Background: The positive learning effects of academic risk taking (ART) in higher education has been discussed since the 1980s. However, this may not apply equally for all social groups. Men and women may differ in the way they use ART to construct their gender identity. Students with different socioeconomic status (SES) may differ in their…

Drawing upon social learning theory, this study discusses entrepreneurial learning by including personal, social, and environmental factors as drivers of entrepreneurial learning and simultaneously exploring their mediator and moderator. Empirical tests are conducted using the data of graduate students in Taiwan. The test results show (1)…

Sleep is crucial for memory consolidation, underpinning effective learning. Targeted memory reactivation (TMR) can strengthen neural representations by re-engaging learning circuits during sleep. However, TMR protocols overlook individual differences in learning capacity and memory trace strength, limiting efficacy for difficult-to-recall…

Background: Adaptive educational systems have gained increasing attention due to their ability to personalise educational content based on individual learner progress. Prior research highlights that intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) and adaptive courseware models improve learning outcomes by dynamically adjusting instructional materials.…

Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is one of the standard analytical techniques used in EFL studies. It helps researchers to identify hidden constructs and check whether the survey instruments capture learners' beliefs, feelings and attitudes in EFL classrooms. However, many struggle with the application of EFA due to a lack of clear rationale for…

CLOVER by 4-H is an online learning platform that creates a space for youth to explore interactive learning experiences across a range of 4-H program areas. This article provides an overview of a pilot conducted around the implementation of CLOVER by 4-H to provide positive youth-development experiences in 4-H programming. As a result of the…

In Australasia, paramedicine education has evolved significantly over the last two decades. Anecdotal evidence suggests diversity across and within work-integrated learning (WIL) in entry-to-practice programs; however, the true extent of paramedicine WIL remains unclear. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of WIL practices in…

University students are increasingly using generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in creative tasks. Drawing from the literature on AI-human interaction and team creativity, the present study developed a moderated mediating model regarding the effects of generative AI on team creativity. To validate the developed model, a questionnaire…

The Learning Center at SUNY Cortland is redeveloping its tutoring session forms to reflect its philosophy of learning. The forms are modeled on the three phases of the tutoring session that encourage a reflective, collaborative learning process for both the students and the tutors. This Practice of Teaching and Learning shares five of the eight…

As we work to advance the field of second language (L2) pronunciation teaching and learning, we look to other fields that have guided advancements in the teaching of other aspects of language learning. Fields such as corpus linguistics, pragmatics, instructed second language acquisition (SLA), psycholinguistics, technology, and assessment have…

Teaching analytics (TA) is concerned with the use of analytical techniques to the learning-teaching process, the quality of the classroom environment, and the effectiveness of teaching methods used to improve student learning. The purpose of this study is to map (1) distribution of citations and publications by years (2) the most influential…

This paper describes a renal physiology review activity that can be completed during one class session. The activity is a tactile simulation in which colored beads represent various components of the blood, glomerular filtrate, tubular fluid, and interstitial fluid. Students simulate major functions of the nephron by moving beads between…

This study is located in the area of university work-integrated learning (WIL) management, in particular the implementation of both placement and non-placement WIL. The focus of the study is on enhancing WIL coordinators' understanding of WIL as a system, using activity theory as a framework, and to mobilize this understanding to address…

The traditional Elo rating system (ERS), widely used as a student model in adaptive learning systems, assumes unidimensionality (i.e., all items measure a single ability or skill), limiting its ability to handle multidimensional data common in educational contexts. In response, several multidimensional extensions of the Elo rating system have been…

Often, classroom teachers are asked to teach lessons and internalize them. But the real problem is if teachers do not know why they are teaching a lesson, or where the lesson originated, they cannot pivot, adapt, or tweak the lesson to meet the in-the-moment needs of the students in front of them. So, if younger and even experienced generations of…
