This paper outlines the feasibility of replacing a midterm assessment with a student-created digital media project. We examine the benefits of a peer review process for student-created pedagogy, the effectiveness of the student-generated digital media, and self-evaluations as a replacement for traditional forms of assessment. We conclude that this…

This design research aims to propose a HyFlex strategy for students and participants in the workplace using massive open online course (MOOC) flipped between the two settings, an active in-classroom to an action learning in the workplace. The research methods were designed into two major parts, where the first part was a design stage which…

The challenges of the 21st century and the advancement in technology in this era require continuous lifelong learning for social development and career advancement. This study explores pathways for adult learning to enhance the growth and development of people at work. The team of researchers used qualitative methods and the phenomenological…

Our purpose in writing this scholarly personal narrative is to share our perspectives and experiences as graduate student researcher and supervisor/principal investigator implementing and studying teaching and learning reform in the laboratory component of an undergraduate exercise physiology course. We reflect on our grappling with experiential…

The relationship between experience (through practice) and knowledge (by theory) is becoming increasingly important in contemporary educational research and development. Where educational curricula aim to support students in linking practical experience to their academic knowledge development, experiential learning appears complex to design with…

A society that uses drills and conditioning to train its machine learning models risks creating an alienated situation between human and machine in social life, as these teaching methods generate a lack of responsibility for the actions produced by such machines. Both John Dewey and Gilbert Simondon present conceptions and ideas that shed a…

We are living in times of great transformations within the field of education and the labor market. These changes are connected and have to do with an expanded knowledge society, whose implications reach the levels of employability in times of uncertainty. Within this framework, the main purpose of our study is to perform a theoretical analysis…

The present study is a qualitative investigation of the voices of counseling graduate trainees (n = 76) in response to a multicultural competence training on racial microaggressions. The didactic and experiential training included readings, lecture, videos, large and small group discussions, and skills practice sessions. Upon completion of the…

As sport instructors prepare students for the industry through experiential activities and incorporating in-the-moment sport topics, the use of backward design allows for the desired goals and outcomes to drive the instruction (Wiggins & McTighe, 1998, 2005). In addition to backward design being applied in sport courses, the design has been…

Professional identity development of students is an often discussed but never resolved issue in higher education. To facilitate a shift toward developing students' professional identity, we propose a pedagogical model where students are tasked with developing and providing instruction to their classmates during a 75-minute teaching session.…

This article reports on a conference organised by Reclaiming Education about the situation facing technical, vocational and further education as the COVID-19 pandemic slowly wanes. Issues addressed include the changing nature of the student cohort, the reduced scope for practical experience, the value of BTEC courses as against the new T-levels,…

Due to financial strain, a local school district in the Central Great Plains abandoned a curriculum-based summer camp and the local university adopted it, providing opportunities for growth and educational expansion. Additionally, a research component was added to the camp to understand better the impact of the primarily experiential learning…

Study abroad programs have been used as significant experiential learning events. Owing to the short nature of some of these programs, it is important to prepare students in advance to take advantage of the experiential learning opportunity. During a study abroad trip to Ireland, 15 students were given a flipped class approach to learning. Results…

Background and Purpose: Participation rates in many organised sports are stagnating, yet a rapid growth in participation, commercialisation and institutionalisation has been observed in self-organised sports such as surfing, snowboarding skateboarding, BMX racing and rock climbing over the past five decades. These sports are continuously…

The context for this paper is the "Synthetic Training Environment Experiential Learning -- Readiness" (STEEL-R) project [1], which aims to estimate individual and team competence using data collected from synthetic, semi-synthetic, and live scenario-based training exercises. In STEEL-R, the "Generalized Intelligent Framework for…
