Feedback literacy includes students' abilities to understand, use and benefit from feedback processes; it is important for the development of self-directed learning, SDL. Considering all of the places where students can potentially learn, especially the clinic, we would argue that feedback has been too narrowly defined. This study aims to explore…

Preservice teachers' schooling during their "apprenticeship of observation" has long been a focus of attention in teacher education as it is seen as influential in the development of teacher beliefs and in limiting preservice teachers' openness to alternative conceptions of teaching. Looking through the lens of autobiographical memory,…

Blended course designs have been increasingly adopted in medical education. However, research on the relations between the key aspects of students' learning experience and their learning outcomes often only measures students' self-reported experience, neglecting what they actually do in learning. This study combined both self-reported and…

Given the inclusion of sensory reactivity as a diagnostic criterion for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and the theorized etiological role of sensory reactivity in the development of autism, adequate sensory measures of sensory reactivity in autism, including measures extending to use in infancy, are needed. Adequate sensory measurement relies on…

This paper presents a case study of how two teacher educators responded to the disparities and challenges of field experience opportunities for undergraduate teacher candidates. The purpose of the study was to explore teacher candidates' perceptions of the benefits and challenges of having the teacher educators physically present during virtual…

What happens when undergraduate dance pedagogy students observe dance educators' teaching practices in diverse dance education sectors? Traditional field observation focuses primarily on the teacher, teaching methods, and classroom management. Comparatively, critical field observations examine teacher and learner action equally through rich…

Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) hold a unique positionality as instructors and research mentors to undergraduate students, research mentees to faculty members, and employees to an institution. With limited pedagogical training and teaching resources, the enactment of planned teaching activities and learning resources may be influenced by how…

This work presents experiential criticism as a methodology for researching experience in education. The approach draws on elements of pragmatism, phenomenology, ethnography, and educational criticism and connoisseurship and was developed through a study of the adventure education experience. It is comprised of three modes of inquiry: (1)…

When deciding whether to trust someone's claims, how do children combine - over multiple interactions - information about that person's general behavioral tendencies (traits) with that person's ongoing (and changing) rate of providing accurate claims? Children aged 4-8 played 11 rounds of a find-the-sticker game. For each round, an informant…

Higher education instructors are inundated with options to engage their students in virtual observation to improve the learning experience, yet more research is needed to identify effective practices to establish a virtual field experience. The purpose of this case study is to evaluate a virtual field experience utilizing video playback that…

To address the need for students to better comprehend process management concepts in an undergraduate-level operations management course, we proposed and examined the effectiveness of an experiential learning activity, the "Service Process Observation Exercise (SPOE)." After teaching process management topics in the form of a traditional…

This study examined the ways in which an equity analytics tool -- the SEET system -- supported middle school science teachers' reflections on the experiences of diverse students in their classrooms. The tool provides teachers with "equity visualizations" -- disaggregated classroom data by gender and race/ethnicity -- designed to support…

As the world came to grips with the coronavirus diseases (COVID-19), educational institutions and the society at large faced the challenge of figuring out how to continue with teaching and learning in such a context. Many countries, including South Africa made efforts to help contain and suppress the spread of COVID-19. In the South African…

Despite the widespread recognition of the significance of outdoor play in early childhood development, centers for early childhood education (ECE) face the challenge of striking a balance between active play activities and safety concerns. Thus, the visual attention of teachers is critical. Studies that compare the visual attention of novice and…

Although the concept of assessment as learning has important educational and practical implications, the utilisation and creation of contexts for assessment as learning in early childhood education are contemporary issues that need to be clarified. The overall goal of this work is to reconceptualise the role of the child portfolio as a tool for…
