Many influential figures in the Appalachian Craft Revival (1896-1937) lauded handwoven overshot coverlets as one of the finest expressions of the region's handicraft traditions (e.g., Hall 1912). As a wave of university-educated women arrived from the North and more affluent communities in the South to establish settlement schools, folk schools,…

Problem-based learning (PBL) is a pedagogical approach that helps learners develop (meta)cognitive and social skills. In PBL, students identify problems, design strategies, implement them, and reflect on their resolution process. When applied in English language teaching (ELT), students interact throughout these phases, developing language…

In this systematic review, we examined interventions for increasing prosocial employment skills for adolescents with emotional and/or behavioral disorders (EBDs). Many studies have focused on social skills related to employment for individuals with intellectual disabilities or autism spectrum disorders. However, there is a paucity of research on…

This study was conducted to further explore the possible mechanism behind the finding that rural teachers are disadvantaged for participation in inquiry-based working compared to their urban counterparts. School organisation factors are the most obvious mediating variables since they can be easily connected with wider school regional features and…

Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are high-impact educational practices designed to engage students in authentic research while fostering the development of critical skills for persistence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). A key, yet underappreciated, component of successful CUREs is the role of…

Despite growing research interest in digital multimodal composing (DMC) in L2 contexts, its developmental trajectory remains largely underexplored. To address this gap, we conducted a scientometric review using CiteSpace on 128 publications indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection. Our analysis reveals a rapid growth in DMC research over the…

Experiments are considered to be essential components of science learning. This research aimed to investigate trends in the use of science experiments in online learning. A systematic literature review was carried out, with data sourced from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases. The reviewed documents were journal articles published between…

Background/purpose: Student interest in mathematics plays a significant role in supporting their motivation and academic achievement. However, research in this area remains scattered and lacks a clear direction. This study was conducted to identify the development, trends, and research gaps in mathematics interest research between 2021 and 2025.…

The internship is a crucial component of principal preparation. This systematic research review aims to build on two prior syntheses of existing research on principal internships. We employed an exhaustive review of five search engines for empirical studies on principal internships in the United States between 2010 and 2023. Our search yielded 92…

This study investigates the ability of future primary school teachers to design experiments when confronted with everyday life problems, particularly those involving complex phenomena or counterintuitive outcomes. Data were collected using a content analysis approach from the written assignments submitted during a Science Education university…

Although cognitive and social processes influencing students' scientific thinking skills have been extensively studied in recent years, the interplay between these processes remains insufficiently understood. This study examines the mediating role of research collaboration in the relationship between epistemic curiosity and critical thinking, as…

The U.S. must find ways to engage all of its population in advancing scientific and technological work. This must include efforts to admit and educate a more diverse array of students in terms of pre-college opportunity and preparation, as well as provide supportive environments and experiences to help these students succeed. For these efforts to…

Statistics for psychology is a challenging aspect of undergraduate psychology courses but poorly understood in experiential terms. Accordingly, we drew on Brookfield's 'four lenses for critical reflection' to acquire insights from first year psychology undergraduate free text survey responses (learner lens), and psychology educator survey free…

The article analyses the changes and trends in the scientific systems of countries and regions in the Global South shifting the focus away from the BRICS countries. The research is underpinned by the critical scholarship on the globalisation, internationalisation and regionalisation of science and higher education. The empirical analysis is…

Purpose: This study aims to examine the absorptive capacity of an elementary school participating in a multi-year research-practice partnership (RPP) focused on increasing data science instruction through curriculum development. This research considers how data science initiatives might be sustained with fewer supports from the research team as…
