This paper reflects on the dynamic of co-developing knowledge within a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) project in the UK that set out to direct teenage and young adult Ambulatory Care. This is a service that offers cancer treatment that would have once required inpatient hospital stays. Working within a Community-of-Inquiry (CoI),…

Pedagogical competence development programs in universities are gaining in importance across national contexts. In response to the demand for better teaching in higher education, Scandinavian universities have made the programs a standard part of the application for full employment and qualification for a professorship. Though pedagogical…

This report, which focuses on a completed school project in Allentown, Pennsylvania, is one of two case studies focused on new public schools. In partnership with Enterprise Community Partners and their partners in these communities, we explored how two school openings affected access to opportunities for children. The case studies aim to…

Theorizing and exploring teacher learning contexts is critical to understanding reform-based instructional changes. Research on professional learning, organizational contexts, and science reform has grown over the years, particularly since the unveiling of the Framework for K-12 Science Education in the United States. In this article, the authors…

This brief article explores the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools into blended learning environments for designing and teaching pronunciation tasks. Adapting Calamlam's (2016) conceptual framework, a flowchart is proposed to guide the use of three GenAI tool types to enhance pronunciation instruction: Listen-Mimic…

Course evaluation is often overlooked in the curriculum design and development process. This research, viewed through a "pracademic" lens that combines practical and academic perspectives, analyzes the evaluations and suggestions of English-major students (n = 104) regarding an introductory academic research class within an…

Improving teaching effectiveness is a key goal in higher education. The ARCS motivational model (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) has become widely adopted in educational environments. This systematic review examines 24 studies from 2015 to 2024, sourced from ProQuest, Web of Science, and Scopus, selected from an initial pool of 948…

Mathematical abstraction constitutes the foundational cornerstone for the establishment and evolution of mathematical disciplines, serving as the pathway through which mathematical concepts emerge. As one of the information technologies widely applied in mathematics education, the Dynamic Mathematics Systems (DMS) have been found to have a…

The first MOOC course on geo-informatics, 'maps and the geospatial revolution' was provided as video materials by Penn State in July 2013, since then, the number of geo-informatics MOOC courses has increased significantly (Robinson et al., 2015). This study uses the edX geo-informatics course model as the origin of the experimental results to…

Objective: Although treatment research has relied upon group-based methods to understand treatment response, these methods often are unable to detect intraindividual changes in behavior. Single case designs using time series analyses, in contrast, may be ideal for examining intraindividual variability in treatment response over time. The current…

UNESCO strategies, including the 2006 Road Map for Arts Education, the 2010 Seoul Agenda for Arts Education and the 2024 Framework for Culture and Arts Education, highlight a persistent concern regarding the insufficient emphasis on arts education competencies among pre-service teachers and the challenge of allocating adequate curriculum time in…

Background: This study explored the factors that influence the balance between academic integrity and the effective use of GenAI tools in higher education. It focused on the role of institutional guidelines in enhancing the responsible use of GenAI technologies to enhance academic integrity. Objectives: The study was theoretically grounded in the…

This book illustrates how young people engage with pop culture--music, TV, films, fashion, dance, video games, memes, and digital content in its many forms--and outlines lessons that support them in engaging more actively, critically, and strategically. Part One draws on qualitative research with young people, as well as close analyses of pop…

Engaging students in hands-on engineering design-based instruction as called for in national science, and technology and engineering (T&E) education standards in the United States (U.S.) poses inherent hazards and risks that science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) educators must be adequately prepared to address. Helping…

The exposure of scientific scandals and the increase of dubious research practices have generated a stream of studies on Questionable Research Practices (QRPs), such as failure to acknowledge co-authors, selective presentation of findings, or removal of data not supporting desired outcomes. In contrast to high-profile fraud cases, QRPs can be…
