Direct linkAndreas de Barros; Junita Henry; Jacqueline W. Mathenge – Comparative Education Review, 2024
There is limited evidence on what drives teachers to change their teaching practices. Using primary qualitative data from 78 Zambian education personnel from the school to the provincial level, we combine qualitative thematic analysis with an unsupervised machine-learning technique (topic modeling) to identify drivers of pedagogical shifts. We…

Sheffield, Jenna Pack; Moore, Devon – To Improve the Academy, 2023
In this article, the authors share the challenges we faced as we launched a center for teaching and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, and we describe how we used design thinking as a strategy for working through these challenges. The article presents an overview of the design thinking process, a case study of our application of the process,…

Cai, Jinfa; Hwang, Stephen – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2021
Problem posing, the process of formulating problems based on a given situation, is an essential practice in mathematics and other disciplines. Although this is acknowledged in policy documents, problem posing is neither substantively nor consistently included in the school mathematics curriculum. In this paper, we first comment on the state of…

Deepti Tagare – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2024
Background and Objective: Teacher assessment research suggests that teachers have good conceptual understanding of CT. However, to model CT-based problem-solving in their classrooms, teachers need to develop the ability to recognize when and how to apply CT skills. Does existing professional development (PD) equip teachers to know when and how to…

Alexis N. Prybutok; Ayinoluwa Abegunde; Kenzie Sanroman Gutierrez; Lauren Simitz; Chloe Archuleta; Jennifer Cole – Chemical Engineering Education, 2024
Engineering curriculum often fails to connect content and decisions to impacts on diverse, particularly marginalized, communities. Given that integration of social justice ideas into curriculum is currently uncommon among most faculty, we provide resources in the form of a workshop to help catalyze these efforts by teaching faculty how to…

Amos Oyelere Sunday; Friday Joseph Agbo; Jarkko Suhonen – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2025
The recent popularity of computational thinking (CT) and the desire to apply CT in our daily lives have prompted the need for a successful pedagogical technique for learning CT in K-12 education. The application of co-design pedagogical techniques has the potential to improve students' CT learning through knowledge sharing and the creation of…

De Wever, Bram; Hämäläinen, Raija; Nissinen, Kari; Mannonen, Joonas; Van Nieuwenhove, Lisse – Studies in Continuing Education, 2023
This study focuses on the problem solving skills in technology-rich environments of teachers. PIAAC (Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies) data on adults' (n = 11,294) competencies, is used to investigate how problem solving skills of teachers are associated with sociodemographic, work-related, and everyday-life related…

Leong, Yew Hoong – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
The phenomenon of teachers designing their own instructional materials is gaining more attention in research. Different aspects of this enterprise have been examined--its potential to reveal the complexity of teachers' instructional planning considerations, the design principles employed by teachers to realise instructional goals, among others. In…

Mairéad Hourigan; Aisling M. Leavy – Professional Development in Education, 2024
Changes in society demand constantly evolving education systems. Teachers' practice is crucial to the successful implementation of educational reforms. A major obstacle for practicing teachers in implementing reform mathematics is that they have not experienced it themselves as learners. Consequently, teachers require extended, practice-based…
