Active learning practices, like groupwork, are becoming more widely used in post-secondary mathematics classrooms. These practices are often talk-intensive and require interpersonal interactions. As such, it remains an open question the extent to which practices like groupwork equitably support students with different social identities, including…

LGB individuals--those who identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual--are underrepresented in many careers. Our study explores differences in the CTE participation of LGB students compared to heterosexual peers during high school. Using nationally representative longitudinal data, we examine differences in high school CTE coursetaking by LGB…

An advanced graduate-level financial accounting theory course should provide integral content for all accounting programs. However, we are aware that such courses are not always required at either the undergraduate or graduate level. We taught the accounting theory class at three institutions for many years, and as a result, we provide our views…

Managerial accounting has traditionally played an important role in analyzing data, estimating performance, and offering suggestions. Modern management accountants face evolving expectations, such as contributing strategically to long-term goals and communicating information using visualizations. We specifically focus on how managerial accounting…

While research on digital multimodal composing (DMC) has been skewed towards the instructional design and affordances of DMC for L2 learners, there is a wider need to develop conceptual models of L2 DMC competence, with which L2 learners can successfully design DMC works and respond to the multimodal reading and writing demands of the digital era.…

Background: The mental health of youth represents a critical public health issue and has worsened over the course of the pandemic, partially attributed to social isolation and school closures. Methods: This analysis leveraged data on school learning modality (COVID-19 School Data Hub), emergency department (ED) visits (North Carolina SHEPS data),…

Background: Although substantial empirical evidence supports interteaching, few studies have investigated the clarifying lecture component, and none have evaluated it in an online course format. Objective: This study evaluated the necessity of a clarifying lecture in an asynchronous online course and compared a clarifying lecture (based on student…

Numerous methods of distance learning were introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic that critically impacted the medical education landscape. This study assessed the anatomy learning performance of first-year medical students in both theoretical and practical examinations before, during, and after COVID-19 lockdowns and surveyed their perceptions…

A graduate-level master's gross anatomy course was recently rewritten to enhance delivery of its content in a manner that supports student learning. End-of-course evaluations from all 88 students showed highly favorable ratings for the curricular change, but a more detailed analysis is critical to determine whether a safe learning environment had…

While the praxis of public administration in India is documented in the literature, its pedagogy, and the formal dissemination of its knowledge, is relatively unexamined. This study determines the status of public administration pedagogy in India through a review of the academic programs in public administration at accredited state, central, and…

This qualitative study explores networked collaborative learning in the context of an online undergraduate education course, analyzing the talk, thinking, and media that students jointly produced during a discussion hosted via video conference. Our work speaks to recent interest in online instruction, particularly in post-secondary institutions,…

Institutions are redesigning gateway courses--lower-division courses known to create student success bottlenecks--to influence persistence and completion goals. These initiatives, student success course redesigns (SSCR), are specialized versions of course design institutes (CDIs). This investigation into SSCRs uses content analysis to examine the…

As colleges and universities push to offer more online offerings, particularly during this current pandemic, concerns about upholding standards of excellence surface. As a result, programs like Quality Matters (QM) have flourished in an attempt to make courses not only easily accessible, but also tied to learning outcomes. This paper takes a look…

Nolan and Temple Lang's "Computing in the Statistics Curricula" (2010) advocated for a shift in statistical education to broadly include computing. In the time since, individuals with training in both computing and statistics have become increasingly employable in the burgeoning data science field. In response, universities have…

The COVID-19 pandemic has interrupted education institutions in over 150 nations, affecting billions of students. Many governments have forced a transition in higher education from in-person to remote learning. After this abrupt, worldwide transition away from the classroom, some question whether online education will continue to grow in…
