Research has revealed that critical thinking (CT) can predict undergraduate academic performance well. It is essential for nurturing students' unique voice and creativity, especially in the era of Large Language Models (LLMs). LLMs can generate linguistically complex texts, potentially overshadowing students' authorial voices--particularly those…

Recent research has indicated that the manner in which single-case data are typically displayed for visual analysis may influence rater decisions regarding the effect of an intervention. Subsequently, researchers have encouraged adherence to a standard assembly for linear graphs in order to control these effects. Others, however, have encouraged…

This study undertook a comparative analysis of the assessment of transversal competences using two methods, one based on self-assessment and the other on external evaluation, to verify whether there was a (mis)match between the two. Self-assessment was based on the scores obtained through a self-report survey, and external evaluation was based on…

Humanitarian engineering (HE) graduate programs aim to improve environmental and social equity by training engineers to identify and rectify disparities in infrastructure services. While these programs help increase the engineering field's focus on equity, students involved in HE activities have reported questioning their ability to have a social…

Online education is considered a type of education in which students and faculty members use their own devices to access the internet instead of presenting physically in the institution. The present study aimed to explore positive exploration of online teaching-learning at the postgraduate level at the University of Dhaka. Under a qualitative…

Many different factors influence students' sense of belonging in an online learning. One area of the learning experience in which a sense of "belonging" is critical is in online asynchronous discussions, and the degree to which students feel that their contributions to those discussions are valued. Unfortunately, the structure of…

Human anatomy is a foundational course in graduate health professional programs. Given the increased enrollment in anatomy courses, along with the development of new technologies, institutions are increasingly compelled to provide alternative course formats, including online learning. Similarly, higher education is increasingly transitioning from…

Academic reading, a cornerstone of postgraduate education, often presents challenges, particularly for non-native English speakers. These include complex texts, extensive vocabulary, and integrating diverse sources. This study investigates the potential of ChatGPT as an academic reading tool for postgraduate students, emphasizing its usability,…

This study leverages the digital sticky note feature in Zoom's whiteboard to provide students with opportunities to gain a better understanding of supply chain management through engagement and hands-on experience in a synchronous online class. The activity was implemented within an online graduate course in Operations and Supply Chain Management…

In recent years, automated warehouses have become increasingly important to meet the rising demand of supply chain operations. Despite their growing relevance to industry, these systems remain largely underrepresented in academic settings, which contributes to a significant gap in student knowledge and preparedness. Traditional educational…

Rapidly evolving technological markets in the so-called knowledge economy have resulted in increased pressure on postgraduate (PG) engineering cohorts to produce research outputs that meet the disparate requirements of both Higher Education (HE) and the knowledge economy. The latter expects a product that is not always explicitly linked to the…

Intraprofessional education between occupational therapy (OT) and occupational therapy assistant (OTA) students can be a valuable component of the entry-level curriculum. Comparisons of OT vs. OTA students' perceptions are sparse, yet this information may yield important insights about intraprofessional learning needs. This mixed methods study…

This study introduces and validates the artificial intelligence anxiety scale (AIAS), a novel instrument designed to measure researchers' anxieties when employing artificial intelligence (AI) tools in academic writing. As AI technologies rapidly infiltrate scholarly work, however, the primary concern grows about their ethical implications, impact…

The Master's degree is a necessary step for any library and information science professional who wants to advance in the field. This requires potential students to go through the graduate school application process, which often includes additional requirements set by the School of Information (or equivalent college). Application requirements offer…

Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) play a significant role in higher education and in the education of undergraduate students. Previous research suggests that undergraduate students perceive GTAs differently than faculty instructors, but little has been done to explore the nature of those perceptions. This exploratory study uses…
