This report proposes a framework for describing student analogical reasoning activities in abstract algebra that moves beyond the traditional literature-based treatment of analogical mapping. The Analogical Reasoning in Mathematics (ARM) framework captures the activities that students engage in when anticipating, creating, and reasoning from…

The responsibilities of civil engineers are not limited to technical practices. The responsibility borne by employers and senior members of the profession to uphold ethical behavior in their personal lives cannot be overstated.

COVID-19 presents assessment professionals with an opportunity to reexamine preexisting inequities for vulnerable student groups that may be more susceptible to the pandemic's economic impacts. We propose that assessment professionals incorporate student interviews more intentionally in their work so they and their stakeholders can develop more…

This document provides advice on moving from in-place, closed-book examinations to open-book, remote assessment. It offers conceptual considerations, practical tips, and discusses the relative merits of two common approaches to open-book exams: those with strict time limits, and those with broad time limits ('take-home' exams).

Children are born learning machines who want to learn and can organize and manage their own learning. Unfortunately, today children have little choice over what they do in school and how and when they do it. Children prepared in this "other-determined" manner will be poorly equipped to navigate an adult world requiring that they act…

Here's proof that STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) isn't just for the big kids! This book's 10 chapters are a mini-course on blending authentic, phenomena-driven, integrated STEM teaching and learning into busy K-2 classrooms. Based in both research and real-world experience, "Integrating STEM Teaching and Learning…

Simulation-based learning environments are used extensively to support learning in complex business systems. Nevertheless, studies show that subjects have great difficulty in understanding and managing dynamic systems, mainly due to cognitive processing difficulties. Previous research has addressed some aspects of model transparency and…

This paper discusses a pedagogical approach that incorporates multiple critical topics in the accounting curriculum using an integrated tax research case. Our approach is designed to develop students research, data management and analysis, critical thinking, decision-making, and professional communication skills. These goals are achieved through…

Recent decades have brought schools and educators toward implementing more inclusive educational programming for students with disabilities.

The flipped classroom is an alternative teaching strategy that helps students apply knowledge learned in the classroom into the clinical setting by engaging students in active learning activities that promote problem-solving abilities, critical thinking skills, and clinical decision-making skills. The problem that was addressed in the study is the…

DE programming in higher education should be designed to increase student success, and well-designed corequisite models have shown great potential as an accelerated option for completion of the first college-level course in math. With the support of a Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board grant, Tarleton State University, a member institution…

There has been much attention given to the use of technology in education; mostly concentrating on physical artifacts of technology to facilitate teaching delivery but little mentioning technology as a cultural resource to organize the learning environment promoting social interaction among students and between teacher and students. This paper…

Purpose: This study aims to highlight the planning, process and results of drawing on engaged pedagogy to humanize Blackness in world language (WL) teacher education. The activities were designed to center lived experiences, augment self-reflection and model instructional differentiation for WL preservice teachers (PSTs).…

With the sudden transition to online instruction in most educational institutions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, it can be assumed that there is paucity in research as regards the teaching of writing online during this crisis moment. To address this niche, 13 Filipino university English language teachers were asked to participate in both online…

Despite numerous previous studies that investigated the adoption of photovoice as the method to capture both students' and teachers' past experiences in qualitative research and educational settings, more needs to be done to explore how student-teachers voice their learning experience (e.g., beliefs, emotions, values or perceptions) and, in…
