Law enforcement officers are the primary individuals called and who respond to situations of heightened concern. They make split-second observations and decisions based on how best to react to given safety situations and those involved. Characteristics of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), if not properly understood and reacted to, may quickly…

Previous work has highlighted the difficulties students have when explaining wave behavior. We present an investigation of chemistry students' understanding of the double-slit experiment, where students were asked to explain a series of PhET simulations illustrating a single continuous light source, single-slit diffraction, and double-slit…

Given the prevalence of digital tools and platforms as the primary pedagogical means through which to organize and deliver content in schools, this study examined how history teachers instructed students in digital literacies to develop their disciplinary knowledge through project-based learning. Although several studies addressing new literacies…

Web-based peer assessment is a valuable way to cultivate active life-long learning in the modern era. This study proposed a peer-learning teaching approach that incorporates a web-based system, Tronclass, and the mechanisms of peer assessment and feedback in a financial market course to improve students' learning performances and motivation.…

Purpose: This paper aims to evaluate the awareness level of university students on energy conservation by focusing on their knowledge, attitude and practice. Energy awareness is a feasible energy conservation measure, but an inappropriate approach can cause the wastage of resources. The current number of reported awareness studies especially among…

Reaction mechanisms are central to organic chemistry and organic chemistry education. Assessing understanding of reaction mechanisms can be evaluated holistically, wherein the entire mechanism is considered; however, we assert that such an evaluation does not account for how learners variably understand mechanistic components (e.g., nucleophile,…

Mainly, this paper is written to address an engineering educator pool that has limited firsthand knowledge of the industry work scope. Specifically, members that gain necessary academic credential and gain a faculty job without having professional industry work exposures. Transition of knowledge gained in the undergraduate engineering experimental…

Learning-focussed educational models require the development of pedagogical, methodological, assessment and technological competences among the faculty community.

The main aim of this study is to assess university students' perceptions of climate change (CC) and sustainable development (SD). It also reviews existing curricula of various degree programs and obtains students' opinion on how to integrate these concepts into the curricula and improve teaching methods and students' learning. In total, 400…

Peer feedback is known to have positive effects on knowledge improvement in a collaborative learning environment. Attributed to technology affordances, class-wide peer feedback could be garnered at a wider range in the networked learning environment. However, more empirical studies are needed to explore further the effects of type and depth of…

For children to become strong readers, they need to learn a huge number of words--at least 100,000 by the time they get to eighth grade. It is impossible to teach that much vocabulary directly; children gain most of their vocabulary indirectly, as their knowledge of the world expands. This article discusses how much of this learning happens…

This article aims to examine teacher readiness for inclusive education with the contextual influence of gender, age, academic qualification, teachers' teaching experience, involvement in teaching students with special educational needs, and teacher training. Using a quantitative research design, a survey questionnaire was administered to 628…

Purpose: In the context of the question of how entrepreneurship education can contribute to entrepreneurial competency development, this paper aims to outline the deliberate practice (DP) method and showcase how it can be applied in entrepreneurship education.
