This study aims to examine the formal integration of scientific research within teacher preparation programs at universities in Kazakhstan, aiming to enhance the research capacity of pre-service teachers. It introduces a research-based learning (RBL) model for delivering research components in postgraduate programs, tailored to address individual…

As the engineering education research (EER) field is yet to fully mature, there are few formally established pathways to EER. Consequently, most researchers transition to EER after completing technical engineering qualifications. Reconciling this training with the distinctly different expectations of educational research creates unique challenges…

"The professional doctorate in education prepares educators for the application of appropriate and specific practices, the generation of new knowledge, and for the stewardship of the profession" (CPED, 2009). The Johns Hopkins University EdD attracts diverse learners with varying experiences with statistics and research methods. These…

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, schools across the country have pivoted to providing a range of instructional opportunities including remote, hybrid, and modified in-person options with a commitment to keeping our society safe and supporting our nations' youth in continuing their education.

We researchers have taken searching for information for granted for far too long. The COVID-19 pandemic shows us the boundaries of academic searching capabilities, both in terms of our know-how and of the systems we have. With hundreds of studies published daily on COVID-19, for example, we struggle to find, stay up-to-date, and synthesize…

In the literature, research education is insufficiently addressed. Existing studies often document pre-/post-educational interventions. Accounts of individual scholars colored by their views and experience are rarely considered. This study describes the research experience of a faculty member in academic medicine and examines the values and…

This article synthesizes ideas that emerged over the course of a 10-week symposium titled "Teaching Reproducible Research: Educational Outcomes" https://www.projecttier.org/fellowships-and-workshops/2021-spring-symposium that took place in the spring of 2021.

Therefore, adopting a qualitative approach, this…

The purpose of this study was to describe how Japanese adapted physical education (APE) graduate students engage themselves in learning research skills through masters' research thesis projects. In this study, andragogy theory was utilized, which allowed the researchers to understand Japanese graduate students' learning experiences of master's…

To address the gap in locally driven mental health capacity strengthening initiatives in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt), researchers from Birzeit University (BZU) and King's College London (KCL) developed a unique short course focusing on the intersection between methods, mental health, and conflict. The course was delivered in the West…

The current crisis of confidence in psychological science has spurred on field-wide reforms to enhance transparency, reproducibility, and replicability. To solidify these reforms within the scientific community, student courses on open science practices are essential. Here we describe the content of our Research Master course "Good Research…
