Purpose: Historically, graduate education's goal was to prepare academics; now most science, technology, engineering and/or mathematics (STEM) graduate students (GSs) go on to nonacademic careers. STEM GSs must be equipped for success regardless of career aspirations, which can be done by strengthening GSs' professional identities. This study aims…

Graduate student parents are a unique subpopulation in higher education that accounts for a large proportion of graduate students. While student parents struggle to balance multiple roles, female students in STEM fields may face more significant barriers in balancing family and academic responsibilities compared to male graduate student parents or…

We present an interactive spreadsheet that supports teaching essential concepts in classification using the logistic regression (LoR) model for binary classification. The interactive spreadsheet demonstrates the capabilities of LoR by integrating computation with visualization. Students will reinforce concepts like probabilities, maximum…

This paper investigated principal interns' leadership work during the COVID-19 pandemic in Texas. We used data from one-on-one semistructured interviews to document the experiences of 21 principal candidates in spring 2021 through spring 2022. Participants' leadership work changed in four ways during the pandemic: striving, intensifying,…

High rates of active student responding and opportunities to respond are considered best-practice instructional strategies for learning. Many educators in higher education have shifted from teaching primarily in-person to either a hybrid or an online format over the past decade. The global pandemic hastened further shifts from in-person to online…

Information Literacy (IL) is vitally important for student success among college students. Graduate students are often assumed to have basic information literacy skills, but research has shown that this isn't always the case ((Bussell et al., 2017; Lamb, 2017, Hebert, 2018, Xie & Savory, 2022; Robertson & Felicilda-Reynaldo, 2015; Click,…

Objective: Few studies have investigated the maintenance of skills acquired in classroom-based clinician education. Using an advanced simulation-based clinical communication skill training program for postgraduate psychiatry education (ComPsych), we aimed to investigate skill acquisition through assessing changes in competence (abilities) and…

In this study, I explored the experiences of Black counseling students who studied abroad within the last 7 years. Although research has been conducted regarding the experience of undergraduate students who identify as Black, these voices have not been studied or researched in the field of counseling. This study is important because more students…

This study aims to examine the impact of students' entrepreneurial self-efficacy on their opportunity recognition capability after their exposure to classroom-based entrepreneurship education, leading to the development of intention to undertake an entrepreneurial activity. A detailed questionnaire was used to collect data from 351 students…

"Cuerpo-territorio" is a method stemming from Latin American geography, which recognizes the centrality of situated and embodied experiences as a form of knowing. We engaged with this method in the classroom to understand how students through their embodied and situated experiences had absorbed a post-development geographic course…

Critical reading and discussion are intellectual practices both expected within and developed through graduate education. Maturing these practices requires pedagogical support, guidance, and authentic contexts in which critical thinking and language can be negotiated with others. This article documents a relational approach to developing digital…

Purpose: The paper aims to close a literature gap by proposing a comprehensive conceptual soft skills competency framework for enhancing graduate intern employability through the cultivation of employability capital. Design/methodology/approach: The study employed a theoretical inquiry and delved into the existing literature on employability, soft…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a prerequisite for successful learning. However, studies have reported that many students struggle with self-regulation in online learning, indicating the need to provide students with additional support for SRL. This study adopted a design-based research methodology to iteratively design, implement, and evaluate…

Although research exists on traditional and virtual internships, there is a significant gap in understanding virtual instructional technology (IT) internships for graduate students. Specifically, this study addresses three key areas: (1) the unique benefits and challenges experienced by graduate students in virtual IT internships, (2) the…

The utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) among students is rapidly gaining prominence worldwide. However, Malaysia lags in terms of research and information in this area. This quantitative study aims to identify the factors that contribute to the adoption of AI among postgraduate students. The study focuses on the postgraduate student…
