Higher Education Institutions are increasingly facing challenges in designing courses that enable students to develop the transdisciplinary knowledge, skills and understanding needed to engage with complex 'wicked' problems. This article reports on a conceptual framework for STEAM in Higher Education (HE), in which design thinking is interwoven…

A dyadic supervision model is traditionally used to support graduate students throughout their studies. While this model has many advantages, it can sometimes be insufficient. Graduate students report a need for spaces where they can discuss their projects, share experiences, and gain practical information on writing or other milestones in their…

This quantitative study aimed to understand the association between five different types of face-to-face support from institutional agents and the academic progress of international students in STEM master's programs in the U.S. We used one-of-a-kind primary survey data from a National Science Foundation grant that included over 350 master's…

This study explores a student-centered teaching method in postgraduate courses. Teacher-centered classroom teaching cannot fully stimulate learning initiative and enthusiasm of students. Student-centered means that students actively learn and construct knowledge by participating in teaching activities. This study presents a student-centered…

This paper describes a content analysis used to examine educational doctoral degrees (EdD) dissertations in a U.S. university. The purpose of the study was to get a better understanding of the validation techniques utilized in dissertations published by EdD students. Forty-nine dissertations were selected and examined for research methodologies,…

This study aimed to investigate the significance of informal learning contexts in physical education (PE) student teachers' professional identity construction. It addressed two research questions: How do informal learning contexts contribute to the construction of PE student teachers' professional identity? What forms of relationships can be…
