Quiet eye training, a technique focused on optimizing gaze behavior during critical moments, has shown potential for enhancing motor skill acquisition. This study investigates the effects of quiet eye training in both virtual and real-world environments on dart-throwing learning. The participants consisted of 45 female students who were randomly…

In this article, we discuss the need for the field of leadership education (LE) to employ detailed outcomes for assessing its learning interventions, along with rigorous metrics in which to measure such outcomes. We define assessment, outcomes, and metrics, and provide numerous examples of how each can be built and improved upon across a variety…

Background/purpose: Computational Thinking is a content that has been integrated into primary education curricula in several countries. Its proper integration into education is not limited to its inclusion in the educational curricula, and teachers and pre-service teachers must develop the necessary knowledge to integrate it into their practices…

Contemporary literature in engineering education calls for focused efforts towards revitalizing the curriculum, pedagogic practice, and assessments. Creating multidisciplinary, experiential learning opportunities through a biomimicry module offers authentic and situated experiences for designing sustainable solutions inspired by and in harmony…

Behavioral skills training (BST) delivered synchronously via telecommunication (telehealth) has been shown to be effective for training mediators supporting children with autism. A limitation in the literature is that many published training protocols are evaluated under analogue or highly controlled conditions; therefore, further evaluation is…

Trust serves an important purpose in organizations composed of numerous, specialized, interdependent roles. Supporting confidence that individuals will dutifully fulfill the responsibilities of those roles without causing harm to the organization, trust enables coordinated task execution across multiple roles and facilitates information exchange…

Background: Developing treatment goals and hierarchies is fundamental to effective intervention. Despite this, interventions are often vaguely or ambiguously described, negatively impacting outcome measurement, client engagement, and team communication. THIMS (Target, Hierarchy, Ingredients, Measures, Success Criterion) is a novel intervention…

Generative drawing, or drawing-to-learn, has been studied as an effective learning strategy primarily used in science learning. However, drawing can be cognitively demanding, requiring instructional support to ensure good learning outcomes. The present meta-analysis encompassed 14 studies with 16 statistically independent comparisons between…

In a rapidly evolving technology and skill-based economy, the development and engagement in practical skills and motivation among electronic technology education students is key to their career readiness and employability. Thus, this study investigated the relationship between initial training experiences and electronic technology education…

The role of an orientation & mobility (O&M) specialist is essential to provide professional training and recommendations to promote safe, independent street crossings for people who are blind or have low vision. This article provides novel approaches to teaching crossing strategies using tactile maps to individuals with visual impairments…

Teaching Assistants (TAs) (may also be known as Learning Support Assistants or Classroom Assistants) are important members of staff within a school environment. There is guidance on the deployment of TAs; however, little is known about how these recommendations are operationalised in a school setting. The aim of this research was to explore TA…

Presentation and publication of Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) studies are expected outcomes for teaching faculty in many higher education institutions. However, most faculty members don't have prior training in this area and struggle to excel in this task. At North Carolina State University (NC State), a faculty development program…

Despite the utilization of adventure therapy techniques in behavioral health disorder prevention programming, little is known about how providers become trained in adventure-based prevention practice. Additionally, limited literature examines how adventure therapy providers are trained. This exploratory qualitative study provides a starting point…

Purpose: Measurable results of efforts to teach empathy to engineering students are sparse and somewhat mixed. This study's objectives are (O1) to understand how empathy training affects students' professional development relative to other educational experiences, (O2) to track empathy changes due to training over multiple years, and (O3) to…

Purpose: Many students with communication disorders have unique social-emotional needs, yet school speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are not typically trained in how to address those needs. We developed a new training (STIRS [SLP Training to Increase Resilience in Students]) to equip elementary school SLPs to embed social-emotional learning…
