As international students increasingly pursue higher education in English-dominant countries, developing their academic writing skills is crucial. However, limited access to individualized feedback remains a challenge. AI-driven tools and self-assessment offer promising solutions, making feedback more accessible. This study involved 50…

While higher education institutions have updated their policies and issued guidelines to support ethical use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), translating these into effective classroom practices remains a significant challenge. This study explores how educators in Australian higher education are taking GenAI into their teaching to…

Using two conceptual frameworks--boundary work and field theory--I examined how academic scientists' strategies for demarcating science from the market have implications for professional socialization. I focused on how field theory's emphasis on group differentiation, power, and rules within fields can inform analysis of boundary work. The study…

Objective Structured Teaching Exercises (OSTEs) are used to evaluate feedback skills. OSTEs are simulated teaching scenarios using standardized learners and trained facilitators to deliver immediate feedback to participants. As per researchers' limited knowledge, there is no published assessment tool to assess the feedback skills using OSTE in…

International graduate students serving as teaching assistants constitute a major component of the teaching of undergraduate students at U.S. universities, particularly in engineering. Prior literature on these international teaching assistants (ITAs) generally characterizes their linguistic experiences as challenges. This characterization can be…

Purpose: This paper focusses on the leaders' ability to recognise and empathise with emotions. This is important because leadership and particularly transformational leadership are principally focussed on an individual's social interactions and their ability to identify emotions and to react empathetically to the emotions of others (Psychogios and…

After the pandemic necessitated a move to online learning and brought forth a multitude of traumas for students and faculty, faculty teaching in the graduate Composition program at San Francisco State University came together to redesign our graduate courses. This program profile describes a process by which the redesign efforts were organized,…

Available evidence suggests that learners' level of emotional intelligence and academic buoyancy are associated with components of behavioural and emotional engagement. Recent work has provided preliminary evidence that the relationship between emotional intelligence and student engagement is mediated by academic buoyancy. Therefore, the current…

This exploratory study aims to analyse the nature of peer feedback during a collaborative writing assignment, and to identify the possible effects of feedback on the revision of a text written by university students in a blended learning environment. Under analysis are two different graduate courses in academic writing, during which, over a period…

This manuscript focuses on how students make sense of proofs. Participants were students who engaged in peer-review conferences of each other's attempted proofs in a graduate-level real analysis course for mathematics teachers. Building on the concept of distance from conversational analysis, we distinguish how three types of distance (epistemic,…

This study sought to understand how a leader's leadership is affected by their salient identities. To achieve this, the study employed a qualitative paradigm using a phenomenological methodology. Ultimately, the study worked to craft a shared understanding of how identity is experienced by leaders within the context of their own leadership.…

Conventional teaching methods, such as 2-dimensional PowerPoint presentations, are among the most common anatomy teaching tools. However, these methods do not allow depth perception of anatomical structures. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to report the incorporation and student's perception of a 3D anatomy app to an Occupational Therapy…

Background: Employing High Impact Practices (HIPs) in the curriculum will keep the students engaged and will boost their learning outcomes. Study Aim: Explore the students' feedback on two HIPs practices and measure the impact of the studied HIPs on the course's outcomes. Methodology: Two HIPs strategies were applied to the graduate students of an…

Although many studies have investigated the overarching benefits of curriuclum internationalisation in various forms, there have been few investigations of students' perspectives on changing university policies towards internationalisation. In this study, we considered master's students' perspectives on two changing internationalisation policies…

Global events have changed the fundamental way teachers teach and students learn in the 21st century. Teacher preparation programs have necessarily offered their programs through varied modalities. One specific framework for teaching in different modalities is the community of inquiry framework (CoI). In this study, we utilized CoI to study…
