Albertyn, Ruth; Bennett, Kathy – Higher Education Research and Development, 2021
Students may experience uncertainties when planning and conducting research. On the one hand, a measure of uncertainty is an inherent part of knowledge creation and represents the positive dimension of uncertainty in research. On the other hand, if uncertainties are not handled well, it could negatively affect the process and quality of research.…

Raia, Federica; Legados, Lezel; Silacheva, Irina; Plotkin, Jennifer B.; Krishnan, Srikanth; Deng, Mario C. – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2021
STEM disciplines are the dominant culture in K-12 education. With its study of organs and diseases that afflict patients' bodies, Western evidence-based medicine is seen and understood in the modern cultural paradigm as a science and as the practice in which a subject, the doctor, acts on an object; the patient's body--a dominant culture in the…

Kozlova, Mariia; Yeomans, Julian Scott – INFORMS Transactions on Education, 2022
Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is widely used in many different disciplines in order to analyze problems that involve uncertainty. Simulation decomposition has recently provided a simple, but powerful, advancement to the standard Monte Carlo approach. Its value for better informing decision making has been previously shown in the investment-analysis…

Sinha, Anamika; Bondestam, Fredrik – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
In the aftermath of the global #Metoo-movement, sexual harassment (SH) and other forms of gender-based violence (GBV) have emerged at the forefront of public debate and research. Higher education instituions (HEI) worldwide have responded with different preventive measures, targeting context-specific challenges and solutions. In India, post the…

Kervinen, Anttoni; Aivelo, Tuomas – Science Education, 2023
Uncertainty is endemic to scientific research practices; therefore, it is also an important element in learning about science. Studies have shown that experiences and management of uncertainty regarding the epistemic practices of science can support learning. Whereas the common strategies of supporting students in handling uncertainty rely on the…

Taft, Seth A. – Journal of Research in Music Education, 2023
Teaching music can be very stressful. The music education literature includes investigations of sources of stress and suggestions for stress relief, although it lacks a consistent underlying conceptual framework for stress. Role stress--a framework for understanding stress related to workplace dynamics--has the potential to provide structure while…

Akpolat, Tuba – International Journal of Psychology and Educational Studies, 2023
The ability of organizations to adapt quickly to change and take action in uncertain situations brought about by a crisis or change is vital for their development and continuity. Teachers, who are education workers, form the basis of the education system by producing education services. Therefore, the power of the education system to take action…

Wang, Peng – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2020
Drawing upon the job characteristic model and the "management of meaning" perspective, this study examines the process and conditions through which transformational leadership fosters employee creativity. Our results reveal that the effect of transformational leadership on creativity is mediated by employees' perceptions of core job…

Zhang, Yayun; Yurovsky, Daniel; Yu, Chen – Cognitive Science, 2021
Recent laboratory experiments have shown that both infant and adult learners can acquire word-referent mappings using cross-situational statistics. The vast majority of the work on this topic has used unfamiliar objects presented on neutral backgrounds as the visual contexts for word learning. However, these laboratory contexts are much different…

Ma, Timmy; Komarova, Natalia L. – Cognitive Science, 2019
Learning in natural environments is often characterized by a degree of inconsistency from an input. These inconsistencies occur, for example, when learning from more than one source, or when the presence of environmental noise distorts incoming information; as a result, the task faced by the learner becomes ambiguous. In this study, we investigate…
