Shivani Nag – Contemporary Education Dialogue, 2024
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 begins at the very outset by acknowledging education as the fundamental tool for achieving human potential and for achieving economic and social mobility, justice, equality and inclusion. It further recognises the need for education itself to be 'inclusive and equitable' for it to be able to become such a…

Gregorios Daniel Schevig Brogstad – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2025
Developmental Education in Mathematics (DEM) according to Zankov's model, or "Russian mathematics", has been in use in Norway since 2009 in an increasing number of schools (about 100 elementary schools in 2024). There has been relatively little research into the implementation of this teaching method in a Norwegian context. In this…

Hannah Lutzenberger; Marisa Casillas; Paula Fikkert; Onno Crasborn; Connie de Vos – Language Learning and Development, 2024
The lack of diversity in the language sciences has increasingly been criticized as it holds the potential for producing flawed theories. Research on (i) geographically diverse language communities and (ii) on sign languages is necessary to corroborate, sharpen, and extend existing theories. This study contributes a case study of adapting a…

Lea Eldstål-Ahrens; Malin Nilsen; Niklas Pramling – Classroom Discourse, 2024
In this study, we analyse a 9-year-old child's argumentative participation in a group discussion, from a microgenetic development angle. Specifically, we follow one child through the discussion and analyse the development process, defined as changed participation and as interactionally contingent upon the other participants and the teacher. The…

Simon Marginson – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2025
Anglophone societies in which the sovereign individual is primary vis and vis social relations, and policy focuses on economic competition and consumption in education, find it hard to grasp non-pecuniary outcomes in higher education. These include the self-formation of students as persons and collective goods like knowledge, technological…

Wong, Wai Yee Amy; Thistlethwaite, Jill; Moni, Karen; Roberts, Chris – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2023
Examiners' judgements play a critical role in competency-based assessments such as objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs). The standardised nature of OSCEs and their alignment with regulatory accountability assure their wide use as high-stakes assessment in medical education. Research into examiner behaviours has predominantly explored…

Sylvia Pantaleo – Journal of Early Childhood Literacy, 2025
During a 10-week classroom-based study in a school in western Canada, 17 Kindergarten children had multiple opportunities to learn about how elements of visual art, design and layout in picturebook artwork are fundamental to meaning-making when transacting with this format of literature. Student application of learning about the concepts under…

Duygu Özdemir; Mine Isiksal Bostan – Journal of Advanced Academics, 2025
Mathematically gifted students need differentiated tasks in mixed-ability classrooms, and studies evaluating the use of these tasks in classrooms are of crucial importance. Thus, the present study examines how the use of differentiated tasks nurtures mathematically gifted students from the perspectives of mathematics teachers and their gifted…

Peter Sawchuk – Australian Journal of Adult Learning, 2023
As life course research has long recognized, work and careers are what Pearlin (1988; p.259) describes as "durable arrangements" that serve to "organize experience over time." However, understanding (a) the specific impacts of the alienations and contradictions of work and society under capitalism as well as (b) the analytic…

Malihe YarAhmadi; Hossein Kargar Behbahani – Language Testing in Asia, 2025
Traditional approaches to language assessment have been criticized for their inadequacy in taking account of language learners' potential for development. To obviate this pitfall in traditional assessment, language teachers and researchers have been paying increasing attention to dynamic assessment (DA), which is rooted in Vygotsky's (1978)…

Dery Tria Agustin; Thi Kim Anh Dang; Janet Scull – Journal of Language, Identity, and Education, 2025
Teachers' English language ideologies play a crucial role in English language education reforms. It is important to understand how their ideologies evolve outside and inside the classroom. This paper explores how micro-level factors shape teachers' English-only ideology, encompassing both their beliefs and their associated pedagogical practices.…

Dmitri Leontjev; Mark deBoer – Language Teaching Research, 2025
Sociocultural theory (SCT) is a powerful basis for exploring and guiding L2 (second/foreign language) learner development. For the most part, however, the focus of classroom SCT-L2 has been on single activities, for example, teacher mediation of learners' writing process or peer scaffolding. In this paper, we expand on these studies, building on…

Murphy, Carol; Thomas, Damon; Muir, Tracey – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
In this study, we aim to investigate the role of language in small group peer collaboration. Based on the notion of symmetrical scaffolding, we draw on theories of dialogic space and functional linguistics to analyse a transcript of three six-year-old students as they explore a shared understanding of 'two more than'. Using Martin and White's…

Wei Li – Asian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education, 2025
The field of second language acquisition (SLA) research had long been governed by a paradigm that prioritized cognition over emotion. Recently, increased attention has been drawn to the role of "perezhivanie" in language development as Vygotsky's sociocultural theory (SCT) brought together emotion and cognition, thereby offering an…
