There is a large body of scholarship amassed about Black male students placed at risk academically. However, there is limited research of Black male students placed at risk, educational resilience, and positive characteristics. The purpose of this phenomenological study is to examine the lived experiences of Black males placed at risk for school…

This article expands composition research on response by examining how Dweck's theory of mindsets impacts graduate writers' ability to process critical and praise-oriented teacher response, apply critical and praise-oriented teacher response in revision, and ultimately, develop as learners and transfer knowledge from these experiences. We…

This research explored the notion that interview studies can be therapeutic for participants. It examines the common themes that participants report as beneficial from participating in a study about the transition from higher education to post-university life.

Generic examples, which are capable of proving and justifying with strong explanatory power, are particularly important for teachers considering teaching proof in…

Research consistently shows that higher-education participation has positive impacts on individual outcomes. However, few studies explicitly consider differences in these impacts by socio-economic background (SEB), and those which do fail to examine graduate trajectories over the long run, non-labor outcomes and relative returns. We address these…

As future chemical engineers, it is important that students be able to identify and quantify sources of error. A statistical analysis technique that is often overlooked is hierarchical design methodology, which allows for the separation of overall variance into several related components. While hierarchical methodology is relevant to many fields,…

In this study, a synthesis review of the studies published in Elsevier's Scopus database from 1985 to 2017 was conducted to analyze the technology-based learning of newly graduated nurses, including the software and technologies adopted, course content, teaching strategies, research issues, care units, and so on. From the review results, it was…
