The purpose of this study was to examine graduate degree programs in music education in NASM accredited institutions with the specific areas of degree and institution information, admissions, and curricula. For this content analysis, I collected data through the websites of NASM accredited institutions that offered graduate degrees in music…

This article describes how and why the Dunning-Kruger effect, in which novice students fail to recognize their own lack of research skills, often occurs with the one-shot library instruction mode. In contrast, we offer a holistic model of instruction that emphasizes closer information literacy connections to higher education curricula. Through…

This book is designed to build and enhance educators' knowledge about decision-making processes, including the use of multiple sources of assessment and data to inform instruction, interventions, services, and supports for all students within a comprehensive system to conduct action research. This resource demystifies, describes, and connects the…

The reference librarians of Trinity Western University have a strong mission-driven commitment to teach information literacy, but there is a significant contrast between the amount of instruction they can provide and the demanding task of developing all students as skilled researchers. The growing teach-the-teacher model suggested an option to…

This narrative review examines the thematic content and evolution of information literacy textbooks published between 2005 and 2022.

The research process theme highlights the procedural aspects of conducting library…

This study determined the effectiveness of a developed MOOC 'Statistical Analysis and Information Processing for Research' in enhancing Kazakhstan's young researchers' research skills. This study employed pedagogical experience generalization, pedagogical observation, discussion, questioning, and mathematical statistics to process experimental…

Technology has revolutionised how we interact, work, and learn, with digital literacy offering lifelong learning opportunities. College students heavily rely on the Internet for education. As more students with developmental difficulties enter higher education, it is vital to understand how disparities impact classroom learning. This study…

This study examined the role of science identity in a two-year upper-division research training program that prepares diverse undergraduate students for a research career. Using the annual year-end student evaluation data, we examined whether science identity is a predictor or an outcome of learning that enhances career preparation in biomedical…

Background: Participating in research opportunities during undergraduate education is met with myriad benefits. Students learn the scientific research process, how to think critically, develop transferable skills, refine public speaking, build a professional network, and gain confidence. Despite the numerous benefits of undergraduate research…

Past studies on doctoral education have mostly focused on the critical role of supervisors in students' research experience. However, the role of peers has been relatively neglected. It is not clear how both supervisors and peers contribute to doctoral students' research experience. One possibility is that they are additive, which means that both…

The Research Experiences in Marine Science (REMS) Program is a Hawai'i place-based CURE (course-based undergraduate research experience) for late high school and early undergraduate students wherein students conduct independent research that draws upon the history, culture, and ecosystem of their local communities. In addition to providing…

Following academic globalization, successful integration into the international research community is a fundamental interest for all participating countries. The success of these internationalization processes, however, are often under scrutiny, and the results are rarely unequivocal. This holds true for Central and Eastern Europe, which usually…

Research literacy is essential for teachers to practice their profession based on research-based knowledge. The present study aimed to develop and validate the Research Literacy Scale (RLS) and investigate teachers' research literacy based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and research utilization models. The data was collected from teachers…

This article seeks to provide a research-based argument in favor of encouraging teachers to seek authentic writing territories when asking students to conduct and disseminate research. At some point, research writing moved towards formulaic, inauthentically structured essays that lacked authentic audiences and thus failed to provide the space to…

The Philippine government has described the state of the education system, including graduate education, as both "miseducation" and a "failed system," resulting in poor quality. In response, the Philippine Commission on Higher Education has introduced a new policy implicitly called the "no publication, no graduation…
