The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine the effectiveness of attending the IDEAcon Conference virtually compared to attending the conference in-person. The study was conducted by surveying educators who attended both the IDEAcon conference in 2020, which was in person, and IDEAcon 2021 which was virtual. Using a Likert-like online…

Project-based learning (PBL) offers an ideal approach for cultivating a robust STEM workforce, empowering students to actively construct their knowledge. This process has the potential to enhance science identity and self-efficacy. Furthermore, because PBL is inherently collaborative, it fosters the development of 21st-century skills, many of…

Student reflection can take on various roles, such as evaluating one's progress, setting and evaluating goals, regularly reviewing one's progress, giving and receiving constructive support and feedback, and effectively communicating and assessing one's learning and experiences (Webb & Scoular (2011). Research indicates that facilitating…

Historically, high levels of self-reported stress, anxiety, and depression are quite common among STEM students. Unfortunately, after multiple semesters of disrupted education due to COVID-19, these mental struggles among students, especially first-year (freshmen) undergraduate engineering students, have only been exacerbated. To mitigate these…

A cooperative-learning jigsaw-style activity was developed to create opportunities for introductory organic chemistry students to discuss and decipher [superscript 1]H NMR spectra. Students cooperatively interpreted spectra that contained both pure and mixed solvents, building consensus through explanation and argumentation on what each spectrum…

The purpose of this article is to introduce a lesson fondly referred to as the 'Lego Shop' lesson. It stands out as not only the most engaging lesson we've conducted but is also highly adaptable to accommodate a diverse range of learners. Successfully implemented across all year levels, from Foundation to Year 6, this lesson has proven to be…

This article describes a one semester Professional Development for Teaching (PDT) seminar designed for mathematics Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) that focuses on the implementation of active-learning techniques. The PDT seminar models active-learning strategies so GTAs have experiences to draw on when teaching undergraduate classes. A…

Sensory needs are being recognised as a vital part of learning, development and engagement within the classroom and are being used more often to make education both accessible and fun. To harness the full potential of sensory supports, using these strategies correctly is key! This is the essential guide to using sensory strategies successfully…

According to Jennifer Billman, western evaluation bias against indigenous thinking is due to ontological incompetence. If so, the solution she offers (a highly abstract list of criteria) is inadequate since it fails to address let alone resolve a wide range of philosophical dilemmas at the intersection of logic and ontology. Furthermore, it fails…

Social Emotional skills are utilized in everyday life. Social and emotional learning (SEL) helps students (even adults) thrive within school and life outside of school. In many schools, Social Emotional Learning (SEL) is the foundation of their curriculum. Social emotional learning is a commonly used teaching method within public and private…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze reported good institutional responsible research and innovation (RRI) practices from an organizational and learning perspective to discuss the usefulness of RRI as a broad umbrella concept. Design/methodology/approach: This study connects neo-institutional and translation accounts of diffusion to…

This paper aims to provide evidence on whether the specialization of schools in certain teaching strategies contributes to promoting student skills. Specifically, we will focus on comparing those that make intensive use of innovative practices with those specialized in the use of traditional methodologies. By employing propensity score matching…

Purpose: The purpose of this study aims to compare the academic performance and types of learning strategies used by APEL and regular entry undergraduates. It also explored the relationship between the academic performance and the types of learning strategies utilised by these two groups of undergraduate. Design/methodology/approach: This…

Although self-regulation is an important feature related to students' study success as reflected in higher grades and less academic course delay, little is known about the role of self-regulation in blended learning environments in higher education. For this review, we analysed 21 studies in which self-regulation strategies were taught in the…
