The purpose of this research is to determine the ability of future teachers to organise educational activities on the basis of pedagogical tasks. This research was designed in accordance with the quantitative research method. The study group of the research consists of 448 teacher candidates studying in education faculties of various universities…

In "Teaching Toward Rightful Presence in Middle School STEM," Edna Tan and Angela Calabrese Barton introduce the rightful presence framework, a multifaceted approach to instruction that enables historically marginalized students to gain agency in their science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning. This necessary work…

In this paper, we investigate the learning experiences, beliefs and motivations of students in classes where the mathematics teachers have received support for using inquiry-based learning activities. Data were collected from 248 students in the age-range 11-16 using electronic questionnaires. Our results show that key features of inquiry-based…

We evaluated whether maternal parenting strategies (maternal achievement-oriented control and maternal monitoring) and maternal teaching strategies are related to children's academic competence in middle childhood. We also assessed whether the relations of maternal parenting strategies with children's academic competence are mediated by maternal…

This study aimed to assess the impact of problem-based learning (PBL) on students' achievement in mechanical waves among secondary schools in South Western Uganda. Four hundred and nineteen students (419) from 19 schools were involved in this study. A quasi-experimental research method was employed through Solomon's four-group design. Form six…

Vocal exchanges are often comprised of responses under multiple sources of stimulus control. For example, a picture may contain multiple components, and an instructor may ask a learner to respond differentially to questions about the picture (e.g., "who," "what," "where," "color," "number,"…

There is an ongoing debate about the omission of specific learners in modern learning theories. Most learning theories are derived from theoretical works by the dominant culture. This paper argues that despite the criticisms and shortcomings of Knowles' andragogical theory, the instructor can alter the framework as needed to meet the varying needs…

Music is learned and taught in multiple ways dependent on the socio-cultural contexts in which learning occurs. The processes employed by music teachers have been extensively explored by music educators and ethnomusicologists in a range of contexts, although there has been limited research into which modes are most predominantly used in different…

Threaded with racialized and gendered pathologies, Black folx wrestle with a normative gaze that understands them as irrational, unintelligent, and deserving of constant surveillance. In this way, Black folx are expected to model postures of whiteness that agree with the wardrobe of anti-Blackness. In this manuscript, we take up the pedagogical…

The COVID-19 pandemic precipitated a rapid shift to virtual learning environments (VLEs) in higher education institutions (HEIs), presenting a complex array of challenges and opportunities. This study investigates the critical factors influencing faculty members' swift transition to VLEs during emergencies, focusing on a semi-government Emirati…

Zearn Math is a popular software platform for K-8 mathematics learning, designed to enable all students to successfully access grade-level content. RAND researchers collaborated with Zearn, the product's developer, to design this evaluation. Then RAND conducted the study independently, randomly assigning 64 schools in an urban Texas district to…

Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are transforming language education by enabling more effective instructional practices and enhanced learning outcomes. AI-driven technologies--including tutoring systems, personalized learning platforms, and automated assessment tools--have the potential to revolutionize classroom instruction.…

Digital divides--uneven patterns of access--are a major feature of cyberspace. This article opens by noting that most students are digital natives who grew up with the Internet. Second, it summarizes digital divides, including global patterns, rural--urban differences, ethnic and gender discrepancies, and the role of smartphones. The third section…

Team-based learning (TBL) is a highly intense active learning pedagogy that uses a cycle of preclass preparation, formative assessment for readiness, mini-lectures, and complex team exercises. Consistent with the literature on active learning, prior research on TBL consistently shows its benefits for student outcomes as compared with previous…

Discipleship, a primary charge of the Church, involves teaching and learning. In order to disciple well, the Church and its clergy must consider how to teach content so that adults learn effectively. This consideration ought to begin in seminary, the primary source of educational preparation for Anglican clergy. Research is needed to identify the…
