Based on the HTML5 video element, WebVTT (Web Video Text Tracks) and MySQL, we developed a Rich Media Platform for Table Tennis learning (RMPTTL). This platform can support online motion analysis. Meanwhile, social agents (peers, coaches and parents) can leave comments to influence players' participation motivation. A mixed experimental design was…

The democratisation and commodification of education has witnessed an increase in postgraduate education as it is one of the main sources contributing to the advancement of knowledge, technology, and innovation. However, despite the significant rise in numbers, the returns at both the global and national levels have been low due to high attrition…

Grades influence students' confidence and decisions to complete STEM degrees and pursue relevant careers. What affects students' confidence and performance in college upper-division biology laboratory courses and how relevant are evaluation methods to career success? STEM laboratory courses are an excellent model to address these issues because of…

Indigenous research leadership can enhance research benefits to Indigenous communities. Our research investigates how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (henceforth Indigenous) leadership is expressed in the context of academic research, and how Indigenous leadership is supported or constrained in such context. This exploratory study includes…

Introduction: The ability of students to engage with graphical materials supports learning in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics areas. For students with visual impairments, understanding the factors that contribute to the effective interpretation of graphics can promote meaningful access to the curricula. Methods: Forty…

This interview study employs a distributed leadership perspective to explore three coach-principal dyads' perspectives on: (1) the strategies coaches use to gain entry to teachers' classrooms; (2) the barriers that impede coaches' access; and (3) the supports that facilitate coaches' access. Results indicate that the principals were largely…

The field of career development has been focused on one-to-one practice but recent years have seen a growth in the need for alternative approaches that are more effective at challenging inequality. Collective group-based models have been identified as addressing this need but little attention has been paid to developing group coaching in the…

A key challenge for educators in business is to incorporate learning tools that mimic the uncertainty and complexity of the real business environment. However, recent advancements in technology have offered new tools that address this challenge. One such increasingly popular tool has been computer simulations. While the use of simulations has…

English-medium instruction (EMI) has become increasingly popular in higher educational institutions across the world due to the prominence of English and the internationalization of higher education. Nevertheless, limited research to date has investigated its impacts on content learning through objective measures. The present study addresses this…

Simulation plays an important part in enhancing the outcomes of clinical training worldwide. In particular, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving procedure that utilizes a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit to offer short or mid-term respiratory and circulatory assistance to seriously ill patients. After the current Coronavirus…

The opportunity to undertake teaching degrees entirely via online learning has proliferated in the last decade. Research shows that students choose to engage with content and application activities when they are directly aligned to assessment. The researchers trialled praxis-based assessment which required completion of practical learning tasks…

Through a systematic review of the literature, we draw attention to factors associated with burnout and the effects on the military with a special focus on the US Air Force. Our review consists of the military and human resource development (HRD) literature on burnout. We integrate insights from the review of both literature on burnout and develop…

Student Approaches to Learning (SAL) have been the focus of much research, typically linking different approaches, e.g., surface and deep, to different assessment types. However, much of the previous research has not considered the different conditions under which different types of assessment occur and the different types of feedback they…

Both positive and negative emotions have been the focus of a wealth of language learning research in recent years. This can mostly be attributed to the established links between an individual's psychological responses, existing and emerging from learning, the learning processes they engage in, and the outcomes they achieve. A look at advanced…

Information technology professionals are required to possess both technical and professional skills while functioning in teams. Higher education institutions are promoting teamwork by engaging students in cooperative and project-based learning environments. We characterized teams based on their collective orientations and evaluated their team…
