Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly AI chatbots like ChatGPT, have sparked significant discussions in higher education regarding their impact on teaching and academic integrity. This study examines the integration of ChatGPT into a philosophy of education course for first-year Education students at a Swedish…

This article compares the conceptualisations of creativity between the early childhood policy frameworks from Iran and Australia to demonstrate how cultural differences influence understandings and representations of creativity. The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. 2019.…

In this study, we compared the effectiveness of two instructional approaches--modeling and generative tasks--within case-based instruction (CBI) in developing preservice teachers' classroom case analysis skills. Forty preservice teachers were randomly assigned to engage in CBI with either a modeling or generative task, working through three…

Recently, there has been an increased interest in the associations between theory of mind (ToM), the ability to infer others' mental states, and academic functioning in middle childhood including scientific reasoning. This study follows this trend and addresses two gaps in the literature. First, it examines whether individual differences in ToM…

In an era of rapidly advancing technology, integrating digital tools into literacy instruction has become a vital component of effective educational practice. This article presents findings from a case study examining how digital technology was incorporated into the literacy block of a first-grade classroom. Through sixteen hours of classroom…

Background: Before they graduate, higher education students must demonstrate technical skills in different procedures, where health degrees such as physiotherapy stand out for their practical nature. Procedural skill development requires students to uptake feedback continuously, which is costly in terms of time and effort. Although the…

Advances in brain imaging have led to a paradigm shift in neuroscience research, moving from focusing on individual brain structures to investigating neural networks and connections. However, neuroanatomy education still tends to concentrate on discrete brain regions. Two separate experiments in undergraduate neuroscience courses investigated…

This study investigates the correlation between learning styles (Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic [VARK]) and information processing patterns (Parallel, Sequential, Top-down, and Bottom-up) among Senior High School Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) learners, specifically in the context of Biology. The…

Knowledge and its acquisition are central to the field of curriculum studies, but the ways in which empirical studies of pedagogical approaches relate to theories of knowledge acquisition are under researched. This paper reports the outcomes of a rapid evidence assessment about the impacts of "experiential learning" (EL), regarded by…

Mid-career faculty are tasked with becoming the next generation of faculty leaders and mentors with minimal support and limited opportunities for professional growth and mentorship (Baker et al., 2019; Hamilton, 2022). To support mid-career faculty, the Office of Teaching and Learning (OTL) developed the University Teaching Leadership Fellows…

Knowledge integration is a common challenge in medical education, but its importance is even more pronounced in times of crisis and prolonged disruption of the educational process. In this article, we explore how the use of creative and generative teaching and learning activities, including presentations, drawing association maps, role-playing,…

The Stitching Urban Vision (SUV)1 method is innovative, facilitating children to co-create a sense of empowerment. SUV© fosters an understanding of negotiation using a shared vision. SUV© sits apart from traditional negotiating methods that often result in delayed, unresolved, and fragmented ideas. Adults often resist reaching collective decisions…

Despite the importance of parallelism concept in understanding advanced geometric concepts, past studies have constantly reported poor mastery of this concept. To pinpoint students' current states in the progression of parallelism concept acquisition, this study aimed to profile students' knowledge states and model their learning pathways.…

As emotional factors gain increasing prominence in second language acquisition (SLA), few studies have offered a comprehensive bibliometric synthesis of this evolving research area. To address this gap, the present study analyzed 931 articles indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) from 2000 to 2024. A combination of bibliometric…

Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) have drawn significant attention from educators and researchers. However, its effects on learners' programming performance, self-efficacy and learning processes remain inconclusive, while the mechanisms underlying its efficiency-enhancing potential are underexplored. This study…
