Valérie Batteau; Takeshi Miyakawa; Minbom Ryu – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
This study investigates the characteristics of Japanese primary school mathematics lessons that adopt a problem-solving approach. We argue that these characteristics are reflected in three key aspects: collective teaching and learning, the lesson as a "drama" (i.e., its structured flow), and the focus on mathematical knowledge. In this…

Emily Hatch – Journal of General Music Education, 2025
Performing music is one of the fundamental processes of music education. A musical performance includes not only singing or playing accurate notes and rhythms but also making interpretive decisions to convey music expressively. The author researched to find out the best strategies for developing expressive performance, and then created a lesson…

Daniel Schiller; Benjamin Zander – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2025
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…

Anita Valenta; Kirsti Rø; Sigrid Iversen Klock – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
This study introduces a framework for analyzing opportunities for mathematical reasoning (MR) in school mathematics, using MR-relevant claims and their derivation as the unit of analysis. We contend that this approach can effectively capture a broad range of opportunities for MR across various teaching situations. The framework, rooted in…

Martin A. Simon – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
Mathematical concepts have been a consensus goal for decades, yet there is little consensus on what is meant by the terms "mathematical concept" and "mathematical understanding." This article attempts to discuss these terms in a way that can be of practical use to teachers. Greater clarity on "mathematical concept"…

Melike Güzin Semercioglu; Hüseyin Kalkan – Discover Education, 2025
In recent years, studies by education researchers indicate that, despite various instructional methods to enhance the conceptual understanding of seasons, the reasons for the formation of seasons and the processes involved are still not fully grasped. This research aims to investigate the fundamental reasons for the difficulties in comprehending…

Jennifer Fortet – Journal of Education for Teaching: International Research and Pedagogy, 2025
Attending school does not necessarily lead to learning. In the classroom, quality of teaching is one of the most significant factors in determining pupil outcomes. Structured pedagogy programmes are designed to support teaching practice and have led to improved learning outcomes at scale across different contexts including in low-income countries.…

Nicholas Senior – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
Nicolas Senior shows how EMC3 's Launch-Explore-Summarise/Review model for mathematics lesson structuring sets the conditions to get the most out of both dialogic and direct instruction. He argues that this model will help teachers walk the balance between order and chaos.

Scott Cameron; Carmel Mesiti – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
In their daily work teachers are responsible for several complex tasks; might AI be harnessed to support teachers in the challenging work of planning lessons? In this paper we investigate the use of an AI tool, namely ChatGPT, to generate a lesson plan that may be of use to teachers in their planning. A carefully worded prompt, informed by…

Yi Zou; Xinyu Xue; Lizhen Jin; Xiao Huang; Yanbing Li – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Developing a deeper understanding of scientific concepts is one of the primary goals of science education. To improve students' conceptual understanding, it is necessary to explore the major characteristics of their learning process. Informed by previous work on conceptual understanding, this study focuses on the concept of evaporation, exploring…

Mary Jo Hoeft – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This mixed methods study explored how elementary teachers reported using a commercially published instructional unit to plan and deliver science instruction in their elementary classrooms. Of particular focus is what elements of the program teachers eliminated during planning and instruction, what outside materials teachers added to instruction,…

Helen Francis; Susan O. Cannon – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2024
Students at the elementary level should have opportunities to critique the world through mathematics and to see themselves as capable doers of mathematics. The lesson described in this article prompted students to consider how to use mathematics to organize an emergency evacuation. In this article, the authors show how small changes to a task…

Tanisha Nichole McClaren – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The current proposed study sought to extend the work conducted by Ostrosky et al. (2022). The research extension aimed to include and determine the effectiveness of EBI using three instructional models as group contingencies. The results compared the lecture instructional model and interdependent and individualized EBI research results of 10- and…

Dennis Matt Stevenson; Stewart Waters – Social Studies and the Young Learner, 2025
The film "Moana" creates a universe that is at once imaginative and familiar in that it is a fanciful depiction of real-world issues related to the environment. This sets the stage for an engaging series of activities with important content implications integrating environmental issues into elementary social studies. "Moana" is…
