The measurement instruments are part of assessment the teacher uses in assessing the learner's learning process and outcomes. So, it is very necessary to prepare teacher students for their future as teachers. The objectives of this research were 1) to develop guidelines on construction of mathematical skill and process instruments, 2) to develop…

Sustainable living is critical for the next generation, and ESD competencies are required to handle global concerns. Education of Sustainable Development (ESD) helps to overcome this gap, however, technological integration is restricted and lacking in a complete framework. To overcome these problems, this study designed a website as an interactive…

This paper reports on the lessons learnt from the COVID-19-induced emergency remote (online) teaching and learning of a one-year teacher education course. The final-year course, within a four-year Bachelor of Education programme, aimed at developing pre-service teachers' knowledge of the nature and process of learning and how to guide and support…

The current study was conducted with the goal of helping to address the research gap of improving preservice teachers' pedagogical knowledge about probability by investigating how preservice teachers explored concepts of probability during aleatoric music composition, as well as their contemplation process during follow-up reflections focused on…

Planning a lesson remains a challenging task for the teachers. The transition from a student into a pre-service teacher and turn out into an effective teacher is a challenging task in the teaching field. We all know the nexus between the significant roles of a lesson plan in an effective teaching-learning process. This study aims to analyze the…

Digitalisation and inclusion can be understood as transversal topics in pre- and in-service teachers' professional development. Both topics have attracted considerable research activity. However, questions of digital-inclusive transformation have only rarely been discussed within the field of foreign language teaching. Researchers in the field…

Pre-service teachers (n = 1572) from five faculties of education in Ontario, Canada were surveyed at the beginning of their programme about their attitudes and self-efficacy beliefs regarding inclusive practices. These responses were compared to responses from Ontario in-service teachers (n = 739) prior to their district-wide shift from a model of…

Prospective elementary school teachers (PSTs) often do not perceive mathematics activities as fun or engaging and perceive the mathematics tasks in their university content courses as inauthentic and irrelevant. Both these points were addressed by connecting the university classroom tasks to the K-5 environment via a Family Math Night (FMN).…

There is a broad consensus that beginning teachers of mathematics need a strong foundation in mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT), defined as the mathematical knowledge required to recognize, understand, and respond to the mathematical work of teaching one must engage in. One recurrent challenge in teacher education is how to provide support…

MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) were first introduced to the wider public in 2008, with the first language MOOCs appearing in 2012. Following the initial hype, a number of problems with the way MOOCs had been conceived and implemented have emerged from research and practical experiences. In this article we revisit some of the arguments for and…

Twelve leading Social Foundations of Education (SFE) scholars describe their professional work in the field. The research question within this oral history study is: In what ways do SFE scholars express the importance of the Liberal Arts (LA) framework for the community of educational stakeholders in a democracy? The respondents explain the degree…

Purpose: This paper aims to provide a holistic approach to assessing student teachers' competence development in education for sustainable development (ESD). This is to provide evidence on which teaching and learning formats help to foster which aspects of ESD-specific professional action competence in teachers. The studied competencies consist of…

The outbreak of the pandemic caught educators unprepared for non-traditional ways of learning and teaching. Since remote teaching aggravated already existing challenges of the classroom, teachers and teacher educators began looking for alternative professional development (PD) arrangements that could address teaching-related needs. Peer coaching…

This study aims to determine the predictive factors for effective teaching in blended learning contexts. A Blended Learning Evaluation Scale was devised. The participants were 145 first-year students studying for education degrees using a blended learning model. An exploratory factorial analysis revealed five factors for establishing a good model…

This research aims to explore the development and use of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) in pre-service secondary mathematics teachers. For this multiple case study, evidence of TPACK in three pre-service secondary mathematics teachers was collected during a 15-week semester, during which the pre-service teachers were enrolled…
