Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) is embarking on an educational innovation program called SUTD campusX to support its future of education. SUTD campusX aims to innovate new educational models, technology tools, and pedagogies for a new form of learning called "Cyber-Physical Learning", where the concept is that both…

Online communities of practice (online CoP) have emerged as a viable method for teacher professional development regarding the emphasis on teacher networks for effective professional development and the elimination of some restrictions with online learning. Moreover, most technology integration studies examine teacher-centered technology…

There is currently limited investigation of readers' comprehension of AI simplified text from the perspective of educators, but such research can help to more effectively address the specific needs and perspectives of language teachers and learners regarding the comprehensibility of AI simplified text. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to…

The study applied the mixed-methods research design. The quantitative data were collected from questionnaire surveys with students and teachers. The qualitative information was collected from…

Photonics is an emerging field of science and technology that is effective in providing sustainable and innovative solutions to twenty-first century problems. Science education includes topics related to light. However, photonics is not yet included in most school curricula as a subject within the domain of science and technology to be presented…

This article contributes to ongoing discussions regarding the evolution of the basic communication course. The authors detail the multi-year process of redesigning their institution's basic communication course, now centered on multimodal communication, and share insights from its implementation. Emphasizing the need to respond to increased…

The notion of wild pedagogies entreats teachers to act -- to wild pedagogies -- by acknowledging that more than a singular will characterizes pedagogical situations. Wilding pedagogies requires going beyond ideas of teacher-centred and student-centred pedagogies to encompass nature-centred pedagogies: recognizing the self-will of wider nature. In…

This pilot study describes a nascent first-year honors colloquia series using human-centered design (HCD). An interdisciplinary team of instructors redesigned the course with the intention of engaging the whole student in transformative learning and creating a curriculum that addresses problems and opportunities focused on the needs, contexts,…

Contribution: This article explored blended learning by implementing a student-centered teaching method based on the flipped classroom and small private online course (SPOC). The impact of general online learning behavior on student performance was analyzed. This work is practical and provides enlightenment for learning analysis and individualized…

Background: Employing High Impact Practices (HIPs) in the curriculum will keep the students engaged and will boost their learning outcomes. Study Aim: Explore the students' feedback on two HIPs practices and measure the impact of the studied HIPs on the course's outcomes. Methodology: Two HIPs strategies were applied to the graduate students of an…

Over the past 9 years, we have implemented, developed, and refined a novel student-centered teaching method called Extreme Apprenticeship in university mathematics context. In this paper, we report the theoretical orientation behind the method, as well as its practical implementation. We also reflect on our experiences gained from using it in our…

Most studies on inquiry have focused on student outcomes, teachers' conceptions of inquiry, implementation of inquiry in science classrooms, and inquiry coverage in science textbooks. Little is known about the nature of inquiry representation in science practitioner journals that serve as sources of inquiry science activities for many science…

The idea that games impact learning is not new to pedagogy. Within the last decade, there has been an increased use of games for higher education, social engagement, marketing, and business training. When used within a higher education setting, a gamification system does not operate within a vacuum, but rather is imbued with and embedded in the…

Student-centered teaching has become increasingly common in higher education as researchers have demonstrated its efficacy in recent decades. Herein, we hope to establish an efficient problem-based learning (PBL) method, which can help upper-division students learn organic chemistry content by combining teaching materials, experimental literature,…

In today's era of rapid change, lifelong learning is one of the most important ways for individuals to keep up with social, cultural, economic and technological developments.
