Learning progressions have become increasingly prevalent in mathematics education as they offer a fine-grain map of possible learning pathways a child may take within a particular domain. However, there is an opportunity to build upon this research in ways that consider learning from multiple perspectives. Many current forms of learning…

The present study is aimed at examining the links between L2 self-guides and self-determination theory (SDT). 429 Korean university students participated in the study and their responses to the questionnaires on L2 self-guides in the 2 x 2 model and autonomous motivation of SDT were analyzed. The results show that, first, promotion focused L2…

In response to the evolving landscape of language education, the "Dynamic Language Learning Framework" is conceived as a progressive pedagogical approach informed by key principles from notable works in the field. Inspired by the communicative language teaching philosophy proposed by Hymes (1971) and expanded upon by Canale and Swain…

This study investigated the impact of technology on students with special needs. Technology is increasingly becoming more embedded in education and is used to help support a wide variety of student accommodations. As technology usage in education increases, it is important that research on its impact on student population groups includes special…

Aim: The aim of this article is to analyse Dewey's writing on vocational aspects of education in his book "Democracy and Education," An introduction to the philosophy of education to identify and to relate the main philosophical ideas to Maslow's theory of motivation and to establish the key similarities between the two theories to…

Units Coordination and Covariational Reasoning are powerful frameworks for modeling students' mathematics in arithmetic reasoning and construction of relationships between changing quantities, respectively. This case study of an advanced stage 2, 8th-grade algebra student, Daniel, investigated connections between his units coordination and…

This book provides an overview and analysis of the role that classroom interaction plays in instructed second language acquisition. The authors synthesise current state-of-the-art research on how classroom interaction benefits L2 learning through the lens of three theoretical perspectives: cognitive-interactionist (with a focus on how…

The number of female forest landowners (FFLs) has been growing throughout the United States. This growth demands educational outreach for a demographic that is often behind their male counterparts in experience and education. The purpose of this exploratory study was to design and host educational workshops geared towards FFLs and to answer the…

This study sought to understand Philippine mathematics teachers' practices in relation to situated learning theory (SLT) by developing and administering a questionnaire. Following a five-step process for developing a questionnaire by Harlacher (2016), the final items reflected the teachers' performance indicators identified in the Framework for…

Pre-service teachers often learn to teach in siloed methods courses despite evidence that interdisciplinary pedagogies benefit elementary school students. To address this discrepancy, six teacher educators initiated a two-year self-study to improve their practice. They co-created a shared module to integrate technology, literacy, and science…

As the 21st century unfolds, the world has become increasingly fast-paced, interconnected and unpredictable compared to previous generations (McChrystal, et al., 2015). As a result, education researchers and practitioners must be prepared for the challenge of helping students better apply their knowledge to respond to the complex and novel…

In this study, we analyse a 9-year-old child's argumentative participation in a group discussion, from a microgenetic development angle. Specifically, we follow one child through the discussion and analyse the development process, defined as changed participation and as interactionally contingent upon the other participants and the teacher. The…

The rapid development of digital technology and its pervasiveness in everyday life requires everybody to develop the skills necessary to engage with such technology for one's mundane tasks and communication needs. The first steps towards developing these skills can be particularly challenging for older adults, who might need to fundamentally adapt…

Career and Technical Education (CTE) is vital in students' secondary education, vocational skills, and college, career, and military readiness. To determine how CTE affects students' success, Texas CTE teachers were asked about their perceptions of CTE elements to determine how secondary education students are experiencing fundamental knowledge…

Kolb Learning Cycle Theory is employed in this study as a pedagogical framework to show how combining economics with photography can foster experiential learning. The author draws on her personal experience of teaching a course titled "Economic Issues through a Photographer's Lens" to undergraduate students in an urban setting. She…
