Understanding the experiences, perceptions, and barriers of students is critical to address disparities and fostering equity, particularly in the rapidly growing domain of online education. This study explored these factors among undergraduate students from an online math program at a Midwestern University, focusing on factors influencing the…

The study aims to investigate the impact of e-learning readiness on faculty's performance in their academic works. It also seeks to examine how their information security awareness and technology self-efficacy mediate this primary effect. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many academic institutions around the world have closed; and adopted online…

Accuracy on assessments is commonly studied in education research but response time (RT) is relatively less investigated even though decades of research in cognitive sciences indicate that time can be an important dimension for understanding student learning. To better understand RT and the potentially important relations between accuracy and RT…

Blended learning modes are becoming the norm in educational institutions. This research investigates the factors affecting teacher satisfaction with online lesson delivery. This study was undertaken in primary, secondary, and higher education institutions across ten countries worldwide. A total of 247 teachers responded to the survey. This work…

This article details an experiment with flipped/hybrid courses that was guided by questioning how history units across the nation's colleges and universities can curb enrollment decline, improve student experiences, and impart to students the value of studying history and why it should remain an essential part of college curricula. A team of…

Fully online courses and degree programs are popular with students. These courses should provide the rigor and value of traditional learning in a face-to-face classroom to ensure mastery of concepts and learning objectives. This research expands previous work to investigate the effectiveness of online laboratory exercises in enhancing student…

Interprofessional education (IPE) has been recognized as an integral component of several social work competencies. There is increasing research on health-focused IPE in social work curricula to prepare social work students for interprofessional collaborative practice. However, to date, fewer IPE activities have been developed specific to child…

This study examined how five minoritized female pre-service teachers negotiated their border crossing from learning to teach science to science teaching for the first time (microteaching) within the context of an elementary science teaching methods course. Perspectives from the border crossing literature guided this study and helped in addressing…

In this study, we explore the use of analogies with classical physics in introductory quantum physics (QP) teaching. This work is part of a larger project in which a learning sequence covering three introductory QP topics was designed, tested, and evaluated in collaboration with high school teachers and physics education researchers. Based on the…

This essay places David Graeber's consistent focus on imagination and possibilities into conversation with social studies education. In a sociopolitical climate characterized by neoliberalism, militarized borders, and political censorship of social studies teaching and learning in P-12 schools, it is crucial that social studies teachers and…

Research shows that when students use core concepts to guide their reasoning, they are able to construct more accurate, mechanistic explanations. However, there is scant research exploring student's perceptions of the usefulness of core concepts. Knowing students' perceptions could be influential in encouraging faculty to adopt core concept…

"Divisive Concepts" laws have sprung up around the nation as a backlash to the widespread commitments to anti-racist education that emerged in summer 2020. This critical policy analysis examines the concepts central to Florida's "Individual Freedom Act" [HB7] of 2022, to determine its intent and impact in ameliorating or…

Through a hierarchical multiple regression analysis, this study investigated how dimensions of online learning readiness and online connectedness influence students' intentions to continue to take online courses. Data from 369 students who took at least one online course at a four-year public university showed that online learning readiness had a…

The digitalisation of education has accelerated the transition toward heutagogical approaches, particularly in postgraduate education, fostering learner autonomy and self-directed learning. This study investigates how Master's degree students perceived and engaged with the principles of Education 3.0 and Education 4.0, focusing on their awareness,…

In this article, we engage with undergraduate geography students' reflections on their geography education. We begin by examining the position of geography within education across the British Isles. Following this, we critically consider how geography education is shaped by "the gap" between school and university geography and…
