This pilot project examines the experiences of a small sample (n = 4) of elementary pre-service teachers (PSTs) as they designed and attempted to implement a series of short lessons, or mini-units, using Ozobots or Makey Makeys during their field experience. Results indicated that, despite the fact that none of the PSTs were able to deliver their…

In fall 2023, Ithaka S+R launched a collective research project with the objective of studying generative AI's impact on teaching, learning, and research at the postsecondary level. Through a collaboration with 19 universities from across the US and Canada, the "Making AI Generative for Higher Education" project has provided an…

As education systems adapt to evolving societal and technological demands, mathematics curricula must also evolve. Recent trends highlight challenges such as declines in student performance and gaps between intended learning goals and real-world applications. Integrating competencies like data literacy, computational thinking, and problem-solving…

This study explores the enthusiasm of pre-service teachers (PsTs) of English as a foreign language (EFL) in an online collaborative lesson planning (OCLP) in a virtual classroom setting. It employed a narrative inquiry that elicited data by using a narrative journal with the theme of enthusiasm and personal stories delivered in an interview. It…

The effectiveness of generative AI tools in education depends largely on prompt engineering--the practice of designing inputs and interactions that guide AI systems to produce relevant, high-quality outputs. This systematic literature review examines empirical studies published since the release of ChatGPT in late 2022, identifying two broad…

While the growing demand for technology integration in healthcare education and practice, technology training in speech-language pathology education is limited. Further research is warranted to investigate digital health and literacy training across interprofessional experiences. This study investigated interdisciplinary digital health and…

This research evaluates student attitudes and perceptions towards online learning at a local institution in Fiji using critical success factors (CSFs), (1) "student characteristics", (2) "teacher characteristics", (3) "learning environment and instructional design", and (4) "support." Data was collected…

This study investigates university students' perceptions and impressions of a visually stimulating syllabus, focusing on its effectiveness in conveying course expectations and its influence on initial impressions of instructors. A mixed-methods approach was used to gather quantitative and qualitative data from 168 university-level…

The possibilities for integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) into higher education may revolutionise approaches to pedagogical practices and curriculum design, while LLMs could be transformative in how students approach their learning. This conversation with ChatGPT, and associated critical evaluation,…

This book showcases a range of professional development activities in English medium instruction (EMI) from diverse international contexts. While EMI offers many benefits, it also comes with challenges for both teachers and learners, especially in terms of language proficiency, teaching practices, and curriculum design. To address these…

Challenge: The biomedical engineering (BME) capstone design courses are traditionally offered in students' senior year. Students often feel underprepared for the hands-on biodesign and prototyping process. Also, capstone design projects are often provided by BME faculty, without students' input in needs finding and screening. Novel Initiative: A…

Background/purpose: Vocational schools require relevant learning methods and models. Project based learning (PjBL) as a product-based learning model and provides real experience. This research describes the learning objectives to be developed, entry skills of vocational school students, characteristics, and learning environment, as well as…

Recognizing the increasing emphasis on whole-person development, this study investigates key dimensions of holistic education in Indian higher education by integrating philosophical, policy, and literature perspectives. Drawing from contemporary Indian spiritual-philosophical wisdom and policy frameworks such as the National Education Policy 2020…

This study presents an analysis of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education research in the Philippines, drawing from 251 documents published between 1959 and 2025 retrieved from the Scopus database.
