This study presents a scoping review of factors influencing innovation-driven entrepreneurship among undergraduate students in private higher education institutions. Guided by the methodological framework of Arksey and O'Malley (2005) and the PRISMA-ScR reporting guidelines (Tricco et al., 2018), this review systematically synthesizes theoretical,…

Occupational therapy inherently involves the application of design and co-design skills within professional practice, yet there is limited evidence about how these skills are taught to students. This study used a qualitative descriptive design to explore the perspectives of occupational therapy educators in Australia and New Zealand on how and…

Teachers engaged in moral education face a puzzle. We aim to bring children up to believe in and subscribe to basic moral standards such as prohibitions against harming others and requirements to help when we can. At the same time, there is widespread reasonable disagreement about the content and justification of morality, and teaching standards…

Understanding the structure and function of proteins is crucial for students as it provides fundamental insights into one of the central building blocks of life. Yet, undergraduate students struggle to make sense of proteins and apply knowledge about why structure affects function. Here, we expand on an existing typology of common protein…

Transdisciplinary research is increasingly important for solving complex societal problems. Institutions aim to train graduate students to engage in transdisciplinary research. However, limited evidence exists regarding the process by which students learn transdisciplinary thinking. This qualitative study explored graduate students' pathways of…

This research aimed (1) to evaluate a project-based learning model for enhancing computational science teaching skills of master teachers in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, and (2) to assess the validity of a structured interview form designed to evaluate these teachers' computational science teaching skills. The target group consisted of five…

Modern electrical grids are becoming increasingly complex, requiring engineers who can adapt, justify their actions, and exercise sound professional judgment. Yet, many graduates struggle to demonstrate these expert traits despite strong academic performance. A key challenge in engineering education is locating where learners fall along the…

The transformation of educational systems requires pedagogical approaches that move beyond the conventional format of learning by transmission of content. It is pressing to address the challenges deriving from the changing landscape of the workplace. Diverse, hybrid, technologically enhanced, focused on 21st century skills, and an advocate of…

Across development, young children reason about why social inequities exist. However, when left to their own devices, young children might engage in "internal thinking," reasoning that the inequity is simply a justified disparity explained by features internal to social groups (e.g., genetics, intellect, abilities, values). Internal…

Developing students' competence in algorithmic thinking is emerging as an objective of mathematics education, but despite its inclusion in mathematics curricula around the world, research into students' algorithmic thinking seems to be falling behind in this curriculum reform. The aim of this study was to investigate how the mathematical modelling…

Increasing mental health issues, such as emotional problems, pose a threat for the academic performance of undergraduate students. We propose a route connecting emotional problems and academic performance through executive functioning skills (EFS). Despite the abundance of research on the topic of EFS, there is a significant gap in understanding…

The identification in this study with the aim is to describe how difficult it is for students to think reflectively when solving math problems, especially in linear programming material. Based on the purpose of this study, the type of research is qualitative with a descriptive exploratory approach. Data collection techniques used are: (1) test…

Teaching disciplinary literacy in the elementary classroom provides rich potential for bridging the literacy-content divide, building background knowledge, extending learning, and deepening student thinking. This article explores how six elementary teachers tried and tested approaches to embedding literacy in three very different subjects:…

Past research indicates that the testing effect is an effective tool to improve memory and retention and academic performance, however, very few studies have investigated the effects across academic disciplines with a focus on higher- vs. lower-level learning. Therefore, in the current study, we sought to examine whether the testing effect occurs…

Purpose: This paper features a narrative case study of a leadership team engaged in an effort to transform both culture and instructional practice at an urban charter school. The paper describes the team's effort to align their decision-making with two frameworks selected to anchor the school's institutional change process: restorative justice and…
