Problem Statement: As social work education programs have expanded, there is a desire to understand how cloud-based technology can better support field education administrators with the student placement process and potentially reduce workload. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the factors that influence the frequency of technology…

The transition to graduate school is a unique experience that is challenging for every student as they leave behind many sources of support and enter a new environment that requires incredible independence to navigate. However, programs and institutions often do not focus on supporting the needs of graduate students specifically. Previous research…

Despite efforts of faculty in Higher Education and Student Affairs (HESA) programs focused on social justice/Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) to provide equitable educational experiences for their students, studies on these programs have shown that students of color continue to face racialized experiences in the classroom (Harris & Linder,…

This case study explored the emotions, narrations, and actions of three first-year English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers to identify the factors that influenced their adaptation and how their emotions reflected their needs for professional development. Data were collected from teacher participants' reflective journals and two…

This paper explores the roles and relationships of emotions in the promotion of critical development geographies, as engendered through a student field trip from a university in the so-called Global North to a country in the so-called Global South. Through a case-study involving a field trip led by the authors taking Masters students from the UK…

The concept of co-amorphous systems is introduced in an integrated laboratory experiment, designed for advanced chemistry students, using solvent-free, environmentally friendly mechanochemistry. The dual-drug naproxen-cimetidine co-amorphous system (NPX-CIM) is investigated as an example of the emergent field of medicinal mechanochemistry.…

This study explores how seven middle and secondary teachers understood and developed ambitious pedagogies within the context of their own classroom. Although there has been an emphasis on preparing preservice teachers for utilizing ambitious pedagogies, these practices are often not observed in practicing teachers' classrooms. The purpose of this…

This paper investigates the core curricula of Information Systems (IS) master's programs. It examines all 532 AACSB-accredited business schools in the United States and identifies 74 IS master's programs. MSIS 2016 and other curricular models and studies are used in a research framework to survey core courses. The top three required courses are…

This article describes the creation and outcomes of simulation as Level I Fieldwork for entry level graduate occupational therapy students. The simulations were created by a team of interprofessional educators following the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning best practices. Additionally, the simulations were…

In 2015 the Athletic Training Strategic Alliance made the decision to transition all athletic training programs from undergraduate level degrees to entry-level master's degrees. This decision stems from efforts to align the athletic training profession with other allied health professions. With this decision came several concerns including the…

Despite efforts to recruit educators of color, the teaching profession continues to disproportionately reflect the diverse students served in schools across the country. Recognizing the unique obstacles and barriers for potential Black credential candidates combined with the need to diversify the educator pipeline and workforce, California State…

Few studies examine the use of live actors in simulated training for social work students. This paper offers a programmatic exemplar on the implementation of simulation training in ethical decision-making using professional live actors. It offers original findings on the experiences of Bachelor of Social Work and Master of Social Work students (n…

Physiology education is at the core of biomedical science and medicine. Physiology unites multiple disciplines to explain the mechanisms whereby a risk factor is associated with disease. Race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity are associated with risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Minority stress theory attempts to explain the…

Students are increasingly expected to take up proactive roles in feedback processes. While most feedback research focuses on asking, receiving, and engaging with feedback, some suggest that students must also proactively shape their feedback environment. This study explored graduate life science master's students' first impressions of a dialogue…

Opportunities and concerns regarding the use of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) in higher education have evolved along with them. A concern is how their use could support the higher-order learning appropriate for higher education. Grounded in the conversational framework, this case study explored how reflective practice could be fostered in a…
