Many historically underrepresented students enroll in online classes because they need the flexibility to balance work, family, and coursework (Phirangee et al., 2016). However, community college students are less successful in online classes than they are in face-to-face classes (Xu & Jaggars, 2014). Feelings of isolation and disconnectedness…

How can we engage new engineering and computer science graduate students in meaningful conversations about research and publication ethics without establishing a common understanding of the issues and expectations? Most universities offer extensive responsible conduct of research (RCR) training programs, which are usually a semester-long. Absent a…

In this article, Betsy Potash shares the frustration she experienced as a student when working on group projects. She struggled with being a good listener and with a tendency to dominate the group projects. Teachers had not taught her how to work well in a group.

Disruptive technology in industrial revolution 4.0 (iR4.0) has propagated the education sector to digitalize the teaching and learning process effectively and efficiently. However, some teachers still use paper-based worksheet assessment and teaching materials in conducting their teaching. The solution offered is to provide training on applying…

This article contributes to discussions surrounding the development of 'analytical tools' sensitive to the fluid nature of collective memory and all its 'varieties, contradictions, and dynamism' (Olick, 2008: 159). It explores the methodological challenges of investigating how young people in New Zealand and the United Kingdom negotiate processes…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of theoretically-guided, instructional design strategies in an online learning module that was implemented in four undergraduate sport management and recreation courses. The study was framed within Social Cognitive Theory, a well-studied model for adult learning, and several instructional design…

Critical dialogue is a problem-posing discussion set up to ensure equal access and participation by all students, constructed to focus on a multiplicity of viewpoints.

The new generation of natural science teaching material in elementary school is the teaching material that utilizes inquiry-based learning in most parts of the tutorial and the provided material. The updating of teaching materials is an activity that must be carried out by the Universitas Terbuka to assure that the quality is following the…

To combat high failure and student drop-out rates, universities have developed strategies to monitor online student engagement through measurable activities. In this study, we explore if and how these monitoring activities accurately measure online engagement. We interviewed nine highly engaged online third-year students throughout a semester to…
