Despite the utility of cognitive interviews, very few studies report on the practical application of this survey design procedure. Likewise, very few studies querying perceptions of honors education incorporate valid survey items that reflect the views of students of color who are eligible yet opt out of participation. We respond to these areas of…

In response to the essential need for digital competences in education, a 3-year Design-Based Research project was conducted to prepare pre-service mathematics and science teachers for the demands of teaching in the digital age. Over three design cycles, an evidence-based course design for teaching and learning with and about digital media was…

Many studies have investigated students' attitudes toward engineering (ATE), but few have examined the changes in attitudes after attending an engineering design curriculum. This study analyzes these attitudinal changes in students attending an engineering-focused science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (EF-STEM) curriculum and…

Purpose: The purpose of this qualitative, single-case study was to explore the development of Jamaica's maritime education and training (MET) curriculum within the local education context. In this research, the story of the development and sustainability of the local MET curriculum in its 40-year journey from 1980 to present (post 2020), as…

This article explores the pedagogical orientations of four K-5 teachers who participated in four years of monthly STEAM professional development involving STEM-based artmaking and emergent curriculum design with professional artists. This narrative inquiry captures how the teachers made meaning of their experiences. Interviews were analyzed and…

There is an increasing call to include Artificial Intelligence (AI) competencies in academic disciplines such as Public Administration, which are not obviously related to Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). However, the literature on the integration of AI in non-STEM curricula in South African higher education institutions…

Education is undergoing a fundamental transformation, necessitated and made possible by contemporary technology, notably Artificial Intelligence. Central to this transformation is the realisation that the post primary learners will lead in terms of what each will study, how, where, when and to what purpose. This will entail a refocussed and…

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…

The aim of this study is to reveal the relationship between Turkish teaching and e-learning, m-learning and u-learning in the program dimension. The research was carried out according to the interpretative paradigm. In this study, which was designed according to the qualitative research method, document analysis was used as a data collection…

This article presents an instrumental case study of how community college faculty engages in academic planning in the wake of curricular policy reform, and tensions between the perspectives of faculty from 2- and 4-year institutions. Implications of these dynamics are discussed with a focus on advice for those leading curricular change projects in…

In this study, the curricula of citizenship, democracy and human rights developed from 1926 to 2018 were examined in depth with the aim of determining changes, transformations and developments. As a qualitative study based on document analysis, the curricula were chronologically named as the 1926 and 1936 Homeland Knowledge Curriculum, the 1948…

Large, multisection laboratory courses are particularly challenging when managing grading with as many as 35 teaching assistants (TAs). Traditional grading systems using point-based rubrics lead to significant variations in how individual TAs grade, which necessitates the use of curving across laboratory sections. Final grade uncertainty…
