Literature on teachers' transformative social-emotional learning (TSEL) is emerging and focuses on improving teachers' competency in delivering and implementing equity-focused SEL among students. Our study is a scoping review aiming to understand the characteristics of existing literature regarding teachers' TSEL, identify gaps, and discuss future…

We present an alternative to the traditional classroom lecture on the topics of metabolic scaling, allometric relationships between metabolic rate (MR) and body size, and reasons for rejecting Rubner's surface "law," concepts that students have described as challenging, counterintuitive, and/or mathematical. In groups, students work with…

Contribution: An innovative teaching experience carried out at the University of Trento using team-based learning (TBL) in a large computer networks class. The impact of TBL on the students' learning and satisfaction was investigated. Background: Active learning pedagogies, including TBL, play an important role in enhancing higher-order cognitive…

The Catholic Church is the oldest religious institution in the West and the biggest Christian denomination in Australia. Its success is partly due to its sustained efforts to supply missionaries across the globe. While the traditional missionary paradigm involved Europe-born religious workers being sent to colonies, this flow has been reversed in…

Given that the contextual interference (CI) phenomenon is one of the most extensively studied and debated topics in motor learning--featured prominently in scientific literature, textbooks, and practitioner guides--it is unsurprising that recent meta-analyses on the topic have generated critical discussion and contrasting interpretations. This…

This article addresses the transformative potential of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimize human potential by making education more efficient and effective. We describe a new teaching method called "Dynamic Personalized Learning." In this method, AI dynamically provides feedback and adjusts the level and pace of…

The purpose of this study was to identify factors linked with e-learning utilization. This empirical study (N = 381) was conducted in partnership with a German bank and measured e-learning utilization as the degree to which participants thoroughly completed an extensive number of automatically provided e-learning courses on new banking software.…

The study investigates how the 2×2 configuration of homogeneous and heterogeneous distributions of extraversion and prior knowledge influences group outcomes, including satisfaction, performance, and stability. Based on the standard deviation of extraversion and prior knowledge, groups were established to test experimentally, what form of grouping…

The paradigm shifts towards synchronous hybrid instruction in higher education, influenced in part by the impact of the post-COVID-19 pandemic and initiatives such as Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL), underscores the need for a comprehensive redesign of digital interactive learning environments. This transformation necessitates…

This study explores the influence of Learning Management System (LMS) course site design on student failure and withdrawal rates (DFW) in undergraduate courses in a residential hybrid educational context. We used multiple linear regression analysis to explore the interactions between course-level DFW, enrollment, student satisfaction, and counts…

In a literary studies-focused Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) project, students?from Catalonia, Spain and the U.S. experienced holistic learning activities that hinged experiential analysis and interpretation practice to urgent problems of social and economic instability. By using the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to…

Courses: This paper presents a course design that aims to stimulate student ownership of learning. It was developed for a semester-long undergraduate course in political communication, but it is equally suitable for courses at graduate level and on other topics. The course design will unfold its potential best in classes with up to 30 students.…

This qualitative phenomenological study aimed to explore middle school students' perceptions of using the school-based cooperative problem-based learning (SB-CPBL) approach in learning science. The study examined how SB-CPBL differs from the students' usual learning, how the new approach affects their learning process and the main challenges of…

Hands-on experience is an essential part of project management education. We researched to determine whether our practical seminars organized as part of an undergraduate project management course provide the expected learning experience consistent with current project management practice. We organized two practical seminars for students in four…

This study investigated the relationship among e-learning readiness, learning engagement, and learning performance of preservice teachers in HyFlex learning environments. To identify the causal relationship, data collected from 776 preservice teachers at four universities in the Philippines were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM).…
