It has always been a crucial question as to what kind of education should be provided to practitioners working at different levels of public administration, starting from the street level onwards, and what kind of interactions should be used to develop their competencies once in office. However, especially in the last 30 years, as we have entered…

Ion transport, involving the diffusion and migration of ions within the electrolyte, stands as a fundamental concept in electrochemistry and serves as the driving force for electrochemical reactions. Electric double layers are critical in the fields of electrochemical energy storage and chemical conversion, constituting a central focus of…

Online courses and innovative teaching models have become increasingly important for China's higher education reform and innovation. However, their true effectiveness remains a subject of debate. This study analyzes the teaching outcomes of online courses and explores the impact of innovative teaching models on students' academic performance in…

Background: A consistent challenge in educational research is ensuring that published innovations are successfully integrated into the classrooms they aim to improve. The process of integrating new pedagogy into existing classrooms involves both a method of communication (journal articles, workshops, word of mouth, etc.) and faculty motivation to…

Industry 4.0 technological resources are tools used in everyday lives. In Higher Education, instructors need to recognize the value of these information and communication tools (ICTs) and integrate them to support teaching in any field of knowledge. In this study, the evolution of the use of technological resources in Translation &…

Background/purpose: Islamic Religious Education (IRE) in higher education serves as a foundation for shaping students' spiritual insight, moral reasoning, and critical reflection. However, conventional instructional approaches often lack contextual relevance and fail to engage learners deeply. This study explores the transformative potential of…

Background/purpose: This study examines the transformative and innovative roles of the teaching faculty at King Khalid University (KKU) in the context of the Fifth Industrial Revolution, with particular focus on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education. Materials/methods: The study utilized a survey research design,…

Purpose: Few resources exist to incorporate principles of modular approach to course design. This research aimed to help instructors by presenting principles for practical and empirically informed modular course design in engineering education. Design/methodology/approach: In the first phase, a systematic literature review was completed to…

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 article reports research into the everydayness of instructional design (meaning designers' daily routines, run-of-the-mill interactions with colleagues, and other, prosaic forms of social contact), and how everydayness relates to their pursuit of quality in online course design. These issues were investigated through an ethnographic case…

This research explores how boundary-spanning efforts in higher education can be expanded through the digital space and contribute to sustainability in higher education. By employing a qualitative case study design, we examine the journey of a Turkish public university's open education faculty, focusing on how the university has leveraged its open…

This paper presents a multi-faceted analytical Course Innovation Framework (CIF) that can help institutes of higher education analyze multiple aspects of course innovation. The CIF was constructed by integrating insights from literature, policy documentation and course-innovation practices at Wageningen University and Research in the Netherlands.…
