Hemmer, Lynn M.; Robertson, Phyllis M.; Sanders, Jana M. – Multicultural Education, 2021
In this article, the authors use Bleicher's (2006) conceptualization of "Bildung" as a very individual and never-ending process of critically assessing knowledge as they seek to recast the boundaries of a study abroad experience to include it as a high-impact, transformative exercise for faculty. Autoethnography and personal narratives…

Wadhwa, Ajay – Physics Education, 2021
We have investigated the motion of water flow through glass tubes of different shapes by calculating the value of the Reynolds number denoted as Re. We know that at a given flow rate the value of Re determines the type of flow being classified as laminar, transitional or tubulent. The dependence of Re in different configurations of glass tubes as…

What education should children and youth be offered about climate mitigation choices? Drawing on critical pedagogy, political ecology, and environmental justice, I here suggest the elaboration of a critical climate education that would provide citizens with knowledge and skills to respond to the climate crisis with responsible action. I argue that…

Hirota, Tomoya; Takahashi, Michio; Adachi, Masaki; Sakamoto, Yui; Nakamura, Kazuhiko – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Despite increasing attention to internet addiction (IA) in both clinical practice and research, our understanding of longitudinal changes of IA status is limited. In the present study, we employed latent transition analysis to investigate patterns of transitions and the stability of IA status among 5483 students (aged 9-12 years) over the two-year…

Pawel, Miriam – Education Next, 2021
The case for ethnic studies is multipronged. It begins with the material itself: history and literature about the struggles and triumphs of people whose voices often have been omitted from traditional texts and classroom readings. A second layer of argument stresses the need for students to understand and discuss how various racial and ethnic…

Pyott, Laura – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Understanding the abstract principles of statistical experimental design can challenge undergraduate students, especially when learned in a lecture setting. This article presents a concrete and easily replicated example of experimental design principles in action through a hands-on learning activity for students enrolled in an experimental design…

Melanie G. C. Smith – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Students leaving institutions of higher education prior to graduation leads to millions of dollars in lost revenue (Sutter & Paulsen, 2016; Undergraduate Retention and Graduation Rates, 2018). Retention theorists Tinto (1975) and Kuh (2008) recommend practices such as academic interaction, social interaction, faculty engagement with students,…

Lauren Kennedy; Andrew Gelman – Grantee Submission, 2021
Psychology research often focuses on interactions, and this has deep implications for inference from non-representative samples. For the goal of estimating average treatment effects, we propose to fit a model allowing treatment to interact with background variables and then average over the distribution of these variables in the population. This…

Ivan Dole – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Developmental English (DE) has been under fire from critics who think it acts as a barrier rather than as a support to the success of students placing into DE. In Texas, such pressures led to a wave of reforms and changes affecting delivery and structure of DE instruction. This dissertation draws on years of internal data at one community college…
