O'Brien, Rita Marie – ProQuest LLC, 2017
The U.S. is no longer one of the world leaders in mathematics. In the future, more graduates will be needed to fill more than a million mathematics-intensive positions. However, the number of post-secondary learners graduating with mathematics-intensive degrees has been declining since 1984. Therefore, there will not be enough graduates to fill…

Lack of expertise of general physical educators relative to teaching students with disabilities in inclusive general physical education (GPE) has been identified as a major challenge affecting the implementation of inclusion in the United States (Block & Obrusnikova, 2007). Several studies indicated that insufficient inclusion training (Hodge,…

Using critical reflectivity to develop teachers' understandings of culturally…

Drill, Karen; Miller, Shazia; Behrstock-Sherratt, Ellen – Brock Education: A Journal of Educational Research and Practice, 2013
Based on two studies conducted in the Chicago metropolitan area in 2009 and 2010, we found that teachers do, in fact, use research, although they tend to seek it out under very specific conditions and circumstances. Namely, teachers tend to look to research in response to an immediate, pressing concern such as how to best teach fractions to…

Nicolaidou, Iolie; Kyza, Eleni A.; Terzian, Frederiki; Hadjichambis, Andreas; Kafouris, Dimitris – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2011
Assessing the credibility of evidence in complex, socio-scientific problems is of paramount importance. However, there is little discussion in the science education literature on this topic and on how students can be supported in developing such skills. In this article, we describe an instructional design framework, which we call the Credibility…

Conrad, Dianne – Quarterly Review of Distance Education, 2008
It is important for academic credibility that the process of prior learning assessment and recognition (PLAR) keeps learning and knowledge as its foundational tenets. Doing so ensures PLAR's recognition as a fertile ground for learners' cognitive and personal growth. In many postsecondary venues, PLAR is often misunderstood and confused with…

Calkins, Susanna; Kelley, Matthew R. – College Teaching, 2007
Although most college faculty expect their students to analyze Internet and scholarly sources in a critical and responsible manner, recent research suggests that many undergraduates are unable to discriminate between credible and noncredible sources, in part because they lack the proper training and relevant experiences. The authors describe two…
