The focus of this case study is the question, 'How can research integrity be taught in higher education?' I will share my experience of teaching this topic over the past three years, organising the various dimensions of research integrity under the broader theme of integrity in science, specifically in terms of norms, functions, and unity. Norms…

This research describes the results of the implementation of the Challenge Based Learning (CBL) with the Design Thinking (DT) methodology, evaluating its stages for the co-creation of solutions to challenges in business contexts combined with an innovative institutional strategy in the higher education. This methodology, articulated with the CBL…

This article explores a universal issue in higher education: how in practice can we secure the most productive relationships between the research universities pursue and the education they provide? It opens by drawing from three recent international literature reviews summarising research on research-teaching links, sometimes termed a 'nexus'. It…

Although dialectical thinking plays an important role in daily life, this ability among adults, including university students, is not always well developed. The present study used three experimental designs to explore efficient ways to promote university students' dialectical thinking ability. The results showed that university students'…

Since March 2020, French Business Schools have been heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic due to imposed sanitary restrictions. Higher education deployed different online and offline teaching settings to ensure the continuity of students' learning. Literature proposes hybrid teaching, which combines face-to-face activities with online…

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019 marked a turning point in the delivery of education globally. The exponential rise in positive cases left the majority of universities in the developing world overwhelmed as they had inadequate or no infrastructure to enable them to switch to emergency delivery modes. This paper applies the five-stage…

The institutional drive to implement innovation in higher education institutions, in line with the goals of the European Higher Education Area, is insufficient to achieve the effective implementation, as it is conditioned by a number of factors, most importantly, the motivation and training of university teachers. This study aims to analyse the…

Students who have to retake courses at university are often not only low achieving, but also unmotivated and lacking in self-confidence. In this study, we present the first report of a teaching strategy based on the implementation of the flipped classroom model, team-based learning, and frequent testing strategies in groups of students retaking a…

This article analyses an approach to student researchers of their curriculum as a module in an undergraduate initial teacher education programme. It shows the rationale for bringing such curriculum research into a taught programme to widen the range of possible participants. Rather than the outcomes of the student researcher project, the article…

The study explored students' reflections with flipped learning in a university. Further, it examined relationships among learning styles, personality traits and satisfaction from flipped learning classes. For the quantitative survey data, 123 undergraduate students who enrolled in a flipped communication course were administered questionnaires.…

Innovation in learning and teaching is an everyday requirement in contemporary higher education (HE), especially in challenging subjects such as mathematics. Teaching mathematics to students with limited experience of formal mathematical instruction is a good example of a demanding pedagogical undertaking where innovatory practice can help HE…

Although there is considerable interest in learning spaces in higher education, the relationship between spaces and learning is complex and not well-understood. Despite challenges, such as the lack of comparability between studies, we need to learn more about the interaction of space design and learning. A crucial step towards this is the creation…

In this century, all educational efforts strive to achieve quality assurance standards. Therefore, it will be naive to deny the existence of problems in architectural education. The current design studio critique method has been developed upon generations of students and educators. Architectural education is changing towards educating critical…

Through the lens of implementing team-based learning (TBL), this paper unpacks elements of 'excellence' and investigates the influence of individual belief systems, the learning environment and institutional context in influencing perceptions of 'excellence'. We analyse the adoption of a student-centred approach to teaching and explore the…

Internationalisation and assessment and feedback are one of the main research agenda in the UK higher education. The study reports the Higher Education Academy Economics Network-funded research for international students' experience with peer assessment and feedback innovation. The Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) theoretical…
