This qualitative study interviewed twelve (n=12) instructional design and learning technology leaders from the K12, higher education, nonprofit, and corporate sectors to identify trends and challenges that were impacting their work and the work of their teams. Results included technology trends (e.g., artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual…

Studies have found that flipped classroom teaching (FT) improves learning compared to lecture-based teaching (LT). However, whether the structured teacher-student interaction--the key feature of FT--plays an essential role in enhancing learning remains unclear, as do its neural underpinnings. Here, we compared three teaching conditions: FT with a…

Scholars have analyzed debates about controversial faculty speech inside and outside of the classroom, but none have paid close attention to the facet of academic freedom related to professors' decisions about daily teaching methods. This omission, along with obstacles to enacting pedagogical norms, has caused the scholarly community to overlook…

This article explores how relationships of care, trust and hope might be fostered in a social innovation design course at a South African university of technology. Rather than shy away from the challenges of our uncertain world, the paper proposes feminist pedagogical strategies that seek to nurture students' capacity for trust and hope, rather…

Purpose: The increasing interest in game-based learning (GBL) provides an opportunity to enhance interprofessional collaboration between speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and teachers. The purpose of this two-part article is to determine the similarities and differences between how teachers and SLPs think about and employ GBL. Method: Two…

In this article, the authors drew on conceptual frameworks of justice-oriented technology and inquiry pedagogy to explore the question, "How can teacher educators teach and best prepare their own students (preservice and in-service teachers) to teach about justice-oriented technology pedagogy?" The authors provide an example for teacher…

This paper approaches climate change as a superordinate concern that should guide a holistic transformation of formal schooling towards integration and sustainability. The call for climate change education (CCE) has been amplified by international organizations and youth protestors alike, united by a shared concern for our planet. By combining CCE…

Chemical reactions that mimic the function of ATP hydrolysis in biochemistry are of current interest in nonequilibrium systems chemistry. The formation of transient bonds from these reactions can drive molecular machines or generate materials with time-dependent properties. While the behavior of these systems can be complicated, the underlying…

In this study, we aim to investigate the potential advantages of integrating the new generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology, ChatGPT, into higher education, specifically within the field of medical education. The focus is on exploring ChatGPT's applications in personalized learning, assessment, and content creation while also…

The galvanic cell is a typical interdisciplinary topic, which is primarily taught in chemistry but its underpinning is closely related to physics. Student learning in galvanic cell has been extensively studied in chemistry education, which has revealed a large number of misconceptions that are difficult to change through traditional instruction. A…

Emerging technologies such as augmented reality are impacting the field of education, it can be seen in the attention given to technology, specifically augmented reality. Systematic reviews on research related to learning through augmented reality aim to find gaps of augmented reality in learning. However, there is a limited number of systematic…

To be successful in algebra, students need access to high-quality instruction that includes opportunities to develop their algebraic understanding. Yet research on algebra teaching suggests that instruction remains procedurally focused, indicating that teachers may need additional support to provide students such opportunities. One possible lever…

This study aimed to understand pre-service teachers' motivations and learning psychologies in language teaching. The study used a phenomenology pattern, a qualitative research method, to gather pre-service teachers' views about language teaching, motivations and learning psychologies during translation activities. The study group consisted of 42…

This paper compares and contrasts two approaches that are widely used in the English- and German-speaking discourse on mathematics teacher knowledge: 'mathematical knowledge for teaching' and 'mathematics didactic knowledge'. It is proposed that these constructs are based on distinct theoretical and conceptual positions and origins. Mathematical…

"Active learning classrooms" are purpose-built learning spaces designed to facilitate active learning strategies. While sometimes constructed as new rooms, active learning classrooms may also be retrofit from existing learning spaces. The ongoing evaluation of active learning classrooms helps to generate new research insights,…
