Online educators are always on the search for another teaching strategy to improve that number one goal of all online educators: to engage the students. Once this is accomplished assignments of better quality appear, assignments are submitted--and on time, students are more inclined to pursue and peruse all components of the course, and they will…

This book offers a concise and comprehensive review of theories and practical guidelines on how to adopt a task-based approach to second language (L2) reading instruction. The various chapters within and across the book bridge the boundaries between L2 reading research and classroom practices. Each chapter provides concrete teaching suggestions…

We designed this project to advance inclusive and equitable teaching by leveraging data to motivate, inform, and tailor teaching development initiatives to the varied needs and resources of academic departments. We developed an innovative framework and mixed methods research design to systematically assess inclusive and equitable teaching at the…

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning have become increasingly important in modern society and are poised to play an increasingly prominent role in education. This paper seeks to provide a theoretical framework for interrogating the integration of AI in education spaces. The paper argues that the eventual response of educators to…

The purpose of this study is to conceptually explore and investigate the attributes of varying monologic discourses in the classroom, in order to develop a more nuanced understanding of monologicality. Data for this study comprised transcripts of lessons conducted by a teacher from a larger national study on Year 7 classroom practices. Constant…

Proof validation plays a significant role in students' understanding and learning of mathematical proofs. Recent studies have shown that university students were lacking skills in proof validation and were challenged by the implementation of the appropriate acceptance criteria when validating proofs. Drawing on Habermas' construct and rational…

Teaching equitable clinical practice is of critical importance, yet how best to do so remains unknown. Educators utilize implementation science frameworks to disseminate clinical evidence-based practices (EBP). The Health Equity Implementation Framework (HEIF) is one of these frameworks, and it delineates how health equity may be concomitantly…

Pearson's Learning Foundations describe the optimal conditions for learning and reflect the learner experience Pearson hopes their products will create. Pearson does this by incorporating the Learning Design Principles. Each of the Learning Design Principles goes into detail about a key principle, supporting product design and marketing by…

Interdisciplinary teaching is vital for equipping students to address complex public health challenges. This study explores teachers' reflections on interdisciplinary teaching in Singapore's undergraduate public health programmes, examining facilitators and barriers to its implementation. Using surveys and in-depth interviews, we gathered diverse…

Introduction: Recent advancements in generative AI (GAI) platforms appear to mark an abrupt shift in higher education. Statement of the Problem: Instructors have a responsibility to teach students to use GAI, which is a promising tool for promoting personalized, student-centered, process-focused learning environments. Literature Review: Drawing on…

Kidding remarks in Thai social contexts are often perceived as trivial. However, frequent occurrences may lead to verbal bullying, particularly when the communicator does not consider the feelings of others. This study aims to develop a process framework to enhance awareness of creative communication and empathy in Thai social contexts.…

This qualitative research study uses middle-grades students' numerical reasoning to model their symbolic representations of the relationship between two multiplicatively related unknowns on an algebra task. Students in sixth grade through ninth grade participated in clinical interviews that assessed their numerical reasoning using the Number…

This study introduces a framework for analyzing opportunities for mathematical reasoning (MR) in school mathematics, using MR-relevant claims and their derivation as the unit of analysis. We contend that this approach can effectively capture a broad range of opportunities for MR across various teaching situations. The framework, rooted in…

Mathematical writing in school is difficult to teach. Reasons include that it is a domain in which there are rules for some parts of the writing like for example mathematical notation while others must be negotiated locally in the classroom. Writing is also seldom separated from the process of solving mathematical problems, creating a situation…

Definitions and understandings of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), scholarly teaching, and research are multiple and often conflicting. Reflecting on Boyer's intention for academic work to be recognised as overlapping and interconnected, in this paper we examine some of the commonly assumed models of Boyer's scholarship of teaching…
