Purpose: Supervision plays a critical role in the development of rehabilitation counselors. Research and accreditation standards have long called for the appropriate training of rehabilitation counseling supervisors but have offered little in the way of topical suggestions for such trainings. Methods: The present study used the Delphi method. A…

This paper describes an experiential learning project for students enrolled in a Marketing Channels course. Students conducted small scale research studies involving manufacturers and their channel members by investigating behavior related to electronic marketing channels and pricing practices. Students developed hypotheses based on their channel…

Information and knowledge of science are very necessary and vital inputs for growth and survival in modern times. Science is a body of knowledge that can be rationally interpreted and applied consistently in human endeavors. Science as a form of information is a way to examine a process and a way of thinking in the quest for an understanding of…

A set of inexpensive and pedagogically rich experiments focusing on S[subscript N]1, E1, and E2 reactions have been updated to include modern computational and spectroscopic analyses. The S[subscript N]1 experiment involves treatment of "tert"-amyl alcohol with hydrochloric acid to generate the corresponding alkyl chloride, which is used…

Although geometric shape content should be mastered by early high school, many pre-service teachers (PSTs), particularly those in elementary and special education, have limited yet deeply engrained shape concepts. This poses challenges for how to teach shape concepts in content courses for PSTs. Thus, this study tested an approach atypical for a…

Purpose: This study analyzes the content of doctoral theses completed in chemistry education within the last two decades (1999-2019) after the restructuring of education faculties in Turkey. This study examines the doctoral dissertations completed in chemistry education in 1999-2019 concerning their year of publication, university, objective,…

An economy that grows is good. Growth in income is certainly good. In general, growth is seen as a good thing. A global pandemic challenges this notion. Let's be careful of what we wish for- especially if growth is "exponential." This article describes exponential growth and doubling time, and shows how these concepts can be related to…

Course specific learning outcomes are an important tool to define the scope of a course and can be very helpful when designing experiments and assessments. With slight modification, these learning outcomes can serve as a guide when transitioning to the distance learning format especially in courses with a traditional lab. Here we present such an…

The visual method in this paper solves linear inequalities in one variable by considering them initially as two competing linear expressions, each of which is then expressed as a linear equation. When the solution of these two linear equations exist, it is viewed as a highlighted area or a line. These linear equations convey the intended visual…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to advance the proposition that organizations involved with training of employees should make. First, CBI is linked to skill development areas recognized as high value in the contemporary and future workplace such as analysis, problem-solving and soft skills such as active listening, collaboration and…

This study chronicles a semester long inquiry focused on the impacts of pedagogical strategies informed by the tenets of third space theory on my own practices and understanding of students' learning outcomes in an action research course. As I applied new instructional strategies to promote discourse and critical inquiry, I reflexively explored…

The purpose of this study is to compare the instructional practices in science education in Malaysian and German secondary schools. Specifically, the objectives of this research are to seek answers for the following questions: (i) What are the current science teachers' instructional practices in German secondary school? (ii) What are the current…

In this paper we discuss different ways teachers can integrate science and mathematics into their curriculum. In particular, we focus on science and mathematics integration via the disciplinary practices.

A great deal has been written about the huge benefits to children of learning through the context of stories. Some scientific concepts can be difficult for children to understand if they cannot see or experience them. Stories help bring the concepts to life, making them more meaningful, increasing engagement and often providing a more fun…

Dynamic representational technologies (DRTs), influenced by the seminal work of James Kaput and colleagues, have been in use in mathematics classrooms for decades. In this paper, we analyze 24 classrooms in the United States where teachers support students' conceptual learning with technologies that support explorations of dynamic connections both…
