This review maps patterns in research on Challenge Based Learning (CBL) in higher education (HE) between 2009 and 2020. How is CBL defined in HE settings? How is CBL in HE grounded scientifically in the research? The results show a shift of CBL from being a concept coined by a multinational technology company targeting learning in schools, to…

Debbie L. Hahs-Vaughn; Christine Depies DeStefano; Christopher D. Charles; Mary Little – American Journal of Evaluation, 2025
Randomized experiments are a strong design for establishing impact evidence because the random assignment mechanism theoretically allows confidence in attributing group differences to the intervention. Growth of randomized experiments within educational studies has been widely documented. However, randomized experiments within education have…

Alex Buckley – Studies in Higher Education, 2024
Despite a large amount of critical research literature, traditional examinations continue to be widely used in higher education. This article reviews recent literature in order to assess the role played by the approaches adopted by researchers in the gap between research on exams, and the way exams are used. Viviane Robinson's 'problem-based…

Jacques Ellul, a 20th century French academic, is best known for his writing on "technique," understood as both individual means to ends and an all-encompassing system that prioritizes efficient solutions to problems. While Ellul's terminology is not necessarily familiar in contemporary educational technology research, it represents…

Antar A. Tichavakunda – Review of Higher Education, 2024
Misinterpretations and caricatures of Critical Race Theory (CRT) abound in popular media and in higher education scholarship. Given the confusion surrounding what CRT is and is not, I write this conceptual essay as an invitation to engage seriously with CRT's legal foundations. I offer four guideposts to aid scholars in engaging the legal roots of…

Amber J. Dood; Field M. Watts – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Solving problems in organic chemistry often requires the consideration of reaction mechanisms. As such, much research has been devoted to the examination of how students consider mechanisms when solving various types of organic chemistry problems, such as predicting the products of a reaction or proposing a synthesis. This article provides a…

Trans* and genderqueer student retention and liberation is integral for equity in undergraduate education. While STEM leadership calls for data-supported systemic change, the erasure and othering of trans* and genderqueer identities in STEM research perpetuates cisnormative narratives. We sought to characterize how sex and gender data are…

Navé Wald; Tony Harland; Chandima Daskon – European Journal of Higher Education, 2024
This paper examines how higher education researchers approach writing the rationale and justification for their work published in journal articles. A common way for establishing this justification is through claiming a gap, but the problem is that it is often hard to find a research gap, and if it is included, there is too often no explanation for…
