Purpose: The content of training (art-based method) and instructional strategies (blended learning) can improve business school students' creativity and attempts to determine how training can be maintained using longitudinal tracking. The study aims to answer (1) whether the incorporation of art-based methods enhances the creativity of students…

In a partially flipped, hybrid introductory physics course where students had a free choice between attending any lecture session in person or via video conferencing, and where recordings of the lecture sessions were made available for asynchronous viewing, a total of 16 learner attributes and their relationships were investigated. Five of these…

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a mass shift to online, virtual, and hybrid learning. Soon thereafter, educators and researchers realized that the pandemic would result in significant paradigm shifts in teaching and learning as classrooms moved into online and hybrid spaces. Two years later, very little change has occurred in…

Drawing on three action research case studies involving several African universities, this article critically explores how academics converted their previously pure classroom-based courses for delivery through blended learning. The case studies reflect resource-scarce contexts where limited access to digital technology and the internet poses…

Teachers' beliefs about education influence practice and vice versa. Teacher educators should be particularly attuned to the association between educational beliefs and practice. Teachers' beliefs about education have been widely studied, but investigating how a team of teacher educators put a shared vision on blended learning into practice is…

All stakeholders in schooling, including teacher educators, are slowly realizing that the pandemic has created a sea-change rather than a temporary discontinuity. The pandemic-as-endemic world is neither a return to pre-pandemic normal nor a new-normal. Instead, we are now in Oz rather than Kansas, and--contrary to what some parents, many…

As districts nationwide transitioned online to deliver remote or hybrid instruction as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Internet has become an increasingly important space for K-12 students, teachers, and many other stakeholders. This brief discusses the utility of Internet metrics to measure K-12 district websites and its usefulness for…

What makes impactful online professional development for rural teachers learning creativity and arts integration? In this paper, we describe the results of a mixed method-study that tested a new hybrid online and in-person teacher training experience with K-12 teachers in the Northwestern region of the United States of America in 2019-2020. The…

With the growing interest in undergraduate research as a high-impact practice, and the recognition that college education is increasingly moving online, this book -- the first to do so -- provides a framework, guidance from pioneering practitioners, and a range of examples across disciplines on how to engage remote students in research. Two…

The Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic posed challenges for laboratory-based courses. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore students' experiences, as related to engagement, in a HyFlex laboratory course that was designed for on-campus and online students to learn together. The research questions were: 1. What are the students'…

This qualitative case study sought to uncover a deeper understanding of middle school teachers' perceptions of hybrid instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically as it related to the implementation, successes, challenges, and barriers. This study took place at a middle school in the suburbs of a Midwestern city. The data was derived…

Effective science communication is a common goal scientists share, but explicit science communication curriculum is lacking in undergraduate science programs. Although course-based research experiences (CUREs) can provide opportunities for students to practice their communication skills, the literature lacks consistent investigations of oral…

For many academic programs, achieving authentic learning environments is difficult because existing learning activities are often structured around artificial contexts and presented in ways that fail to connect with the students in ways that they perceive have value in their lives (Luo, Murray, & Crompton, 2017). As a result, these inauthentic…

Civil engineering, specifically transport engineering, is a continually evolving profession. Recent developments in technology have resulted in more automated and visual problem-solving techniques, involving the use of computer programs and simulation, as practitioners and researchers move away from traditional pen and paper approaches.…

In the framework of DiMPAH (Digital Methods Platform for Arts and Humanities), an online course "e-spect@tor for performing arts" has been designed to make available digital methods created by the Digital Humanities project "The spectator's school" to the scientific community and the students. The main aim of this course is to…
