In this paper we develop a case for introducing a new teaching tool to undergraduate mathematics. Lean is an interactive theorem prover that instantly checks the correctness of every step and provides immediate feedback. Teaching with Lean might present a challenge, in that students must write their proofs in a formal way using a specific syntax.…

A mixture of salt water and isopropyl alcohol is immiscible, forming two separate liquids with the organic layer on top and aqueous layer on bottom. When universal indicator is added to such a mixture, all of the indicator compounds in the universal indicator preferentially dissolve in the alcohol--except for phenolphthalein at high pH. Mixtures…

Recent literature underlines the increasing use of online platforms in learning undergraduate mathematics, where students refer to these as supplementary resources to develop their mathematical understanding. Through an intrinsic case study, we focus on a highly viewed YouTube learning resource for learning derivative. The selected case is from…

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) software has recently increased exponentially. Generative AI capabilities have moved from fiction to fact. This technology is changing the way we engage in Entrepreneurship, research it, and teach it. The significant impact on Entrepreneurship teaching is the focus of this paper. Any instructor, regardless…

As a rule, an experiment carried out at school or in undergraduate study courses is rather simple and not very informative. However, when the experiments are to be performed using modern methods, they are often abstract and difficult to understand. Here, we describe a quick and simple experiment, namely the enzymatic characterization of ptyalin…

Proof comprehension is an important skill for students to develop in their proof-based courses, yet students are rarely afforded opportunities to develop this skill. In this paper, we describe two implementations of an activity structure that was developed to give students the opportunity to engage with complex proofs and to develop their proof…

High-impact practices (HIPs) are anticipated to engage both traditional and nontraditional students in different ways, providing substantial educational benefits and correlating with better retention and engagement. This study reports on the development of an analytical tool to assess the impact of individual and collective HIP participation on…

Despite the fact that much research in higher education institutions has focused on students' academic achievement from various perspectives, the roles of learners' academic resilience and academic commitment in their academic performance have got little attention. Thus, the present study aimed at examining the role of students' academic…

Empathy in healthcare can increase the quality of medical care and contribute to developing a positive doctor-patient relationship. Balint groups employ case-based talks to investigate, reflect on, and improve the clinician-patient relationship. It has been proposed to be an effective technique for increasing clinician empathy. The study aimed to…

The authors look to the choque, the literal crashing of the castanets together, as a metaphor for the collision of cultures, histories, practices, and values (Anzaldúa 1987) when concert dance and folk dance traditions coexist within the changing contours of an academic studio. They offer potential interdependent disruptors for folk dance…

The purpose of this current study was to (1) investigate the text coverage that the BNC/COCA Word Family Lists (Nation, 2017) and the Academic Word List (Coxhead, 2000) provided in the first-year undergraduate economics textbooks, and (2) estimate the vocabulary size required to read the textbooks. A corpus of 1,343,493 words from the economics…

The objectives of this research were: 1) to study the current situation of digital management in universities in Guangxi, 2) to develop the purpose model for improving digital management in universities in Guangxi, 3) to evaluate the suitability and feasibility of the purpose model for improving digital management in universities in Guangxi. The…

The nursing profession has evolved significantly over the past decade. As a result of changes in the healthcare environment, a more diverse patient population, higher patient acuity, burnout and staffing shortages, nurses are practicing more autonomously than before. Nurses must demonstrate the ability to use critical thinking and clinical…

Modern digital technologies are advancing rapidly, driving transformative changes. For Information Systems (IS) educators, maintaining curricula that prepare graduates for the digital economy is imperative. This study developed a knowledge pool of 121 common keywords in digital transformation through literature review and investigated their…

The implementation of a research-based curriculum that enables students to develop essential capabilities for this complex world is challenging. There is limited understanding of the implementation of a research-based curriculum in a whole degree programme, and few studies examined how faculty members and students perceived such a curriculum. This…
