The advent of graduate level athletic training education programs, including those with online didactic curriculum, encourages instructors to incorporate higher level thinking strategies into their curricula. "Create" and "synthesize" are highlevel verbs in Bloom's Taxonomy. Pathomechanics, the study of how musculoskeletal…

The methodology outlined in this paper proposes a structured and replicable framework for incorporating AI-assisted evaluation tools into educational contexts characterized by creative expression and artistic inquiry. Over a four-month case-study at the Rome Fine Arts Academy, twenty-five students engaged with Sergio Blanco's theatrical monologue,…

This study aims to reveal the effect of artificial intelligence (AI) tools and STEM-themed story writing training on preservice Turkish teachers' digital literacy (DL) levels and 21st century skills (21.cS). A control group experimental design was used in the study. The sample of the study consisted of 36 (17 control, 19 experimental) preservice…

This study evaluated the effects of the purposes of the homework given by teachers (preparatory homework, reinforcement homework, and extension homework) on the learning levels of the students. In this study, technical/scientific/collaborative design, one of the action research types, was used. The research was conducted with three teachers…

In today's connected world, forming teams of people to execute projects is seen as a challenge in government agencies and public and private organisations alike. For large enterprises, a small group of thoughtful and committed people performing different roles could essentially change the world. At the same time, however, it is hard to select an…

Reading comprehension is a central skill in secondary education. To be able to provide adaptive instruction, teachers need to be able to accurately estimate students' reading comprehension. However, they tend to experience difficulties doing so. Eye tracking can uncover these reading processes by visualizing what a student looked at, in what…

This paper considers characteristic views advanced in the past fifteen years that may be considered relatively sympathetic to student practices of cheating on graded assignments or exams. We detect and analyze typical fallacies that are recurrent in articles that promote a revisionist view of cheating as morally permissible. We offer a general,…

The National Academy of Science has published studies showing strong scientific evidence that global warming is caused by human consumption of fossil fuels, yet recent surveys have shown young adults in the U.S. are disengaged or disagree with this fact. Accordingly, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)…

This article explores how college instructors can use William Blake's unique pairing of image and text -- what W.J.T. Mitchell calls "composite art" -- to encourage students to think and write about the dynamic interplay of image and text in modern communications. Opening with an anecdote of teaching Songs of Innocence and of Experience…

Scientific knowledge is growing rapidly, particularly in biochemistry, an interdisciplinary subject in which the courses attract diverse students with varied disciplinary interests and career goals. Thus, there is a need to teach skills and concepts in biochemistry in a way that is both compelling to a variety of learners and also relevant to…

The transition to college can be difficult for many first-year students. Students who are conditionally enrolled may struggle more than their peers in terms of feeling comfortable in an academic setting. This case study explores how conditionally-enrolled students who participated in a summer bridge program read popular literature to explore their…

While many studies have investigated the effect of task complexity on L2 writing, little has been reported on the effects of intended task complexity manipulations on task-generated cognitive demands in L2 writing. This study, therefore, was designed to examine the relative effects of task complexity and cognitive demands on students' L2 writing.…

Epistemic beliefs are one's assumptions about knowledge and knowing. Given the research in educational psychology that established epistemic beliefs as reliable predictors of student success, we devised a pedagogical intervention to improve students' epistemic beliefs. In this study, we examined the effectiveness of the reflective writing task as…

Ageism is highly prevalent, especially among college students. However, efforts to reduce ageism largely take place in helping professions. This activity seeks to promote positive perceptions toward older adults and aging among communication undergraduate students through gerontological education, a positive intergeneration contact experience, a…

Estimation of soil texture is an essential skill for soil scientists, but a difficult skill to learn. We compared two approaches for teaching soil texture: the traditional flowchart approach and an experimental self-calibration method. Three lab sections of an introductory soil science class were assigned to learn by the flowchart method (n = 60)…
