This study provides an overview of efforts to improve experiential learning outcomes by integrating the curriculum of an upper-level Project Management (PM) course with an Introductory Programming (IP) course using a game-making project. Students in the PM course applied PM methods and techniques while supervising teams of students in the IP…

While existing research has highlighted the benefits of reading and analysing comics in fostering critical thinking and multimodal literacy, few scholars have examined the pedagogical value of involving students in actively creating their own comics. Beyond developing technical and artistic skills, comics creation engages students in the affective…

As digital integration transforms modern society, equipping young learners with computational thinking (CT) skills has become an essential educational goal. However, many education systems face challenges in adapting curricula to include CT, particularly in early childhood education where resources, teacher preparedness, and instructional design…

The Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design (AICAD) is a consortium of 37 art and design schools in the United States and Canada. In 2015, AICAD established a postgraduate teaching fellowship to increase the racial and ethnic diversity of AICAD faculty. The fellowship has successfully created an onramp into art and design academia…

This study assessed the effectiveness of a learning module we developed for planning students aimed to enhance their understanding for design issues in public spaces faced by wheelchair users. The module involves training of students to effectively navigate the environment in a wheelchair before they experience the real outdoor spaces. Through…

This study aims to develop a didactic design using Engklek games to teach the concept of fractions in elementary schools. This study combines a cultural approach, namely Engklek games with mathematics in the concept of fractions. This study used didactical design research, with 2 research subjects, namely 20 students in grade 5 for learning…

This embedded single-case study investigates four secondary school L2 teachers' perceptions of metacognitive oracy instruction (MOI) over a two-year Design-Based Research (DBR) project and examines the effects of the project on their declared practices almost a year after its completion. Questionnaires, learner notes, and interviews to the double…

Travel restrictions regarding COVID-19 have created new challenges for organizing international scientific conferences. Most of the conferences have to be moved to a fully online format. In our study, we analyzed what challenges it created in organizing the International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies and Technology-Enhanced Learning…

Organizational demand for integrating gamification into existing electronic learning platforms has increased. The increased demand for gamification has become an issue for IS professionals when they must integrate it into electronic learning systems. This qualitative single case study explored the technical challenges information systems (IS)…

This exploratory case study reports findings on 20 middle-level science and mathematics teachers' perceptions of the effectiveness of a one-year project in which teachers engaged in using robotics and engineering design inquiries in their classrooms. Principled by Bandura's Social Learning Theory (SLT) and using mixed methods approaches, the study…

Background/Context: Men of color have been the focus of a growing number of research studies, as educators and policy makers attempt to address educational equity gaps along the P-20 pipeline. Compared with other educational settings, less attention has focused on how to increase persistence and graduation rates of men of color pursuing…

Accumulating evidence indicates that student attendance is closely tied to a range of educational outcomes, and yet millions of students are chronically absent each year.

The integration of technology within higher education, specifically teacher education, has become vital in preparing pre-service teacher for the 21st-century classroom. Literature shows that the integration of technology allows students to engage deeply with content and promote authentic learning. Over two years, pre-service teachers who enrolled…

Designing a mobile makerspace, the MakerBus, originated from our goal of bringing maker education to "all" students in K-12 schools, thus empowering students to believe they could create things and make social changes. This design case was guided by the human-centered design principles and the rapid prototyping instructional design…

This paper describes the design principles and implementation of a novel approach for a K--12 teacher professional development (PD) program. The approach integrates training focused on development of model eliciting activities (MEAs) within authentic engineering design tasks, collaborative 3D model design and fabrication, and inspirational site…
