Improving the mathematical skills of undergraduate Engineering and Information Technology (EIT) students has been an enduring challenge for educators. Lecturers continually implement new strategies that try to overcome the challenges encountered in teaching university students with varying levels of success being encountered. This paper provides…

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted various aspects of our lives causing economic, social and psychological challenges all around the world. A sector that immediately responded to this unprecedented change was education, which migrated to online platforms. This study explored the attitudes, perceptions, and experiences of a group of students…

Due to the challenges of all-round development, higher-education students are increasingly demanding more flexible learning that goes beyond the on-campus/online dichotomy. However, university students miss learning opportunities because of the conflict of time and space. Blended learning is an effective way to create more learning opportunities…

The COVID-19 pandemic thrust the field of school psychology into unchartered territory--navigating how to continue to serve students in need via a virtual format while attempting to adhere to best practices. During this time, the team at Indiana University began implementing trauma-informed multitiered systems of support (TI-MTSS), more…

Health science represents the fastest-growing industry in the United States, a trend not predicted to slow for the next decade. The high demand for health professionals has led to increased demand for anatomy and physiology (A&P) courses and a transition to hybrid-style labs to meet the necessary increased enrollment without increasing the…

The COVID-19 pandemic presented many challenges for educators. In Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs), where students learn about the scientific process by working on novel research, few resources for remote learning were available. Here the impact of changes to course delivery format on student learning gains in a…

This research aims to 1) study remote learning activities with competency-simulated classroom to promote the online teaching abilities of computer teacher students, 2) assess the suitability of learning activities, and 3) find out the effectiveness of learning activities according to the criteria of 80/80. Participants were 24 third-year students…

This article describes the experiences of Molloy College teachers in the field and alumni who joined teachers in their respective Long Island districts to transform education and provide service and leadership during COVID-19 school closures. The COVID-19 experience taught the alumni and all educators a few things about online teaching that…

Recent advances in smart devices and online technologies have facilitated the emergence of ubiquitous learning environments for participating in different learning activities. This poses an interesting question about modality access, i.e., what students are using each platform for and at what time of day. In this paper, we present a log-based…

Physical field trips have long been used in education, but virtual field trips are increasingly being used to enhance them. This article focuses on the use of mixed reality to enhance a physical field trip before, during, and after the field experience as part of a project in teacher professional development. The context is a field trip to a…

The Creative Learning Initiative (CLI) is a city-wide collaboration between MINDPOP, the City of Austin, Austin Independent School District (AISD), and more than 100 art and cultural organizations dedicated to equitable access to creative learning and the arts for every student in Austin. The CLI model is grounded in research showing that arts…

The present study examined whether parental involvement within the framework of the parent-teacher relationship as established through Conjoint Behavior Consultation (CBC) enhances the academic achievement of students diagnosed with High Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder (HFASD). Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, this study began with the…

The expansion of information and communication technology (ICT), combined with the recent changes in education due to the COVID-19 pandemic, has led to new pedagogical practices. These technological advances provide new and enhanced learning opportunities for students but present both challenges and opportunities for educators. This…

During the COVID-19 pandemic, schools and teachers had to change how they taught overnight. Career and Technical Education (CTE) teachers had a particularly difficult task of shifting their classes to an online format due to the hands-on nature of the courses. This qualitative study examined the perceptions of high school CTE teachers and how…

To prepare students for college and careers, the Common Core Mathematical Practice Standards propose teachers engage students in classroom discourse where they make sense of mathematics by working collaboratively and communicating their thinking. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to explore the relationship between a blended learning…
