The emergence of post-truth culture and the spread of dis/misinformation has received a great deal of attention from researchers. Existing approaches to digital information literacy highlight new skills and strategies needed in digital spaces. However, challenges remain, including disconnects between school curricula and out-of-school experiences,…

In this study, we discuss how the use of student personas can support pre-service teachers developing digital mathematics learning resources and improve mathematics teacher training programs. The use of modern technologies in schools requires that pre-service teachers prepare for new challenges, including the development of digital learning…

Notable within the rhetoric of recent global reform trends is the (re)positioning of teachers from peripheral to critical stakeholders in educational change processes. Responding to this imperative, programmes of Initial Teacher Education (ITE) are now frequently tasked with promoting teacher agency as a core dimension of teaching. Yet, much…

In this article, I examine how teachers can enact 'powerful knowledge' (PK)--a curriculum principle proposed by Michael Young--by linking it with the scholarship of teacher professionalism (TP). Despite the significance of teachers' role in curriculum enactment, effort to understand this topic has been insufficient. I first indicate that…

This paper examines the relation between the nature of updates in training curricula and graduates' skills and wages. Using vocational education and training (VET) curriculum texts as data, we apply natural language processing methods to identify the nature of changes in curriculum updates based on before-after comparisons of the skills the…

The lack of job-embedded professional learning for instructional leaders is detrimental to the efforts to transform teaching and learning to be student-centered.

Heavy content, high volume courses commonly create challenges for undergraduate students. Two such courses at our university are the introductory semesters of anatomy and physiology for first-year nursing students, taught by biology instructors. Despite the vast literature indicating the efficacy of using concept maps as a tool for learning, it is…

Integrating STEM-ESD enhances educational quality through interdisciplinary, hands-on learning experiences that foster deeper understanding and cultivate skills for real-world challenges. This paper presents a systematic review examining STEM-ESD implementation in Indonesia's educational context. Guided by four research questions, the study…

As educational paradigms continue to evolve in response to technological advancements, there is growing interest in interdisciplinary approaches that bridge the gap between STEM and the arts. One such emerging area is the integration of robotics into art education, which holds the potential to enrich learning experiences and foster a range of…

Addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has become of paramount importance for higher education institutions; however, a lack of a transparent, transferrable approach to identifying and quantifying the extent of SDG contributions hinders the ability to benchmark against past performance or other institutions. In this study, a…
