Background/purpose: Entrepreneurial universities are vital for economic development and innovation, yet securing sustainable funding beyond traditional sources is a critical challenge. This study addresses the need to identify and understand diverse financing mechanisms employed by these universities to foster their entrepreneurial activities. The…

The current study aimed to (i) creates a bibliometric map of studies conducted on giftedness and mathematics and covered in the Scopus database and (ii) provide a holistic examination of these studies. Analyses included 1088 studies published between 1917 and 2022. We used the VOS viewer for social network visualisations. Using the bibliometric…

Presentation and publication of Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) studies are expected outcomes for teaching faculty in many higher education institutions. However, most faculty members don't have prior training in this area and struggle to excel in this task. At North Carolina State University (NC State), a faculty development program…

This paper argues that the dominant modes of academic address, the conference paper, the journal article, and the monograph, reinforce problematic and exclusionary assumptions concerning what counts as legitimate research, whilst also restricting academic enquiry and impoverishing intellectual life. It makes its case by exploring in some detail…

Although…

A growing scholarly literature in a subfield of applied linguistics focuses on language testing and language requirements for migrants. We sought to understand what theoretical paradigms and methodological approaches have framed this research and propose future research directions. To this end, we conducted a systematic review of articles on…

Many forms of bias have been identified in higher education research, and in educational and social research in general. This article identifies a further form of bias, positivity bias, and places it in this broader context. Positivity bias is the tendency, in some forms of published higher education research, to only or chiefly report examples of…

In 2021 alone, 5837 SCOPUS indexed documents were published with a title that contained the words: "autism", "autistic", or "ASD". The purpose of this study was to examine the most common topics of autism…

This article considers the complex ecosystems of Basic Writing programs through the lens of resilience science, particularly William E. Rees' work in the field. The author uses critical discourse analysis to analyze articles published in The Journal of Basic Writing from 1995 to the present and identifies institutional narratives that illustrate…

This study examined the impact of journals that focus on supporting individuals with learning disabilities (LDs). We analyzed the visibility of 360 articles that appeared in seven scholarly outlets (ILD, IJRLD, JLD, LDCJ, LDMJ, LDQ, and LDRP) over a one-year period (2022). Using a two-year Google-based Journal Impact Factor (two-year GJIF), the…
