Increasingly, the curricula of many clinical programs have been restructured to an integrated model in which foundational sciences such as physiology, pathophysiology, and pharmacology are taught side by side with clinical reasoning. Case studies are an excellent pedagogical strategy for enhancing such integration, especially if such cases are…

Entrepreneurship is considered a critical factor in stimulating economic growth and creating employment. Entrepreneurship education is viewed as one of the key instruments for increasing entrepreneurial intention and activities. However, it remains unclear which elements of entrepreneurship education are most influential in shaping a participant's…

Purpose: While research on language teacher cognition is increasingly developing, the scope of research on writing teachers' cognition is still limited, particularly on how teacher education influences their cognitions. The present study moves along this line of inquiry and investigates the impact of a teacher education course on second language…

Teachers are constantly involved in the act of decision-making in every moment of the classroom. These decisions are underpinned by pedagogical reasoning, which entails situated knowledge about particular teaching episodes and is reconstructed through teaching practice. The present case study sought to explore the pedagogical reasoning skills that…

This paper describes one 4-week long online language learning module which utilizes the animated documentary film "My Favorite War" (Burkovska-Jakobsen, 2020) and analyzes four students' final essays. The learning module was created considering ethnographic views of cultural inferences (Spradley, 2016), the framework of social space…

This paper makes a conceptual argument for using the Decoding the Disciplines research paradigm as a pedagogical innovation in the field of teacher education. It incorporates empirical findings from a research project in which teacher candidates conduct Decoding interviews to deepen understanding of historical thinking and learn pedagogical…

A goal of introductory physics for life sciences (IPLS) curricula is to prepare students to effectively use physical models and quantitative reasoning in biological and medical settings. To assess whether this goal is being met, we conducted a longitudinal study of the impact of IPLS on student work in later biology and chemistry courses. We…

Understanding how power is communicated by instructors and students is important to student motivation and learning. To examine how power is communicated online by instructors and how receptive (or not) students are to this, I examined four online graduate seminars using two analytical tools: community of inquiry (COI) theory and McCroskey and…

Content-based instruction is a favoured methodology for approaching L2 language instruction. Although vocabulary development is one language area where advanced learners could grow, there is little research focusing on vocabulary instruction in content-based Spanish L2 courses at US universities. This study analyses a corpus of 25 hours of…

Post-communicative methodologies nowadays provide instructors with multiple curricular models to reimagine their syllabi, design creative assignments, and prepare their lessons. Yet, challenging topics are still often avoided, fearing students' limited language proficiency. Conversely, compelling content--carefully presented and pedagogically…

This article discusses dis/ability and physical education teacher education (PETE). The aim is twofold. First, I explore how dis/ability is problematised in PETE syllabi from nine Swedish universities. Bacchi's "What's the problem represented to be?" approach for analysing policy texts is used. The centre of attention thus shifts from a…

The article explores the position and the ideological background of the study of the history of education in Macedonia over a span of almost 80 years: from the late 1920s, when it was introduced as a subject in teacher schools, until 2004 when the last change of the study of history of education as scientific discipline was made due to the Bologna…

A defining feature of honors education is meaningful engagement within and across disciplines, yet significant challenges for creating and sustaining meaningful transdisciplinary research remain. One such challenge involves a nuanced understanding of a discipline, or what educational researchers call "disciplinary literacy." This article…

Data Mining (DM) is one of the most offered courses in data analytics education. However, the design and delivery of DM courses present a number of challenges and issues that stem from the DM's interdisciplinary nature and the industry expectations to generate a broader range of skills from the analytics programs. In this research, we identified…

Teachers' sense of efficacy refers to the beliefs held by teachers (pre-service and practicing) for completing the tasks associated with teaching. This belief is bound by the nature of tasks which includes, but is not limited to, the content, students, and context that frame teachers' practice. In this investigation, we explored 25 pre-service…
