Kirwan, Colette; Costello, Eamon; Donlon, Enda – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2022
Computational Thinking (CT) is a problem-solving process applicable across all disciplines. It has been defined as a 21st-century skill (Wing, "Communications of the ACM," 49(3), 33-35, 2006). Unfortunately, little pedagogical research is available to guide teachers and designers when devising a CT course. This study addresses this issue…

Zhu, Guangtian; Ding, Yi; Chen, Qingwei; Huang, Yuhan – Physics Teacher, 2022
Instructional videos are commonly used in both remote and in-campus curriculum. In order to investigate students' experience when learning with online instructional videos, we adapted a method called "UX curve" from the user experience studies in industrial design. In this paper, we introduce the procedure and data processing method of…

Samson, Sean; Hutchings, Catherine; Goolam Hoosen, Taahira; Thesen, Lucia – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
The research process is usually construed as linear, from registration to graduation, defined by completion within a certain period. This notion of a linear 'pipeline' has been critiqued for its embeddedness in a managerial discourse and the way it constrains transformation. Here, we focus on how writing support gets ensnared in 'pipeline…

Selznick, Benjamin S.; Mayhew, Matthew J.; Zhang, Lini; McChesney, Eric T. – Research in Higher Education, 2022
This study examines how collegiate climates and practices can promote innovation capacities among an international longitudinal sample of undergraduate women. Using a pre-test/post-test quantitative design with a reliable and valid dependent measure of innovation capacities, this study employs structural equation modeling to robustly estimate…

Eacott, Scott – Journal of Professional Capital and Community, 2022
Purpose: The pracademia movement is gaining increasing traction in education, particularly in educational leadership. Offered as a means to bridge practice and academia, questions remain as to whether it resolves or perpetuates the theory-practice divide. This paper systematically approaches this problem. Design/methodology/approach: Theoretically…

Wenzel, Kristin; Schweppe, Judith; Rummer, Ralf – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
The present work was conducted to re-examine the findings of Agarwal et al. ("Applied Cognitive Psychology," 22(7), 861-876, 2008), which showed that both closed-book tests (with feedback) and open-book tests increased learning outcomes after 1 week compared to simple re-study of the same materials. However, contrary to often found…

Zhou, Z. – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2022
This paper analyses a set of widely held beliefs concerning our understanding and teaching of critical thinking, a notion which is increasingly adopted by universities as their main educational goal. Existing scholarship on critical thinking throws up a vast heterogeneous collection of definitions of critical thinking. I propose a…

Katz, Brian P. – PRIMUS, 2022
Several major themes related to rethinking assessment emerged from a search of the papers published in "PRIMUS." Authors explored ways to change the stakes of assessments, often with outcomes-based grading and testing structures. They explored changing the "structure" of assessments by considering media beyond written exams and…

Ostendorf, Annette; Thoma, Michael – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
Following on from the already wide-ranging academic discussion about fostering critical thinking in students as an important component of a university's educational mission, this paper takes a particular look at didactic principles for fostering this critical thinking. We begin with a reception of Abrami et al.'s (2015) comprehensive meta-study of…

Van Camp, Carole M.; Batchelder, Sydney R.; Irwin Helvey, Casey – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Children should engage in 1 hr/day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) that results in increased heart rates (HRs) (CDC, 2022). However, precise individualized HR criteria for MVPA are not provided, and it is unclear whether observed behaviors classified as MVPA are associated with elevated HRs indicative of MVPA. The current study…

Mladenovici, Velibor; Ilie, Marian D.; Maricu?oiu, Lauren?iu P.; Iancu, Daniel E. – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
Over time, the academics' approaches to teaching (i.e., content- or learning-focused approach) were intensively studied. Traditionally, studies estimated the shared variance between the items that describe a behavioral pattern (i.e., the psychometric approach), defined as a learning- or content-focused approach to teaching. In this study, we used…
