This article outlines the redesign of an undergraduate digital learning theories course, integrating scenario-based learning (SBL) and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles. The article incorporates scenario-based instruction using Articulate Rise 360, focusing on real-world challenges to enhance learner engagement and applicability. This…

Adjuncts continue to be an integral part of higher education; however, they are rarely onboarded at higher education institutions. Onboarding involves systematically introducing a new employee to an organization's values, processes, and procedures. For adjuncts, they also need formalized training in pedagogy. Without onboarding adjuncts, higher…

Purpose: This study reports on changes made within the study, plan, teach and reflect steps of lesson study with pre-service teachers who were learning to teach within a disciplinary literacy course. Design/methodology/approach: Using methods associated with formative experiments and design-based research, this study gathered data over four…

Recent advancements in technology have revolutionized various fields, including architecture education. However, studies exploring immersive realities in architectural design studios remain limited. This research addresses this gap by conducting a pilot study at the Architectural Engineering Intermediate Design Studio, which thoroughly explores…

Designers are always pursuing design with suitable emotions. Effective emotional fusion not only produces a good user experience but also extends the product lifecycle. The decoding of design emotion and the use of design emotion language should run through the entire design process. In this study, we propose a new emotion-embedded design flow…

Many things can influence a student's success in a course. Previous research has shown that students are more successful when they complete the course reading, but students may not always comply with reading requirements for multiple reasons, such as other time pressures or financial costs. Issues with reading requirements may be compounded if an…

Beliefs and assumptions appear in many guises in applied linguistic designs. They illustrate the connections among technical life and the certitudinal sphere. On the norm side, these certitudinal anticipations appeal to designs that are trustworthy. Technical subjects are inspired by steadfastness and commitment to designing credible language…

Contemporary society is characterized by diversity and intricacy, necessitating more meaningful learning experiences. To meet these evolving needs, the incorporation of computational systems into education must acknowledge the distinctive characteristics of learners. Therefore, we conducted a Systematic Mapping Study (SMS) to investigate…

Designs have a technical range, specified by the conditions that guide their development. Such analogical spatial moments in the technical give rise to the elementary applied linguistic concept of technical extension or continuity on both the norm side and factual side. Examples are the dimensionality and internal coherence of a designed…

The interpretability of technical processes depends conceptually on lingual analogies. In analyzing the meaningfulness of applied linguistic designs, this chapter examines how technical design anticipates the expressive dimension of experience. Designs are articulated in the form of a blueprint for each language solution. The specifications in the…

Flexible learning addresses students' needs for more flexibility and autonomy in shaping their learning process, and is often realised through online technologies in a blended learning design. While higher education institutions are increasingly considering replacing classroom time and offering more blended learning, current research is limited…

The use of augmented reality games (ARGs) in education has gained increased attention from curriculum developers, teachers, and researchers in the past decade. Research findings show that ARGs can promote meaningful learning environments that foster key competences for the 21st century. This paper presents the design process of…

This article undertakes a critical appraisal of learning design and its relation to ethical ideas of care. We give an account of three personae of near future learning designers, developed using speculative methods, seeded with real-world data comprising job advertisements and validated with learning designers. The personae illustrate conflicts…

This paper describes the course design and evaluation results for an online continuing education program designed for working engineers. Engineering educators have long recognized the value of reducing the gap between the classroom and work environments. Implementing experiential learning in the undergraduate classroom brings much needed context…

Sketching is considered a helpful activity in STEM design and education. Scholars have argued for including children in designing technology as it has been found to improve product design and leads to social and cognitive benefits for children. However, little is known about children's learning and sketching experiences when participating in…
