The purpose of this paper is to capture and analyze students' experiences learning within an Emporium Model (E-Model) of both learning support and introductory college-level mathematics courses. Participants (n =163) were asked their perceptions regarding the E-model approach. Contextual analysis was used to code participants' responses.…

This study aimed at analyzing the influence of the knowledge transfer through the implementation of information technology comprising variables like socialization, externalization, combination, and internalization (SECI) and reflected in the performance of the headmasters at state high schools and state vocational high schools in South Sumatera,…

This article highlights a two-year institution's efforts to deliver personalized guidance and direction to students, providing essential support resources in hope of facilitating meaningful connections that will lead to increased enrollment, persistence, retention, and three-year graduation rates. The project includes efforts by student services…

Student engagement is known to have several positive effects on learning outcomes and can impact a student's university experience. High levels of engagement in content-heavy subjects can be difficult to attain. Due to a major institutional restructure, the anatomy prosection laboratory time per subject was dramatically reduced. In response, the…

In classrooms, some transitions between activities impose (quasi-)synchronicity, meaning there is a need for learners to move between activities at the same time. To make real-time decisions about when to move to the next activity, teachers need to be able to balance the progress of their students as they work at different paces. In this paper, we…

The hierarchical model of van der Linden is the most popular model for responses and response times in tests. It is composed of two separate submodels--one for the responses and one for the response times--that are joined at a higher level. The submodel for the response times is based on the lognormal distribution. The lognormal distribution is a…

The syntactic behaviour of human beings cannot be explained by analogical generalization on the basis of concrete exemplars: analogies in surface form are insufficient to account for human grammatical knowledge, because they fail to hold in situations where they should, and fail to extend in situations where they need to. [For Ben Ambridge's…

The future engineer is labelled an entrepreneurial engineer, having networking, teamwork, opportunity recognition, creativity, risk management, and discipline-specific skills. Therefore, entrepreneurship education is being increasingly introduced in engineering education. The various educational designs used to introduce entrepreneurship education…

In physics and chemistry, the development of problem-solving skills is necessary to become an expert. A simple cognitive model to analyse such development is proposed and tested. An exploratory research was conducted with expert professors and students in initial and advanced years. A think aloud procedure was used to obtain relevant data while…

Professional noticing is a specific set of skills that can be applied whether the teacher is in the process of formatively assessing or generally teaching a lesson. This article provides a framework for integrating professional noticing into teachers' practice as a means to support instructional decisions. An illustrative example is included based…

This article reviews the state of Canada's undergraduate research opportunities (UROs) in the life sciences across various institutions. Survey data gathered in 2019 from 20 departments in 14 universities show that all responding departments offer well-established forms of research that include credit-based directed studies or honors-thesis…

This study investigates the effect of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) and DeLone and McLean information system success model (IS success model) on facets of system use for digital library systems. These facets include lean measures (e.g. frequency, duration, and intensity) and rich measures of system use (e.g. deep…

Literature is abundant with information about the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) upon adult physical health and well-being. Findings beckon attention by providers to identify and respond to trauma during childhood in order to reduce the significant life-long impact. The purpose of this article is to explore a model for…

The main objective of this study was to characterize the acceptance of evolution among biology majors. Semi-structured interviews were carried out to track the opinions of students in relation to two aspects of evolution: (1) attitudes toward evolution in general; and (2) attitudes toward human evolution. The participants characterized their…

This study compares two hypnoteaching models used to teach students mathematics. Due to the increase in the use of these models, further vigorous studies are needed to verify their effects. This is a quasi-experiment research conducted to compare the use of the hypnoteaching model using three classes of students. The first, second, and third…
