The use of online video lectures in universities, primarily for content delivery and learning, is on the rise. Instructors' ability to recognize and understand student learning experiences with online video lectures, identify particularly difficult or disengaging content and thereby assess overall lecture quality can inform their instructional…

Over the past twenty-five years, or so, considerable advances have been made in understanding how learning occurs in the brain, though much of this research is still to make its way into education. One contribution it should be making is to furnish the philosophical critique of past and current theory with supporting empirical evidence. For…

The study of teachers' cognition and classroom practices about online corrective feedback in English language teaching is a recent trend in research. However, there is a paucity of studies on teachers' practices and cognition of online corrective feedback in speaking class. Therefore, this study attempts to bridge this research gap by…

Despite substantive work on the cognitive processes underlying comprehension, little research has examined the "phenomenological" nature of reading. We investigated how readers' experiences of visual and verbal thought related to their transportation into the narrative text and whether these were influenced by perspective-taking.…

This article explicates the operationalization of a theoretically robust framework in the teaching of business communication at an institute of higher learning. This article reimagines the design of a business communication course that focuses on the coalescence of both decoding and encoding processes of messages as a unified pedagogical approach…

Given the emergence of the use of digital tools in English teaching and learning and of sociocultural theory (SCT) in recent years, this paper sets out to introduce the concepts of tools, digital tools, and mediation in SCT. It then argues for the ground for enhancing and promoting the use of digital tools in English learning and teaching. Studies…

Mathematics curricula have traditionally focused on content knowledge, often in the form of a scope and sequence of increasingly difficult mathematics. The importance of using and applying mathematics is recognised in the current Australian Curriculum Mathematics (AC: M) as 'proficiencies' that are intended to be integrated with the content. There…

As proof and proving are the key elements of mathematics, several frameworks evaluating this process have been presented. Proof image, being one of them, was introduced by Kidron and Dreyfus (2014) through analyses of two mathematicians' activities. Authors clarified it in the context of components, and emphasized its relation with formal proof.…

In this article, Holly Bodman shares the journey she embarked on as a fourth-generation middle-class Pakeha to decolonise her practice. Bodman began by reading the work of local scholars and educators to discover her unconscious bias, which led to deepening cultural relationships with her students, their whanau, and the community. Armed with a new…

The current study examined whether the extent to which students perceived their teachers provided positive support influenced associations between teachers' emotional intelligence and social emotional learning (SEL) beliefs and multiple dimensions of students' other-oriented cognitions (i.e., perspective taking empathetic concern, and prosocial…

Background: Effective teaching of university chemistry in an online environment not only requires teachers to have specific discipline content knowledge; it also requires them to have knowledge and skills in technology-enhanced teaching practices. When transitioning from traditional face-to-face teaching into online contexts, teachers must learn…

This paper analyzed the integration of theatrical arts into storytelling instruction for primary school students. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of theatrical arts on the effectiveness of storytelling teaching, identify suitable theatrical techniques for the content and conditions of teaching, and propose methods for integrating these…

This introductory article will illustrate how ergonomics has come to occupy a prominent place in translation and interpreting studies. It will review the studies that have been carried out in recent years to measure physical, cognitive and organisational conditions within the language industry. It will be argued that, despite the growing awareness…

In recent years, most studies on flipped classrooms or flipped learning have focused on learners' motivation, academic achievement and teachers' and students' perceptions of the flipped classroom. Little research has involved interactions in the flipped classroom. This study aims to show that in-class collaborative learning in the flipped…

Students often use incoherent strategies in their problem solving involving force and motion, as revealed, e.g. when they are asked to draw force diagrams for amusement rides involving circular motion, whether in horizontal or vertical planes. Depending on the questions asked, assignments involving circular motion can reveal different types of…
