This paper discusses ideas for incorporating the study of happiness and other measures of self-reported or subjective well-being (SWB) into undergraduate economics courses. We begin by motivating why students of economics would benefit from learning about SWB, and then proceed to provide examples of ways to introduce this topic into different…

Do your students struggle with low boredom tolerance, lack the confidence and skills needed in social interactions, or find it hard to collaborate? Are you seeing more behavioral disruptions, a wider range of learning challenges, and increased absenteeism? Today's classrooms need to move beyond traditional teaching methods; they need strategies…

Teachers consistently grapple with how to make writing fun and engaging. While long-form writing has its value, research shows that balancing genre-based units with frequent, on-demand writing tasks to help children communicate effectively and reflect on their learning might be the key to success. "My Kids Can't Write" provides…

Students in U.S. elementary schools continue to experience difficulty learning to read, with some attributing these difficulties to a lack of alignment with the Science of Reading (SOR). Social media plays a prominent role in disseminating information about the SOR, serving as a platform for discussion and debate that reflects many tenets of…

The current study investigates whether vocabulary breadth, vocabulary depth, and vocabulary fluency contribute differentially to L2 reading and listening comprehension. One hundred and thirty-eight EFL learners first took three vocabulary knowledge tests that measured vocabulary fluency, vocabulary breadth, and vocabulary depth. Subsequently, they…

This study examined the pedagogical readiness of secondary school-based agricultural education (SBAE) teachers in California Central Region to support multilingual learners (MLs). Using culturally responsive teaching (CRT) and the sheltered instruction observation protocol (SIOP) as frameworks, we surveyed teachers to assess their familiarity with…

The paper presents research conducted among Turkish primary school classroom teachers regarding their personal and professional views about creating and using KeKeÇa body music games as educational tools. The core principles of the KeKeÇa body music approach -- embodiment, play orientation and arts integration -- are increasingly recognised as…

The 21st-century skills seek to develop learners who will be problem solvers in society. This paradigm shift requires the use of learner-centered strategies that emphasize collaborative problem-solving. To explore the effectiveness of such approaches, this study sought to determine how effective Wheatley's problem-centered approach would be in the…

This study examines the impact of AI, particularly ChatGPT, on academic integrity and assessment practices in higher education. As AI integration grows, concerns about its potential to undermine academic rigour and increase inequalities have surfaced. Through interviews with students and a lecturer, the research explores the benefits and…

Traditional assessment methods in tertiary education may not suit students' diverse learning needs, values, and preferences. Co-designing assessment with students may engage them more effectively. This scoping review determined assessment co-design processes employed in tertiary education, evaluated the impacts on student learning outcomes and key…

This article explores differences between women's and men's views on teaching and learning in undergraduate computer science studies at a Canadian university. The research focuses on perceptions and experiences about learning activities and teaching computer science and how students and teachers view these aspects as valuable for these activities.…

Previous research has demonstrated that stereotypes associated with the female gender can impact technology and engineering education results. However, it remains unclear whether these stereotypes affect other relevant factors in technology and engineering education performance. The research used quantitative methods to investigate the correlation…

The Research Excellence Framework is the United Kingdom's means of judging the quality of research produced in its universities and provides an indication of the 'state of the art' across subject disciplines. This paper reports on an examination of the submissions made to the Unit of Assessment for Education (UoA23), extracting outputs through…

The emergence of generative AI (GenAI) has illustrated that higher education needs to adapt to the technology. Its speed of evolution requires that we adequately prepare students for an ever-changing landscape. Toward achieving that aim, we draw on the concept of interpretive flexibility, where the interpretations, uses, and outcomes of a new…

This research aims to explore both the individual and combined relationships between the use of GeoGebra and productive disposition with students' strategic competence. The use of GeoGebra involves teacher-led activities designed to assist students in managing and engaging with learning, serving as a tool to enhance mathematics learning outcomes.…
