Video lectures in massive open online courses (MOOCs) provide an opportunity to not only deliver instructional content but also engage learners. While there are many different styles of video lectures, it is not clear how video styles affect learner engagement. This study analysed and critiqued different typologies of video styles and classified…

This paper details an integrated inquiry-based mathematics and science method course for preservice teachers designed around STEM problem-based learning. It documents how problem-based learning (PBL) activities supported PSTs' envisioning of equitable approaches for diverse children. The overarching research question was: "How did preservice…

Studies reporting flexible assessment strategies and their impact across different modes of study remain limited with little emphasis placed on the role these arrangements play in devising authentic assessment processes. This paper synthesises recent research work depicting flexible design principles and practice strategies for how educators might…

The pedagogical development (PD) for educators in higher engineering education is indispensable to the promotion of educational changes and high-quality teaching and learning necessary to train twenty-first century engineering talents. With the expansion of various PD activities in engineering education in recent decades, there is a growing need…

This paper discusses the ethical challenges presented by artificial intelligence (AI) within the instructional process for students with disabilities. The authors briefly overview technological changes in education and applications of AI in education in addition to policy. Discussion is directed toward the development of an ethical pedagogy using…

Instructional designers and professional trainers conduct many different types of training. However, some topics are job- and- task-specific and are more effectively taught by subject matter expert (SME) trainers. In some cases, these SMEs are given training and/or instructional design (ID) resources, and in other cases they have to learn best…

The use of full online learning is projected to continue indefinitely. An instructional design for online learning that incorporates didactic, active learning activities, and health welfare is proposed. A single-subject multiple baseline design with two controls and two experiments was implemented with a class of 30 nursing students. Four weeks of…

Generative AI (GenAI) is transforming higher education. It has already challenged the validity of traditional assessment methods and revealed concerns about the authenticity and reliability of conventional approaches. This opinion piece proposes an expanded theoretical framework for contextual learning, incorporating practical, situational,…

The field of biology is becoming increasingly fragmented, and this fragmentation spills over into the ways our students think and learn about biology. Biology education policy documents stress the importance of teaching biology in an integrated manner and call for the biology education research community to establish a unifying paradigm for the…

In this article, Andreas Reichelt Lind explores the possibilities of a Deweyan account of education for democracy. To that end, an account emphasizing democratic habit formation, direct experience of democracy as a way of life, and the distinction between being and becoming is explicated and discussed. Lind shows how these elements together point…

Behavior analysts are frequently responsible for teaching concepts and operations. Whether teaching in academia, training employees within corporations, working with young learners, or serving disabled learners, behavior analysts primarily find themselves in an instructional position relaying information from themselves to others. They often…

National physical activity guidelines recommend that school-age youths participate in fitness-related activities, such as: (a) aerobic, (b) anaerobic, and (c) mobility activities at least three days per week. Physical education provides students with the opportunity to develop competencies in fitness knowledge and skills. Fitness is an established…

The importance of models and modeling in science education is well-recognized, yet there exists significant polysemy among these terms within the literature. This ambiguity often leads to confusion, particularly regarding whether modeling represents an expected student performance, an instructional strategy to promote such performance, or both.…

This study purposes to investigate the impacts of "theoretical" and "practical" courses on cyber entrepreneurial intention and its leading variables based on TAM/TPB integrated model. Targeted sampling technology is used to compare multiple groups of students who had taken cyber entrepreneurship courses or not, which used…

The present study aimed to describe teachers' instructional flows when implementing a mathematical problem-posing task using scriptwriting technique. With matchsticks, a growing pattern that increases by a constant unit was created and presented to the teachers as a problem-posing situation. We analyzed the instructional flows in 50 scripts,…
