The first aim of this article, addressed in section 1, is to define what is meant, and not meant, by task and task-based language teaching (TBLT). The second is to summarize and evaluate 14 ...criticisms that have been made of both. Section 2 responds to five alleged problems with TBLT's psycholinguistic rationale, section 3 to six at the classroom level, and section 4 to three claimed problems with implementing TBLT in specific contexts. A few of the criticisms touch on important matters, but most, I will suggest, are nonissues. The third aim of the article is to identify some genuine problems in need of resolution—real issues—and briefly to illustrate research programs under way to address them.
Aim
To determine whether the use of an online or blended learning paradigm has the potential to enhance the teaching of clinical skills in undergraduate nursing.
Background
The need to adequately ...support and develop students in clinical skills is now arguably more important than previously considered due to reductions in practice opportunities. Online and blended teaching methods are being developed to try and meet this requirement, but knowledge about their effectiveness in teaching clinical skills is limited.
Design
Mixed methods systematic review, which follows the Joanna Briggs Institute User guide version 5.
Data sources
Computerized searches of five databases were undertaken for the period 1995–August 2013.
Review methods
Critical appraisal and data extraction were undertaken using Joanna Briggs Institute tools for experimental/observational studies and interpretative and critical research. A narrative synthesis was used to report results.
Results
Nineteen published papers were identified. Seventeen papers reported on online approaches and only two papers reported on a blended approach. The synthesis of findings focused on the following four areas: performance/clinical skill, knowledge, self‐efficacy/clinical confidence and user experience/satisfaction. The e‐learning interventions used varied throughout all the studies.
Conclusion
The available evidence suggests that online learning for teaching clinical skills is no less effective than traditional means. Highlighted by this review is the lack of available evidence on the implementation of a blended learning approach to teaching clinical skills in undergraduate nurse education. Further research is required to assess the effectiveness of this teaching methodology.

In the era of digital economy, enterprises are increasingly focusing on new demands, and the integration of new technologies and new business models is advancing together. This new business model ...puts forward higher requirements for the construction of the business teaching system and talent cultivation. The teaching model plays a bridge and link role between teaching theory and teaching practice. To achieve innovation in business education and talent cultivation, the teaching mode must keep up with the times, clarify the training positioning, and integrate the concept of digital economy development. This study starts with exploring teaching models and proposes feasible teaching methods to effectively cultivate the ability to use theoretical knowledge to solve practical business problems, and help students learn towards the future.

Este artículo examina críticamente discursos y prácticas pedagógicas desarrollados en la Escuela de Arquitectura de la Universidad de Costa Rica (Arquis) a partir de 1971, mostrando cómo principios ...derivados de las ciencias de la computación sirvieron para reflexionar en torno a su método de diseño. Se expone cómo las ciencias de la computación dejaron huellas tanto en su organización curricular como en los discursos empleados para abordar pedagógicamente problemas arquitectónicos, que se extienden hasta el presente. Así, el artículo ofrece perspectivas para entender el papel que la computación ha desempeñado como insumo teórico--y vehículo de influencia--en la pedagogía arquitectónica en Costa Rica.
Promoting creativity in the dynamic field of education has become a critical goal for educators, aiming to prepare students with the essential abilities for success in various professional and ...personal situations. As educational institutions globally attempt to promote creative learning outcomes, there is still a notable lack of knowledge regarding efficient techniques for teaching creativity. In this paper, we address the pressing need to bridge the knowledge gap associated with teaching creativity in artistic disciplines. The goal is to offer educators and researchers detailed knowledge of the methods used to promote creativity in art and design education by combining research, historical insights, and modern advancements. We explore the complexities of creative ideas, both classic and current educational methods, as well as the distinct problems and possibilities in art and design education. Finally, the study provides insights into the ongoing debate about creativity with respect to art and design education, offering suggestions for pedagogical innovation in the future to meet the dynamic challenges and potentials within the artistic and design disciplines.
At present, the development speed of international economic and cultural integration is accelerating. As one of the world’s common languages, English is of great significance in university teaching. ...As the foundation of English education, linguistics plays an irreplaceable role in the study of the nature, law and application of language. Studying linguistics can enable students to better understand and use English. Therefore, guided by the basic principles of English linguistics, discussing the countermeasures of English teaching plays a very important role in improving college students’ comprehensive ability of English listening, speaking, reading and writing and their ability to carry out cross-cultural communication in universities. This study will take English linguistics theory as the research object, and from the construction of reasonable teaching task, create reasonable teaching environment, build team linguistics learning model three aspects put forward the English linguistics theory in college English teaching strategy, for the development of college English teaching to provide certain guidance.
There are many theories that explain how adults learn and each has its own merits. This Guide explains and explores the more commonly used ones and how they can be used to enhance student and faculty ...learning. The Guide presents a model that combines many of the theories into a flow diagram which can be followed by anyone planning learning. The schema can be used at curriculum planning level, or at the level of individual learning. At each stage of the model, the Guide identifies the responsibilities of both learner and educator. The role of the institution is to ensure that the time and resources are available to allow effective learning to happen. The Guide is designed for those new to education, in the hope that it can unravel the difficulties in understanding and applying the common learning theories, whilst also creating opportunities for debate as to the best way they should be used.
