Anita Stibbard; Christine Edwards-Groves; Christina Davidson – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
This article presents research focused on establishing ways that dialogic talk between teachers and students promotes mathematical reasoning in early years classrooms. Data are drawn from recorded and transcribed Year 1 mathematics lessons. Conversation analysis provides close examination of the talk-in-interaction practices of teachers and…

Juliene Madureira Ferreira; Kristen Bottema-Beutel – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Through a conversation analytic approach, we investigate the emergence of accounts provided by autistic children in small-group discussions. Nine Finnish children (7-10 years old) attending school with special support participated in a five-month-duration pedagogical practice purposefully designed to enhance children's participation in groups. We…

Knox, Jo; Kontorovich, Igor' – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2022
Supporting students of all levels to move beyond empirical arguments, which employ example based reasoning to endorse universal truths and are thus mathematically invalid, remains a challenging goal in mathematics education. Arguments that make use of generic examples are both mathematically valid and accessible for even young learners. However,…

Manyukhina, Yana – Education 3-13, 2022
Questions of children's agency have experienced a resurgence in education theory over the past years. Yet, there have been few attempts to examine children's agency in the context of a primary classroom from the viewpoint of the curriculum. This gap is being addressed by a longitudinal project exploring the impact of the National Curriculum for…

Liu, Shimeng; Takeuchi, Miwa Aoki – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
When language is defined narrowly in mathematics classrooms, racially and linguistically minoritized students in classrooms could be systematically positioned as "learners of deficiency." Recent scholarship calls for expanding the notion of language to emphasize embodied expression of mathematical ideas. Taking a critical perspective to…

Robert Walldén; Pia N. Larsson – Science Education, 2024
Although visual aids are widely considered a valuable source of scaffolding, the nature and active utilization of these aids in current science classrooms are not well understood. This qualitative study explores interaction in the teaching of concepts related to evolution, with a specific focus on a teacher's use of different visual support…

Barwell, Richard – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
I report the results of an analysis of an episode of elementary school second language mathematics classroom talk focused on the classification of geometric forms, drawing on a dialogic, sources of meaning perspective. The episode was selected because participants make use of a variety of features of language, including vocabulary, gestures and…

Kevin W. H. Tai; Chiu-Yin Wong – Applied Linguistics, 2023
Despite the extensive research on translanguaging in bi/multilingual classrooms, research on the context of first language (L1) classrooms remains scarce. This study fills the research gap by examining how a translanguaging space was created in an L1 classroom to prepare students to inhabit a world with different linguistic and cultural practices.…

Zakaria, Zarifa; Vandenberg, Jessica; Tsan, Jennifer; Boulden, Danielle Cadieux; Lynch, Collin F.; Boyer, Kristy Elizabeth; Wiebe, Eric N. – Computer Science Education, 2022
Background and Context: Researchers and practitioners have begun to incorporate collaboration in programming because of its reported instructional and professional benefits. However, younger students need guidance on how to collaborate in environments that require substantial interpersonal interaction and negotiation. Previous research indicates…

Sharma, Shweta – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
The interactional role of language use in the mathematics classroom is explored in the last few decades. This paper adds to the knowledge base by exploring different ways of talking that children and their teacher use in a New Zealand primary geometry English-medium classroom. Bakhtin's concept of speech genres is used for an analysing transcript…

Andy Ding-Xuan Ng; Aloysius Ong; Alwyn Vwen Yen Lee; Chew Lee Teo – Pedagogies: An International Journal, 2024
Research and development of Learning Analytics (LA) have created new ways to support students' learning. However, our understanding of teachers' roles when implementing LA in classroom practices remains nascent. This study investigates how teachers can implement LA to support students' agency in directing their own inquiry, when engaging in a…

Oh, Kicheol; Kang, Nam-Hwa – Asia-Pacific Science Education, 2019
Opportunities for students to develop problems for scientific investigation have rarely been provided in South Korean science classrooms. The purpose of this study was to examine the nature of elementary students' participation in problem finding in science learning. Specifically, we examined the characteristics of student participation in…

Ng, Oi-Lam; Ni, Yujing; Shi, Lian; Chen, Gaowei; Cui, Zhihao – Journal of Education for Teaching: International Research and Pedagogy, 2021
This paper documents the process and outcome of the development and validation of a coding scheme to analyse mathematics classroom discourse in the context of Hong Kong primary schools. The objective of this coding scheme was to systematically analyse teacher discourse behaviours before and after an intervention programme; the programme aimed to…
