The first MOOC course on geo-informatics, 'maps and the geospatial revolution' was provided as video materials by Penn State in July 2013, since then, the number of geo-informatics MOOC courses has increased significantly (Robinson et al., 2015). This study uses the edX geo-informatics course model as the origin of the experimental results to…

Objective: Although treatment research has relied upon group-based methods to understand treatment response, these methods often are unable to detect intraindividual changes in behavior. Single case designs using time series analyses, in contrast, may be ideal for examining intraindividual variability in treatment response over time. The current…

UNESCO strategies, including the 2006 Road Map for Arts Education, the 2010 Seoul Agenda for Arts Education and the 2024 Framework for Culture and Arts Education, highlight a persistent concern regarding the insufficient emphasis on arts education competencies among pre-service teachers and the challenge of allocating adequate curriculum time in…

Background: This study explored the factors that influence the balance between academic integrity and the effective use of GenAI tools in higher education. It focused on the role of institutional guidelines in enhancing the responsible use of GenAI technologies to enhance academic integrity. Objectives: The study was theoretically grounded in the…

This book illustrates how young people engage with pop culture--music, TV, films, fashion, dance, video games, memes, and digital content in its many forms--and outlines lessons that support them in engaging more actively, critically, and strategically. Part One draws on qualitative research with young people, as well as close analyses of pop…

Engaging students in hands-on engineering design-based instruction as called for in national science, and technology and engineering (T&E) education standards in the United States (U.S.) poses inherent hazards and risks that science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) educators must be adequately prepared to address. Helping…

The exposure of scientific scandals and the increase of dubious research practices have generated a stream of studies on Questionable Research Practices (QRPs), such as failure to acknowledge co-authors, selective presentation of findings, or removal of data not supporting desired outcomes. In contrast to high-profile fraud cases, QRPs can be…

In digitalized learning processes, learning analytics (LA) can help teachers make pedagogically sound decisions and support pupils' self-regulated learning (SRL). However, research on the role of the pedagogical dimensions of learning design (LD) in influencing the possibilities of LA remains scarce. Primary school presents a unique LA context…

Many quality assurance frameworks are in need of modification and evaluation before they can support the alignment of inclusive course design and pedagogies in institutions of higher education (IHEs). This study aimed to add inclusive practices in an open-source rubric, OpenSUNY Course Quality Review (OSCQR) rubric. Guided by the Universal Design…

Socio-Emotional Learning (SEL) and Socio-Emotional Competence (SEC) are becoming increasingly essential for holistic education, helping learners to develop empathy, self-awareness, and the skill of responsible decision-making. As their relevance continues to grow globally, there is an urgent need to understand how these dimensions are being…

This research aims to examine the competencies of pre-service science teachers in designing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) activities and the challenges they encounter in this process. The study was carried out using phenomenology, one of the qualitative research designs. A total of 23 second-year pre-service science teachers…

Outlining a process approach, this book offers a theoretical and pedagogical framework for how to teach user experience (UX) from a technical and professional communication (TPC) perspective. Recognizing that pedagogy is local to an institution, context, and community, the collection includes teaching cases and stories that demonstrate how…

The popularity of ChatGPT raises concerns about the impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) on higher education. While past research explored how ChatGPT, a widely recognized text-based generative AI, can improve productivity and efficiency in education, little is yet known about its impact on course design. Utilizing Bloom's taxonomy and Biggs'…

Micro-inquiries are a streamlined adaptation of the Inquiry Design Model (IDM) and C3 Framework that break down rich, meaningful content and skill explorations into short lessons that teachers can include in "less" than a single lesson. Recognizing that full IDM implementations can be time-consuming and challenging for elementary…

"Learning to See" is an engaging and profound account of how professional artists and designers create and how they teach others to do it. Keith Sawyer, a leading creativity researcher, spent over ten years interviewing a hundred professors who've taught in 50 different colleges, universities, and institutes. He also interviewed students…
