Competencies essential for thriving and competing globally in the 21st century include creative thinking, critical thinking and problem solving, collaboration, and communication (often referred to as the 4Cs). This study explores the effectiveness of Project-Based Learning (PBL), Electronic Project-Based Learning (E-PBL), and traditional learning…

This study focuses on designing a project-based learning module for early science education for home-based learning. The module comprises four dimensions: plants, planets, magnets and robotics, and weather. Using a quantitative approach and the design and development research (DDR) method, 15 early childhood education (ECE) experts were surveyed…

Using the approach to teaching and developing strengths and talents known as the Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM) this book provides a blueprint on how to expand your repertoire of evidence-based practices and pedagogical strategies to better challenge and engage twice exceptional students. Covering topics such as how to provide various types of…

To address global challenges such as climate change, we must prepare an engineering workforce of sustainability-minded engineers ready to tackle complex socio-technical problems with multiple stakeholders. Frameworks like the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have begun to drive structural changes in engineering education,…

This research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach to investigate the integration of Projectbased Learning (PBL) with Demonstration through the Metaverse to promote Media Production Skills and Multimedia Innovation. The study's objectives were to synthesize, design, develop, and evaluate this integrated learning system. Expert…

Integrating the STEM method within the Education 5.0 framework can markedly improve 21st-century skills in high school pupils by unifying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into a comprehensive learning plan. This study systematically reviews how STEM education within Education 5.0 frameworks specifically improves digital literacy,…

Concerned about the vulnerability of final year literature projects to Generative AI (GAI), a portfolio assessment to document a students' project is described. Students are required to record all aspects of the project including critical reflections of the literature and reflections on meetings with their project supervisor. A qualitative…

In this insightful and practical book, educator Sheldon L. Eakins sheds light on a pressing but often overlooked challenge in today's education system: the cultural disconnect between classroom norms and the diverse backgrounds of students. With a blend of analysis and hands-on teaching strategies, Eakins deftly explores the intersection of…

The increasing trend of anxiety among students is closely linked to psychological safety, which refers to an environment where individuals feel comfortable expressing their thoughts without fear of negative consequences. Conversely, environments lacking psychological safety can heighten anxiety. This report examines the impact of transitioning…

This multiple case study sought to examine the individual experiences of three different teachers' experiences with learning about and using project-based learning in their elementary classrooms. The following factors influencing teachers' instructional decision making were used: teacher knowledge, teacher pedagogical beliefs, teacher…

We begin with the premise that empathy adds value as a strategic marketing skill. Getting into the heads and hearts of consumers enables tailored offerings and tactics that meet the unique, richly contextualized needs of a given target audience segment. The advent of marketing automation and artificial intelligence (AI) is predicted to make…

With this paper, we share an activity for the undergraduate mathematics classroom called "The Harp Project" that leverages the aesthetic nature of both the mathematical and the musical arts. This project was conceived as a STEAM/PBL project with the added feature that it was carried out in pieces by an entire class. Anecdotal evidence…

Despite critical thinking supporting a deeper understanding of the scientific process, university activities prioritize lower cognitive processes, such as remembering skills. Also, it is unclear whether gender biases in interest toward science exist in university science degrees. These hinder students from achieving their goals effectively since…

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate student motivation before and after the summer internship, in other words, to evaluate whether the summer internship affects male and female motivations differently. Design/methodology/approach: Investigating whether the motivation score predicts grade point average was included by adopting a quantitative…

This article argues that current Supply Chain Management (SCM) education and training is inadequate to meet the human capital needs of industry. To bridge this gap, we propose the development and deployment of SCM educational programs that provide learning opportunities earlier in students' educational journeys. We argue that such programs should…
