While recent research has examined students' and teachers' understanding of models and modeling, few studies have focused on how teacher educators can support preservice elementary science teachers in envisioning enriched learning processes and outcomes for their students while engaging in modeling practices. Informed by reflective practices…

Many professors and lecturers strive to structure educational experiences that facilitate engaged learning in university classrooms. While some lectures may fail to achieve this goal due to monotone, routine speeches or uninteresting PowerPoint presentations, educational live action role-playing (edu-larp) is a strategy to facilitate interactive…

Science learned requires constructivist experiences so that students could learnt to discover and conclude. However, today's learned challenges were increasing along with the diversity of students and interests. The aimed of this researched was to increase the knowledge and practiced of prospective science teachers in didactic practiced through…

Act TEFL Methodology is one of the main courses designed to provide English pre-service teachers with several newest methodologies in teaching English at different levels and learning contexts. However, to achieve good quality of them, the English education department needs to evaluate, arrange and formulate the course. In the process of…

This article describes using aha moments as an assessment approach to gain a better understanding of student learning in relation to the six frames in the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) "Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education." Librarians asked students to share an aha moment following information…

Educators--and all adults in the school--are critical for fostering students' self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. Educators can teach and model SEL in lessons; for example, promoting critical thinking in a math lesson and encouraging students to engage with challenging content.…

This study examines the perceptions of first-year, mathematics graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) participating in a six-week summer course designed to deepen their knowledge of collegiate mathematics teaching practices before being assigned to instruct undergraduate students in the subsequent fall semester. Through hybrid deductive-inductive…

The Visible Learning (VL) approach to learning processes stems from Hattie's work based on synthesising meta-analyses regarding achievement in education. Although the model is used at many levels of instruction, its performance has been less studied in higher education, engineering education, and in the context of synchronous online learning in…

Understanding Nature of Science (NOS) is a requisite for improving scientific literacy, and as such, it is increasingly being included in science curricula worldwide. It is now therefore important that teachers understand NOS so that intended learning outcomes become visible in the classroom. Pre-service teachers also need an opportunity to…

Scholars have long questioned the impact of teacher education programmes. Persistent claims are that pre-service teachers have fixed ideas about pedagogy when they enter training and that they become enculturated once in the profession. Within physical education (PE), similar concerns have been raised with respect to ball games. Research suggests…

Purpose: The lesson study aims to examine college English teachers' growth in technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) and the improvement of students' learning outcomes in the context of MOOC-based and AI-powered flipped teaching and assessment of EFL writing (MAFTA). Design/methodology/approach: Three college EFL teachers and their…

College courses intended to help undergraduate students understand the ideas, benefits, and challenges of diversity are required at many U.S. universities. Intended learning outcomes for these courses are often set by the institution and interpreted by faculty, whose diversity-related background preparation and support for teaching vary. Without…

The present study explored the psychological states and attitudes, teaching-learning process, learner support and autonomy, technological challenges, and preferences of English as a foreign language students studying via remote learning throughout the COVID-19 period. Participants in this study included 186 students in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years…

Despite the benefits of teaching computational thinking (CT) and applying coding tools in schools, many teachers feel unprepared to use these technologies. Hence, we introduced CT concepts and coding tools to pre-service teachers (n=36; 17 in online class and 19 in in-person class), equipping them with digital competencies through activities with…

This article offers methodological insights and tools to those engaged in design-based research (DBR) seeking to advance equity-oriented learning and outcomes through co-design. We respond to recent scholarship that points to the inseparability between the assumptions we hold about society and those we hold about learning, and consider how such…
