This research focuses on the application of multimedia technology and the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm in university vocal music teaching. This model provides students with multi-dimensional learning experiences and targeted feedback. Experimental results show that students in the experimental group using this new model have significantly…

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often face significant challenges in social reciprocity, which involves the mutual exchange of social cues and interactions. This study investigates the potential of using a child-height assistive robot named Rudolf to enhance the social reciprocity skills of children with ASD. The research focused…

In the spring of 2020, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) was faced with the challenge of how to best serve and support its higher education members amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, for the Excellence in Civil Engineering Education (ExCEEd) Teaching Workshop (ETW), the indefinite prohibition of in-person gatherings triggered…

The PeeR Investigators Mentoring Experiences in Research (PRIMER) program was developed to enhance mentorship and support in Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) at our institution. This program leverages PRIMER's prior research experience in computational biology courses to mentor students in our bioinformatics-focused CUREs.…

Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are an effective strategy to teach students about the process of scientific research. Students participating in a CURE also benefit in numerous other ways, such as gaining increased enthusiasm for science and increased retention in a STEM field. Because scientific research is increasingly…

This project was conceived and executed as a case study in early childhood, given its methodological characteristics and approach. It focused on exploring a pedagogical and research initiative in a real and defined context: a public school in the town of Usme, Bogotá, Colombia. Its main objective was the creation of a school garden to strengthen…

Inequities continue to weaken Michigan's capacity to respond quickly and effectively to crises, both natural and human-made. Minority and low-income populations, already disadvantaged, suffer the burden of the inequitable social, environmental, and economic injustices that have culminated in previously unacknowledged levels. Since 2011, the…

This article explores developmental readiness, efficacy, and design sequencing considerations in college service experiences. Drawing on developmental theory and best practices, this article offers a roadmap to more effectively align student development with the design of community service experiences. It includes implications for practice and…

As pedagogical training becomes more advanced and intensive, new methods of instruction that incorporate information technology are becoming increasingly important. The purpose of this article is to investigate how using the MuseScore scorewriter to teach solfeggio affects music students' ability to think creatively. The program designed for a…

This systematic literature review explores the impact of Virtual Reality (VR) on STEM education, focusing on the enhancement of student learning outcomes. Our findings reveal that VR's immersive and interactive features significantly improve student understanding, retention, and engagement. Key features of effective VR applications include…

This study tests the effectiveness of Well Managed Schools (WMS), an established classroom management program, for improving student-teacher relationship quality, teacher social skills instruction, and teacher self-efficacy. Participants were 415 Grade 1-5 teachers in 49 schools representing 24 school districts across six states in the United…

To further my research investigating the affective skills of university students, I engaged in a longitudinal mixed-methods study that explored the emotional intelligence (EI) of law students. For this study, I collected quantitative data to measure changes in EI of law students from their first to final year in the degree program. Then I gathered…

This research presents a meta-analysis of studies examining the relationship between recreational physical activity and children's performance in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) subjects, with a specific focus on math and science. While previous research has established a positive correlation between physical activity and…

Despite advances in the inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities in society, there are still negative attitudes toward them. For this reason, it is considered necessary to carry out interventions aimed at changing attitudes toward this group and the characteristics of such interventions should be analysed. To this end, a review of the…

Before increasing global disruptions and uncertainties, it is necessary to prepare students with capabilities to influence change and to nurture their agency. This case study examines a pilot student sustainability leadership initiative run at an English university. It comprises a model which combines student as partners and "living lab"…
