Ergonomic risk factors in the workplace can result in nonfatal injuries among construction workers, leading to absenteeism, project delays, and reduced organizational productivity. Previous studies have highlighted a lack of knowledge about ergonomics among construction practitioners, hindering effective strategies. This knowledge gap can be…

As a high school history teacher, author Dave Marshall integrated music more and more into his lessons over the years, yielding powerful results. Early in his career, this was done by playing a relevant song to start class--perhaps Edwin Starr's "War," before studying anti-Vietnam protests. Later, the author built full lessons around…

This handbook presents the state-of-the art scholarship on theoretical frames, mathematical content, learning environments, pedagogic practices, teacher professional learning, and policy issues related to the development and use of digital resources in mathematics education. With the advent of more and more open access digital resources, teachers…

Purpose: The aim of this article is to present a systematic review of empirical research developed in the field of citizenship education in teacher education. Design/methodology/approach: This study performs a systematic review, descriptive and critical in nature, of 62 studies present in the Web of Sciences and Scopus after a comprehensive…

The aim of this autoethnography is to explore caring strategies for use in the teaching of sensitive and controversial issues in higher education. The text discusses a situation in which I received negative feedback on my teaching strategies during a session about sexually abused boys and men at an institution of higher education in Norway.…

Scholars have analyzed debates about controversial faculty speech inside and outside of the classroom, but none have paid close attention to the facet of academic freedom related to professors' decisions about daily teaching methods. This omission, along with obstacles to enacting pedagogical norms, has caused the scholarly community to overlook…

A substantial amount of media comparison research has been conducted in the last decade to investigate whether students learn Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) content better in immersive virtual reality (IVR) or more traditional learning environments. However, a thorough review of the design and implementation of…

This short review examines Chapter 5 of Sarah M. Stitzlein's "Teaching Honesty in a Populist Era: Emphasizing Truth in the Education of Citizens," concentrating on "The Role of Honesty in Teaching About Controversial Issues." Emphasizing what I call "zetetic avoidance creep" (ZAC), the review explores how teachers may…

Teaching models are essential to provide nursing students with efficient ways to learn. One such model of teaching is the Backward Design (BWD). The aim of BWD is to recognize desired outcomes and then have the student work backward to draw on what was done to reach the desired outcome. BWD facilitates the understanding of a concept by using…

The purpose of this scoping review was to identify, review, and map the concept of experiential learning in counselor education. The review provides an overview of the types of studies, the theoretical positioning, definitions, and positionality of experiential learning in counselor education. The study includes an overview of N = 38 studies that…

Mathematical understanding in early childhood lays the foundation for children's later academic achievement, yet little is known about individual differences in U.S. early childhood educators' mathematics instruction in preschool classrooms. The present study explored the range of intentional mathematics instruction occurring in early childhood…

This study examines the effectiveness of ICT training programmes for academics at selected universities in Africa, specifically in Cameroon, Nigeria, and South Africa. Using a qualitative approach, we conducted semi-structured interviews with five ICT trainers and three trainees to better understand their experiences. The findings highlight both…

This study aimed to contribute to the substantial body of research on critical thinking (CT) interventions by determining whether the effectiveness of two CT interventions (generic and infusion) varied according to students' baseline CT levels. Using a quasi-experimental design, we collected data from two universities, with 167 participants from…

In recent years, there has been a rise in recognition of the need for computing education to bridge the gap between academia and industry. In addition, educational researchers are also interested in increasing student engagement by grounding learning experiences in real-life concerns, community issues, or personal interests. Unfortunately,…

In this participatory research, two pre-service teachers (PSTs) and a mathematics teacher educator (MTE) collaboratively analyzed multiple voices that influence syllabi from elementary mathematics teaching methods courses. Findings suggest syllabi fall along a continuum from harmonious to dissonant orchestration of the voices of past and present…
