as well be expedient and suitable for science education at master's level. In this paper, a case study is presented of a WBL-program designed for an…

School counselors are uniquely qualified to meet the increasing mental health needs of students within the school setting. Play therapy is an evidence-based intervention used by school counselors to address the mental health needs of youth. Job demands require school counselors to provide goal-focused and time-sensitive interventions. Accordingly,…

This article examines a school district's effort to create a unified culture of mathematical excellence through which everyone would know what high-quality instruction should look like and how they would shift their practices to those that aligned with their vision. This is accomplished through their Mathematics Teaching Practices Inventory…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to provide advice to organizations on how to become successful in the digital age. The paper revisits Peter Senge's (1990) notion of the learning organization and discusses the relevance of systems thinking and the other four disciplines, namely, personal mastery, mental models, shared vision and team learning…

In the beginning of the 19th century, Humboldt defined Bildung as both process and product of the developing person. In this contribution we discuss how this classical concept may be used for defining subject didactics. We use two complementary approaches to answer it: a historical analysis, and the construction of a theoretical model. 1)…

Physical education teachers should have sufficient content knowledge (CK) to provide high-quality physical education for students. CK is an important knowledge base for pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), which is considered the teacher's knowledge to adapt the instructions in the teaching and learning process. Mature PCK can be an indicator of…

A technocratic model of curriculum design that has been highly influential since the middle of last century assumes that the aims of education can be, and should be: 1. Causally brought about by administering educational experiences; 2. Specified as objectives that can be attained, reached or completed; 3. Changes in students that are described in…

In this paper, the author examines several structural frameworks: Weber's model of bureaucracy, Likert's system 4 organization, Bolman and Deal's four-frame model, Mintzberg's strategy-structure typology, Scott's open-systems perspective, Senge's learning organization, and Bass's transformational leadership. In the broadest sense, the usefulness…
