The present simulation study examined the statistical properties (namely, Type I error and statistical power) of various novel randomized single-case multiple-baseline designs and associated randomized-test analyses for comparing the A- to B-phase immediate abrupt outcome changes in two independent intervention conditions. It was found that with…

Recent studies reveal people from marginalized groups (e.g., people of color and women) continue to earn physics degrees at alarmingly low rates. This phenomenon is not surprising given reports of the continued perception of physics as a masculine space and the discrimination faced by people of color and women within the field. To realize the…

Dominion of the scarcity principle as the basis for economic analysis is virtually absolute in teaching the introductory course in economics. This supremacy is neither valid nor desirable. Two compelling alternative foundational concepts for economics are "uncertainty" and "inequality." These alternatives lead to vastly…

The objective of this research was to develop an educational sustainability assessment model using the Delphi technique. The research participants were an expert panel and stakeholders of educational projects. The research instruments consisted of an open-ended questionnaire and assessment forms. The frequencies, medians, quartile deviations,…

Mixed methods research (MMR) designs are well suited for answering policy-relevant questions, yet they remain underutilized in public policy and public administration scholarship. To provide a deeper understanding of the effective use of such designs, this article examines the prevalence of MMR in public policy and public administration journals,…

As the athleticism and physical demands of the art of dance continue to progress, dancers are facing growing physical and mental challenges. To overcome various challenges, it is critical to integrate cross training into dance education. In this article, we discuss what cross training is and its importance to dancers and offered suggestions for…

Determining student motivation within the context of Learning Analytics is fundamental for academic students to realize their educational goals. We aim to perceive the student's motivation state at a high level of abstraction and act accordingly to deal with motivation issues. We investigate how Model-Driven Engineering paradigms capture the…

Three practitioners -- a film-maker, a photographer and a film curator, all working in higher education, teaching film production, photography and film studies -- discuss their reflections on co-convening a decolonising pedagogy workshop-conference hosted in May 2019 at HDK-Valand, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. They draw from their unique…

Many Americans dream of a college degree, but earning one requires time and money. As one solution, prior learning assessment (PLA) documents college-level learning gained outside the classroom for academic credit and can make the difference between earning or not earning a college degree. However, the literature lacks an integrative and…

An essential skill for STEM undergraduates is the ability to understand the world by manipulating, visualizing, and analyzing data to make or evaluate claims. Current online debate, without peer-reviewed literature, explores which of two common R syntax environments (base R or tidyverse) is best for teaching novice R users. In an in-person…

Learning from video lectures is becoming a prevalent learning activity in formal and informal settings. However, relatively little research has been carried out on the interactions of learning strategies and social environment in learning from video lectures. The present study addresses this gap by examining whether learner-generated explanations…

The purpose of this article is to give the history teacher who is interested in or passionate about music--but nervous about transforming that passion into a useful classroom lesson--some resources, tools, and ideas to begin incorporating music into their teaching. It will focus on what is arguably the most difficult musical genre to teach with:…

Developing effective models for teacher preparation is an ongoing challenge for teacher educators. Such models require meticulous attention to both content and pedagogy and to the way these components manifest a professional vision, with an understanding that a programme's content and pedagogy not only shape an image of the ideal teacher but are…

The paper offers three examples of passionate immersion with strange objects and working with peculiar multispecies assemblages, such as the assemblage of a dove called Romeo and the technology to humidify a greenhouse called 'Princess', or the experiment of orienteering in forests for years, accounting for slips, scratches and tumbles as being…

The purpose of this article is to identify proper uses for mixed methods in leadership research and assessment. This article will highlight research and assessment questions that are best served by mixed methods and will offer practitioner-friendly guides and examples for integrating quantitative and qualitative data to help eat the whole whale…
