The motivation for the development of corporate governance codes in South Africa was to ensure that companies and other organisations are managed so as to ensure ethical leadership, accountability, transparency and sustainability of these organisations. However, observers of the South African Corporate environment noted that the development of King I code of corporate governance was particularly focused on corporate bodies and not to other organisations. In order to address this imbalance...

Drawing on an example of a large systematic review that was conducted on the use of educational technology and student engagement in higher education, we provide practical insights into how we proceeded throughout the review phases. Readers and researchers embarking on a systematic review themselves might find the contents of this chapter useful, in order to better prepare themselves for issues that can arise when undertaking such an endeavour.

Digital technology has become a central aspect of higher education, inherently affecting all aspects of the student experience. It has also been linked to an increase in behavioural, affective and cognitive student engagement, the facilitation of which is a central concern of educators. In order to delineate the complex nexus of technology and student engagement, this article systematically maps research from 243 studies published between 2007 and 2016. Research within the corpus was...

Learning science researchers attempting to understand situated human practices traditionally have relied on ethnographic observation and field notes recorded after the events have occurred. However, as Jordan and Henderson articulated in the opening quote, they are faced with the gap between accounts of action and (situated) ac-tions themselves. The problem is heightened when learning science researchers become themselves participants in the setting under study. Thus, a number of learning...

Thermal comfort in learning environments influences the student’s focus and learning productivity. This study aims to evaluate and compare the adaptive thermal comfort of schoolchildren and their teachers in naturally ventilated primary schools in some selected cities in Imo State Nigeria. To achieve these objectives, the study analyzed the data collected from 330 pupils and 44 teachers in six surveyed classrooms in two types of classroom buildings. The recorded data in the surveyed...

Ethical considerations of conducting systematic reviews in educational research are not typically discussed explicitly. However, systematic reviews are frequently read and cited in documents that influence educational policy and practice. Hence, ethical issues associated with what and how systematic reviews are produced and used have serious implications. It becomes imperative for systematic reviewers to reflexively engage with a variety of ethical issues associated with potential conflicts...

The concept of systematic reviewing of research literatures became influential in the second half of the 20th century, in the context of the longstanding, and challenging, issue of how to ‘translate’ research findings into reliable guidance for practical decision-making—to determine which policies, programs, and strategies should (and should not) be adopted (Hammersley 2014; Nisbet and Broadfoot 1980).

This chapter is about teaching systematic review; it is not, however, the product of a systematic review. It combines and builds on insights from two sets of research experiences: being taught about how to conduct systematic reviews ahead of doing this myself, and more recently, conducting study of the Pedagogy of Methodological Learning for the National Centre for Research Methods in the UK. The latter engaged teachers and learners in the process of building capability and capacity in the...

This chapter shares the author's experiences of and reflections on conducting systematic reviews of flipped classroom research. The author first discusses the rationale for conducting systematic reviews and how the reviews contribute to the flipped learning field. After that, he lighlights some possible strategies, regarding literature search, article selection, and research synthesis, to improve the quality of systematic reviews.
