Studies reporting flexible assessment strategies and their impact across different modes of study remain limited with little emphasis placed on the role these arrangements play in devising authentic assessment processes. This paper synthesises recent research work depicting flexible design principles and practice strategies for how educators might…

Purpose: This study aims to develops an interdisciplinary business and computer science pedagogy for teaching and learning computer programming in business schools at higher education institutions and explores its associated benefits, challenges and improvement. Design/methodology/approach: Based on a body of theories, an interdisciplinary…

This paper details an integrated inquiry-based mathematics and science method course for preservice teachers designed around STEM problem-based learning. It documents how problem-based learning (PBL) activities supported PSTs' envisioning of equitable approaches for diverse children. The overarching research question was: "How did preservice…

Integrated science-and-literacy programs have proven to positively affect both language proficiency and science knowledge. Because making connections is important in both text comprehension and understanding the disciplinary core ideas taught in science, it seems worthwhile to explore the potential of integrating text structure instruction in…

Pedagogical competence development programs in universities are gaining in importance across national contexts. In response to the demand for better teaching in higher education, Scandinavian universities have made the programs a standard part of the application for full employment and qualification for a professorship. Though pedagogical…

Theorizing and exploring teacher learning contexts is critical to understanding reform-based instructional changes. Research on professional learning, organizational contexts, and science reform has grown over the years, particularly since the unveiling of the Framework for K-12 Science Education in the United States. In this article, the authors…

This brief article explores the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools into blended learning environments for designing and teaching pronunciation tasks. Adapting Calamlam's (2016) conceptual framework, a flowchart is proposed to guide the use of three GenAI tool types to enhance pronunciation instruction: Listen-Mimic…

Improving teaching effectiveness is a key goal in higher education. The ARCS motivational model (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) has become widely adopted in educational environments. This systematic review examines 24 studies from 2015 to 2024, sourced from ProQuest, Web of Science, and Scopus, selected from an initial pool of 948…

Mathematical abstraction constitutes the foundational cornerstone for the establishment and evolution of mathematical disciplines, serving as the pathway through which mathematical concepts emerge. As one of the information technologies widely applied in mathematics education, the Dynamic Mathematics Systems (DMS) have been found to have a…

In digitalized learning processes, learning analytics (LA) can help teachers make pedagogically sound decisions and support pupils' self-regulated learning (SRL). However, research on the role of the pedagogical dimensions of learning design (LD) in influencing the possibilities of LA remains scarce. Primary school presents a unique LA context…

Many quality assurance frameworks are in need of modification and evaluation before they can support the alignment of inclusive course design and pedagogies in institutions of higher education (IHEs). This study aimed to add inclusive practices in an open-source rubric, OpenSUNY Course Quality Review (OSCQR) rubric. Guided by the Universal Design…

As digital learning evolves, strong change management is critical, yet few institutions integrate digital learning into strategic plans, and many leaders lack formal training in this area. This guide is designed to help digital learning leaders build institutional support for digital learning by exploring case studies, highlighting change…

The idea of co-creating curricula with students has gained momentum in recent years to challenge conventional power relationships within universities through amplification of student voice and advocacy for meaningful student participation in teaching, research, and service. This is a necessary response to facilitate higher education transformation…

The actions of a teacher are one of the strongest factors influencing students' academic achievement and future life success. However, some of the most common frameworks that are used to evaluate teachers and guide their development or improvement are not based on or informed by research about effective teaching methods. Other frameworks are…

Given that spiritual formation of students is a key pursuit of theological training and in light of the evolving landscape of Christian spiritual formation, designing an effective educational model for the goal of students' formation is challenging. This article explores the educational means and factors of self-awareness that enhance spiritual…
