This paper proposes that a curricular shift we call "decanonization" is shaping contemporary English Major degrees at Canadian universities. We believe it is a response to a complex set of challenges currently facing departments as they program their undergraduate degrees in English, and, in a qualified way, we endorse it as a positive…

Hoang, Viet-Ngu; Watson, Justin – Decision Sciences Journal of Innovative Education, 2022
There is an increasing demand to introduce Introductory Business Analytics (IBA) courses into undergraduate business education. Many real-world business contexts require predictive analytics to understand the determinants of a dichotomous outcome; hence, IBA courses should include binary logistic regression analysis. This article provides our…

Two essential questions for those leading the field of public administration are: What do we teach our students, and how do we train them? As scholars, we pay significant attention to our research, often to the detriment of recognizing the potential for merging our research with teaching through the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL).…

Lei, Simon A.; Lei, Stacey Y. – Education, 2019
Hybrid courses at the college level have become increasingly popular for over two decades. Traditional, face-to-face and distance learning (online) have satisfied a large number of students in terms of effectively learning new course materials and retaining these materials long after college graduation. Hybrid courses attempt to end the sharp…

Pinto, Alon; Karsenty, Ronnie – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2020
While proof is often presented to mathematics undergraduates as a well-defined mathematical object, the proofs students encounter in different pedagogical contexts may bear salient differences. In this paper we draw on the work of Dawkins and Weber (2017) to explore variations in norms and values underlying a proof across different pedagogical…

Chatha, Courtney J.; Bretz, Stacey Lowery – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
In response to the Coronavirus-19 pandemic, higher education institutions quickly moved to emergency remote learning, and most human subjects research came to an immediate halt. Chemistry education researchers who wanted to continue data collection were confronted by many challenges, including research designs and data collection methods that had…

The COVID-19 pandemic has had broad ranging impacts on the delivery of education at universities. In this context, hybrid-flexible teaching, or HyFlex (HF), has been offered at my university as a mode of delivery ostensibly suitable to what is ultimately a disrupted teaching environment. HF involves the delivery of a subject simultaneously in…

O'Connell, John P. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2019
Thermodynamics challenges teachers and learners. Its pervasiveness about nature, mathematical abstractness, nonnumerical relations, and complexity in applications can inhibit understanding and usage, especially by undergraduates. Perspectives are given about these obstacles, and some suggestions are made to enhance comprehension of the discipline.

Sutton-Brady, Catherine – Marketing Education Review, 2021
In March 2020 education as we know it was changed in the blink of an eye. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic reverberated throughout higher education around the world. Face-to-face classes were canceled and overnight many of us had to engage with on-line teaching and learning. This paper will look at the transition from face-to-face teaching, at…

Fryer, Tom; Westlake, Steve; Jones, Steven – Higher Education Policy Institute, 2022
There are increasing calls for the UCAS personal statement to be reformed.
