Melanie W. Jensen; Peter J. Rich – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2025
In the teaching of math-fact automaticity, most classroom teachers are unaware of research-based practices such as the use of a controlled response time, the scaffolded teaching of individual math facts, the limiting of exposure to new math facts, the separation of math facts with common operands, and even the definition of automaticity. As a…

Maria Martínez-Chico; Maria Rut Jiménez-Liso; Maria Evagorou – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2020
In this paper, we present the design of a teacher training sequence, emphasizing supporting pre-service teachers to reflect on their knowledge, skills, and emotions experienced when engaging in scientific practices. We consider such reflections being crucial in initial teacher training because they can make pre-service teachers aware of the…

Deborah Tatar; Jeremy Roschelle; Stephen Hegedus – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2014
Historically, what people can learn is co-determined by the "representational infrastructure" for knowledge building. When Latin was the required medium of knowledge building, few could engage in scholarly activities; without the change to the vernacular, nearly universal access to higher education would not be possible. The highly…
