This article describes the educational, operational, and practical implementation of an upper-division undergraduate studio-style course centered on the subject of game production. Specifically, the article addresses the course organization and processes, the institutional context for the course (i.e., its situated role in the larger curriculum),…

It is well-known that the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model has a family of periodic orbits, but does not possess limit cycles and therefore the model is said to be structurally unstable. The Lotka-Volterra model is a special case of a much larger group namely the quadratic population models and it can be shown that none of them can produce limit…

An interdisciplinary Pop-Up Learning Community (PLC) allowed students from various disciplines with different levels of content knowledge to discuss their perspectives on and beliefs about climate change. The impact of this event on students' climate change beliefs was gauged by a survey from the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication. This…

Commissioned by the Coalition for Networked Information, this report examines the role of research universities in addressing complex societal challenges. It focuses on climate change, which is best characterized as a "wicked" problem. Such problems are difficult to define and lack clear solutions in part because they involve multiple…

Purpose: This paper explores the implementation gap in CEP using a post-colonial perspective, focusing on a case study in Brazil. Methodological approach: By employing a qualitative case study approach, semi-structured interviews with frontline educators are applied. Responses were analysed using content analysis with a descriptive design.…

Background: Disembedding is a crucial spatial thinking skill in visual arts and mathematics education. It is important in creating and analyzing artworks by separating a figure from its background, as well as for solving geometric problems where shapes must be viewed from new perspectives. Drawing upon research in psychology, arts, and mathematics…

This narrative explores outdoor learning for post-secondary students, the myriad health benefits of nature experience, and the importance of engaging with the more-than-human world. Some comparisons are drawn between indoor- and outdoor-based learning, and the affordances the latter offers for place-based wonder, emergent learning, and the…

It has become critical for businesses to integrate sustainability to remain relevant in a world under threat from biodiversity loss, climate change, and social inequality. Business schools seek to understand how their education programs influence sustainability and the achievement of the sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study explores…

We examined the impact of engineering design integrated science (EDIS) instruction, aligned with the Opportunity to Learn (OTL) framework, on students' learning in science and engineering design, and their perceptions of engineering design process. The study also sought to identify how instruction varying along teacher level factors in the OTL…

Doing anti-racist pedagogy presents many challenges. This is especially the case for faculty at small liberal arts colleges (SLACs). The authors argue that through teaching theory related to anti-racism and social justice in the classroom, faculty across disciplines can come together to access other worldviews and ways of being in their teaching.…

Mathematics plays many roles in physics and physics education. While these roles have previously been extensively discussed in the physics education research community, no systematic picture of the multifaceted considerations has yet been formed. To gain a comprehensive overview of the previous studies on the topic, we conducted a systematic…

The purpose of this study was to investigate students' perceptions of their learning experience through engagement in an active learning strategy termed "deliberative activity," designed to foster the development of moral reasoning. This strategy was implemented in an elective ethics course within a higher education setting. To evaluate…

Research internships, designed to enhance students' scientific knowledge, research skills, and confidence, typically focus on a single science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) discipline and miss the opportunity to facilitate the development of interdisciplinary collaboration skills crucial for translational research. As part of…

China's 2022 curriculum standards issued by the Ministry of Education prioritize a "competency-oriented" education that highlights the role of science education in improving students' scientific literacy and competency. However, the implementation of science education in secondary schools remains fraught with challenges. This study is…

In this article, we examine the challenges and opportunities perceived by university staff when planning and executing interdisciplinary activities for students in the problem-based and project-centred environment at Aalborg University. Using a qualitative approach, we interviewed 15 participants from nine pilot projects organizing…
