Studio-based learning is gaining currency in university engineering education programmes. It is widely argued that this practice-oriented, collaborative approach to developing professional, teamwork and interpersonal skills is needed to prepare the future workforce. In this paper, students' expectations and perceptions of a first-year studio were…

To help instructors teach students the meaning of negotiations, and to help students understand the different types of negotiations, we developed the "Negotiate to Survive" activity. In this activity, students work in teams to participate in both distributive and integrative negotiations, in an effort to help them understand the…

Purpose: In this study, we presented the Design Thinking model called DITC (Design Thinking in Class) and conducted an experiment during one month with 197 engineering students at Hanoi University of Technology (HUST) to determine how this model could aid in the growth of problem solving and teamwork mindset in a flipped classroom. Method: A…

Despite the fact that establishing a culture of teamwork among students is one of the most important functions and duties of the school, very few studies have addressed this issue in Saudi Arabia. This study investigates the role of all-female schools in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in promoting a culture of teamwork among its students from the…

This paper presents strength and thermal studies, as well as an analysis of the design material for the development of a nanosatellite model. By using the SolidWorks software environment, an effective solid-state finite-element model of a nanosatellite are developed, on the basis of which the stress-strain state of the nanosatellite is analyzed,…

This study addresses secondary school principals in Nebraska who are dealing with the negative ramifications of their students' social media interactions. To combat the problem, this study sought to identify the technology leadership qualities possessed by secondary school principals in Nebraska who support student-led social media teams. A…

The purpose of this action research study was to understand and strengthen the learning culture of one curriculum specialist team working remotely at Newco (pseudonym). The study participants were curriculum specialists who claimed they had little time to learn independently or share knowledge with teammates due to the isolation of remote work and…

This qualitative study begins with the supposition that all schools have cultural biases and that even within the same school culture, people see things differently. Internal biases can negatively affect the approach to school improvement. To disrupt these culture bound realities, parent perspectives were sought out to provide an alternate view…

Paraprofessionals are important members of special education teams. In particular, the experiences of paraprofessionals who support students with autism spectrum disorder may provide valuable insights and thus merit qualitative research. In this narrative study, the relevant experiences of Turkish paraprofessionals are investigated. Findings…

For more than 30 years, Peter Senge's theory of learning organizations has influenced the study of leadership and organizations. Researchers have studied various components of his framework: team cognition and mental models, team learning, shared vision, systems thinking, and personal mastery. But few articles have explored what it looks like in…

This case study combines Stephen Brookfield's Critical Incident Questionnaire (CIQ) and Tuckman's phases of small group development to study students' perception of teamwork within a humanities course. As the semester progressed and students' experiences within the team cycle evolved, their reliance towards direct teaching decreased and their…

As the field of education has continued to grow and develop introducing new, innovative learning models, it has become critical to ensure educators have been prepared to personalize student learning rather than using traditional approaches. As the program manager of a hybrid microschool, my role has included providing professional development to…

School reentry after inpatient psychiatric hospitalization requires careful coordination between multiple team members to ensure stability across transitions, given documented negative academic and socioemotional impacts in the post-discharge period. Existing investigations are limited by the fact that no articles examine the perspectives of…

The application of digital game-based learning (GBL) methods has lately received more attention in higher education (HE). An extensive body of previous investigations has recognised the potential of instructional games to advance the learning of appropriate work life skills. However, there seems to be a lack of understanding in the current…

Students as partners (SaP) has become an impactful practice in higher education as it enables students to take ownership of their learning and exercise agency. However, the implementation of SaP, particularly in Asia, has encountered many challenges, including concerns about a large power distance between students and teachers. Despite the…
