Research studies focusing on schools and teachers' capabilities to teach and develop students' health literacy (HL) are few. Of the research that currently exists, teachers face difficulties when teaching health education to enhance students' critical HL levels, with only one study examining preservice teachers (PSTs). The aim of this study is to…

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore how contingent graphic design faculty in the US describe and interpret knowledge applications and real-world experiences from their accumulated conceptual repertoire in the execution of the classroom environment. Data was collected from 12 one-on-one semi-structured interviews and 16…

Introduction: There remains some consensus that pre-service teacher education should be centered on the development of teachers' content knowledge, as it is considered to be essential for quality teaching and learning. The development of more effective forms of pedagogical content knowledge requires pre-service physical education teachers to…

The development of corpus-based language pedagogy (CBLP) is a complex and intriguing process that pertains to how corpus technology is directly applied to classroom teaching. Using a case study approach, this study investigated how two experienced university English teachers integrated corpus technology in authentic classroom teaching. Data…

Throughout history, artificial intelligence (AI) has impacted various aspects of human life and professional industries, including the field of education, by mimicking human behaviors and tasks to increase productivity and efficiency (Grudin et al., 2023; Haenlein & Kaplan, 2019). Generative AI is a form of AI using deep learning to quickly…

Reflective practice (RP) has been widely promoted in many second language teacher education programs to foster pre-service teachers' pedagogical competence. However, the effectiveness of RP has often been questioned and challenged due to its lack of authenticity in practice. This Viewpoint paper focuses on the issue of authenticity of RP and how…

In the context of the critical need to support children's early language development, teacher knowledge may enhance children's opportunities to build linguistic skills. In this study we explored how early childhood teachers' (n = 86) pedagogical content knowledge for language and vocabulary, and their book-reading implementation across the school…

It is essential for educators to be able to navigate educational standards and incorporate social- emotional learning (SEL) frameworks which align with teaching practices that support students' education. Teachers may possess knowledge of SEL components, but there is currently a lack of standards, especially at the upper grade levels, in…

Pre-service teachers are mostly trained with traditional methods in their institutions and as a result, they do not become competent in technology integration in education. To successfully integrate technology in education, it is necessary for teachers to have knowledge of the content and the pedagogical techniques to teach this content with…

This study examines the use of a virtual internship (an epistemic game) for developing preservice teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). TPACK aims to capture the essential qualities of teacher knowledge that are needed for integrating technology into teaching. Virtual internships are computer-based professional practicum…

Blended learning has been touted to have substantial benefits for both teachers and learners. Enacting blended instruction with students provides data and other information sources to support teacher reflection. However, reflective accounts from practicing teachers in these blended environments are missing from research literature. With these…
