Cases on Effective Universal Design for Learning Implementation Across Schools
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) has been hailed for over a decade as a revolutionary lens that allows schools to shift their efforts to create inclusive environments, from a medical model lens to a social model approach. In recent years, UDL has gone beyond disability and impairment and is now considered an effective tool to create inclusive classroom provisions for Indigenous students and more widely for culturally diverse learners. There is now a sizable body of literature that details the benefits of implementing UDL in the K-12 sector. There is, however, a paucity of studies and papers examining the strategic challenges of developing UDL across schools and school boards. While the in...

Critical Digital Pedagogy in Higher Education
Recent efforts to solve the problems of education—created by neoliberalism in and out of higher education—have centred on the use of technology that promises efficiency, progress tracking, and automation. The editors of this volume argue that using technology in this way reduces learning to a transaction. They ask administrators, instructors, and learning designers to reflect on our relationship with these tools and explore how to cultivate a pedagogy of care in an online environment. With an eye towards identifying different and better possibilities, this collection investigates previously under-examined concepts in the field of digital pedagogy such as shared learning and trust, critical consciousness, change, and hope.
Enhancing Learning Opportunities Through Student, Scientist, and Teacher Partnerships
Student-scientist-teacher interactions provide students with several advantages. They provide opportunities to interact with experts and professionals in the field, give students a chance at meeting a role model that may impact students' career choices, and increase awareness of available career options combined with an understanding of how their skills and interests affect their career decisions. Additionally, it enhances attitudes and interest toward STEM professions for students and grants opportunities to connect with scientists as human beings and see them as "real people," replacing stereotypical perceptions of scientists. Moreover, there are many advantages for the teacher or informal...
Agricultural Education for Development in the Arab Countries
Agricultural development is an important economic engine for development in the Arab countries in North Africa and the Middle East. An essential factor to accelerate agricultural development in these countries is a well-educated and trained agricultural workforce. However, the areas of secondary school, community college, and university agricultural education have lacked attention and resources for many years. Curriculum development, instructional enhancement, practical training, and career advancement are central to agricultural education development, technology utilization, and natural resource management. The engagement of educators, administrators, business and community leaders, and pol...
Handbook of Research on Teaching With Virtual Environments and AI
The increasingly pervasive use of digital technology has catapulted society into an interconnected world where the natural boundaries between humankind and machine, virtual and real, individual and community have become less perceptible. As individuals interact with different digital technologies, they must build a digital intelligence, which must be further cultivated as it is a key competency for the future of school and work. Digital intelligence includes understanding the mutual strengths between people and technology, as well as developing an awareness in the use of digital tools in order to avoid common threats such as cyberbullying, addiction to video games, techno-stress, and more. A...
Optimizing Higher Education Learning Through Activities and Assessments
The mission of higher education in the 21st century must focus on optimizing learning for all students. In a shift from prioritizing effective teaching to active learning, it is understood that computer-enhanced environments provide a variety of ways to reach a wide range of learners who have differing backgrounds, ages, learning needs, and expectations. Integrating technology into teaching assumes greater importance to improve the learning experience. Optimizing Higher Education Learning Through Activities and Assessments is a collection of innovative research that explores the link between effective course design and student engagement and optimizes learning and assessments in technology-e...
Handbook of Research on Teaching in Multicultural and Multilingual Contexts
Several factors have resulted in increased intra- and inter-state migration. This has led to an increase in the enrollment of students with diverse linguistics backgrounds, placing more academic demands on educators. Linguistic diversity presents both opportunities and challenges for educators across the educational spectrum. Language ideologies profoundly shape and constrain the use of language as a resource for learning in multilingual or linguistically diverse classrooms. While English has become the world language, most communities remain, and are becoming more and more multicultural, multilingual, and diverse. The Handbook of Research on Teaching in Multicultural and Multilingual Contex...
Cases on Active Blended Learning in Higher Education
Active blended learning (ABL) is a pedagogical approach that combines sensemaking activities with focused interactions in appropriate learning settings. ABL has become a great learning tool as it is easily accessible online, with digitally rich environments, close peer and tutor interactions, and accommodations per individual learner needs. It encompasses a variety of concepts, methods, and techniques, such as collaborative learning, experiential learning, problem-based learning, team-based learning, and flipped classrooms. ABL is a tool used by educators to develop learner autonomy, engaging students in knowledge construction, reflection, and critique. In the current educational climate, th...
