Discipline-based education research (DBER) constitutes bridging theoretical knowledge and educational practice to advance learning while accounting for the contextual features and nuances that are important to a discipline. DBER literacy enables faculty members to understand and apply evidence-based instructional strategies to advance student…

National data shows that despite gains over the past twenty years, females remain underrepresented in the engineering workforce. Education's role in supporting the engineering pipeline cannot be ignored. Middle school teachers who lack integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (iSTEM) efficacy are less likely to engage students,…

Team-based and problem-based learning to create a flipped classroom environment are innovative pedagogical approaches used in many healthcare curricula. Flipping the classroom has been found to increase student motivation to complete assigned readings prior to class, increase student engagement and participation, develop teamwork skills, and…

Purpose: The study aimed to determine whether an online asynchronous program can positively influence undergraduate communication sciences and disorders students' attitudes, beliefs, and actions toward advancing social justice. Method: The study employed a mixed-method design. Participants included 18 undergraduate students from two state…

Purpose: This study examines how Discord facilitates peer-to-peer learning in a university-level computer graphics course. It explores how the platform supports student engagement, peer feedback and mentorship in a technical, project-based setting. By analyzing survey responses and server engagement metrics, the study highlights Discord's role in…

During the COVID-19 pandemic, an exploratory mixed-methods study was conducted on the reading attitudes, perceptions, and outcomes of 50 first-year Japanese EFL university students participating in an online extensive reading (ER) enhanced curriculum using Xreading in order to better understand its affective and cognitive effects. Quantitative…

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of parent training via telehealth to decrease noncompliance in 3 children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder using the Applied Behavior Analytic (ABA) technique, Behavior Skills Training. Behavior Skills Training includes four critical components: instructions, modeling, rehearsal, and…

Paraeducators provide essential academic support for young learners of mathematics. However, they have limited opportunities to engage in professional development (PD) that is responsive to their instructional needs and role. To scaffold paraeducators' growth, project staff designed, tested, and refined a PD model specifically for K-3…

This study investigated the effectiveness of interactive videos on English language achievement and attitudes among Turkish secondary school students. While interactive videos have shown promise in language education, empirical evidence regarding their impact on secondary school students' achievement and attitudes remains limited. Using a…

Background/purpose: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and distance learning (EaD) have profoundly transformed education, redefining teaching methodologies and learning dynamics. When integrated into educational environments, these technologies facilitate equitable access to knowledge, enable personalized learning, and enhance pedagogical flexibility.…

The purpose of this project was to examine the impact of a novel hybrid computer-based dysphagia simulation training on student confidence and clinical decision-making in the area of adult dysphagia. We developed a pilot SBT database, including computer-based simulations utilizing real-life actors who simulated standardized adult patients with…

This mixed methods study explored how the making of animated models affected year 11 students' understanding of the effect of temperature on the equilibrium of an exothermic or endothermic reaction. The students' perspectives and the role of the activity in facilitating a metacognitive process were also examined. Teacher perspectives were also…

This report explores how college transition plans can support high school students increase their access to postsecondary degree, credential and certificate programs. Some subgroups of students find navigating the college planning and readying processes particularly challenging, including those from low-income backgrounds, in the foster care…

Although higher education is becoming increasingly diverse, the widespread adoption of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) remains limited. UDL provides a curricular framework designed to reduce barriers, account for learner's intersectional identities, and address variability. Using quantitative and qualitative measures, this research showcases…

Recent research shows the importance to teach students the self-regulated use of effective learning strategies at university. However, the effects of such training programs on students' metacognitive knowledge, use of learning strategies, and academic performance in the longer term are unknown. In the present study, all first-year pharmacology…
