Psychoanalysis and child psychotherapy have traditionally sought to describe their relationship to science in a variety of ways.

Computer-simulated experiments offer many benefits to engineering curricula in the areas of safety, cost, and flexibility. We report our experience in developing and deploying a computer-simulated unit operations laboratory, driven by the guiding principle of maximum fidelity to the physical lab.

Lesser, Lawrence M.; Blake, Sally – Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, 2007
Though traditionally viewed as value-free, mathematics is actually one of the most powerful, yet underutilized, venues for working towards the goals of critical pedagogy--social, political and economic justice for all. This emerging awareness is due to how critical mathematics educators such as Frankenstein, Skovsmose and Gutstein have applied the…

Wesche, Sonia; Huynh, Niem Tu; Nelson, Erin; Ramachandran, Leela – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2010
While qualitative fieldwork in cross-cultural settings is central to human geography, there has been limited focus in the literature on the expectations and skills required to succeed as a field researcher in this area. Some practical advice is available for researchers who are new to cross-cultural fieldwork (e.g. graduate students, junior…
