This study examines how student-led game creation can serve as a transformative pedagogical model for integrating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into vocational education. Drawing on a semester-long, project-based course in a Chinese vocational university, the research investigates how designing educational games shaped students'…

As Project-Based Learning (PjBL) becomes a cornerstone of modern education, effective support and analysis tools are crucial for enhancing collaborative learning experiences and achieving educational goals. However, challenges such as managing overload related to the rigor and demands of project-based activities (e.g., meetings, writing reports,…

Achieving the ambition of global science education reforms remains an ongoing challenge. Ideas from other STEM domains, however, could spur needed innovation in science education. The maker movement -- or engaging in making -- and computer science education -- or learning computing -- have proven rich contexts for STEM learning. This review…

Career choices are shaped by students' experiences, knowledge, and skill sets across time, reflecting not only disciplinary interests but also exposure to evolving fields such as data science (DSC). Despite a surge in interest and enrollment in data science degrees, the United States faces a growing demand for data literacy across multiple…

In recent decades, the integration of emerging technologies, such as maker education and artificial intelligence, into the educational field has become a prominent area of research. The purpose of this article is to explore whether the introduction of generative artificial intelligence into the design process of maker projects by future teachers…

Young children's scientific attitude is a basic norm of human kind to cultivated actual learning which has been an expected to be a curious, motivated, generous and responsible person. The study aims to investigate scientific attitude of young children through literature-based and project-based learning organization (LPBL). Participants were 25…

A quick literature survey shows that Engineering education has been undergoing change since more than a hundred years ago, largely due to the needs of industry. The current drive for change is not very different and comes from the perception that Engineering graduates of today are not able to function effectively in the workplace. This is in part…

A team of researchers wanted to learn whether AP teachers using a project-based learning (PBL) approach could develop students' deep learning of knowledge and skills while preparing them for their AP exams. They used a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the Knowledge in Action (KIA) project-based curricula for AP courses. KIA students…

Introduced in 2013, the A.L.P.E.S. approach (AgiLe aPproaches in higher Education Studies) aims to apply agile practices to teaching. Agile approaches are project management practices for IT development. More pragmatic than traditional methods, they allow to be closer to the applicant and to involve him/her as much as possible. They offer a great…

This article describes a required capstone course for students in the Global Supply Chain Management (GSCM) Program at Bryant University, designed to prepare students for a career in supply chain management. Student teams work on semester-long projects for locally and regionally based companies. The projects are supported by all GSCM faculty who…

This paper presents the assessment of a continuous assessment in a project for the Dynamics subject using an analytic rubric. Dynamics subject should improve the ability of students to evaluate and solve problems using well-understood basic concepts implemented in a simple logical manner. It focuses on the proper interpretation and application of…

One of the most important features of professional activity is the ability to build a dialogue, organize business communication. The possession of communicative competencies provides the student with the opportunity to quickly achieve their goals through the implementation of speech turnovers and constructions that comply with the principles and…

This survey of faculty advisers examined major variables and findings of past research on student-run agencies using organizational theory. Larger agencies appeared to offer training in more formalized business procedures among a more diverse client base, found in previous research to be helpful to student-run agency graduates now on the job.…

Background: Design problems have long attracted researchers' attention for their potential to provide authentic learning opportunities. While we have methods for supporting students to learn through relatively simple engineering and design tasks, supporting students to address complex problems that they find and frame remains poorly understood.…

Desired affordances and appropriate product semantics are important when considering products that are easy to use and easy to understand. Despite affordances and product semantics being taught in some design educations, many designers in industry do not explicitly consider affordances nor product semantics during the design process. This is…
