The heterogeneity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) clinically and aetiologically hinders intervention matching and prediction of outcomes. This study investigated if the behavioural, sensory, and perinatal factor profiles of autistic children could be used to identify distinct subgroups. Participants on the autism spectrum aged 2 to 17 years and…

Considering the complexity of COVID-19 and post-pandemic learning conditions, how can we foster intercultural and real-world learning outcomes in design studios? This article explores the possibilities for situated learning experiences to prepare students for industry. Design sprints and designathons are intensive experiences used in studio…

Background/Objectives: This study explores the integration of entrepreneurship education (EE) into STEM curricula in higher education institutions (HEIs) in the Global South. Given the intertwined nature of STEM and entrepreneurship, this study explores the current practices, perceived outcomes, and challenges associated with EE integration,…

A college participant with a learning disability in the area of mathematics completed a strategy instruction intervention regarding mathematical problem-solving items. The participant responded to innovative interview questions regarding their approach to the mathematical problem-solving items (i.e., planning and reflecting) and their motivational…

A hallmark of effective teaching is that it grants learners not just a collection of facts about the world, but also a toolkit of abstractions that can be applied to solve new problems. How do humans teach abstractions from examples? Here, we applied Bayesian models of pedagogy to a necklace-building task where teachers create necklaces to teach a…

Background/purpose: This research is motivated by the difficulties often experienced by students in adapting to their first year of college, especially related to learning calculus. To address these difficulties, a solution needs to be found so that these problems can be resolved. One solution that is expected to yield optimal results in…

This study aims to examine the mathematical reasoning and proof processes of gifted students within the framework of Toulmin's Argumentation Model. Grounded in the Rich Teaching Model, the instructional design included seven differentiated lesson plans. The research was conducted with two 9th-grade students in a Science and Art Centre over 20…

Developing conscious control and self-regulation skills in the early years is an important factor in child development, although there is limited application of cognitive strategy-based approaches with young children in both clinical and non-clinical settings. This study investigated the Conscious Control Curriculum (3Cs), an approach to teach…

A pivotal recommendation of the Australian Universities Accord is the provision of financial support for students undertaking compulsory placements. The Australian Government has acted swiftly to implement this recommendation, announcing a means-tested Prac Payment scheme for students in nursing, midwifery, teaching and social work degrees.…

Dimensional analysis is an algorithm currently in use in almost every chemistry classroom in the United States. Chemistry educators use this procedural tool in the classroom with the intention of providing students with a reliable method to solve many of the relatively simple math problems they encounter. The unintended consequence of using this…

In the past few decades, the roles and missions of universities have evolved from traditional missions of teaching, research, and publication to engaging directly in solving day-to-day societal problems and contributing to economic development. The increasing demands of the knowledge-based economy and globalization have played a significant role…

Purpose: Racial disparities in schools' use of exclusionary discipline remain a persistent concern, particularly for Black students. Research examining the interplay of school factors on their influence on the use of exclusionary disciplinary punishments has overlooked the role that staffing instability, particularly in the form of teacher…

Reasonable host language proficiency has been shown as a key factor determining successful social and economic inclusion of refugee migrants within their new society. Many countries who provide settlement to refugee migrants thus offer them instruction in the host language of their new country. In Australia, refugee migrants are offered English…

The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the use of ChatGPT as a lesson-planning assistant with preservice teachers (PSTs) of secondary mathematics. PSTs asked ChatGPT to solve a mathematics problem and to assist with lesson planning in a microteaching context in a methods course. The PSTs first developed parts of their microteaching…

Increasingly, sustainability challenges in transdisciplinary courses are used to confront students with different dimensions of uncertainty, such as unpredictability, lack of knowledge, or ambiguity. However, little is known about how teachers adapt their teaching to scaffold students through such uncertainty. This design-based study investigates…
