Materials development is increasingly recognized as a valuable venue for narrowing the research-practice gap. This qualitative case study explores how four middle school teachers and three university researchers collaborated in a community of practice (CoP) to write textbooks by highlighting the interplay between their collaborative relationships…

This study aims to determine the process of creating the psychoeducational module for preventing child marriage for high school girls in Wajo Regency, Indonesia and to find out the product specification aspects of the psychoeducational module for preventing child marriage for high school girls in terms of the accuracy, feasibility and usefulness…

This study aims to develop context-based teaching materials and examine their effects on students' scientific literacy skills. This study adopted the developmental research model by Borg & Gall (1983), which was modified into four stages: needs analysis, model development, model validation and implementation. Experts validated the draft of the…

While researchers and practitioners have long known that differentiating formative feedback (FF) is a requisite for creating more equitable learning opportunities for students, less is known about how teachers plan for, enact, and reflect on differentiated FF dialogues with students individually, in small groups, or as a whole class--a lens on…

Digital gameplay and digital multimodal composition (DMC) are promising multimodal literacy practices. Nevertheless, research on their incorporation in literacy classrooms to foster students' multimodal literacy skills is lacking. This qualitative case study explored how two groups of Chinese adolescents used multimodal literacy in digital…

Informal statistical reasoning, a fundamental aspect of statistical reasoning, involves students' logical processing of random data to extract meaningful insights. Enhancing this skill is crucial for helping students interpret and address statistical problems within their cultural and contextual frameworks. Activity-centered learning, particularly…

The study aims to develop teaching materials in the form of LKPD on ecology and biodiversity by using valid and practical trigger questions and to determine their effectiveness in increasing student motivation and learning outcomes. This research is a development research that uses the ADDIE development model which consists of five stages, namely:…

This study was conducted to explore the relationship between teachers' self-efficacy belief levels and their self-efficacy in developing digital materials. A 26-item self-efficacy scale for creating digital materials and a 27-item teacher self-efficacy beliefs scale were administered to 266 secondary school teachers during the 2022-2023 academic…

Teachers often rely on curricular materials as support for implementing reform-based science practices and as educative materials to continue developing ways in which they teach and approach science. Therefore, it is important to understand how teachers develop and use curricular materials and how they learn from their experiences. However, we…

In 2017 Purdue evGrand Prix hired a K-12 Indiana public educator (the author) to write instructional material that could be implemented into participating teams' high school science and engineering classrooms. The goal was to create science-based integrated STEM learning experiences that complement the construction and racing of a 48-volt electric…

Mathematics learning using high-order thinking skills is crucial for students. High-order thinking skills can be developed through learning materials with contexts relevant to the student's environment. This research aims to: produce maritime context mathematics teaching materials for higher-order thinking in Junior High Schools that are valid,…

To help alleviate the alarming performance of students in Mathematics, teachers are encouraged to devise different strategies to address the challenges of students in dealing with mathematics. This may include crafting learning materials such as Self-Directing Learning material. This kind of learning material is crucial in developing students'…

This study examines, with focus on statistical education, how intersectionality appears in didactic tasks for Brazilian school education, developed by IBGEeduca, an educational platform organized by IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics). In this study, intersectionality was used as an analytical tool to help understand and explain…

This article is drawn from a 2022 National Art Education Association Convention panel sponsored by the Professional Learning Through Research working group, showcasing various collaborative research projects across multiple divisions in art education (Bain & Vanderlip Taylor, 2022). Collaborative research practices are evolving, moving away…

Educators encounter challenges in performing materials adaptation stemming from time limitations, institutional responsibilities, administrative demands, and a dearth of formal training in materials development resulting in improper adaptation and ineffective learning activities. This research investigated the process of adapting materials as a…
