The objectives of the study were to (1) analyze the components and indicators for enhancing classroom research competencies of student teachers, (2) study the needs of developing classroom research competencies of the student teachers, (3) to create a model for enhancing research competencies in the classroom, (4) apply the form of a model for…

Primary sources are the foundations of historical research because they are artifacts representing first-hand accounts or connections to the event, time, or place being investigated. The reality is that many IDT researchers do not have training in historical source analysis, nor do many researchers know where to find primary sources in the field…

Prospective physics teachers must have research skills because they will later utilize and transfer these skills throughout their teaching careers. However, research shows that students' research skills, including in Indonesia, are still low. In addition to equipping students with theoretical research knowledge, an emphasis is needed on the…

Understanding when it is appropriate to make causal inferences from a statistical result is a fundamental skill for science literacy. Prior research has concentrated on erroneous causal judgments about observational studies, but there is little research on whether people understand that experiments provide stronger justification for causal claims.…

This article explores experiences of teaching qualitative research (QR) broadly, and qualitative methods (QM) more specifically in medicine, highlighting the challenges faced, and offering recommendations for overcoming them. Using collective online interviews, collaborative autoethnography (CAE) was employed to generate data comprising educator's…

Beliefs about conducting research and completing major projects, such as a thesis or marketing campaign, suggest that previous experience, guidance from a mentor, and cohesive teams are particularly important in boosting the confidence to conduct research in graduate students (i.e., research self-efficacy). Although these factors are also thought…

The training of researchers in the development of educational competencies is the central issue of this study. The process for research training is described. Training researchers in the development of educational competences is advocated and a profile of research skills developed. Training for research is different from training for the teaching…

Students experience the research-teaching nexus differently as they progress through their first three years of undergraduate study depending on the discipline. The question is if students, within the same discipline, experience the nexus differently depending on the profile of the institution where they study. The present study explored students'…

Although concepts such as research without borders have become more commonplace in recent decades, few studies have investigated the capabilities that global researchers require to cross both cultural and disciplinary borders. This paper explores global capabilities along with strategies and spaces that may facilitate academic researchers'…

Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) can provide undergraduate students access to research opportunities when student and faculty resources are limited. In addition to expanding research opportunities, CUREs may also be explored as a pedagogical tool for improving student learning of course content and laboratory skills, as well…

Research is one of the trifocal functions of higher education in the Philippines. It is further cascaded to undergraduate research to ensure that undergraduates in collaboration with their mentor contribute intellectual discoveries or creative output relative to their discipline through research. This phenomenological research was undertaken to…

The purpose of this study was to investigate online education doctoral students' perceptions of their research competencies. The researchers utilized the Scholar-Practitioner Research Development Scale (Rockinson-Szapkiw, 2018) which consisted of 24 Likert-based items to assess research competency in five areas: attitude toward or value of…

Purpose: Skills development for business students is increasingly becoming more important in business education and the workplace. In this paper, students' research skills are examined. The purpose of this paper is to identify some of the issues and challenges students face in developing research skills and how these can be addressed.…

The purpose of this article is to describe scholarly research to the degree that when something labeled "research" is encountered in daily life, the reader will be equipped to discern its credibility. Specifically, the article addresses the following questions: (1) What exactly is "research"?; (2) What distinguishes scholarly…

Educational research plays a crucial role in the advancement of knowledge in the teaching profession. In fact, raising the quality standards in education necessitates teachers' engagement in different levels and dimensions of research. To this end, improving teachers' research literacy is an essential first step, which also entails assessing the…
