Abstract:
Significant research has been conducted into the preferences of college students for what their course instructors wear while teaching face-to-face university classes. This article focuses on a specific focus within that research: students within a teacher education department of a midsized midwestern state university. The study used a survey to examine student preferences into this topic. Data were gathered using an online survey of 92 teacher education department students in one midwestern state university.

ABSTRACTAs more universities view students as customers and as more critics accuse universities of political bias, it is important to learn how students respond to professors’ politics. Does a politically active professor make a course more or less appealing? In this experiment, I randomly presented descriptions of course instructors to current university students and asked them to describe their appeal. Subjects expressed greater interest in professors who were politically ambiguous or whose politics matched their own. Conservative professors were more polarizing than liberal professors, and

Abstract:
Many students find learning statistics difficult, especially novice learners. Instructors also struggle to teach statistics due to many challenges, such as students’ misconceptions, lack of math skills, negative attitudes, and deficient instructional methods. A new pedagogical approach called Decision-Based Learning (DBL) has been developed to help instructors and students; however there are limited studies about teachers’ and students’ experiences with this method, particularly in international settings. For this project, a group of Peruvian university professors were trained to use DBL. This

Abstract:
This paper introduces a novel professor-recommendation system designed specifically for community college and university courses. Building upon an existing algorithm for one-on-one teacher recommendations, we leveraged insights from the literature on Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) recommender algorithms. By analysing various approaches, we combined and refined ideas to develop an optimised system. Our approach utilises a tri-module framework that incorporates supervised and unsupervised learning techniques. The first module employs a Gradient-boosted Decision Tree algorithm, augmented with

The purpose of this study is to derive implications for the implementation of general education by analyzing the perceptions of professors and students in various majors at universities regarding general education. The interviews with 10 professors and 10 students in various majors on the goals, methods, and influencing factors of liberal arts education yielded various implications. Strengthening students' ability to think in a convergent way was identified as an important goal of general education that both instructors and students agree on.

In sport management higher education, doctoral students and early-career faculty are often tasked with teaching university courses, yet the training and support rarely match the demands of the job. This paper explores the utility of a professional learning community (PLC) within a sport management department at an American university using a case study methodology. A PLC creates space for colleague collaboration among faculty with similar objectives and goals. The PLC examined in this manuscript includes a mix of experienced (i.e., associate and full professors) and inexperienced professors (i

The past few decades have witnessed a growing interest in using English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI), especially in higher education. Although the English language has rapidly shifted from being taught as a foreign language to becoming a medium of instruction, empirical research in this area is still limited in the context of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), especially in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, the present case study explores translanguaging in the EMI classroom. The study used semi-structured interviews to investigate teachers’ perceptions and practices regarding trans
