The goal of this project was to reduce parent-child conflict and promote intergenerational harmony among Central American families who had experienced long-term parent-child separations in the immigration process. Through combining intensive case study of six families with experimental design, we show how a series of four workshops for immigrant…

The urban design courses of the urban planning career in the Universidad Simón Bolívar (USB, 2017) Caracas-Venezuela, are part of the backbone of workshops (4 of 11) and invite to the study of parts of the city whose problems demand to be resolved, according to traditional teaching methods. Considering this precedent and within the framework of…

This article examines the influence of vocational music education workshops on the learning motivation of popular and jazz music students in a self-determination theory's (SDT) framework. SDT illustrates that satisfying people's universal psychological needs has a significant influence on well-being and learning. Psychological needs will become…

Professional organisations in Australia are well placed to offer initial teacher education (ITE) students, in-service teachers, and tertiary educators the opportunity to engage in professional learning. This paper explores the importance of building collaborative relations with professional organisations to enhance ITE students' music knowledge,…

We report on data collected at 3 time points during a 1-year intervention designed to teach a purposive sample of geoscience faculty members (n = 29) from 27 universities throughout the United States how to identify and address issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in their departments. For the intervention we used mixed-reality…

In this article, we explore how supporting faculty writers can also help them to become more effective teachers of writing in their disciplines. Based on over ten years of facilitating and studying faculty at our writing retreats, we demonstrate how understanding and improving their own writing experiences can spark insight into their students as…

Despite the varied approaches to qualitative data analysis software (QDAS) instruction, teaching QDAS remains a challenge as students' skills with digital tools and understanding of qualitative research vary. In this paper, we report on our experiences providing QDAS instruction via an introductory NVivo 11 workshop to graduate students. To report…

If student-centered practices in reading and writing workshops work for students, why aren't these same practices used during mathematical instruction? Workshop models center the instruction on students and offer them the time and freedom to be independent in their work, moving toward high-level, inquiry-based learning. The authors experienced a…

With the advancements in broad-spectrum sunscreens and the recent bans on benzene-based sunscreens due to their environmental toxicity, there has been a push toward broad-spectrum sunscreens containing in organic active ingredients. In this study, a procedure was developed to analyze the particle size and size distribution of inorganic active…

Postgraduate education has grown enormously worldwide, which has led to supervisors being expected to take on a supervisor's role immediately upon graduation. But crossing the border from being a doctoral candidate to becoming a doctoral supervisor entails significant shifts in identity and an understanding of postgraduate pedagogy and…

Despite being an established practice in Higher Education (HE), the collection of feedback from students, to improve their university experience, has yet to find a unified format. Literature shows that, besides enabling collection of data on aspects of the university journey, feedback collection should also be an engaging experience for students…

While sexualized violence is perhaps one of the most common acts of aggression in imperial, colonial, and genocidal histories, it is also one of the most silenced, ignored, and under-addressed topics in the history curricula. Making sexualized violence visible is perhaps the biggest task and favor that history education can do to support efforts…

In this paper, I report the results of a study of a large-scale implementation of an evidence-based, objective-oriented approach to teaching via digital platforms among mathematics teachers in Denmark. The aim of the study was to investigate how these platforms affect the work of mathematics teachers and how emergent problems in this process can…

This study examined the effectiveness of a new empathy-oriented prototyping toolkit that was carefully developed to aid empathy gaining in students who find it difficult to express their ideas using only traditional paper-based prototyping materials. The toolkit has a simple structure and uses basic geometric three-dimensional forms made of…

This case study addresses the pedagogical challenges teachers face in incorporating elements of socioscientific issues (SSI) when planning science and mathematics lessons. In order to effectively plan and teach SSI lessons, teachers must develop pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) specific to unpacking elements of SSI such as identifying an issue…
