Many graduate dance programmes require a pedagogy course to ensure that graduate students, who are future faculty, have the capacity to successfully educate the next generation of dance practitioners. The majority of graduate dance programmes in the United States prioritise Western theatrical forms, yet increasingly there is a call to decolonise…

This article explores how relationships of care, trust and hope might be fostered in a social innovation design course at a South African university of technology. Rather than shy away from the challenges of our uncertain world, the paper proposes feminist pedagogical strategies that seek to nurture students' capacity for trust and hope, rather…

We examined the ways that faculty members developed as inclusive instructors as a result of participating in the Inclusive STEM Teaching Project (ISTP). The ISTP is a free, Massive Open Online Course designed to train STEM faculty members in inclusive teaching. Semi-structured interviews (n = 80) with course participants from multiple disciplines…

This study examines how collegiate climates and practices can promote innovation capacities among an international longitudinal sample of undergraduate women. Using a pre-test/post-test quantitative design with a reliable and valid dependent measure of innovation capacities, this study employs structural equation modeling to robustly estimate…

First-year engineering students are often introduced to the engineering design process through project-based learning situated in a concrete design context. Design contexts like mechanical engineering are commonly used, but students and teachers may need more options. In this article, we show how sustainable building design can serve as an…

There is an increasing need to train and retrain personnel that would be saddled with the capabilities, professional and skill developmental requirement that meets societal needs.

Area should be experienced, not simply calculated. This task invites students to physically experience areas and the spatial relationships between them, as well as their own community.

Use the techniques presented here to enhance students' capacity to produce outcomes that enable future growth and to develop the critical foresight that permits learners to adapt to societal disruptions resiliently and empathetically.
