To be successful in algebra, students need access to high-quality instruction that includes opportunities to develop their algebraic understanding. Yet research on algebra teaching suggests that instruction remains procedurally focused, indicating that teachers may need additional support to provide students such opportunities. One possible lever…

Background: Content of physical education, such as games, fitness or dance as well as their adequate didactical (re-)presentation for learning purposes are central topics of discussion in sports pedagogy. The concrete processes that constitute the content of PE lessons in situ tend to remain unconsidered in the discussion. Thus, there is a…

Fish pekasam is a traditional fish fermentation product that can be used in biotechnology learning through the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model. However, the use of PjBL by teachers remains low due to difficulties in developing learning instruments. This study aimet to develop PjBL learning instruments for making fish pekasam, reflecting local…

This article introduces eight instructional modules designed to create aha moments for students and help them gain clear insights on how geotechnical engineering principles are applied in the real world. Each module consists of (1) an interactive class demonstration using a physical model, (2) a whiteboard-style animation that provides the…

In this paper, we introduce a new interpretive framework, which we call Bodymarking, to aid in describing and interpreting activity (e.g., individuals' gestures, gaze, and interaction with materials in the environment) in the classroom. We apply the framework to video recordings of mathematics lessons to explain how it can be used and offer some…

This study examined how preservice teachers (PSTs) develop adaptive competence in teaching peers in an introductory physical education pedagogy course underpinned by a pedagogical cycle designed to promote adaptive teaching competence. Two guiding research questions were: (a) what was the total number of adaptations that PSTs made in their peer…

Since 2020, teaching has gone through substantive transformation. Teacher educators have been compelled to reevaluate their instructional strategies and the use of technology to deliver effective training for pre-service teachers. The year 2020 escalated the use of teaching strategies that relied on technology as a crucial tool in all teaching…

Video self-analysis is a useful tool for teacher education, and while teacher educators often espouse the benefits of its use, the perspectives of preservice teachers who have used this tool have rarely been taken into consideration. Their perspectives can help teacher educators understand what makes video self-analysis tasks more meaningful,…

The purpose of this study is to investigate primary school teachers' perceptions regarding the frequency of using educational platforms, digital applications, and videos for teaching science and geography. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire survey in which 107 primary school teachers voluntarily participated. The analysis…

This paper studies the knowledge developed by a group of sixty-two pre-service primary teachers during a training session on the definition of a polygon and the mathematical practice of defining. We explore the knowledge developed by pre-service teachers when they carry out a series of training tasks oriented around the practice of defining with…

Digital curricula can constrain teachers with ready-made instructional materials. The authors used Mathematics Teaching Practices (MTPs) to modify a digital curriculum to engage students in more thoughtful and meaningful lessons. In this article, the authors visit one of their third-grade classrooms, in which they used the prescriptive digital…

The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that shape pre-service teachers' (PSTs) online teaching practices within the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework. Ten science PSTs and nine mathematics PSTs who experienced the practical part face-to-face and the theoretical part online of the Teaching Practice 2 course…

Within a single internet search, thousands of results occur when looking for a lesson or mathematics activity. However, the results are not all of good quality. In this article, the authors present a mathematics lesson planning protocol (MLP[superscript 2]) to help process the search results and offer experiences of teachers using the protocol.…

Science teachers have been urged to use emerging technologies, such as robots, in ways that empower K-12 students as active participants responsible for their learning and knowledge development within the scientific domain. And yet, little is known about whether the use of robots effectively supports students' epistemic agency in science learning.…

The present study aims to examine prospective history teachers' process of using digital games to design history lessons and delivering the designed lessons in virtual classrooms. The study employed a design-based research model and was conducted with 31 participants selected based on the criterion sampling method. Data were collected through…
