Objectives: Health education may improve health in geriatric patients. To evaluate differences between remote and in-person education, the DREAMS ("'D'eveloping a 'R'esearch Participation 'E'nhancement and 'A'dvocacy Training Progra'm' for Diverse 'S'eniors") health seminar series compared in-person and remote learning groups to assess…

The purpose of this paper is to describe what we know and what we still need to learn about literacy intervention for children who experience significant difficulties learning to read. We reviewed 14 meta-analyses and systematic reviews of experimental and quasi-experimental studies published in the last decade that examined the effects of reading…

As educators, we are becoming increasingly aware that delivering effective education will likely change after the coronavirus pandemic. As a result, we have an opportunity to frame teaching differently and bring innovation to the forefront. In doing so, educators explored online tools and creative ways to connect with students and found new ways…

The role of teachers is considered one of the most decisive factors in the success or failure of a child with Special Educational Needs being taught and learning alongside their peers in mainstream settings. The objective of this study is to analyse the perceived efficacy of inclusive practices in achieving quality educational inclusion, and the…

The aim of this research is to describe the impact of implementing an integrated STEAM Project in mobile technology on the Mathematical Reasoning ability of elementary school students and to describe the process of designing an integrated STEAM Project and mobile application. A quantitative descriptive and quasi-experimental research design was…

This paper describes how approaches espousing experiential education principles are adopted by farmer-educators to contextualise farmers' learning and achievement of innovative farming practices.

Fluency is one of the critical factors necessary for proficient reading due to its connection with reading comprehension yet many students with reading difficulties struggle to become efficient readers of connected text. The purpose of the current study was to examine the effects of a digital reading fluency program that incorporates…

Automaticity, defined as accurate and effortless word recognition, impacts a student's ability to read fluently. Although there is evidence that teaching students to read sight words in isolation can increase automaticity, few studies have examined the effects of interventions designed to teach students to read sight phrases. In this study, a…

Contribution: Research shows that nontechnical subjects like the English language have been neglected in computer science/engineering (CS/CE) education research. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a technology-enhanced general English (GE) course that exposed CE students to multimodal input during the prereading phase to develop their…
