Hartikainen, Susanna; Rintala, Heta; Pylväs, Laura; Nokelainen, Petri – Education Sciences, 2019
Active learning has gained growing political, instructional, and research interest. However, the definitions of active learning are wide. The learning outcomes related to it have been mostly positive but the measurement methods are not without problems. This review provides an overview of active learning, especially in the context of engineering…

Regmi, Kapil Dev – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2019
In recent decades, educational policy researchers have considered critical policy sociology, mostly known as 'policy sociology', as a useful research methodology for analysing educational policies. However, despite its increasing popularity, policy sociology has been a confusing concept hence it is often used interchangeably with other terms such…

Thompson, W. Burt – Teaching of Psychology, 2019
When a psychologist announces a new research finding, it is often based on a rejected null hypothesis. However, if that hypothesis is true, the claim is a false alarm. Many students mistakenly believe that the probability of committing a false alarm equals alpha, the criterion for statistical significance, which is typically set at 5%. Instructors…

van Velzen, Joke H. – Research in the Schools, 2019
Research on teaching effectiveness, especially those concerning teaching approaches and instructional strategies, rarely shows conclusively the effectiveness of an intervention.

Rea Preston, Lauren – Whiteness and Education, 2019
This story begins with the assumption that I, the White female researcher, would elicit 'better' data from White participants. I told my Black female professor, 'I'm gonna use this White face!' This became a metaphor to describe my entry into the site and the various interactions that took place there. I conclude that the way that my racial…

Heng, Tang T. – Journal of International Students, 2020
Scholars argue that higher education and international student research suffer from a lack of theoretical engagement, which is epistemologically limiting. This is troubling as theory frames research design and findings and pluralizes our understanding of a phenomenon. Given the large number of Chinese international students worldwide (and related…
