Today's school students are faced with complex and harmful global challenges that they will need to address. The ability to think critically and creatively, to work in interdisciplinary teams and to understand the importance of a healthy planet for all life will be key to success. Education, including school education, has a major role in helping…

Flipped learning (FL) has positive effects on the teaching-learning process. Nevertheless, and given that it is a relatively new methodology, it still raises some misgivings. This work aims to highlight the potential of FL by the analysis of academic results in a subject in higher engineering education and, thus, to contribute to overcome possible…

Currently, students tend to be less innovative and creative in learning and its implementation in everyday life. Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is a learning strategy oriented towards contextual problem solving to find solutions based on the experiences of students so that they can be more creative and innovative. This research aims to reveal how…

In this qualitative case study, we implemented an anti-oppressive, social justice curriculum in a school counseling internship course and then explored its impact on participants (N = 3) as school counseling students and full-time school counselors. We identified 11 themes that reflect how the curriculum impacted participants as students and…

The surest way to improve the quality of education for the greatest number of students is through general education, as all students must complete their institution's general education requirements. Unfortunately, the general education programs at too many institutions are poorly designed and fail to give students a coherent grounding in essential…

Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR; also referred to as Responsible and Ethical Conduct of Research) courses are required for students funded by NIH training grants or NSF awards. Most university RCR courses closely follow the list of topics described by the NSF/NIH and use the low-effort, distributed teaching model described by the NIH.…

Using existing research on digital citizenship education (DCE), postdigital theory, and "The New Zealand Curriculum (NZC)," this article indicates how schools and teachers can make links between curriculum and a postdigital interpretation of DCE. Although the view of DCE as being cross-curricular presents opportunities to integrate DCE…

This study set out to corroborate or disprove an unambiguous phenomenon found in scholarly literature, which is synthesized as follows: "Contemporary undergraduate STEM curriculum content is inadequate to fully prepare graduates for STEM industry's real-world technical performance expectations." However, this stylized fact appears…

Given the internationalization of higher education and the increasingly diversifying student population in higher education institutions worldwide, it is critical to reevaluate the teaching and learning environment in higher education classrooms. Although inclusion and inclusive pedagogy emerged as essential orientations in education, gaps in…

The series of volumes on curriculum analysis synthesise rich, mixed-methods data collected from a variety of sources and stakeholders. Working methods and sources of information include: Reviews of existing research, Policy survey on curriculum redesign (PQC), Curriculum content mapping (CCM), Mathematic Currriculum Document Analysis (MCDA),…

A well-noted scholar in curriculum Joseph Schwab claimed that the field of curriculum in the US was in a state of decline by unexamined and mistaken reliance on theory specially in the 1960s. The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the Ethiopian practical experiences of curriculum development and implementation context with respect to…

Background: This paper reports on a study that analyzed the Diploma in Secondary Education (DSE) curriculum in Tanzania to establish its competency-based education (CBE) attributes. The attributes of the curriculum and whether these reflect the basic principles of CBE are critical to successful implementation at the classroom level. Methods: A…

In this article, Theo Woods shares the experience of one history department as they embarked on a substantial process of curriculum review and development. The department sought to address concerns that the range of history taught in their school, across the full seven years of students' secondary experience, was too 'traditional, White and…

Ten years have passed since the first meetings of Arts advisors to start identifying the priorities and approaches that the Arts may take when formalised into a national curriculum structure. Now the time has come for reviewing the past to inform the future. Now is the time for reviewing, interrogating and challenging the "Australian…

This study developed a complexometric titration simulation program based on LabVIEW. With built-in approximation and rigorous algorithms, the program can easily simulate and plot a single or a group of complexometric titration curves. On the basis of this program, we developed and implemented an online course to guide undergraduates to (i) compare…
