Angola is one of the countries at the bottom of the ranking in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Creating sustainable businesses can accelerate the achievement of the SDGs. The present study analyses the antecedents of sustainability-oriented entrepreneurial intention (SOEI) among Angolan higher education students. It starts from…

This study aims to understand the dynamics and impacts of internationalisation on curriculum and instruction in higher education in the UAE. Employing a quantitative questionnaire for students and qualitative questionnaire for staff, the research was conducted across selected higher educational institutions situated in DIAC. Quantitative data…

Diversity-centered courses may prompt student biases and misconceptions in unique ways. Studies have illustrated that developing an understanding of why value-laden content is difficult for students to learn is paramount to effective teaching. Research has indicated that self-reflection has a positive effect on academic growth. This study explores…

The Quality Matters "Standards for Course Design" (2018) rubric is a course development rubric for online courses in higher education. General Standard 1 provides a list of specific review standards that are integral in the development of courses, including course expectations, course structure, learning guidance, communication…

To enhance the student experience and improve student outcomes -- continuation, attainment, and employment -- higher education providers often implement curriculum changes and evaluate their effectiveness. But as interventions often only work directly with staff, rather than students, impact evaluation is challenging. This paper explores the…

The aim of this paper is to turn attention to the role of affects and emotions in fundamentalism, and examine two interrelated dilemmas that emerge when university instructors come across students who express fundamentalist beliefs and emotions in the classroom: pedagogical and ethical dilemmas. The paper examines these dilemmas through the…

The purpose of this qualitative interpretive study was to understand the ways teachers were influenced in their curricular and instructional decision-making processes in a freshman level mathematics class. Understanding what influences teachers' decision-making processes, and how (the ways) these processes were influenced, may lead to improved…

The perspective of learning science as a way of thinking and inquiry can be realized if teachers can develop higher order thinking skills (HOTS)-oriented science worksheets. Therefore, it is very important to train the creativity of Pre-service Elementary School Teachers (PETs) in developing HOTS-oriented science worksheets in the education of…

The term "engagement" is widely used in teacher education and professional development. There is, however, a lack of consensus about the meaning of this term: it is defined in numerous ways with various theoretical underpinnings. This article employs a postqualitative approach to explore conceptualizations of engagement and their…

One of the challenges of university mathematics courses in secondary teacher preparation is incorporating pedagogical discussions. The focus in a mathematics course is--and should be--on mathematics. But research also suggests that without addressing pedagogical implications these content courses are not meaningful to secondary teachers' future…

Researching the experiences of teaching focused academic (TFA) roles reveals challenges and alienation. Investigating their practices can enrich theorisations of their role. We conducted a focused ethnography capturing data from institutional materials, focus groups, and key informant interviews. We present two vignettes demonstrating the…

In doing so, it utilizes a combination of archival materials, Du Bois's…

Faculty roles have changed in response to shifting societal expectations of higher education, including an increased reliance upon nontenure track and part-time faculty, number of classes and programs offered online, and efforts to become multidisciplinary. Instructional development is crucial in providing faculty with the knowledge and skills to…

Key components of any experiential learning module are the resources students use to learn. These typically include laboratory equipment, handouts, and instructional material in the form of videos or standard operating procedures (SOPs). Their design and implementation require careful thought to ensure that students learn in an effective and…

Research on practice-based teacher education [PBTE], such as rehearsals or teaching simulations, assumes that preservice teachers [PSTs] prefer such practical approaches in comparison to more theoretical work. Few studies test this assumption or incorporate PSTs voices and perspectives on PBTE approaches. This study draws on survey data and…
