I here read the Iranian film "Hit the Road" through the eyes of the French philosopher Alain Badiou. In doing so, I hope to illuminate the triadic link between cinema, philosophy and "paideia" (ethical-political education). To explore, I adopt a philosophical methodology with the double ambition to reveal the latent pedagogies…

Uncertainty complicates the issue of climate change. Climate change education should therefore help students to address uncertainty. The question, then, is how to educate students about that which is 'in the dark'. Here, we might find a role for games as a resource for climate change education. This study explores which climate change-related…

In this article, we entangle with Aaron Kuntz's book "The Responsible Methodologist," extending the conversation beyond research into the realms of teaching, learning, and daily lived practices as twenty-first century academics.

Recent literature on mentoring revises the long-held notion of a dyadic, master-apprentice affiliation to better reflect the fluid, flexible, and even non-hierarchical dynamics that occur between mentors and mentees today.

This tooling is largely underutilized. Classes beyond the bare required minimum are often not taken advantage of, leaving…

Valence shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) as explained in most textbooks predicts that substituents bonded to a central atom in AX[subscript n]E[subscript z][superscript c] species (A = main-group central atom, X = substituent, E = lone pair on central atom, c = charge) will change their X-A-X angles to bend away from the lone pairs.…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced museum educators to draw on new resources, which has led to the increased use of social media as an educational tool. This qualitative study explores museum education through social media using an adapted museum education theoretical model. The more specific aim is to address the approaches, experiences, and…

Medicinal chemistry is an integrated discipline that primarily concerns the design, discovery, synthesis, identification, and interpretation of biologically active compounds at the molecular level. To assist undergraduates in understanding the core subjects of medicinal chemistry, we introduced a closed-loop education mode combining fundamentals…

Social psychology is a core component of the British Psychological Society accreditation of psychology programmes. Typically, the teaching of social psychology relies upon…

Case-Based Learning (CBL) in science education has developed rapidly. This paper reviews the literature on trends in implementing CBL in science education. For this systematic review, we followed the recommendation of the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) framework. Data were obtained from the ERIC,…

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the implementation of case-based learning compared to traditional lecture in increasing critical thinking skills in an undergraduate Anatomy & Physiology I classroom. Throughout the course of one semester, five units were taught with the addition of a case study as an…

In this article, we introduce city walking as a social work pedagogical methodology that has relevance for engaging with critical feminist inquiry and macro practice. Through two case studies, we examine how city walking offers an alternative social work pedagogy to the often sedentary practices of teaching macro practice or structural social…

This small-scale action research acts on the calls for more inclusive and holistic higher education.
