The dichotomy of education still exists in the last decade in Indonesia; meanwhile, education must prepare ideal human beings for the nation's future. This study aims to explore and examine the improvement of Madrasas by integrating traditionalism-modernism in Indonesia to produce competitive graduates. Through document reviews, interviews,…

The present study involved an experimental inquiry wherein the researcher examined the possible impact of "textual cues" and "summarising scaffolding" on cognitive load, mental model, and learning performance. The study was conducted on a sample of 122 primary school pupils from Hyderabad, India. It commenced on 20 January 2021…

Given the emphasis placed on laboratory reform and student engagement in authentic science practice, this manuscript outlines the development of a hybrid project-based laboratory (HPBL) curriculum centered around specific instructor goals and provides examples on how those goals were met by the experiments and how the change in curriculum affected…

This paper examines two activities in a weeklong Professional Development (PD) focused on implementing mathematical play in kindergarten classrooms. Though the weekly activities all had different goals, the two focal activities (Pattern Blocks and Create-a-Monster) were designed specifically to be both playful and mathematically engaging for the…

Virtual reality (VR) as an emerging technology has extreme potential to revolutionize online higher education for adult students through immersive and engaging learning experiences. Lower cost and advancing research in VR technology and immersive simulation software offers unique opportunities for adult students to engage in a virtual learning…

Very few studies have examined how to culturally and linguistically (CL) adapt professional development (PD) programs in assistive technology (AT) for Latinx teachers serving young children with disabilities. The purposes of this article are (a) to present an iterative design of a CL-adapted PD program, (b) to examine the impact of this program on…

We examine the soundness of the idea and practice of engineering accreditation and look critically at the process as implemented in regions around the world. Based on our analysis of the effectiveness of current approaches, we suggest areas and methods for improvement and propose guidelines for a revised accreditation framework that addresses some…

This study aims to discover the impact of a technology-based course on the self-efficacy and knowledge levels of pre-service English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher about integrating Web 2.0 tools into the foreign language teaching process. The study also intends to determine the self-efficacy and knowledge levels of the pre-service EFL…

The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies heralds a transformative era in education. This study investigates the integration of AI tools in developing educational assessment rubrics within the 'Curriculum Design Development and Evaluation' course at the University of A Coruña during the 2023-2024 academic year. Employing an…

In the modern educational landscape, the integration of gamification into hybrid learning environments has emerged as a promising approach to enhance student outcomes. However, there remains a lack of comprehensive frameworks for designing gamified hybrid courses and validating their impact on student outcomes. This paper proposes a design…

The field of wind science and engineering (WSE) in relation to civil engineering (CE) applications is still considered relatively young and thus has been taught only for about 50 years in some academic institutions. Therefore, it is unsurprising that there are limited wind engineering (WE) tracks within CE programs worldwide, and no semblance of a…

This study examined how technology integration in teacher training programs affects cultural and linguistic competency development among pre-service instructors. Based on the Cultural Competence Theory and the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge TPACK model, this research utilized a systematic literature review approach to integrate…

Using self-efficacy (SE), andragogical, and pedagogical frameworks, the goal for this study was to explore instructional designer (IDer) narratives in response to questions focused on their perceptions of instructional design (ID) practices for creation of workplace education and training assets, specifically intentionality in the use of transfer…

This article presents a new design and delivery strategy for teaching a course in higher education. For this purpose, I adapted a framework developed for business strategy success by Wrona and Ladwig (2015) to an educational context. To illustrate how the framework operates in the new context, I implemented video recorded interviews with industry…

Curriculum mapping can be used to visualize, align, and assess the ability of online degree program graduates to meet stated learning outcomes (Rawle et al., 2017). Though consensus has yet to be established on standardized outcomes for curriculum in some disciplines (e.g., criminal justice), educators remain in charge of preparing current and…
