This study aims to examine the relationship among motivation for joining an educational leadership training programme (MOT), perceived skills (PS), and perceived changes in transformational leadership (PCTFL) in educational leadership training. The study drew on survey data from 761 participants who were associated with a leadership development…

This essay serves as a personal narrative to share experiences and lessons learned in using a sabbatical to form international collaborations for SoTL research. I share my motivations for seeking an international collaboration, explore my predicted and realized benefits, and address challenges encountered including time constraints and…

Given the recent call to strengthen collaboration between researchers and relevant practitioners, we consider participatory design as a way to advance Cognitive Science. Building on examples from the Learning Sciences and Human-Computer Interaction, we (a) explore "what," "why," "who," "when," and…

This article explores the state of higher education studies today, suggesting that in many ways it can be considered a vibrant field. In the UK, this is evidenced by the relatively large number of REF2021 submissions that had a higher education focus, and the emphasis higher education institutions are increasingly placing on conducting their own…

Cheating is a growing academic and ethical concern in higher education. The technological "arms race" that involves cheating-detection system developers versus technology-savvy students is attracting increased attention to cheating issues; it is also generating iterations of technological innovations as corporations, higher educational…

Starting from the assumption that 'education' in higher education (HE) is a floating signifier and can take on different meanings, we problematise the problem representations regarding the notion of 'education' in HE. We hereby focus on the analysis of problem representations in a set of Communications on the Modernisation Agenda for Higher…

The gamification of learning has increased in popularity in recent years as a tool for enhancing student engagement and attainment. In undergraduate chemistry courses, hybridization is a fundamental concept that students need to master in order to understand introductory organic and inorganic topics. This study focused on the development of a card…

Traditionally, teacher candidate supervision models focus on evaluation rather than collaborative professional reflection. Through a university-district partnership, a new model was designed to disrupt this dynamic and draw on the expertise of practicing teachers to act as coaches. This case study describes the professional learning of novice…

This article focuses on the practical implementation of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in an online computer science course, articulating the collaborative efforts between the instructional designer (the first author) and the faculty member to redesign the course using UDL principles. Specific instances of redesigned learning modules and…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has generated a plethora of new opportunities, potential and challenges for understanding and supporting learning. In this paper, we position human and AI collaboration for socially shared regulation (SSRL) in learning. Particularly, this paper reflects on the intersection of human and AI collaboration in SSRL…

In this chapter, the authors describe the theory of change behind a regional cross-institutional community of practice (CoP) for educational developers seeking to strengthen their institution's SoTL culture and increase faculty SoTL production by providing institution-level support initiatives and programming.

The report analyses major and recent national policies and initiatives aiming to support the enhancement of learning and teaching in 30 countries of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). In a context where learning and teaching has gained increased attention in the EHEA and the Bologna Process, and at the same time higher education…

The paper presents a scoping review of research on transnational education in China published from 2016, the last year that a comprehensive literature review on the subject was published in "Chinese Education & Society." The authors delimited a corpus of 88 articles focusing on collaborative transnational education in China and…

In times of turbulence, uncertainty, novelty, and ambiguity--the so-called TUNA conditions--our experience of the past may prove a poor guide to the future times in which our decisions and their consequences will unfold. Under such conditions, the manufacture of scenarios that are plausible future contexts for a given issue and are designed to…

In the 21st century, teaching strategies, curriculum, and ways of presenting subject matter changed dramatically from kindergarten to higher education. The unprecedented global pandemic brought the concept of hybrid learning to the fore, although it had been in existence for over a decade. Hybrid learning is an approach to teaching and learning…
