In recent years, there has been a growing trend of academics and teachers collaborating in complementary associations. This is often achieved through engaged scholarship projects, such as those which aim to enhance learners' reading skills. A comprehensive review of the literature underscores the importance of pedagogical support in cultivating…

This meta-analysis synthesized 18 qualified studies, resulting in 29 effect sizes. This study involved a total sample of 1,280 students to evaluate the effectiveness of Engineering Design Process (EDP)-based instructional approaches in STEM education. Eligible studies were systematically selected through inclusion and exclusion criteria following…

Purpose: The study aims to investigate the effect of the dialogue embedded synectics model of teaching on the creative thinking of students. Design/methodology/approach: The research design of the study was a nonequivalent control group design of quasi experimental research. This study collected data from 80 students in the seventh grade from two…

This study explores the relationship between primary school teachers' beliefs about mathematics instruction and their actual teaching practices in Croatian classrooms. Specifically, it examines whether teachers' instructional approaches align with their beliefs, particularly in the context of traditional versus non-traditional pedagogical models.…

This study investigates elementary school teachers' mastery of mathematical content and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in Eastern Indonesia, a region bordering other countries. Specifically, the research explores the relationship between teachers' knowledge of content and students (KCS), knowledge of content and teaching (KCT), and knowledge…

This study aimed to: 1) examine the components of student servant leadership, 2) assess the current status and expectations for developing student servant leadership, and 3) design and validate a management model to enhance student servant leadership. A three-phase Research and Development (R&D) design was adopted. The sample included 306…

Over the past decade, numerous studies have explored students' reading practices in the EFL context. However, we lack evidence on how undergraduate students use task-oriented reading to understand complex academic texts like journal articles. This phenomenological case study investigates the adoption of Task-oriented Reading Instruction (TORI) in…

This article examines how dialogue and a liberatory pedagogical approach can work in concert with one another to expand the opportunity for transformative leadership practice. Personal accounts are shared of how the events of the pandemic and beyond continue to shape our perspectives as leadership educators.

Many design frameworks introduced to novices are not compatible with the behaviours and habits of mind of expert designers. This creates a barrier to effective practice, especially when novice designers tackle ill-defined, wicked problems. The W-model is a pedagogical framework that provides a prescriptive design model for novices, enabling them…

University-level physiology courses are considered challenging. Postsecondary instructors indicate the top three reasons that make physiology courses difficult for student are 1) the need for the learner to reason mechanistically, 2) the belief among students that memorization is equal to learning, and 3) the need to think about the physiological…

In 1952, John Cage wrote "4'33"" which famously asked the performer not to play a single note: "tacet." This provocative work raises a number of questions. In music--and by extension, music education--what does it mean to not do something? What does it mean to make no sound? More fundamentally, what is the nature of…

This note deals with some variants of the integral mean value theorem. Mainly a variant of Sahoo's theorem and a variant of Wayment's theorem were proved. Our approach is rather elementary and does not use advanced techniques from analysis. The simple auxiliary functions were used to prove the results.

In traditional introductory physics courses, concepts of distance, displacement, speed, velocity, scalars, and vectors are generally taught near the beginning of the course. However, students often contend with preexisting notions, such as the idea that speed and velocity are synonyms, which present some of the first conceptual hurdles that they…

This article investigates six Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) preservice teachers' beliefs about social justice enrolled in a Social Foundations course. The course examined schooling in the context of a capitalist society and the role teachers may play in challenging inequity. Each week, the preservice teachers wrote a…

Online case-based learning (CBL) is a method used by King Abdulaziz University to teach medical students in their preclinical years. The use of CBL in basic sciences is important for enabling medical students to correlate basic sciences with future clinical practice. This study implemented online CBL for biochemistry teaching as part of the…
