Internships are an integral component of most undergraduate and graduate public administration programs. These learning opportunities allow students to get practical experience in a workplace setting before graduation and provide them with an opportunity to apply knowledge gained in the classroom to the "real world." But what are…

This research investigated the relationship between emotional intelligence of university students and their resilience ability during crisis: the pandemic of COVID-19. A large-scale quantitative approach was applied with a national survey in the midst of the fourth wave of COVID-19 outbreak in Vietnam. The research obtained data from 2252 students…

The COVID-19 pandemic severely affected the medical education worldwide. The infection risk for medical students and healthcare personnel who work with COVID-19 positive cadavers or tissues remains unclear. Moreover, COVID-19 positive cadavers have been rejected by medical schools, adversely impacting the continuum of medical education. Herein,…

This paper considers what is at stake in the idea of universitas--a community of masters and scholars --in the context of the shifting landscape of higher education engendered by the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing on the philosophy of Gabriel Marcel, we consider what it means to be together in a university community. We draw a distinction between the…

Over the last several years, scholars have drawn attention to the growing rates of food insecurity among college and university students in the US (Broton & Goldrick-Rab, 2018; The Hope Center for College, Community, and Justice [The Hope Center], 2021). Food insecurity is a factor associated with lower degree completion rates among students…

After millions of American schoolchildren fell behind during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states and school districts are looking at year-round school calendars as a way to recoup lost learning. Typically, year-round calendars don't increase learning time but rather spread school days more equally across 12 months, with a shorter summer vacation…

A main goal of this paper is to complicate "learning loss" as the only, or even the main, thing schools should be concerned about as they respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. While schools have a responsibility to make sure students who are enrolled in school are learning, this cannot come at the cost of ignoring the other substantial…

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has placed enormous strain on health systems around the world, undermining the mental health and wellbeing of healthcare workers. Supporting people with intellectual disabilities may be particularly challenging for workers, as some people with intellectual disabilities may have a limited understanding of the…

The pandemic created obstacles for our therapeutic recreation students who could not find or participate in an in-person internship. The only viable option was to create a virtual internship experience that still met NCTRC standards for national certification. This learning activity details the steps taken to create the experience, what was…

"Presence in the Online World: A Contemplative Perspective and Practice Guide for Educators" is an edited collection that addresses the question of how we can bring the insights of contemplative pedagogy into the space of online learning. While the digital space can be one of distraction and disconnection, contemplative pedagogy offers…

The pandemic challenged many of us as researchers, requiring that we reflect upon our methods and make modifications to allow for online facilitation. As researchers who traditionally use Participatory Research Methods (PRMs), we were significantly challenged, to reflect on our approach and the ways in which we may remain true to the spirit of…

This study's research aim is to discover how the COVID-19 pandemic impacts early career researchers' work lives, prospects, and scholarly communication behavior. Early career researchers (ECRs), including doctoral students, post-docs, and pre-tenure faculty, are the next generation of scientists, researchers, scholars, teachers, and academic…

School leaders have faced unprecedented challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic. Though there is existing research into crisis management, the majority of the work focuses on other industries outside of education, such as the business sector, public management, government and military leadership, and nonprofit management. Thus, there is a continued…
