Nguyen Hoang Thuan; Pedro Antunes – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2024
Design thinking dispositions are essential for students to understand why design thinking knowledge should be applied to perform specific tasks. However, few studies are focused on teaching design thinking dispositions. This study proposes a conceptual model that supports teaching design thinking dispositions to address this gap. The model was…

Neumuller, Seth – Journal of Economic Education, 2023
The author of this article demonstrates how the unified approach to answering economic questions employed in modern quantitative macroeconomics research can be taught to undergraduate students using the Solow model. Through an application to post-WWII Japan, students get hands-on experience with (1) documenting empirical facts, (2) developing a…

Jacob E. Hansen; Jonathan A. Chickering; Amy J. Sullivan; Zachary E. Stelter – Advances in Physiology Education, 2025
Models that illustrate renal fluid dynamics are scarce within the secondary and postsecondary landscape. This work summarizes the efforts to build a rudimentary model renal corpuscle (MRC) that can be employed in a problem-based learning exercise or demonstration to teach basic principles of renal physiology to secondary students or…

Thin-Yin Leong; Nang-Laik Ma – INFORMS Transactions on Education, 2024
This paper develops a spreadsheet simulation methodology for teaching simulation and performance analysis of priority queues with multiple servers, without resorting to macros, add-ins, or array formula. The approach is made possible by a "single overtaking" simplifying assumption under which any lower-priority customer may be passed in…

Alexia Micallef; Philip M. Newton – Teaching of Psychology, 2024
Background: Prior research suggests that the teaching of abstract concepts can be enhanced by the use of concrete examples, but there are few controlled studies. Objective: To replicate key findings from experiment one from Rawson et al. (2015). Method: Experiment participants studied definitions of abstract concepts from psychology, either with…

Huang, Yan; Pei, Jinhong; Wang, Junmei; Li, Xueqing; Li, Yuna – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
Biochemistry is an important professional course to undergraduates majoring in rehabilitation therapy in medical colleges and universities. To deepen students' understanding of the taught content, enhance their application ability and cultivate their high-level thinking ability, we investigated the effect of integration of the nine-grid thinking…

Rafael Amador-Rodri´guez; Daniel Insuasty; Maximiliano Me´ndez-Lo´pez; Edgar Ma´rquez; Natalia Ospina-Quintero – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
This research aimed to use students' modeling processes as a means of scientific inquiry. Students constructed models to explain the interactions between felodipine R and S and protein. The approach encouraged active student participation in molecular interaction modeling and offered students a "model-based teaching" experience for…

Gerit Wagner; Laureen Thurner – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2025
Git, as the leading version-control system, is frequently employed by software developers, digital product managers, and knowledge workers. Information systems (IS) students aspiring to fill software engineering, management, or research positions would therefore benefit from familiarity with Git. However, teaching Git effectively can be…

Norman T. Sheehan; Kenneth A. Fox; Mark Klassen; Ganesh Vaidyanathan – Accounting Education, 2024
Whether corporations voluntarily reduce their negative impacts on the environment and society depends upon management advocacy. As future corporate leaders, accounting students will have a critical advocacy role, but they have been taught that shareholder value should not be sacrificed to reduce the externalized environmental and social costs…

Seth, Arjit; Redonnet, Stephane; Liem, Rhea P. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2023
Contribution: A multidisciplinary computational framework to support undergraduate engineering education is introduced. It is posed as an open-source tool that students can use to understand and apply computational methods commonly required in engineering problems. Background: This framework development is motivated by past experiences of teaching…

Anping Yu; Zheng Xu – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2024
Landscape garden design is an important design foundation course for undergraduate students of landscape architecture in China, but the current classroom teaching has the problem of limited spatial dimension of the course. This paper proposes a virtual scene model construction method through the computer software with the creation of the need to…

Júlio Panzera-Gonçalves; Cleida Aparecida Oliveira – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
Learning Cell Biology is challenging for both sighted and visually impaired students due to its abstract nature and reliance on bidimensional depictions in textbooks, which often fail to capture the biological complexity of cell structures and functions. To implement inclusive learning environments and address the shortage of learning materials…

Scaletti, Carla; Rickard, Meredith M.; Hebel, Kurt J.; Pogorelov, Taras V.; Taylor, Stephen A.; Gruebele, Martin – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
The protein folding reaction is one of the most important chemical reactions in the human body. Yet, despite its importance, it is sometimes omitted from undergraduate courses due to the challenging nature of some of the underlying concepts. To help make key concepts of the protein folding reaction accessible to our undergraduate students, we…

Lena Maleševic Perovic – Journal of Economic Education, 2024
The author of this article provides an example of how one might incorporate behavioral economics into teaching macroeconomics or labor economics at an undergraduate level. The focus is on two macroeconomic concepts--wage determination and the Phillips curve--and shows that the implications and conclusions of both models differ from their textbook…
