A teaching module for HAZOPs is presented here that was included in the capstone subject. The module included a lecture, class exercise and an advisors' led workshop. Some students undertake HAZOPs individually, representing academic misconduct. A verification strategy, based on Zipf's law, is presented that analyses word frequency and key words…

An experimental design by combining hydrogel and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA) for visually displaying chemical complexation reactions is developed. The Na[superscript +] ions on the [alpha]-l-guluronic acid (G) unit of the sodium alginate molecule undergo an ion exchange with a divalent cation, so that the G units are…

Virtual chemistry laboratory modules were investigated as a potential learning resource that complements traditional in-person experiments. In collaboration with a high school instructor, we designed two interactive modules, "Rates of Reaction" and "Models of Organic Molecules," which became part of a previously reported online…

Today's global challenges are characterised by rapid change. Adjusting to these changes, requires professionals to learn at pace, then rapidly adapt how they work. To support this need, professional development programmes have been designed as Massive Open Online Courses aimed at universal reach, large numbers, and knowledge transfer. However,…

Historically, research disciplines have successfully operated independently. However, the emergence of transdisciplinary research has led to convergence methodologies, resulting in groundbreaking discoveries. Despite the benefits, graduate programs face challenges in implementing transdisciplinary research and preparing students for real-world…

This research aims to determine the effect of the self-regulated learning module on academic procrastination and critical thinking abilities among college students in the PGSD (Primary School Teacher Education) program at Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS). This study follows an experimental design with a quasi-experimental approach. The research…

Contribution: This article discusses a research-practice partnership (RPP) where instructors from six undergraduate courses in three universities developed data science modules tailored to the needs of their respective disciplines, academic levels, and pedagogies. Background: STEM disciplines at universities are incorporating data science topics…

This study assessed the motivation, learning strategies, and academic performance of Grade 11 modular-based students in General Mathematics in identified secondary schools as a basis for a proposed performance enhancement plan. There were 624 Grade 11 students across three public senior high schools in Cebu who were determined using stratified…

Microlearning has shifted professional training and development and its acceptance depends on perceived user benefits. This study examines the influence of user-perceived benefits on librarians' acceptance of the microlearning approach in selected universities in Tanzania. Using a questionnaire informed by the variables of the Technology…

"Kampus Mengajar" is a program intended for university students in Indonesia to establish partnerships with schools and prepare themselves as future professional educators. Student participation in the "Kampus Mengajar" program requires mastery of pedagogical competencies, one of which is the development of teaching modules as…

The Research and development (R&D) methodology was employed in this research to create an educational innovation, called "Online Self-Training Program for Development for Teachers' Learning to Enhance Prosocial Behavior for Students", which was effective according to the specified criteria. This online self-training program consisted…

In this paper we use new experimental data to investigate students' preferences regarding lecture mode and length, and assessment type across two unique dimensions: expected learning and enjoyment. Our main findings are as follows: first, students demonstrate a strong preference against online lectures. Students expect to learn more from, and…

Cultural competence is a continuously developing process that requires transition-to-practice program training to enable new graduate nurses (NGNs) to transfer their knowledge and skills to clinical practice in a culturally sensitive manner. The development and implementation of residency programs, including a cultural competence curriculum, could…

Many authentic BME projects require system integration. This year, before the start of the open-ended Capstone projects, three connected modules were used as an initiative to practice systems integration and thus promote readiness. To this aim, a Do-It-Yourself spectrophotometer/colorimeter was used as the interconnecting theme. In the first two…

Learning to interpret visual representations of data is an important step towards becoming an informed consumer of research. The current study assesses the effectiveness of two versions of a scaffolded online module in improving students' ability to identify main effects and interactions in 2 × 2 factorial designs. Across two experiments (N =…
