Chemical reasoning takes many forms. The focus in this paper is on a reasoning process that facilitates using experimental evidence to make connections between macroscopic and submicroscopic domains, which we will refer to as "creating representation." It is a particular type of reasoning that has played a critical role in chemistry,…

Designing reflective activities for online video learning could enhance learning outcomes and, to some extent, influence learning processes (ie, attentional processes and emotional experiences). It is necessary to select different levels of reflective activities in online video learning according to learning processes and outcomes. This study…

The paper introduces a tool for analyzing the teaching venue (where and how the teaching happens) of science teachers, called Strands of Science Teaching (SST). Its construction was by analogy to the Strands of science Learning, a set of categories of analysis for the science teaching. Based on the concepts of Learning by Inquiry, the aspects of…

Leading mathematics teaching and learning in schools is a complex job that requires the development of specialised knowledge and skills. Opportunities to learn in professional workshops can help to build leadership knowledge and skills. The results presented here describe 262 leaders' prompted reflections at the end of a professional development…

All of us in education can find opportunities to interrupt the status quo that allows inequities to go unchallenged. In "Teaching for Racial Equity: Becoming Interrupters," authors Tonya Perry, Steven Zemelman, and Katy Smith show us the way. Using Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz's Racial Literacy Development framework, the authors demonstrate how…

Purpose: There is currently a dearth of research on the implications of the epistolary as a site for knowledge production. This paper aims to demystify the process of academic theorizing through the co-authors' co-excavative epistolary method. Design/methodology/approach: Through co-excavative epistolary practices, the co-authors' relationship was…

This self-study presents an autoethnography which combines the writing about memories of meaningful formal and informal learning I experienced during my childhood, and self-reflection on those episodes to identify associations which are likely to have inspired my pedagogical beliefs and practice as a teacher educator. It has been experienced as an…

The impact of western philosophy, with a particular focus on the Enlightenment, formed an epistemic default that elevated the intellectual ways of knowing at the expense of any other forms of knowing. This paper used John David Trentham's hermeneutical approach, the Inverse Consistency Protocol, as the framework for exploring the what and the why…

Students develop diversity-relevant graduate attributes over time. First steps to cross-cultural competency include learning to recognise and respectfully engage with competing interpretations of history and disparate positionalities, including Indigenous diversity. To learn such skills, students need multiple non-threatening opportunities to…

This article reports on mathematics teachers' professional learning prospects through video-stimulated recall (VSR), a tool for in-house professional development. Providing timeous feedback to teachers on aspects of their teaching that they should improve are greatly beneficial. Two Mathematics teachers at a rural high school in a province of…
