This study investigated "learning teaching" in the Ann Arbor Languages Partnership (A2LP), a partnership between Ann Arbor Public School District and the School of Education at U of M to bring Spanish instruction to elementary classrooms. A2LP prepares undergraduates from different programs, called Apprentice Teachers (ATs), for Spanish…

The rotational synchronous teaching (RST) model has attracted attention as it can increase the teaching presence and connected classroom climate in multiple synchronous classroom learning environments. This paper presents an investigation of the effects of the relationships between college students' perception of teaching presence, connected…

In higher education, educators establish complex learning outcomes for students to achieve during their collegiate studies. These outcomes, given their complexity, necessitate an advanced approach to studying the teaching and learning process as it unfolds in real time. We brought together extant literature and our own research experience studying…

Data on classroom teacher-child interaction quality…

While learning involves the acquisition of skills and the development of repertoires, some educators harbor even more profound learning goals, seeking to enable learning that is transformative. Theorizing about transformative learning posits that it is precipitated by a disorienting dilemma. Disorienting dilemmas may be thought of as times when…
