Climate change is a 'super-wicked' problem associated with challenges including food security, mass migration and biodiversity loss. Young people are increasingly expecting their university education to prepare them to address these challenges. This requires universities to go beyond scientific accounts of climate change, and to engage students in…

Business scholars agree that well-constructed experiential learning and specifically client-based projects (CBPs) provide an opportunity for students to apply concepts they learn to solve particular problems. As an additional outcome, they provide value for multiple stakeholders including the client, business community, university, and the…

In this article, I suggest four key principles that are foundational for guiding the design and implementation of teacher education programs that prepare teachers who are culturally multidimensional in their pedagogy and practice. These programs help teachers develop mindsets, methods, and practices for enacting decolonial purposes of education…

This study introduces an evidence-centered approach to reverse design for languages for specific purposes (LSP) courses called domain analysis. The article describes the research framework and its potential to provide consistent empirical rigor to the necessarily decentralized field of LSP by reporting on one study using domain analysis in the…

The significant global interest in 21st century skills and their incorporation into school curricula inspired the researchers of the current study to develop a new educational approach of designing curricula that incorporates science, mathematics, technology, arts and engineering (STEAM). In this study, the researchers reviewed several relevant…

Artificial intelligence (AI) education in K-12 schools is currently very popular, but educators and experts have found designing AI-related curricula a challenge. Few studies have been conducted that can inform practitioners about how to design and implement AI-related curricula, and thus sustainable approaches that can inform the planning of…

The aim of this study is to determine how ground-up, small-scale research partnership initiatives can be incorporated and sustained in a school's curriculum. Two problems are explored: First, how can innovations from small-scale partnerships be transformed into large-scale policies? And, second, how do we sustain values cultivated from small-scale…

Nurturing critically engaged and reflective English language teachers is vital if the educational systems they work in are to change dynamically in response to learners' evolving needs. Given that criticality involves constant reflexive questioning of both public discourse and one's own beliefs and assumptions, teacher educators have a…

This ecofeminist-inspired research study, influenced by an ethic of care, engaged the participants in photo-elicitation and interviews. Ecofeminism originated as a theory and movement related to women and the environment (Estévez-Saá & Lorenzo-Modia, 2018), while an ethic of care stems from relational ethics that assumes human connectedness in…

This paper compares undergraduate course-based research experiences to field-based research experiences to understand the relationship between these different forms of experiential learning. I study undergraduate research experiences across an economics department at a large Canadian research university. Statistical analysis indicates there are…

This paper presents findings on physical education (PE) trainees' and teachers' attempts to design and implement authentic curricular experiences, within the constraints of a neoliberalist context. It involved adopting a principle-based approach to promoting active lifestyles designed to align PE trainees' and teachers' health-related philosophies…

This article aims to offer one perspective on ways that Lancaster University supported its staff in the rapid shift to online teaching and learning in the midst of a global pandemic. The approach centred around the upskilling of staff, with mixed engagement across the suite of support tools and resources, which can be compared to similar…

The retention rate in online classes is significantly lower than traditional classes especially in subjects like accounting. More than 40% of the students who were enrolled in online Accounting 101 courses either dropped or failed the course (internal data, 2020). There is a need to identify best practices to increase retention in online classes…

Pre-service teacher training (PTT), programs are required to emphasise the importance of enhancing the theory practice nexus and on constantly developing a sense of teacher identity and teaching competencies (Liu & Low, 2015) for the 21st Century learners. The 21st Century Curriculum Research Project (21CP) sought to explore how pre-service…

This study was carried out to understand gender stereotype in the curriculum framework and textbooks which form the main curricular materials in schools in Bhutan. The curriculum framework for Accountancy, Economics, Mathematics, Science, Geography, History and English were reviewed by the researchers. Except for science curriculum framework which…
