This qualitative case study explores how two English language teachers from South Korea and Taiwan developed transcultural dispositions as they participated in a virtual professional development program. The study employed third space as a conceptual framework and the third generation of cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT-3rd) as an…

Students' success in physics problem-solving extends beyond conceptual knowledge of physics, relying significantly on their mathematics skills. Understanding the specific contributions of different mathematics skills to physics problem-solving can offer valuable insights for enhancing physics education. Yet such studies are rare, particularly at…

Strategies are proposed that promote use of an Integrated Applied Mathematics (IAM) approach to enhance teaching of advanced problem-solving and analysis skills. Three scenarios of 1-dimensional transport processes are presented that support using Error Function analyses when considering short time/small penetration depths in finite geometries.…

In this collaborative analytic autoethnography, five researchers and teacher educators from various contexts describe how their participation in a network of critical action researchers led to rhizomatic growth across their landscapes of praxis. Through the authors' narratives, we learn how Deleuze and Guattari's (1987) concept of the rhizome and…

This ethnographic case study provides authentic insights into the intertextual negotiation processes for a particular merger-and-acquisition (M&A) transaction in the context of international legal practice, involving interdisciplinary legal and business professionals. Using genre and discourse analytical methodology, this study focuses on the…

While the role of teams in leading transformations within academia is increasingly recognized, few studies have analyzed how teams form. Understanding the processes of interdisciplinary team formation within higher education will allow leaders to intentionally bring together individuals and form teams with higher likelihoods of success. In this…

Rapid advancements in bioengineering call for broad public literacy to help individuals better understand the changes these technologies bring to our lives. However, making bioengineering concepts accessible and relevant, especially to non-science majors, is often challenging. To address this challenge, we designed a general education course aimed…

In this short piece, we argue that, in light of issues with traditional grading practices, critical assessment activities, particularly through guided reflexivity, can support equitable and social justice-oriented education in communication and beyond. The article posits that a culture-centered critically reflexive self-assessment empowers…

Students may find poetry a surprisingly rich, engaging, and accessible vehicle to motivate and synthesize statistical content. We share and discuss a project and activities used in workshops or a college statistical literacy course.

There is a growing need for more effective interdisciplinary science instruction across undergraduate degree programs. In addition to supporting students' connections between disciplinary concepts, interdisciplinary learning can develop students' critical thinking skills and allow them to evaluate scientific investigations and claims between…

It is agreed that algebra has an important role in physics, particularly through handling symbols. A lot of previous research has focused on how mathematics is used in physics from perspectives where mathematics is taken for granted, and not addressing potential differences of mathematics in the physics classroom and in the mathematics classroom.…

Purpose: This study explored students' perspectives of the approaches to organizing health in secondary school physical education lessons. Method: Utilizing a qualitative methodology, 47 students (aged 11-16 years) from four secondary schools were interviewed. Data were analyzed thematically, with Harris' "approaches to organizing health in…

Given the ubiquity of artificial intelligence (AI), it is essential to empower students to become creators, designers, and producers of AI technologies, rather than limiting them to the role of informed consumers. To achieve this, learners need to be equipped with AI knowledge and concepts and develop AI literacy. Paradoxically, it is largely…

Interdisciplinary personnel preparation programs are crucial in shaping the next generation of service providers in early intervention/early childhood special education (EI/ECSE), special education, school psychology and counseling, and other related service fields. This article examines three distinct interdisciplinary personnel preparation…

In recent years, research on international student mobility (ISM) has increased considerably. One recurring topic within this emerging interdisciplinary research field deals with the various social inequalities that exist in relation to accessing and participating in this form of mobility. However, while methodological and empirical aspects are…
