Given the ongoing shortage of world language teachers in the United States, growing attention has developed toward recruiting new teachers at the secondary and postsecondary levels. This mixed methods study examined why some university noneducation students involved in language study at a large public institution indicated they would consider…

The Resident Assistant (RA) role is unlike any other student position in the university setting. It is complicated, nuanced, and increasingly complex as the needs and expectations of residents and RAs rapidly change in a post-pandemic era of residence life. The role itself has been forced to evolve to address these changing needs. This thesis…

This study examines the visual design processes and strategies used by graphic design experts and non-design college students when applying visual design principles to compose an infographic. The focus is on the visual design stage, often reported as challenging for adult and young students (e.g., Fragou & Papadopoulou, 2020; O'Mahony et al.,…

Debugging is essential for identifying and rectifying errors in programming, yet time constraints and students' trivialization of errors often hinder progress. This study examines differences in debugging challenges and strategies among students with varying computational thinking (CT) competencies using weekly coding journals from an online…

Research into mathematics education at university level includes a wide range of theoretical approaches. This poses considerable challenges to researchers in terms of understanding and harmonizing the compatibility and commensurability of those approaches. The research community has already problematised and studied these challenges using…

This quantitative comparative study was conducted to examine if, and to what extent, differences in health and functioning and quality of life exist for community college students who complete an academic mindfulness course. Surveyed student responses were captured by the Quality of Life Index (QLI) (Ferrans and Powers, 1985), dependent variables…

This study examines the impact of migration processes on burnout among Ukrainian university academic staff during the full-scale war. A survey involving 836 participants from 164 higher education institutions revealed that 37% of respondents became forced migrants, either internally (24%) or externally (13%). Significant connections were found…

The study examines massive open online course (MOOC) students' engagement and learning challenges while comparing two groups: xMOOC, a structured course based on individual learning, and cMOOC, an interactive course based on collaborative learning. Applying a mixed-methods research design, data were collected via an online survey and…

Adaptive Comparative Judgment (ACJ), an approach to the assessment of open-ended problems which utilizes a series of comparisons to produce a standardized score, rank order, and a variety of other statistical measures, has demonstrated high levels of reliability and validity and the potential for application in a wide variety of areas. Further,…

Recruitment of high-quality international students requires meeting their career-related needs. The present study compares the career expectations of international students from various origins with those of their domestic peers. Data were collected from 23,950 students in Canadian Universities, 3020 of whom were international students. Results…

Mathematics Learning Support (MLS) has been widely available in Higher Education Institutions in the United States (US) for decades. However, until recently, there has been little research that considered the extent of provision. In this paper, we present the results of a survey of MLS with responses from 268 institutions across the US, which…

This research focuses on the study of the contributions of three of the most important Mexican higher education institutions -- National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education (ITESM), and University of Guadalajara (UDG) -- to sustainable development (SD) considering public information from…

Data science is inherently collaborative as individuals across fields and sectors use quantitative data to answer relevant questions. As a result, there is a growing body of research regarding how to teach interdisciplinary collaboration skills. However, much of the work evaluating methods of teaching statistics and data science collaboration…

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to challenges in high-impact extra-curricular educational practice. Using cross-national, large-scale survey data, this study discusses the current state of participation of high-impact educational practices (HIPs) among Chinese and American undergraduates, changes in this participation over time, and the differences…

Purpose: Sustainable development (SD) is becoming an important area of research in accounting education. This paper examines if postgraduate accounting students in the Greek context present different awareness of SD issues and if this is related to their Master's orientation. Moreover, it compares the results with other similar studies.…
