Many large, undergraduate science courses, which still heavily rely on traditional lecture-based dissemination of content, passive learning, and exam-based assessments, have been forced online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. To address the challenges facing students in regards to engagement, self-directed learning, and the development of soft…

Although a long time has passed since the theoretical foundation of experiential learning was proposed, designing experiential learning has proven to remain a challenge. We contribute to this matter by reviewing 31 empirical articles that have provided insights into what this 'more' experiential learning could be. Results are systematically…

With the recent emphasis on clinical models of teacher education, research is needed to improve understanding of how teacher candidates learn from clinical practice. The purpose of this study is to explore the types of learning spaces generated during mentoring discussions focused on analysis of video-recorded practice. Participants consist of the…

The aim of this article is to discuss the significance of reflective journals as a tool for reflection, dialogue and cooperation…

Countertransference and transference have been well researched in the context of the client-therapist relationship, but the few studies look at these unconscious processes in other helping professions, such as teaching. Utilizing a hermeneutic phenomenological methodology, we investigated how transference and countertransference are understood and…
