A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) is a nutrition expert with numerous and varied required skills which are continuing to evolve as scientific advances in healthcare occur and the food industry strives to meet consumer demands for more healthy, nutritious, and sustainable foods. The Accrediting Council for Education in Nutrition and…

This dissertation investigated the efficacy of an eight-week dysgraphia intervention, created to address dyslexic dysgraphia and motor dysgraphia. Following multiple case study and mixed-methods designs, the researcher quantitatively assessed the copying fluency and compositional fluency for three high school male participants prior to and after…

Research focusing on the integration of computational thinking (CT) into science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education started to emerge. We conducted a semi-systematic literature review on 55 empirical studies on this topic. Our findings include: (a) the majority of the studies adopted domain-general definitions of CT and a…

This paper provides a review of the use of action learning in healthcare organisations, or by healthcare professionals, in the past decade, as evidenced in peer-reviewed journals. Action learning has a long history in healthcare and is perhaps particularly suited to an environment where wicked problems abound, where professional development is…

It has been suggested that children's drawings are associated with their representation ability. However, there is little research on the cognitive basis of drawing in young children. In this study, we investigated the relationship between drawing, language ability, and the presence of imaginary companions (ICs) in children aged between three and…

This paper investigates the extent to which proficiency in English and French as a form of human capital individually determine earnings in Rwanda's labour market and whether it still pays to be bilingual. Using data from the nationally representative Labour Force Survey conducted in 2018, our findings show that after controlling for other human…

We introduce, motivate, and exemplify a proposed theoretical construct guiding the design and facilitation of collaborative geometry activities, conceptually generative perspectival complementarity (CGPC). Participants in CGPC activities learn content by negotiating their respective perceptions of situated features they manipulate to accomplish…

GeoCapabilities is a distinctive approach to teacher professional development which foregrounds the educational potential of geographical knowledge. This paper examines the effect of GeoCapabilities on geography teachers' expertise. First, the paper explores a problem of teacher training which privileges technique for classroom effectiveness over…

This study examines how collaborative learning (CL) activities might help to improve student engagement in practical skills acquisition (SEPSA). Using a time lagged data from 205 undergraduate students of Nigerian public universities, the direct effect of CL on SEPSA and the mediating effects of task value, mastery goal orientation and performance…

We argue that progress in the area of research on mathematics teacher responses to student thinking could be enhanced were the field to attend more explicitly to important facets of those responses, as well as to related units of analysis. We describe the Teacher Response Coding scheme (TRC) to illustrate how such attention might play out, and…

Subtitling in a community setting such as healthcare can satisfy the needs of culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) members of the community. It consists of a variety of stages such as transcription, spotting, translation and review. This qualitative study utilising content analysis aims to measure the quality of transcriptions by students…

In the last few decades, lifelong learning has gained favour as an educational paradigm. Inevitably, embedded in social, cultural, and economic contexts, the conceptualization and implementation of lifelong learning across the globe is far from homogenous. In China, although the notion of lifelong learning can be traced to Confucius, the term was…

When I began my career in adult education as an adjunct ESL teacher, I felt well-equipped with an understanding of second language acquisition and evidence-based teaching methods. At the time, I knew nothing about digital literacy. Once I began to understand its importance and the challenges that it posed in the classroom, I developed the Digital…

This paper addresses learning and development processes in online platform work. Specifically, it proposes a new instrument to survey and analyze self-regulated workplace learning in crowdwork, a type of online platform labor in which a global pool of workers are matched with clients through digital platforms to carry out remunerated tasks.…

While various studies have focused on the significance of computational thinking (CT) for the future career paths of individuals in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), few studies have focused on computational thinking for non-STEM college students. This study explores the relationship between computational thinking and…
