NMR spectroscopy is traditionally taught to students during Organic Chemistry as a tool used for the determination of structures after synthesis. However, modern NMR spectroscopy has many important applications beyond structure elucidation, including molecular profiling of complex mixtures as biofluids and food samples. In this experiment,…

In this systematic review of the research literature on engineering employability, curricular and pedagogical arrangements that prepare graduates for work in the twenty-first century were identified. The research question guiding the review was: Which curricular and pedagogical arrangements promote engineering students' employability? The…

Academics without PhDs are common in developing countries and among lecturers from marginalised communities, yet the literature on doctoral education largely ignores them. This qualitative study aimed to address that gap by interviewing academics without PhDs in South Africa and Australia. Their narratives of betwixt and betweenness contribute to…

Effective preceptor-guided clinical orientation programs (PGCOP) help new graduate nurses (NGNs) across the theory-practice gap to provide safe, effective, and efficient patient care. This constructivist-designed qualitative program evaluation study explored NGNs' and preceptors' perceptions of a local hospital's PGCOP as an effective transition…

This quantitative correlational study explored the factors influencing graduate level student dropout intention across disciplines. Based on previous retention research that focused on undergraduate populations, this study attempted to investigate how that research could be applied to a graduate level student population in a private, non-profit,…

This study examined the ramifications of the skill gap and the ways in which it can be mitigated. It touches upon numerous facets of employability, such as the skills needed and the strength or weakness of a university's curriculum. The stark differences between how employers perceive recent graduates and the ways in which graduates perceive their…

The qualitative study used two case studies to explore the career search experience of college graduates with autism. The study included interviews with college graduates diagnosed with ASD, interviews with family members of the college graduate, and interviews with hiring supervisors of the college graduates with ASD to glean information…

Background: Soft-skill competencies are essential for successful careers. However, recent graduates lack in soft skill development. The reason may be because there is no set list of soft skills. Soft skills are subjective and poorly defined in Health Administration and competency models are not defined in terms of attitudes, behaviors, or…

Supporting novice educators in developing culturally sustaining and universally designed literacy practices, which are also socially situated and contextual, can seem challenging in online learning environments without access to classrooms. This study sought to understand how novice educators developed literacy teaching practices infused with…

Teaching and learning in times of crisis like the Coronavirus pandemic is less about crisis management and more about humanizing the crisis. Restorying COVID begins with understanding our students and ourselves as whole people, and their multidimensional needs--academic, socio-emotional, and socio-cultural, including racialization, social class,…

The socioeconomic gap in participation at university is an enduring policy issue in South Korea, as in many other countries. However, less attention has been paid to the socioeconomic gap in the outcomes from tertiary education. This paper addresses this gap in the literature, using the Korean Education and Employment Panel (KEEP) data to…

This study highlights how 19 senior student affairs officers (SSAOs) perceived social justice and inclusion (SJI) content in higher education and student affairs (HESA) graduate programs. While SSAOs across identities and institutional types viewed SJI as a programmatic strength, they named tensions between advocacy and administrative work and…

The information age witnessed the democratisation of education with an exponential growth in the enrolment of postgraduate students in almost all universities around the world. However, high attrition and low completion rates among students have been an immense threat to the key performance of the university system. The main purpose of this study…
