ChatGPT is taking the world and the education sector by storm. Many educators are still hesitant to integrate it within their curricula, owing to the limited practical and theoretical guidance on its applications, despite early conceptual studies advocating for its potential benefits. This pedagogical innovation applied an effectual logic to…

The increase in digital teaching and learning methodologies creates the opportunity for new educational approaches, both in terms of pedagogical practice and in the availability of new technological tools. The flipped classroom as an active teaching methodology is one example of blended learning (b-learning), which aims to harmonize and enhance…

Background: Staff-client relationships impact the quality of support and life of people with severe to profound intellectual disabilities and challenging behavior, but are challenging to build due to clients' intense, complex and varying support needs. The present study explores the perspectives of professionals and relatives on what affects these…

Background: Although open-ended projects are common in the first and final years of US engineering programs, middle-year courses tend to utilize simpler highly constrained problems. Such problems can elicit knowledge and social practices typical of school activity ("School World"), with limited applicability in real engineering work…

Bhutan's overarching development paradigm of Gross National Happiness (GNH) promotes a harmonious balance between material and non-material dimensions. But Bhutan's evaluation practice has not yet adopted the principles of GNH, preventing evaluation findings and recommendations from aligning with the priorities of GNH. This article makes the case…

The efforts towards reduction of violence in public schools could be jeopardized by failure to address the perceived efficacy, ethical concerns and the limited application of behavioral threat assessment and management (BTAM). The purpose of this qualitative single case study was to explore the behavioral threat assessment's efficacy,…

Over the past decade, co-supervision of PhD candidates has become increasingly common across the disciplines. However, co-supervision has been explored previously primarily from the candidates' viewpoint and in small-scale qualitative studies. We have extended the research by examining co-supervisory experience from the supervisor's perspective,…

As the engineering education system continuously evolves to meet the demands of modern industry and society, there is a need for a methodology that would manage and resolve the complexities inherent in engineering educational systems. Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is a structured approach to system design that utilizes models across all…

This study aimed to create an educational innovation called "Online Self-Training Program for Empowering Teachers' Learning to Strengthen Students' Teamwork Skills" conducted with Research and Development (R&D) to be effective according to specified criteria. It can be broadly applied to the development of teachers and students in…

Effectively working in an engineering workplace requires strong teamwork skills, yet the existing literature within various disciplines reveals discrepancies in evaluating these skills. This complicates the design of a generic teamwork peer evaluation tool for engineering students. This study aims to address this gap by introducing the DRIVE…

Effective collaboration and teamwork skills are critical in high-risk sectors, as deficiencies in these areas can result in injuries and risk of death. To foster the growth of these vital skills, immersive learning spaces have been created to simulate real-world scenarios, enabling students to safely improve their teamwork abilities. In such…

Conflict expression describes the way people convey opposition across six types (debate, argue, tease, dismiss, complain, and disguise). The concept has garnered increased attention among management scholars, but experiential exercises to guide instruction are needed.
