The primary objective of translation is to accurately render the meaning of the source text into the target language. However, many translation students frequently employ inaccurate translation methods when translating between English and Arabic. This study investigates the effectiveness of the cooperative work procedure in improving translation…

Building on previous research, the authors introduced formal team-based learning (TBL) to their classrooms and measured the quality of students' team learning, professional development, and team satisfaction. They assessed students' perceived fairness of work distribution and analyzed its effect on these outcomes and found that TBL resulted in…

This paper aims to investigate the antecedents of how crowdfunded projects succeed over crowdsourcing platforms (CFPs) on the Internet. As CFPs make quite a large number of open innovations feasible, little is known about knowledge sharing and cross-project learning (CPL) in association with the success of crowdfunded projects. No study has…

While existing research has highlighted the benefits of reading and analysing comics in fostering critical thinking and multimodal literacy, few scholars have examined the pedagogical value of involving students in actively creating their own comics. Beyond developing technical and artistic skills, comics creation engages students in the affective…

Purpose: Design thinking, as a creative and innovative methodology, has been proposed as a process for non-designers to address complex problems. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using design thinking to foster English-major students' team creativity and collaboration. Design/methodology/approach: This study…

Schools of business aim to help students develop employer-valued skills, which include communication, teamwork, critical thinking, and application of learning. This can be achieved through team assignments and community-based learning. Such approaches help students apply the concepts they are learning, collaborate with others, develop managerial…

Background: Belongingness is an important predictor of academic and psychological outcomes in college students. Team-based learning (TBL) includes a number of explicit structures that should increase students' perceived belongingness (compared to other teaching approaches), including permanent team membership, and activities that encourage team…

Collaboration is an essential skill for future education professionals because they will encounter challenges that will require collectively innovative solutions. Thus, this research evaluates the impact of a three-month class hackathon (a one-day event and three post-hackathon workshops) on the collaborative competencies of students of education.…

Collaborative mathematical argumentation plays an important role in mathematics education. However, students often focus on the efficiency of solving problems and neglect the importance of expressing statements and reasoning in the collaborative argumentation process. Due to the weak knowledge changes in group argumentation, students' learning…

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it was suddenly necessary to shift college courses online. Many instructors without experience teaching online were faced with decisions about how to structure their courses and support students during the pandemic. In the three introductory STEM courses described in this article, instructors chose to include online…

Educators at Institutes of Higher Education (IHE) continuously employ group work pedagogy within their teaching and assessment regimes; however, students often voice their displeasure at its usage. In spite of these competing positions, research on students' perceptions of group work at IHE in Small Island Developing States (SIDS) is generally…

Speaking skills, being an essential part of effective communication, are significant for English as a foreign language (EFL) student in today's globalized world, and collaborative learning, being heterogeneous, assists them with more possibilities for enhancing and practicing the skills through a supportive environment, constructive feedback, and…

Team-based learning (TBL) is a flipped classroom model, where small group discussions and peer learning play a central role. Some of its features, such as scalability to large classes and a high degree of structure, together with a well-documented success rate in other fields, could make TBL an attractive option for the mathematics educator…

Problem-based learning is an active student-centred approach, which requires engineering students to work together in solving real-world problems. This study aims to review the incorporation of cooperative learning principles in an introductory first-year engineering course that aimed to develop students' group skills while working on…

We examined the utility of a technologically enhanced collective regulation system for improving students' collaborative sense-making processes, i.e., discussion quality, over time. Participants were 27 online undergraduate students enrolled in an introductory information science course. Students were divided into teams tasked with carrying out…
