Low target prevalence affects perceptual decisions on both simple and complex stimuli. Without prior knowledge of how often targets may appear, trial-by-trial accuracy feedback modulates the effects of low prevalence partially by providing observers with information about the target base rate. Using simple colored dots, Lyu (PBR 28:1906-1914,…

This qualitative case study explores the effect of video-supported expertise-based training (XBT) on pre-service teachers' classroom management noticing. Nine volunteer senior pre-service teachers were recruited through maximum variation sampling at an internationally recognised university in Northern Cyprus. Data were collected through…

The aim of teaching observations and post observation feedback in higher education is to support teachers to reflect on and improve their teaching. Yet, our understanding of tutors' (observers') and teachers' (observees') capacities for capitalising on these feedback opportunities is limited and there is little empirically derived advice for…

Writing a synthesis text involves interacting reading and writing processes, serving the comprehension of source information, and its integration into a reader-friendly and accurate synthesis text. Mastering these processes requires insight into process' orchestrations. A way of achieving this is via process feedback in which students compare…

Feedback plays an indispensable role in pre-service teachers' microteaching practice. It provides essential information about their microteaching performance, which is of great significance in their reflection and improvement. As AI and teaching analytics advance, feedback is no longer exclusively human-generated. AI technologies are increasingly…

Instructors often provide feedback to their class in multiple ways. One way is through their follow-up behaviors, which are the specific strategies instructors implement after active learning activities. These behaviors could play an important role in student learning as students receive feedback from the instructor. However, there is little…

This article presents an action research project conducted in a Swedish compulsory school. In the project the participants explored ways of identifying actions to improve in the practices of a professional learning community in order to develop teaching. This is important for participants in such communities, since the outcome of developed…

The study examined the influence of school heads' clinical supervision practices on teachers' professional competency development in public secondary schools in Tanzania. It was a mixed-methods research approach that involved Tanzanian school heads and teachers. Survey data from 94 participants were quantitatively analysed, and narrative data from…

Addressing and managing the disruptive behavior of students is a major classroom management concern for teachers. These concerns become even more important when, in addition to normal classroom disruptions, teachers must also address the behaviors of students' at risk for emotional and behavioral difficulties. Although ample bodies of…

There is a need to investigate the diagnostic utility of autism diagnostic questionnaires in school-age children, who are increasingly being referred for autism assessment. Aside from the standardization sample, little research has been conducted on the Autism Spectrum Rating Scales, particularly regarding teacher reports. This study investigated…

The purpose of this study was to investigate pre-service teachers' perceptions of traditional observations and feedback compared with virtual observations and feedback during practicum placements. Specifically, researchers were interested in exploring methods for providing quality practicum experience feedback. A mixed-methods research design…

Principals play an essential role in ensuring student success and achievement. This is achieved through an effective principal's vital role in optimizing teacher impact over an entire campus because quality teachers significantly impact student achievement. This study aimed to gain insights that can contribute to a generalized knowledge of how…

This research examines the consequences of a mandatory assessment for pre-service teachers in Australia that is completed during their final teaching placement. The Teaching Performance Assessment (TPA) is an analysis of practice that incorporates video of teaching episodes, observation feedback, and analysis of pupils' work samples.…

This study investigates the tensions that arise in classroom observations in Türkiye's centralised education system and examines the leadership strategies employed by principals to navigate these tensions. Through in-depth interviews, this case study explores the experiences of 10 school principals and 10 teachers from different public schools.…

Literacy coaching has shown positive effects on teachers' instruction and on students' literacy growth, but research has demonstrated wide variation in literacy coaches' practice. However, previous research has not addressed the sensemaking processes that might underlie variation in coaching practice. Using interviews with seven literacy coaches,…
