Inquiry‐based learning has been promoted as a student‐centred approach that can strengthen the links between teaching and research. This article examines potential of inquiry‐based to teaching–research nexus by analysing three case studies: ‘structured inquiry’ third‐year endocrinology medicine module, ‘guided second‐year political communications course an ‘open ecology course. The relation research differed significantly amongst these cases led reconceptualisation learning. A model was then...
Abstract This study involved a meta-analysis of 10 cases inquiry-based learning (IBL) in undergraduate education to determine the factors which both enable and constrain its use. The enabling were found include: teacher attributes – being student-centred, reflective but rebellious; course design questions stimulating learning, collaborative progressive development inquiry skills, required student preparation constructive alignment; department institutional IBL more accepted if permeating...
<i>Background/Aim:</i> A randomized controlled trial was conducted involving 67 stable adult haemodialysis patients with hyperphosphataemia. The objective to determine the effect of monthly dietetic consultations on patients’ serum phosphate concentrations and calcium × product. <i>Methods:</i> intervention group received for 6 months using advanced counselling skills aimed at limiting intake in diet improving compliance binders, whereas standard care every provided...
Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is promoted as a teaching approach that can enhance student outcomes. IBL be categorised according to scale (e.g. tasks, course/module/paper, degree), mode (structured, guided, open) and framing (information or discovery-oriented). Our research used survey instrument determine how perceptions of processes intended outcomes (ILOs) varied in response courses with different modes IBL. The was completed by 940 students 15 across range disciplines levels. All types...
The Makerspace phenomenon has morphed into three readily identifiable types characterised by accessibility: dedicated, distributed, and mobile. research presented in this paper describes a type of that is defined its purpose: to improve the confidence ability primary education students STEM education. This approach innovative timely given renewed interest investment federal state governments A new model professional learning currently being validated an extended, funded project framed...

The rapid expansion of fully online delivery initial teacher education (ITE) seen in the past decade has generated some concerns about impact on quality. This is set within broader, sustained ITE generally. Much criticism been made without sufficient evidence to support claims, largely due still-nascent base. data presented here contributes that base by providing demographic and academic achievement insights for cohorts graduate teachers (N = 2008) across years 2012 2018 who have engaged at...
This case study explores student perceptions and experiences of advising at a New Zealand university.
