Context: As part of vocational education and training, learning factories are a new, hands-on learning setting in which students can create products with realistic digital manufacturing equipment while still in vocational school. Given their novelty, learning factories have not yet been studied with respect to whether special classroom management…

The purpose of this paper is to examine the complex relationships between educational policy and classroom practice. By employing a sociocultural perspective, we examine formulations inscribed in socio-material artifacts about what students should learn and how they should engage with knowledge. We explore how these formulations are mobilized in…

Teacher-facilitation of play is proposed as an effective method for supporting early literacy learning, however, educators remain uncertain how to balance child-autonomy in play while also directing play toward explicit academic objectives. In response, this study sought to understand how kindergarten teachers can successfully facilitate play to…

The COVID-19 pandemic process brought along compulsory changes in the field of education in our country as in the whole world.

This study was conducted to determine virtual…

The quality of teacher-student relationships (TSRs) has been shown to predict various academic and social, emotional, and behavioral outcomes for adolescent students and is also one of the most important aspects of teacher wellbeing. Therefore, measures of TSRs are essential for schools as they provide insight into the quality of these…

The analysis draws on a corpus of 18 h of video-recorded classroom interactions including 23 aided-speaking students using SGDs or picture-based communication…

Teacher responses to student behaviour directly influence numerous factors including student self-concept and later behaviour. Students with SEND tend to have a worse self-concept than their neurotypical peers, perhaps due to teacher expectations being lower and this informing the feedback given. However, the potential link between teacher…

Many prior studies have shown that teachers' child-centered beliefs are positively associated with children's literacy development, but the mechanism driving this association is not well understood. The aim of the study was to examine whether teachers' responsive teaching, a general factor of teacher-child interactions, served as a mediator…

Heterogeneous effects from interventions often remain hidden in between-group analyses, risking overgeneralized conclusions of treatment effects. In this exploratory study, we performed latent profile analysis to unveil differential treatment effects among children in The Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management Programme (IY TCMP). This…
