This paper presents a learning journey about deepening capacity for teaching with Place through relational learning and shares three pedagogical ingredients that are integral in enacting more ethical, decolonial place pedagogies. We are three women, educators working in community and teacher education with interests in environmental education,…

This qualitative study examines student learning experiences toward a student-developed case study activity for online discussion guided by a three-tier case method model. Forty-five students were recruited from four online adult education courses. Analysis of students' feedback shows that this activity leads to students' positive learning…

A Faculty Learning Community (FLC) was established to help STEM faculty integrate entrepreneurially minded learning (EML), a pedagogy that develops curiosity, connections, and value creation, into a new engineering undergraduate program during the pandemic. Guided by the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) framework, the FLC…

This study investigates the potential of using ChatGPT as a teachable agent to support students' learning through teaching, specifically in programming education. While learning by teaching (LBT) is an effective pedagogical strategy, traditional teachable agents often struggle with facilitating dynamic, dialogue-based interactions. Our research…

Deepening education reform and innovation, and cultivating students' innovative abilities are considered essential development directions of AR technology. However, whether AR technology can effectively improve students' innovation abilities remains a topic of debate, as different studies have reported significant discrepancies in their findings.…

The mechanistic approach to teaching introductory-level organic chemistry--Organic One and Two (Organic I and II) in the United States--continues to predominate since its introduction through Morrison and Boyd's legendary textbook. In this approach, reactions are taught alongside their electron-pushing mechanisms (EPMs), thereby providing students…

Building information modeling (BIM) is becoming more widely used in higher education due to changing industry demands. As a digital representation of a facility's characteristics, BIM promotes cost-effective facility planning, interdisciplinary collaboration, and sustainability initiatives. Additionally, it assists educational institutions in…

Inquiry-based teaching is the most widespread approach in science education worldwide. However, in Peru, this model became better known since the latest curriculum reform in 2016, which proposed implementing that teaching approach at all levels of schooling. Since then, no literature review has been conducted on the status quo of implementing…

This paper examines polar questions in Arapaho, from several perspectives. First, examples are given of consultants' elicited Arapaho glosses for English-language questions, along with consultant commentary and language ideologies on the proper forms. Of note is the consultants' preference for negative polar questions. Next, a series of…

The generative learning strategy of learning by drawing has received increased attention in recent years. Although this strategy is regularly used by educators, the literature suggests that the effectiveness of the method depends on several factors. In this review, we highlight recent research trends and methodological progress within the field.…

Gross anatomy courses utilize cadaver dissection to teach identification, topography, and spatial relationships of organs. The deconstructive nature of dissection, however, focuses students' attention on the "big picture", followed by a discovery of details. This approach may be useful for many, however some students may prefer to…

Role-playing using avatars has been demonstrated as effective, but it has not been compared to role-playing with a live actor. In this study, undergraduate psychology students (N=93) conducted a clinical interview in a role-play with an avatar or live actor. Mixed methods included a survey and written reflection. The study found no differences in…

In this quasi-experimental study, we examined the effect of a self-reflection activity on the utility value of pre-service teachers in teaching game design. A pretest-posttest design was used to determine any differences associated with the intervention. 129 pre-service teachers from different majors participated in the study. The participants…

The concept of statistical sense provides an understanding of the goals of statistics education and helps to clarify the design of activities that promote the development of statistical literacy, reasoning and thinking. The new approaches to statistics in schools mean special attention must be paid to teacher training. This training should enable…

For many years, hegemonic approaches to teaching the nature of science (NOS) have focused mainly on understanding some epistemic (i.e., rational, or cognitive) aspects involved in the construction of science. So, aspects of a non-epistemic (i.e., non-rational, contextual, or extra-scientific) nature have been practically neglected in these…
