Background: Scoping reviews are used to provide a wide range of evidence on a given topic, which serves as a useful methodological approach in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). The purpose of this study is to examine nutrition and dietetics programs specifically. In current practices, active learning strategies are recommended to…

Critical Action Learning (CAL) involves a deliberate choice to engage with emotions and power relations generated by people's attempts to learn. This choice recognizes that there are likely to be implicit limits to learning in organizations, especially where such learning starts to undermine established ways of thinking and working. One way to…

The aim of this article is to investigate teaching technology and design in education by exploring the discipline-specific simulator-based teaching practices of the maritime instructors at Norwegian MET institutions in light of a signature pedagogies perspective. The study is based on empirical material from a survey targeting instructors (n = 45)…

This study examines the effect of nature journaling on engagement patterns among non-traditional adult learners enrolled in an elementary science methods course. The research aims to bridge a gap in the existing literature by investigating the effectiveness of nature journaling in enhancing learning experiences for this specific demographic.…

Purpose: Since accreditation bodies emphasize program-level learning goals, there is often less focus on measuring learning at the course level. This study aims to offer a method for using experiential learning exercises to measure student engagement and learning outcomes in cross-cultural relations courses by highlighting which learning outcomes…

Higher education institutions can be key agents of innovation and regional development. Nevertheless, they are in a transition period: good, tried, and tested practices no longer work or do not work as well as they used to, while new, fully developed, and widely applied solutions are yet to emerge. In this paper, we investigate to what extent…

This study aimed to (1) compare the life skills and social skills of children before and after the learning intervention and (2) compare learning outcomes between the experimental and control groups. The study was conducted in a kindergarten in Northeast Thailand, involving 56 children who were randomly assigned to an experimental group and a…

The Barreto-Bridge Method (BBM) introduces an innovative approach to educational content development that addresses the increasing gap between traditional teaching methods and modern learning requirements. This methodology uniquely combines narrative storytelling with technical content delivery, creating an effective bridge between experiential…

This study highlights research trends and teaching methods in inquiry-based learning in Japan's elementary school curriculum of the "period for integrated studies" by conducting a scoping review of existing literature. Thirty papers that focused on teaching methods for inquiry-based learning were reviewed, and five subthemes were…

An animal reproduction course is a common degree program requirement of animal science majors though variation exists as to how learning outcomes are achieved. Universities either offer laboratory experiences as a part of their lecture content or as a separate course, which may or may not be required depending on the university, and others offer…

This paper explores the experiences of six Academic Skills Tutors (AST) responsible for facilitating action learning sets (ALS) on a postgraduate module. Our research focused on two elements: first, what did the tutors understand by the term critically reflexive practice in the context of business and management? Second, what has supported the…

The aim of this article is to provide a model for assessing service-learning projects mediated by a stakeholder approach to managing such educational pursuits. The method used for substantiating this proposal consists of matching the process of stakeholder analysis, customised for experiential learning, with the project scope and monitoring…

Effective pedagogy, when harnessed by educators, can empower students to become creative problem solvers, innovative thinkers, and lifelong learners capable of thriving in the dynamic and interconnected world of the 21st-century. This study explores the impact of the teachers' pivotal role in using Design and Technology (D&T) teaching and…

The domain of early childhood education has witnessed an increasing emphasis on developing coding and computational thinking (CT) abilities. Scholarly investigations have delved into appropriate approaches for enhancing these proficiencies within early childhood classrooms. The present study aims to investigate the impact of a digital story design…

Tuning fork tests, particularly the Rinne and Weber tests, are fundamental in assessing hearing loss. However, medical students often struggle with key auditory physiology concepts, such as the auditory masking effect and sound lateralization. This study evaluated a simulation-based teaching method to enhance first-year medical students'…
