Ian Normile begins this study from the premise that critical thinking is often conceptualized and practiced in problematically narrow and instrumentalized ways. Following Ronald Barnett, he suggests that the idea of "critical being" can help expand the theory and practice of critical thinking to better meet the needs of education and…

This study was an attempt to fit into the field of education to help leaders and parents further develop an in-depth understanding of the differing ability levels of individuals who have experienced trauma.

This article explores Dewey's understanding of the nature of education through three seminal works written over a 32-year period. In "Democracy and Education" (1916) Dewey developed a concept of education which can be understood through two German words for education, Erziehung and Bildung. Through considering the approach to these…

Simulation learning experiences have become an accepted form of andragogy in speech-language pathology following a revision of the 2016 American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) Standards allowing students to count simulation hours towards their required hours for graduation. There is a lack of research in the field of speech-language…

In March 2020 most universities internationally were forced to provide education remotely due to university closures secondary to the COVID-19 pandemic. This rapid transfer to online delivery of educational programmes-initiated challenges for students and faculty. Synthesizing qualitative research on nursing and midwifery faculty and student…

As globalisation deepens, student mobility and migration have not only impacted on the economic and social landscape of the host societies but has also infused desires and imaginaries into individuals' minds.
