As advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) become increasingly integrated into Higher Education (HE) learning spaces, these environments adapt to changing technologies and goals of educators and learners. As such, designing learning spaces requires HE researchers to imagine future learning spaces. In this article, we present a…

While consensus exists on the importance of inclusive education, there is limited evidence on the use and quality of inclusive teaching practices and the extent to which these are related to effective teaching more generally. This article uses the Universal Design for Learning Framework and Teach observation tool to examine use of inclusive…

In comparison with classroom settings that are more accessible to the scrutiny of researchers and institutional monitoring, the one-to-one setting of instrumental and vocal studio teaching has been described as a 'secret garden'. The physical isolation of the music studio has deep roots within the traditions of apprenticeship and embodies aspects…

Post-secondary educational spaces are often thought of as a backdrop to where education takes place. Architectural designs are seen as neutral sites; however, higher education institutions are sites of ideological production and therefore, fundamental exercises of power (Ford, 2017). The study of campus landscapes is relevant to uncovering and…

The County School Facility Sales Tax (CSFT) has been a supplemental funding source for some Illinois school districts since its inception in 2007. CSFT offers districts an alternative source of revenue targeted specifically for school facilities and for paying off existing debt without relying on local property taxes. This study explores and…

The many negative effects that deficient building conditions have on educational quality have long been ignored. Until school systems can ensure all students have access to school buildings that are healthy, safe, comfortable, and dry, we cannot hope to adequately protect the well-being of students and staff, recruit and retain teachers, or…

The construction of new schools has undergone much debate as children and teachers spend a significant proportion of their lives in physical learning environments in schools. The school soundscape is central but often underestimated. In this study, we investigated teachers' experiences of soundscapes in two modern Finnish comprehensive schools by…

This article is aimed at discussing best practices for assurance of quality in higher education in Nigeria. Across the world, higher education institutions strive to attain high quality and standards in all their activities especially teaching, research, community development and innovation. Higher education institutions of high quality and…

This study examined internal school quality assurance practices and undergraduate students' attitude towards academic activities in public universities in Cross River State, Nigeria. The study was guided by three null hypotheses and the design adopted was ex-post facto research design. The population of the study was made up of all the regular…

There is a national consultation on how ICTs influences Ghana's school administration and curriculum instruction. For this vision to be actualized, the researcher envisaged that a tracer study on the challenges affecting the use of ICTs in pre-tertiary school administration would provide first-hand information to policymakers. The study adopted a…

Massachusetts has received $2.9 billion in Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funding, with the vast majority going to districts. Across the state, almost all of the first round of funding (ESSER I) and the majority of the second round (ESSER II) has been spent. Districts now have until September 2024 to spend the remainder…

Engineering education has a long and well-researched history; however, recent declines in the number of undergraduate students entering and matriculating through to graduation has commanded the engineering education community's attention. To help counter the declining number of students entering and persisting in engineering, an engineering…

Play is part of childhood. Play is also part of development. Theoretical frameworks serve to provide scientific research-based support for grounded educational design and practice of play spaces is both educationally sound and developmentally appropriate. This project piloted a matrix tool in a case study to assess play spaces at an early…

This study examined classroom environment and mathematics achievement of senior secondary school (SS2) students' in the Calabar Cross River State, Nigeria.
