Discussion is a practice used in mathematics methods courses to support prospective teachers' pedagogical ideas. Underexamined but central to the development of instructional activities, including discussions of teaching, are mathematics teacher educators' (MTEs') tacit and explicit theories of learning and teaching. We report findings from a…

Several researchers (e.g., Allen & Paesani, 2010; Maxim, 2009; MLA Report, 2007) argue that the language-literature divide limits language development in many foreign language departments and that the speaking skill is the most affected by this common two-tiered curriculum (Swender, 2003). This study investigates the implementation of the…

This study reviews 60 papers using a Likert scale and published between 2012-2021. Screening for literature review uses the PRISMA method. The data analysis technique was carried out through data extraction, then synthesized in a structured manner using the narrative method. To achieve credible research results at the stage of the data collection…

This study examines how a project-based civics curriculum emphasizing locally relevant issues developed students' civic perspective-taking by creating discursive spaces for students to make connections with content. The underlying aim of the curriculum was to foster deliberative social studies classrooms by developing students' civic…

Mathematical identity is a socio-motivational construct known to be a predictor of mathematical achievement. Students who identify positively with mathematics are more likely to pursue advanced courses and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)-related occupations. Although mathematical identity is shaped by a myriad of internal…

This study examines emotion regulation strategies in written digital discussions revolving around controversial issues. Twenty-five undergraduate students, placed in five study groups, took part in written digital discussions. Two groups were chosen to participate in the study. Participants were interviewed and were asked to read the transcript of…

Educators constantly wrestle with the question of how to engage students in an environment in which students are increasingly distracted. This issue has become more relevant as instructors have been forced to pivot to the use of a variety of online learning modalities to administer instruction. While the synchronous online class session allows for…

In this article, we examine the promise of a popular set of sentence stems, "I notice" and "I wonder," for fostering productive discussion in an online course for teachers. Drawing on teachers' responses to one another's classroom reflections, we look for evidence regarding how course prompts encouraging teachers to use these…

Disinformation has become a core concept in communications research, related to media, technological and political phenomena that complexify its definition and diagnosis. Although its approach has been mainly quantitative, focus groups have also been used to understand the perception of the audience of this particular issue. This research is part…

Collaborative learning can be a worthwhile and valuable part of a student's online course experience, and interpersonal exchanges among members of an online course community often rely on greater intentionality within the design of the learning experience. We present a synergistic framework for strategic design of collaborative learning in the…

The article analyses in detail two lessons that were part of a larger research project on English teaching in Canada, England and Scotland. It considers whether the two English lessons are by their nature both dialogic and formative in practice. The research undertaken was carried out using arts-based criticism. It found that Eaglestone's notion…

The need to identify student cognitive engagement in online-learning settings has increased with our use of online learning approaches because engagement plays an important role in ensuring student success in these environments. Engaged students are more likely to complete online courses successfully, but this setting makes it more difficult for…

Professional learning communities (PLCs) involve a process of collaboration, focus on student data and best instructional practices, and serve as a way for all students can receive an equitable education. Many schools implementing PLCs considered the term a noun, not a verb, leading to an inequitable education for high school students across…

This study explores how community-based digital archive projects are collaboratively designed by universities and community stakeholders, specifically examining practices that may be associated with archive sustainability. My study builds upon existing knowledge in both digital archive studies and the Digital Humanities (DH) by investigating the…

As part of one predominantly White institution's efforts to better support teacher candidates of Color (TCOCs), researchers held focus group discussions with TCOCs. Findings include TCOCs' diverse identities and shared experiences of "onlyness" in educational settings (Harper et al., 2011). Recommendations include racial affinity groups…
