Journal of Archaeology and Education
This article describes what undergraduate students learned from participating in a museum docent program at a large, public university on the West Coast of the United States. The majority (93%) of students report an increase in their ability to effectively communicate specialized knowledge to museum visitors in one or more of the following ways: 1) identifying what visitors know and adjusting their explanations accordingly; 2) translating technical information to visitors; 3); communicating information in an active, hands-on manner; 4) confidently communicating their knowledge to others.

Higher Education continues to rely on adjunct faculty as most of their teaching force, and largely ignores their levels of satisfaction. As faculty have the most direct line to students on a regular basis, it should be determined if adjunct faculty are satisfied with various aspects of their jobs. Additionally, to aid the large adjunct faculty teaching force, higher education institutions are implementing centralized curriculum at higher rates particularly in online courses. These courses may erode instructional autonomy which may negatively influence faculty satisfaction. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine if the use of centralized curriculum erodes …

Teaching A More Accurate And Inclusive History Of Science, Noah Aydin
Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning
Thanks to research on primary sources in the last few decades, we know that some of the most fundamental concepts of modern math and science are a legacy of the medieval Islamic Civilization. These contributions, however, are generally not known and not taught in schools due to an inaccurate narrative of history of science that has been in circulation for a long time. There is a great need to disseminate the accurate information to the general public.

Instructional coaching is prominent in K-12 education and was bolstered in the United States due to federal support of professional development to improve student learning. Yet, despite the rise in use of instructional coaches in k-12 education, institutions of higher education ofeten do not utulize instructional coaching, or, if they do, it is not holistically integrated into an entreprise-wide support program that fosters continuous instructional improvement. As a result, the following proposal offers key insights into whta instructional coaching entails and how it might be effectively intergated into higher education.

The Problems Of Teaching And Applying Critical Ethics, Isidoro Talavera
The Problems Of Teaching And Applying Critical Ethics, Isidoro Talavera
Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning
To foster the development of ethical, responsible, and engaged citizens, it is important for students to learn to modify or correct belief molded by personal interest, motivated thinking, upbringing, and/or indoctrination. Critical ethics comes into play whenever a systematic attempt to get around the limitations of personal belief is sought to get to what ought to be done. Accordingly, I examine the problems associated with teaching and applying critical ethics—where critical thinking takes some ethical argument apart, via analysis, and evaluates whether some derived conclusion follows from the evidence to make reasonable, intelligent decisions about what to believe and what …
A Scaffolding Approach Using Interviews And Narrative Inquiry, Sharon Heilmann
A Scaffolding Approach Using Interviews And Narrative Inquiry, Sharon Heilmann
Networks: An Online Journal for Teacher Research
This article examines how educational scaffolding was used in a graduate research methods course to encourage student mastery of two qualitative research concepts, interviews and narrative inquiry. Findings suggest that scaffolding resulted in students’ mastery of both concepts as well as students’ increased attention to quality of interview questions and outcomes. Further implications suggest scaffolding would be useful in combining other qualitative topics such as integrating content analysis skills with research designs such as phenomenology, grounded theory, and case studies.

One goal of early childhood teacher educators is to teach in ways that model teaching young children. What better way to study curriculum than to design it? This article describes a graduate early childhood curriculum course in which the students participate in the process of designing the syllabus. They receive a syllabus empty of topics, schedule, and readings. Together, we design the course according to their interests and needs. By semester’s end there is a full reading list and schedule. The invitation to co-design curriculum provides opportunities for investigation, representation and reflection as does constructivist teaching for children, and demonstrates …

Often, the teaching profession spends a great deal of time looking towards the future, or considering what might be the next big trend that will help students. However, it is sometimes important to reflect back upon the texts and ideas that set the tone for the profession.
