Teacher questioning impacts the level of student thinking that occurs during mathematical instruction. It is important to investigate how questioning is developed in secondary mathematics methods classes so that these environments can support the development effective questioning strategies. This article explores how two preservice teachers use…

A successful implementation of educational reform relies not only on teachers, but also systemic support for them, and crucial involvement of multiple stakeholders. This qualitative study explores the implementation of 'learner-centred' pedagogy (LCP) in Rwanda. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with three stakeholder groups comprising…

This thought piece explored the scholarship that expands and disrupts ideas of citizenship. In U.S. civic education classrooms, citizenship is viewed through the lens of a legal model that does not accurately reflect mixed-status classrooms in U.S.-Mexico border schools. We argue for a cathartic pedagogy that normalizes the discussion of…

This qualitative study used a cooperative inquiry design to explore novice teachers' adoption of critical views in their descriptions, perceptions, and uses of technology during student teaching and first-year teaching.

Background: The notion of carry-over value of certain physical activities has long been a preoccupation for physical education (PE) curriculum planners, one goal of PE being to prepare students for an active lifestyle in their adulthood. This goal is reinforced by the fact that over the last decade, there has been a considerable increase in…

This qualitative, embedded single case study provides a rich description exploring the evolution of preservice teachers' intention to use and actual use of technology-enabled learning (TEL) during student teaching. The study followed four middle-level education majors at a mid-size public teaching university in the southeastern United States…

In this component mixed methods study, we analyzed two STEM teacher candidates' constructivist practices during their alternative route to licensure summer teacher education program. The findings suggest that the STEM teacher candidates incorporated all six components of constructivism in their instruction, although each candidate focused on…

Background: For years, physical activity settings had portrayed a discourse that does not allow to add new and different elements in its practice. This discourse established a status quo that has affected in many ways the structure, the pedagogy and practice of physical activity settings. This is the case of out-school programs. Purpose: The…

Science preservice teachers (PSTs), as successes of the school system, often mimic what they experienced as a student when they start teaching, which can be problematic if they never experienced science taught in contextualized ways. Since not all school students report that they find school science relevant, it is important to provide…

This study aimed to examine the effects of a physical education teacher education programme on (a) preservice teachers' (PSTs') specialised content knowledge (SCK), and (b) the game-play development of their students, during a student-centred Sport Education-Step Game Approach (SE-SGA) unit. Three PSTs selected by convenience sampling (22-24 years…

Students' proof abilities were explored in the context of an inquiry-based learning (IBL) approach to teaching an introductory proofs course. IBL is a teaching method that puts the responsibility for proof on students and focuses on student discussion and exploration. Data collected from each of the 70 participants included a portfolio consisting…

Student behavior management remains a pivotal area of consideration for pre- and in-service secondary teachers and administrators alike. Hoping to gain deeper insight into the intersection between student behavior and school climate an action research methodology is employed to invite students into the debate as active school stakeholders. A case…

The connection between education and a country's economic and social development is unquestionable, and science and technology-related careers are of particular importance. Given the lack of vocations in these degrees, a number of mechanisms have been used to attract students, including science and technology conferences in secondary schools.…

This playbook provides ways in which Community Based Organizations (CBOs) can blur the lines between high school, postsecondary education, and the workforce. CBOs play a significant role to Raise the Bar for student success by developing an "education-to-workforce system" that focuses on Unlocking Career Success.
