Definitions and understandings of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), scholarly teaching, and research are multiple and often conflicting. Reflecting on Boyer's intention for academic work to be recognised as overlapping and interconnected, in this paper we examine some of the commonly assumed models of Boyer's scholarship of teaching…

The role of school psychologists in Italy is undefined and insufficiently integrated into their inclusive education system. Unlike in countries like the United States, where school psychology is a well-established profession, Italian school psychologists receive limited training and primarily engage in direct interventions, such as interviews and…

In this paper, we explore the learning and teaching of a maritime simulation programme to understand its deep learning elements. We followed the mixed methods approach and collected student perception data from a maritime school, situated within a UK university, using reflection-based survey (n = 112) and three focus groups with eleven students.…

Background: Embedded research involves co-locating researchers within non-academic organisations to better link research and practice. Embedded research initiatives are often complex and emergent with a range of underlying intents, structures and processes. This can create tensions within initiatives and contributes to ongoing uncertainty about…

Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have disrupted assessment practices within the higher education sector. The efficacy of existing assessment approaches is under reexamination with the introduction of generative AI's ability to generate human-like text. Simultaneously, there are calls to integrate generative AI into…

"Developmentally Appropriate Curriculum" emphasizes the how, what and why of curriculum development to help you create the most effective programs for young children ages 3 through 8. It's an all-in-one guide that brings together everything pre-service teachers need to implement an integrated, developmental approach to curriculum-based…

The problem of enactment describes a teacher's inability to translate effective theories of teaching into practice. This is common for student-teachers, and invariably results in instructional practices that are ineffective and inconsistent with their beliefs. The motivation for this study was based on the observation that student-teachers move…

Workplace learning is fundamental in contextualizing theoretical concepts into practice, making it opportune for professionals to learn emerging concepts. With genomic testing transitioning from the research space into healthcare, there are more opportunities to engage with workplace learning related to genomic medicine. We therefore aimed to…

The relationship between practice-based teacher education (PBTE) and teacher education oriented toward social justice (SJTE) has been debated by teacher educators and researchers for some time, and still today the contention persists. Many teacher educators have a goal of supporting preservice teachers (PSTs) enact instructional practices that are…

The fields of quantitative and covariational reasoning boast a wide range of powerful theoretical tools, which are described carefully in the literature. Less frequent and explicit attention, however, has been paid to writing down detailed, practical guidance for operationalizing these theoretical constructs. Some guidance is provided by…

Learning Analytics are an academic field with promising usage scenarios for many educational domains. At the same time, learning analytics come with threats such as the amplification of historically grown inequalities. A range of general guidelines for more equity-focused learning analytics have been proposed but fail to provide sufficiently clear…

The development of multidisciplinary education requires people to communicate, learn, and design beyond the boundaries of their own domains. In this research, an education design framework is developed to facilitate and support university teachers in multidisciplinary educational design. In addition, it serves as an aid to potentially transform…

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) provides guidance and expectations to state education agencies. We examined the intersection of improvement science and ESSA through a qualitative analysis of the state guidance documents. Utilizing six principles of improvement as a conceptual framework, we identified three themes: improvement as an outcome;…

The starting assumption of this paper is that the management scholar-practitioner does not exist as a stable distinct category. Rather, scholarly practice may be better understood as the on-going entanglements between scholarly insight and practitioner knowledge. The learning that occurs when practitioners transition to scholarly-practititioners…

This study examined how practicing instructional designers manage cognitive load in a standardized scenario as they select and implement instructional strategies, message design, content sequencing, delivery medium, and technology within various domains with learners at different levels of expertise. The study employed a quasi-experimental, mixed…
