This book provides a comprehensive examination of teacher design thinking and practice, structured across ten chapters that can be read either as a complete narrative or as standalone works. The content is organized into three parts--Part 1: Foundations and frameworks (Chapters 1-3)--Establishes the theoretical groundwork for understanding…

Growth in data analytics coupled with transparency movements in higher education has led many colleges and universities to adopt the use of data dashboards that distill large amounts of data into digestible summaries. In this paper, we examine the use of public-facing data dashboards about the profile of a campus community. We refer to these…

This scoping review examines the impact of blended learning, especially the dichotomy of synchronous and asynchronous, on equity in higher education. Employing the Arksey and O'Malley (2005) framework, the literature is systematically reviewed to understand how these educational paradigms can facilitate or hinder equitable learning experiences,…

This research aims to examine recent studies on the dimensions necessary for developing mathematical modelling instruction and established frameworks used in teaching mathematical modelling. The study followed the steps outlined as such: identification, screening, eligibility, inclusion, and data analysis throughout three search engines: ERIC,…

The rise of AI in educational assessments has significantly enhanced efficiency and accuracy. However, it also introduces critical ethical challenges, including bias in grading, data privacy risks, and accountability gaps. These issues can undermine trust in AI-driven assessments and compromise educational fairness, making a structured ethical…

This research report describes a Learning Trajectory-based Curricular Design project that engaged teachers and coaches in the design and implementation process. As the project team, we focused on deepening teacher designers' understanding of the learning trajectory (LT) while situating student learning along a continuum to advance student…

We live in an attention economy where many of our interactions are mediated by technologies incentivized to exploit our attention. The consequences of this exploitation, so far as they are known, affect how we spend our time, and also our capacity for reflection and self-awareness, which can have lasting effects across our life and relationships.…

Educational beliefs influence teachers' designing teaching environment, teaching methods and techniques they apply in the classroom, the strategies they use in classroom management and the measurement-evaluation tools they prefer. In this regard, teachers' educational beliefs can be said to affect their curriculum design orientations. Curricula…

The Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, with funding from the Institute of Education Sciences (IES), has been working to develop and implement a registry for education studies, the Registry of Efficacy and Effectiveness Studies (REES) (https://www. sree.org/pages/registry.php). REES aims to increase transparency, rigor, and…

This essay posits that an institution's program design mandates the curriculum for the classes we teach and that curriculum affects the concept of "canonical" literature, teacher preparation, textbook content, and comfort with discussing difference in the second language classroom for undergraduates. For that reason, this essay argues…

The increasing digitalization of working methods require new competencies from health and social care professionals. In addition, the development of person-centered digital health and social services call for interprofessional expertise and a social community with a unified language and culture. This study analyzes how the renewed model of…

Inclusive education refers to an educational approach in which all students can learn and participate in the mainstream school system. The successful implementation of inclusive practices is strongly determined by teachers' attitudes toward inclusive education and teacher training is one of several factors influencing these attitudes. Given the…

Although online courses have been a part of academia for nearly 30 years, they are still perceived as "different" than face-to-face instruction. Through in-depth interviews with four instructors, we explored how STEM faculty approach teaching asynchronous online undergraduate STEM courses. The faculty interviewed for this study viewed…

Debates continue about the positioning of design within research-driven universities. While the idea of autonomy has had a strong appeal, it is the bridging across established academic cultures that has proved especially effective for legitimizing design research and research education. Revisiting a conception of design as a 'Third Space' and…

This article asks whether the slow process of divesting Indian native schoolteachers of their traditional authority was only about new concepts and representations of education and knowledge. Following the methodological idea of constellations of affordances, emphasising a relational ontology, the article discusses whether changes in the shape and…
