Beth Archer-Kuhn; Natalie Beltrano; Juyan Wang; Sahar Esmaeili – Journal of Teaching in Social Work, 2025
This paper reflects the results from a 3-year quantitative study in higher education on inquiry-based learning (IBL). Utilizing primary data collection in a quasi-experimental survey, we examined the impact of IBL on six cohorts of undergraduate students. We aimed to answer our main research question: Can IBL be an effective pedagogy that helps…

Schot, Willemijn D.; Hegeman, Maria A.; Broeke, Toine; Valentijn, Floris A.; Meijerman, Irma; Prins, Frans J.; Dictus, Wim J. A. G.; Bovenschen, Niels – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Optimal integration of education and ongoing faculty research in many undergraduate science programs is limited to the capstone project. Here, we aimed to develop a novel course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) in synergy with ongoing faculty research. This 10-week course called Biomedical Research Lab is embedded in the curriculum…

Colin D. McClure; Matthew Hudson; Kieran Higgins – Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagement, 2024
Capstone projects provide key learning opportunities for STEM undergraduates to consolidate knowledge gained over the life of their degree. These projects typically reflect lab- or fieldwork-based research, which can exclude students who do not wish to pursue these career avenues. Here we deployed school engagement projects (SEPs) as an…

Validating an Individual Innovation Competence Assessment Tool for University-Industry Collaboration
Hero, Laura-Maija; Pitkäjärvi, Marianne; Matinheikki-Kokko, Kaija – Industry and Higher Education, 2021
University-industry collaboration produces networks that may be capable of innovations, such as novel products and services. The collaboration projects also need to benefit student learning, yet teachers have little clarity with regard to innovation competence development. Individual innovation competence is a set of personal characteristics,…

Tezcan, Natarsha; Durakovic, Iva; Lloyd, Eva; D'arcy, Sing – International Journal of Work-Integrated Learning, 2020
COVID-19 calls for new approaches and frameworks for the delivery of work-integrated learning (WIL). Standalone WIL opportunities are also increasingly difficult to realize, with the current economic climate limiting industry resources available for placements and WIL partnerships. The hybridized WIL model presented in this paper thus proposes the…
