Background and Aim: There have been significant higher education curriculum reform initiatives over the past 30 years across different global regions in response to a range of drivers such as employability, global citizenship, and sustainability. In professions such as engineering, a key focus has been on holistic graduate attribute development…

Computational thinking, a critical cognitive process from computer science, has gained prominent role in various academic domains, particularly mathematics. It involves problem decomposition, pattern recognition, algorithmic thinking, and abstraction. While previous studies have extensively explored computational thinking at the primary and…

This research proposes "racioreligious linguistic ideologies" to conceptualize systems of belief that conflate categories of language, spirituality, and peoplehood, with implications for contemporary education. While theories on the semiotics of race (raciosemiotics) and on the interplay of language and race (raciolinguistics) are…

Research suggests that bilinguals often have weaker vocabulary in their second language compared to that of monolinguals (e.g., Hoff, 2013). It is thus important to identify factors that may facilitate vocabulary learning for bilinguals. One suggested factor is the presence of orthography while learning new oral vocabulary. The current study aims…

Although language skills have gained unparalleled momentum in language education, there is a paucity of research on one of the most significant subskills: vocabulary. Due to the underestimation of an efficient method to learn foreign language vocabularies, scant research attention has been dedicated to exploring the best vocabulary learning…

The concept of affordance is helpful to understand the advantages that can be offered to users. However, little is known about the affordable Micro-Credential courses (MC) offered by Higher education (HE) providers. This study utilizes Gibson's affordance theory as a lens and aims to validate the affordances of MCs for HE. Furthermore, this study…

Innovations in teaching and collaboration between businesses and universities can lead to improved learning outcomes and various benefits in international business (IB) practice. The Triple Helix Model (THM), incorporating government involvement, serves as a fundamental framework for this collaboration. This research, grounded in the THM and…

In the context of an increasingly interconnected world, the incorporation of humanistic approaches in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and English as a Second Language (ESL) classrooms proves essential for fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment. This narrative review explores the significant positive impacts of humanistic…

This research is a grounded theory study that aims to generate a theory to account for Thai EFL pre-service teachers' materials development. The participants were twenty-two EFL pre-service teachers. Three rounds of stimulated recall interviews, consisting of five main research questions, were implemented. The resultant data was then analyzed…

School-based psychosocial group programs need to more adequately address the linguistic and cultural needs of emergent bilingual learners. Although research underscores the importance of culturally responsive and linguistically inclusive approaches, a comprehensive framework guiding the adaptation, implementation, and evaluation of school-based…

Understanding the psychological factors that contribute to teacher identity is crucial for developing effective teacher training and support programs.
