Today's elementary teachers are expected to teach the engineering practices included in the National Research Council's Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards. Recent studies have indicated that teachers are less self-efficacious in teaching engineering than in other subject areas. Project Lead the…

Purpose: This study investigates the role of the engineering education environment created by the implementation of the "Plan for Educating and Training Outstanding Engineers" (PETOE) on the professional capability development of engineering students from the perspective of students' experience. Design/Approach/Methods: This study uses…

Embedded instruction facilitates individualized support and promotes meaningful participation for all children, irrespective of their abilities or disabilities, by integrating learning opportunities into the natural, everyday activities of inclusive preschool settings. This study aimed to investigate the impact of a coaching intervention on the…

Supplemental instruction (SI) confers student success, as represented by grades, knowledge retention, and student engagement. However, studies often report professional, not undergraduate, program findings. To measure these effects, students studying human anatomy at a university in Ontario, Canada, attended structured (peer-assisted) or…

Reading is fundamental to academic success, but international reading surveys indicate current pedagogy fails a fifth of adolescents, disproportionately from lower-socioeconomic groups.

Nursing educators have been asked to incorporate teaching and learning strategies that prepare nursing graduates to work in healthcare environments that require higher levels of thinking and clinical judgment. It is imperative that nurse educators use evidence-based teaching strategies that reflect the actualities of nursing practice. The flipped…

This project drew upon evidence in the field of professional learning and development (PLD) in education to create and evaluate a PLD program to foster the use of narrative intervention evidence-based practices by classroom teachers working with students with language and literacy difficulties (LLD) in Grades 3 through 5. The primary aim of the…

Screen-based simulation (SBS) can complement traditional nursing courses. We compared the effect of innovative virtual environments not widespread in French nursing schools on self-efficacy, quiz performance, and self-regulated learning behaviors. This quasi-experimental study involved 1183 student nurses. Participants were divided into an…

This article investigates the pedagogical and instructional design process of a hybrid course in preservice teacher education. Guided by the Community of Inquiry (COI) framework, the course design aimed to foster social, cognitive, and teaching presence in a hybrid learning environment. A narrative self-study approach was employed to reflect on…

Considerable effort has been exerted to identify effective instructional methods to teach reading in the early grades. Ideally, these practices would be provided to students by knowledgeable educators. However, many educators lack linguistic knowledge of the English language and essential concepts about early literacy acquisition that predict…

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of explicit and analogy learning on preschool children's running, long jump, gallop and balance. The participants were 43 preschool children randomly assigned to the analogy learning group (22 children) or the explicit (21 children). In the explicit learning group explicit instructions were…

In today's society, technology plays a fundamental role. More and more activities of daily life are being developed with the help of technology. One of the emerging technologies in recent years is augmented reality, (AR) which generate great benefits for people with disability. These visual technologies provide safe and controlled environments in…

Being a social worker requires facing many social upheavals, juggling with organizational changes, and working with various populations with increasing complex social issues.
