Ongoing research has attempted to discern the optimal way to teach surgical anatomy. This study investigated the relative effectiveness of drawing and clay modeling on learning spinal anatomy among medical students. Participants were recruited from a first-year medical school class to participate in an optional educational session in their regular…

Undergraduate students may possess underdeveloped knowledge about water systems, particularly groundwater. The use of models and modeling have been employed in undergraduate classrooms to support students' learning about water. However, effective modeling requires spatial thinking skills, which undergraduate students may also need to develop.…

Background: The threat of a disaster or potential for a disaster is something that may be experienced by individuals globally. Schools are places of daily mass gatherings which make them an ideal target for mass casualty, natural disasters, and biological incidents. Methods: An integrative review using Whittemore and Knafl's model was conducted to…

Conceptualizing mentoring beyond a traditional one-to-one mentor-mentee model, we utilized a constellation framework with collaborative co-mentoring among faculty, staff, near-peers, and community partners. We conducted a multi-method study to examine faculty, staff, and students' perceptions of mentoring relationships, and we focus in this…

Recent years have witnessed an increasing emphasis on integrating computational thinking into school curriculums. This study deals with suggesting a course model including data collection tools for evaluating teachers' pedagogical content knowledge in teaching computational thinking via teaching robot programming. Taking the advantages of virtual…

Using an information-processing approach, the current innovative study examines a model for the prediction of organizational learning mechanisms (OLMs), linking school principals' cognitive complexity and OLMs through the mediating effect of an innovative climate. The model was examined for three levels of principals' cognitive complexity (high,…

The purpose of this study was to test the career self-management model among Turkish undergraduate students. For this purpose, data were collected from a group of 428 Turkish undergraduate students attending a state university located in Istanbul province. A structural equation model was used to determine the variables that associated with career…

This article explores how the new Curriculum for Wales offers an alternative to the traditional status quo in the schooling of industrialised societies by providing an opportunity for inquiry-led approaches. It argues that mainstream schooling is beholden to dominant discourses that have an alleigance to a factory-model of education. As a…

The early detection of students' academic performance or final grades helps instructors prepare their online courses. In the Open University Learning Analytics Dataset, I found many online students clicked the course materials before the first day of class. This study aims to investigate how data mining models can use this student interaction data…

Background: Early literacy and numeracy skills are developed during early childhood. Among the many factors that influence the development of such skills, the literature shows that the executive functions, especially the response inhibition (RI)--that is the capability to block out or to tune out what can be considered irrelevant information or…

While disability is recognised by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) as an evolving concept, the language of positive behaviour support has not kept pace with the current human rights-based approach. The widely-used terms 'challenging behaviour' and 'behaviours that challenge' imply that the behaviour…

Purpose: The paper aims to clarify the relationship between perceived contextual issues and the self-efficacy beliefs of the employees with e-learning engagement for their competency development. It proposes a model for the banks to utilize their e-learning interventions more effectively by managing the identified contextual issues.…

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has threatened the capability of academic institutions to continuously deliver quality education despite the worldwide lockdown implemented to curb the transmission of the dreaded disease. As a result, institutions are forced to take advantage of supplementary digital technology to support online…

Many teachers reported improved skills in using technology as a direct result of teaching virtually during the pandemic (Bushweller, 2020). The authors wondered which uses of technology would continue as teachers transitioned back into face-to-face classrooms. Recognizing that mere incorporation of technology into instruction does not guarantee…

The research entitled The Development of Learning Activity through KWDL Technique Combined with BAR Model to improve problem-solving Ability in Math for Secondary 1 (Grade 7) Students made use of a quasi-experimental design wherein the experimental group was exposed to learning activities through the KWDL technique combined with BAR model while…
