Australian-born students are influenced by their industry experience when enroling in…

Despite the proliferation of graduate programs in universities around the world, there are limited numbers of studies that have evaluated the current status of these programs. This paper attempts to examine the assessments of graduate students of their programs and of the graduate education process. A survey method was adopted and conducted with a…

Background: Speech-language pathologists often multitask in order to be efficient with their commonly large caseloads. In stuttering assessment, multitasking often involves collecting multiple measures simultaneously. Aims: The present study sought to determine reliability when collecting multiple measures simultaneously versus individually.…

The aim is to describe special education teacher students' learning in the field of tension between informal learning during day-to-day work and formal university education. From the theoretical framework of Wenger-Trayner and Wenger-Trayner, we perceive the students as moving on a learning trajectory through a landscape of practice. The students…

Online education has been experiencing steadily increasing enrollment rates and it is therefore vital to study student and institutional factors related to dropout risk for online students. Currently, prior research examining this rapidly developing field is limited. With online graduate programs experiencing continuous growth in enrollment rates,…

There is consensus in the literature that peer learning is beneficial for student content learning as well as affective response to courses. Peer learning methods are used frequently in large science and math courses and often show positive outcomes from all participants. Peer learning programs in undergraduate science education rarely distinguish…
