Supporting pupils' development regarding subject knowledge and disciplinary literacy is a complex and challenging task for teachers. Research shows that language-integrated physical education (PE) can assist children's language development. However, it tends to reduce the time for physical activity, which is problematic since youth's physical…

Both classical and contemporary definitions of education emphasise the development of learners and the discovery of their potential. The period of systemic education at all stages is an opportunity to seek this potential both at school and outside it. These are the circumstances of the development of abilities, interests and passions. In the…

Purpose: This study aims to identify the growth pattern of research literature, most influential authors, most impactful documents and most relevant topics on sustainable development (SD) in higher education management (HEM) from 2000 to 2023. Design/methodology/approach: The research approach used descriptive quantitative and bibliometric…

In recent years, higher education institutions have faced pressure to prioritize certain disciplines over others. In particular, there have been heightened pressures to emphasize disciplines that are in greater demand by students or perceived by the public as translating directly from degree to career. This report takes a longitudinal approach to…

In recent decades, college and university libraries have been called to demonstrate their impact on their institutions' teaching and research missions. One way that libraries can demonstrate their impact is by evaluating how library collections can influence faculty recruitment and retention decisions. This study builds upon an existing study…

This paper indicates a set of principles that inform the authors' approach to the national curriculum, and the work of the Curriculum and Assessment Review: The Review will develop a cutting-edge curriculum, equipping children and young people with the essential knowledge and skills which will enable them to adapt and thrive in the world and…

Learning gain in higher education, specifically the development of subject-adjacent skills, abilities and competencies, is of key scholarly and policy relevance. However, little research focuses on students' broad understandings of learning gain. This paper takes a phenomenographic approach to explore students' conceptions of learning gain, and…

This pilot study explores the potential role of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in enhancing the academic manuscript-to-journal matching process, focusing on Large Language Models (LLMs). Through a focused evaluation of LLM-based recommendation systems, the study analyzes their performance across 40 papers from four distinct disciplines:…

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the perspectives of university teaching assistants (TAs) regarding their preparedness to implement culturally responsive pedagogy (CRP) in undergraduate instruction. It aims to understand the extent to which TAs from Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) and non-STEM fields feel equipped…

The British Educational Research Association (BERA) has promulgated a concept of close-to-practice research that is seen as vital to defending and promoting education as an academic discipline. However, what is overlooked are the questions of what education is for and what educational practice is--questions that need to be addressed for any…

Internationalisation has moved to the core of universities' mission, emphasising the qualitative elements of internationalisation, which is "inter alia" evident in the implementation of an internationalised curriculum. The latter must be implemented following the constructive alignment model; thus, the framework for a…

Increasingly, internationalisation at home and internationalisation of the curriculum are adopted by universities across the globe but their systemic implementation is a complex process. For instance, academics and academic disciplines understand and approach internationalisation differently, as previous studies have shown. However, there is…

This qualitative inquiry examines the tensions that general education colleges face while initiating reform in China, how students characterize these tensions, and what conditions account for the tensions. The views of 18 college students were documented through individual semi-structured interviews to uncover the themes related to the tensions,…

With the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques, attitudes towards these two fields have begun to gain importance in different professions. One of the affected professions is undoubtedly the teaching profession. Increasing the levels of concern for artificial intelligence and attitudes towards machine…

Identifying student teachers' attitudes and anxiety toward artificial intelligence (AI) in regard to their field of study might be helpful in determining whether and how AI will be employed in their future classrooms. Hence, this study aims to compare pre-service STEM and non-STEM teachers' attitudes and anxiety toward AI. In this quantitative…
