People often seek advice and social support. One approach for seeking advice is by submitting one's problems/concerns to an advice columnist. More contemporary forms of advice seeking are seen on discussion boards (e.g. Reddit) where individuals ask questions (often anonymously) and gather responses from others. This activity makes use of…

Delaney, Amy L.; Farris, Kristen L. – Communication Teacher, 2022
The study of communication through the framework of established theories is central to communication education, and most undergraduate communication programs include a course dedicated to surveying theoretical perspectives. This activity guides students to review and synthesize theoretical knowledge in a March Madness-style end-of-semester…

The Implementation of Group Investigation E-Task in Activities Learning (GIETAL) in Higher Education
Download full textNingsih, Sri Restu; Suryani, Ade Irma; Maulana, Ilham Tri – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2022
This study aimed to implement a learning model developed by the Group Investigation E-Task in Activities Learning (GIETAL) model for theoretical learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The learning process that previously used conventional methods has been changed to online learning. For this reason, a practical and effective learning model is…

Fox, Russell A.; Leif, Erin S.; Moore, Dennis W.; Furlonger, Brett; Anderson, Angelika; Sharma, Umesh – Education and Treatment of Children, 2022
School-wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (SWPBIS) is an effective and widely adopted school-wide framework for promoting positive behavioral, social, and academic outcomes for students. However, over the past decade, the degree to which schools were able to implement specific SWPBIS practices with fidelity has emerged as a…

An undergraduate laboratory was developed as part of the Drugs for Neglected Diseases "initiative's" Open Synthesis Network. This activity aimed to develop new compounds efficacious against visceral leishmaniasis. Students successfully synthesized, purified, and characterized ten different benzoxazole amides that were sent for biological…

With support from QuarkNet, high school students investigated the effect of overburden on muon flux by collecting data from Fermilab's Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) tunnel. Muon flux varied due to a change in overburden created by a 103-meter deep access shaft. A profile of muon flux as a function of distance from the access…

Cook, Nathaniel P. S.; Pantuosco, Angie – Journal of Economic Education, 2022
In this article, the authors describe an interactive classroom simulation that helps students learn some of the most important ideas from models of international trade with heterogeneous firms. Students make entry/exit decisions for individual firms with different marginal costs of production. The simulation consists of five rounds, beginning with…

Larison, Karen D. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2022
Although students in college science courses typically learn laboratory techniques and practices, few are taught about the communicative interactions that occur within the larger scientific community. In this paper, I propose that to educate a scientifically literate public -- one that comprehends the centrality of argument in the production of…

Shiver, Janet; Klosterman, Peter – Middle School Journal, 2022
One of the greatest conceptual difficulties faced by middle level mathematics students is developing a rich understanding of irrational numbers that includes recognizing that irrational numbers are truly real numbers with an exact value and an exact place on the number line. Developing a deep conceptual understanding of irrational numbers is…

Several studies have highlighted the positive effects that active learning may have on student engagement and performance. However, the influence of active learning strategies is mediated by several factors, including the nature of the learning environment and the cognitive level of in-class tasks. These factors can affect different dimensions of…

Levenson, Esther S. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
When it comes to choosing tasks, values can have a significant impact. This study explores teachers' values as they choose one task from among three that they believe will have the most potential to occasion mathematical creativity in the classroom. Participants' analyses of each task, as well as their reasons for choosing one task as most…

Andrews, Paul; Petersson, Jöran; Sayers, Judy – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
In this paper, motivated by the desire to understand which forms of parent-initiated activity are productively implicated in young children's mathematics learning, we present a methodological critique of recent research. Many such studies, based on assumptions that parent-initiated activities can be categorised as formal or informal, direct or…

Rollings, Kimberly A.; Kayongo, Jessica – Journal of Learning Spaces, 2022
This study examined whether three renovated academic library spaces encouraged group work as intended. Hourly observations and a questionnaire documented group work use, space preferences, and suggested improvements. Compared to the three renovated spaces, significantly more group work occurred in an unrenovated space that was more open, spacious,…

McGannon, Kerry R.; McMahon, Jenny – Sport, Education and Society, 2022
In the present study, post-partum embodied subjectivity of five competitive recreational mother runners of children under 6 years of age, was explored using narrative inquiry from a story analyst and a story teller position. This focus expands understanding of sport, embodiment and good mother ideals using narrative inquiry as a novel theory to…

Cegolon, Andrea; Jenkins, Andrew – International Journal of Lifelong Education, 2022
Finding interventions which can address the decline of cognitive function as people get older is of great importance to policy-makers, especially in post-industrial societies with rapidly ageing populations. We examine the impact of several different types of mentally stimulating activities on cognitive function in a sample of community-dwelling…
