Professional industry experience can be a benefit to kinesiology and sport management faculty members' pedagogy. Staying abreast of changes in the industry through direct experience can inform faculty and directly influence the quality of classroom instruction. This essay asserts that one way a sport management faculty member at collegiate…

Creators, creation, and audience are the main pillars of the creative process. This study offers an integrative vision that includes the three main components of the creative process by proposing a seven-stage creativity framework in design education. To bridge the gap between theory and practice, the proposed framework was applied in a major…

This book provides a vivid and comprehensive picture of loving pedagogy in second language (L2) education. It focuses on the theoretical and empirical foundations of loving pedagogy to set the ground for researching its ecological systems and measurement. Foreword, written by Elisabeth Vanderheiden, introduces pedagogical love as a transformative…

A frequent challenge that graduate and undergraduate students in chemistry, biology, and pharmacy laboratories face is accurately assigning proton and carbon peaks in the 1D and 2D Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectra of organic and pharmaceutical molecules. We propose a consistent, step-by-step approach to effectively assist students in…

Unethical behaviors on the Internet are increasingly prevalent, causing widespread tangible and intangible harms to society. To address this growing issue, implementing Internet ethics education in higher educational institutions presents a proactive and effective solution to this problem. Understanding the factors that motivate educational…

This paper describes a renal physiology review activity that can be completed during one class session. The activity is a tactile simulation in which colored beads represent various components of the blood, glomerular filtrate, tubular fluid, and interstitial fluid. Students simulate major functions of the nephron by moving beads between…

Often, classroom teachers are asked to teach lessons and internalize them. But the real problem is if teachers do not know why they are teaching a lesson, or where the lesson originated, they cannot pivot, adapt, or tweak the lesson to meet the in-the-moment needs of the students in front of them. So, if younger and even experienced generations of…

One of the core aims of inquiry-based learning (IBL) approaches to history education is to help students grasp how historical knowledge is constructed. Thus, IBL applications are usually justified through reference to expert historians' research practices. We argue that the current body of empirical research on historians' practices is limited in…

In printed English, there is some variability in the relationships between graphemes and the phonemes they represent. Learners who are sensitive to this variability learn to adjust their attempted pronunciation of an unfamiliar word such that they identify a real word that fits the context. This sensitivity and the ability to adjust attempted…

The aim of this study was to develop caregiver-friendly recipes for thickened liquids consistent with the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) guidelines using noncommercial thickening agents to reduce variability in preparation. Recipes were tested combining base and thickening agents, where base agents were measured in…

This book examines the experiences of Learning Development as a pedagogic practice in higher education. Taking a philosophical approach, the book uses the perspective of a fictionalised Learning Developer to investigate the nature of power relations within the university, and how and why they lead to an ongoing sense of 'crisis' in higher…

The concept of using appropriate statistical methods to compare results from a newly proposed analytical method to a standard method can be poorly understood among undergraduate students. We developed a learning activity for an undergraduate analytical chemistry course to provide a practical demonstration of method comparison. The activity…

Focused on the discipline of biology, this chapter reports on the author's personal and professional revelations around their approach to their discipline as uncovered through participation in a Disrupting interview.

Teaching in the prison context is characterized by a high complexity level; it is a multifaced activity influenced by several factors depending on the specific context. We present a preliminary but overall picture of schooling in Italian prisons by considering teachers' reflections regarding their experiences in teaching mathematics in…

Design-based research (DBR) develops interventions and associated local theories about ways of supporting students' learning of particular mathematical topics through iterative cycles of empirical investigation and retrospective analysis. Although DBR has been conducted in mathematics education for various topics and at different educational…
