The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the use of multimedia resources on vocabulary learning in English as a foreign language, and the secondary objective was to verify the influence of additional verbal workingmemory training. Following a quantitative approach, a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study was performed…

In this article, we state an interesting geometric conservation property between the three angle bisectors of three similar right triangles and provide a proof without words for its justification. A GeoGebra applet is also presented to help with the understanding of the progression of the proof from inductive to deductive stage.

Diverse learning groups in schools are a reality. In inclusive classrooms, teachers have to deal with diverse demands and therefore must adjust their teaching to the individual needs of every learner. Even though many teachers agree that the implementation of inclusive education is necessary as well as beneficial, at the same time many teachers in…

Change and continuity are among the fundamental concepts of procedural knowledge. Its relevance in history and history education requires that the concepts are appropriately reflected in historical reconstruction, teaching history and curriculum documents. This study, therefore, seeks to examine how the concepts of change and continuity are…

Purpose: The purpose of this conceptual paper is to challenge the introduction and implementation of policy mandates that threaten to reduce democratic, creative and responsive literacy pedagogies and practices in the early years. It draws on affect theory as a means to expand theorisations of literacy teaching and learning with approaches that…

Professional industry experience can be a benefit to kinesiology and sport management faculty members' pedagogy. Staying abreast of changes in the industry through direct experience can inform faculty and directly influence the quality of classroom instruction. This essay asserts that one way a sport management faculty member at collegiate…

Creators, creation, and audience are the main pillars of the creative process. This study offers an integrative vision that includes the three main components of the creative process by proposing a seven-stage creativity framework in design education. To bridge the gap between theory and practice, the proposed framework was applied in a major…

This book provides a vivid and comprehensive picture of loving pedagogy in second language (L2) education. It focuses on the theoretical and empirical foundations of loving pedagogy to set the ground for researching its ecological systems and measurement. Foreword, written by Elisabeth Vanderheiden, introduces pedagogical love as a transformative…

A frequent challenge that graduate and undergraduate students in chemistry, biology, and pharmacy laboratories face is accurately assigning proton and carbon peaks in the 1D and 2D Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectra of organic and pharmaceutical molecules. We propose a consistent, step-by-step approach to effectively assist students in…

Unethical behaviors on the Internet are increasingly prevalent, causing widespread tangible and intangible harms to society. To address this growing issue, implementing Internet ethics education in higher educational institutions presents a proactive and effective solution to this problem. Understanding the factors that motivate educational…

This paper describes a renal physiology review activity that can be completed during one class session. The activity is a tactile simulation in which colored beads represent various components of the blood, glomerular filtrate, tubular fluid, and interstitial fluid. Students simulate major functions of the nephron by moving beads between…

Often, classroom teachers are asked to teach lessons and internalize them. But the real problem is if teachers do not know why they are teaching a lesson, or where the lesson originated, they cannot pivot, adapt, or tweak the lesson to meet the in-the-moment needs of the students in front of them. So, if younger and even experienced generations of…

One of the core aims of inquiry-based learning (IBL) approaches to history education is to help students grasp how historical knowledge is constructed. Thus, IBL applications are usually justified through reference to expert historians' research practices. We argue that the current body of empirical research on historians' practices is limited in…

In printed English, there is some variability in the relationships between graphemes and the phonemes they represent. Learners who are sensitive to this variability learn to adjust their attempted pronunciation of an unfamiliar word such that they identify a real word that fits the context. This sensitivity and the ability to adjust attempted…

The aim of this study was to develop caregiver-friendly recipes for thickened liquids consistent with the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) guidelines using noncommercial thickening agents to reduce variability in preparation. Recipes were tested combining base and thickening agents, where base agents were measured in…
