Interdisciplinary training for doctoral students is an emerging scenario in higher education. The learning relations of knowledge transfer (KT: transferring knowledge from one person to another) and knowledge integration (KI: integrating or synthesizing perspectives from different disciplines) built by doctoral students play an important role in…

This study examines which factors influence the number of master's programs being offered to complete the 150-hour accounting curriculum requirement and whether there is a link among the number of programs, accounting program performance, and market orientation. Survey responses were analyzed from 201 business school deans and accounting chairs…

The President of prestigious Beacon University is dealing with a nationwide scandal involving its admissions and athletics operations. For years, a network of corrupt admissions consultants, standardized test proctors, and college coaches operated a lucrative underground pipeline into top universities, and it has recently infiltrated Beacon. Under…

This qualitative, longitudinal study traces the development of preservice social studies teachers' awareness of and reaction to the current climate of truth decay over the course of their initial certification program. By drawing a parallel between Bakhtin's concept of the carnivalesque and the current online media landscape, this study found that…

As higher education institutions are pressured to evaluate the responsiveness of their curriculum programs, there is a challenge of first order to define responsiveness. This challenge, however, is compounded by the paucity of a tested evaluation model that addresses it. Thus, this paper aimed to evaluate the responsiveness of the Bachelor of…

With no universal educational requirements to coach at the collegiate level (Schempp et al., 2006), a coach may be hired based on past playing experience (Morris et al., 2014), who they know (McCullick et al., 2016), or by demonstrating a strong work ethic (Van Mullem & Croft, 2015). Thus, in reality a coach may be unprepared to lead an…

Previous research documented positive associations between cognitively stimulating work and levels of cognitive performance, while longitudinal associations are less clear. We used 20-year longitudinal data from the Interdisciplinary Longitudinal Study of Adult Development and Aging (ILSE) to examine the role of perceived work environment…

This article presents a case study that examines how undocumented students created a safe space for themselves on their college campus and how that space was ultimately institutionalized by the university. It also considers the politically vulnerable position of undocumented youth in such endeavors. Drawing from Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems…

The famous Anglo-American poet W. H. Auden held a summer residence in a small village near Vienna from 1958 until his death in 1973. In 1995, the attic of his house was opened as a local museum dedicated to the writer. And in 2015, a relaunch of the exhibition tried to bring the heritage of Auden back to presence. A major challenge for the new…

Many tertiary institutions with mathematics programmes offer introduction to proof courses to ease mathematics students' transition from primarily calculation-based courses like Calculus and differential equations to proof-centred courses like real analysis and number theory. However, unlike most tertiary mathematics courses, whose mathematical…

The aim of this study is to analyse undergraduate students' understanding of polar coordinates based on two theories, Action, Process, Object and Schema (APOS) and Onto-Semiotic Approach (OSA). These two theories complement each other and each of them separately has been used in many research to explore students' performance of mathematical…

During the 2018 Professors in Instructional Design (PIDT) Conference, faculty representing over a dozen institutions met to discuss curricular initiatives that were being implemented across programs, and the challenges and benefits of these initiatives. The discussion focused on several areas, including: interdisciplinary/multidisciplinary…

This research commentary argues for more research that attends to the processes of organizational change in mathematics departments. It outlines both the ways that research on organizational change can benefit scholarship in mathematics departments, and how mathematics education researchers are needed to develop theories of change that are…

This phenomenological study explores the ethical challenges experienced by both supervisors and supervisees in transnational settings. Thirty-two participants from sixteen countries completed an open-ended, short-answer survey of their experiences with ethical issues in supervision. Emerging themes were identified and results were sent to…
