Xinyan Lu; Xudong Zheng – Educational Technology & Society, 2025
The adoption of the maker-centered method is gaining popularity in K-12 school curricula. However, a unified consensus on its effectiveness in enhancing K-12 students' learning outcomes remains elusive. Therefore, the purpose of this meta-analysis was to synthesize the findings on the overall effects of the maker-centered learning method on K-12…

Stacy M. Hayden; Kelly Kearney; E. Jean Gubbins – Journal of Advanced Academics, 2024
This article analyzes teachers' perceptions and experiences using an educative curriculum designed to promote high levels of mathematical discourse. After participating in 2 days of professional learning, grade 3 teachers implemented a predifferentiated and enriched mathematics unit in their classroom. The curriculum was designed to be educative,…

Yaling Li – International Education Studies, 2024
This study used a design experiment that instructs children on how to approach each letter to investigate typography design methodologies and manual techniques. Since children are still in the early stages of learning and the content they are exposed to is of great significance, the topic of children's education is always one that the entire…

Samantha Harris – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The purpose of this multiple-case study with a cross-case analysis was to determine how seven third-grade teachers conceptualized comprehension and its instruction and how those knowledge and beliefs about comprehension instruction were leveraged while planning lessons. Teachers were asked to design two comprehension lesson plans and answer…

Dawn Woods; Wesam Salem – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
Instructional routines, like "Number Talks" and "Notice and Wonder," engage students in doing and then talking about their mathematical thinking. Number Talk routines are short mathematical discussions where students mentally solve and share the strategies they used to make sense of the problem. In comparison, the Notice and…

Alexandra M. Ryken; Lesly Wade-Woolley; S. Hélène Deacon – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
There is growing theoretical and empirical consensus for a role of awareness of suprasegmental phonology, also known as prosody, or the rhythmic elements of speech, in reading comprehension. Here we explore a potential mechanism by which this relation functions: awareness of how punctuation reflects prosody, for instance appreciating that a period…

Jane Hubbard; Hannah Marino – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
For students to develop adequate conceptual understanding about fractions, they require experiences that afford them opportunities to think flexibly about multiple interpretations of fractions. This article presents a sequence of lessons designed to offer such experiences for students in Years 3 and Year 4. The lessons adopt a challenging tasks…

Amanda Waldron; Steve Rhine – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
Digital curricula can constrain teachers with ready-made instructional materials. The authors used Mathematics Teaching Practices (MTPs) to modify a digital curriculum to engage students in more thoughtful and meaningful lessons. In this article, the authors visit one of their third-grade classrooms, in which they used the prescriptive digital…

Bleier, Mitch – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2023
Simplified, reductionist approaches to curriculum design and delivery are pervasive in science education. In ecological curricula--particularly in, but not limited to K-12--biomes, ecosystems, habitats, and other units of study are simplified and presented as static, easily identified and described entities. Characteristics, components, and…

Peta J. White; Russell Tytler; Shefali Sharma-Wallis – Teaching Science, 2023
Inquiry skills are universally recognised as being integral to a contemporary science education where students need to understand the nature of scientific practices as well as concepts. Although inquiry learning is a common practice among primary educators, the development and assessment of inquiry skills is far less practised. There is a need for…

José Luis Cortina – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
We discuss the importance of bringing teaching to the forefront of instructional design. We do so by describing the process of developing an instructional sequence for early number, using design research. The instructional sequence was developed with the specific aim of supporting teaching, conceived as a complex and demanding job, not reducible…
