Introduction: Undergraduate research in science is recognized for fostering positive professional and personal development. Several studies have revealed these gains to be accomplished when research work is embedded in a structured setting, with additional programming. This research examines the implementation of remote programming in the Amgen…

There are considerable data documenting the importance of early experiences for healthy human development. Though widely accepted amongst mental health clinicians, developmental researchers and early childhood policymakers, this information is not well known by much of the public. We describe a specialized program designed for established and…

STEM-to-public science communication is recognized as an important skill, but a pedagogical framework for teaching these skills is lacking. Collaborating with safety and science communication experts, an intervention was developed in a health and safety course for chemical engineering students. Students attended three science communication…

This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows. (1) Examine whether secondary and tertiary interventions delivered outside of the criminal justice system are effective at countering the cognitive and behavioural radicalisation of children and adolescents by synthesising evidence relating to relevant primary…

University enabling programs provide historically underrepresented students with aspirational gateways and the academic skills and knowledges essential for success at university. Measurement of the efficacy of such programs has been typically neoliberal and quantitative in nature. This article argues for a nuanced measurement of success, exploring…

Background: As more universities seek to offer international experiences for engineering students, it is important to design such programs to effectively support student learning abroad. Previous research on study abroad has focused on a limited number of outcomes and therefore failed to consider the diversity of experiences students may have in…

Reading Recovery (RR) was introduced throughout New Zealand during the 1980s, for children struggling the most with learning to read after 1 year of formal schooling. In May 2024, the Minister of Education decided the programme would no longer be funded beyond 2024. This decision was based on evidence that the programme was not as effective as…

The aim of this article is to provide a model for assessing service-learning projects mediated by a stakeholder approach to managing such educational pursuits. The method used for substantiating this proposal consists of matching the process of stakeholder analysis, customised for experiential learning, with the project scope and monitoring…

Service coordinators (SCs) in Part C early intervention (EI) programs fulfill critical supportive roles assisting families in accessing and successfully navigating services needed for their infants/toddlers identified with delays or disabilities. However, evidence of effective training for SCs is limited. One state scaled up training in the…

In this article, the authors present and engage with the conceptual and theoretical underpinning of leadership education and leadership development in Africa. Specifically, leadership education programs which are focusing on nurturing a new generation of leaders, adept at navigating the complexities of a globalized world, while remaining deeply…

Youth with disabilities are more likely to have enjoyable experiences in Sport Education (SE) seasons that include students serving as equity officers and an emphasis on adaptive sports. This article presents a wheelchair-basketball SE season that physical educators can implement in integrated classes that include students who use wheelchairs to…

Family child-care programs (FCCs) are a unique and vital part of the Massachusetts child-care and education system. FCC owners tend to serve some of the highest-need children and families in the Commonwealth, yet the owners and assistants who run these programs often take home some of the lowest wages among educators. While much research has been…

The objectives of this research were: 1) to explore existing situations, desirable situations, and the need to develop cooperative learning management competencies of university lecturers; and 2) to develop a program to strengthen cooperative learning management competencies of university lecturers. A multi-phase mixed methods research approach…

This paper details the potential of scrapbooking as an arts-based approach to data generation in health, fitness, and physical education contexts. I organize the paper to resemble a scrapbook, with its 'pages' unfolding in five parts. I start with an introduction and background on scrapbooking before turning to illustrate two examples of…

Undergraduate students majoring in child and family development (CHFD) at a southeastern public doctoral/research university were required to complete 14 hours of service learning in a local after school program as part of the course requirements in a class titled "Youth Development." The course is a required course for majors and…
