The COVID-19 pandemic affected teacher education; universities had to adapt quickly through emergency pedagogy. One problem that emerged was the relationship between schools and teacher students. The situation was more critical in early childhood teacher education than in others. The conditions forced them to adjust to the absence of children in…

This qualitative, multiple case study provided comprehensive descriptions of the conceptual difficulties and learning experiences of in-service teachers as they improved their ability to effectively model fraction division with pictorial diagrams. Video data were collected on eight teachers as they individually progressed through a professional…

Pearson's Learning Foundations describe the optimal conditions for learning and reflect the learner experience Pearson hopes their products will create. Pearson does this by incorporating the Learning Design Principles. Each of the Learning Design Principles goes into detail about a key principle, supporting product design and marketing by…

For decades, research has explored the learning experiences of students in community college. This study adds to the existing literature and brings in the learning experience for community college students since the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to explore how COVID-19 shifted the learning experience for criminal justice…

The level of supervision an intern receives during an internship has been shown to impact the quality of the student learning experience. However, there is evidence that unpaid undergraduate interns receive less supervision due to a variety of factors. The purpose of this mixed-methods study is to understand the relationship that university funds…

The quality of interaction is an essential factor leading to learner satisfaction, academic achievement, learner engagement, and a positive attitude toward distance education. The purpose of this study is to examine different types of interactions within online kinesiology courses. Adopting a multiple case study design with a mixed-methods…

Textbooks play a vital role in the Nepali education system since they are one of the main resources for teaching and learning mathematics. Because of poor physical infrastructure and inadequate educational resources, both teachers and students heavily rely on textbooks. In this regard, this study investigated the mathematics textbook authors'…

Prior research suggests the interdependent nature of prospective teachers (PTs) beliefs about mathematics and beliefs about teaching and learning mathematics. Further, PTs' beliefs are said to be shaped by their prior experiences as mathematics learners. Using structural equation modeling, we assessed the relation between early childhood and…

The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a systematic change in course modalities due to the nationwide suspension of in-person instruction, resulting in the transition to emergency remote distance learning via Zoom. This transition certainly facilitated affordances of flexibility and continuity, but with it brought issues of unfamiliarity, lack of…

The retrospective research methods and transformative learning theory frame used in the study honor teachers as adult learners and value their…

This study illuminates the motivation and learning experience of Chinese and European academic members who attended an educational leadership training programme. Data were collected through participants' registration forms and learning reflection reports. A qualitative content analysis research method by MAXQDA2022 is adopted in this research. The…

Theorists and educators increasingly highlight the importance of computational thinking in STEM education. While various scaffolding strategies describe how to best support this skillset (i.e., paired programming, worked examples), less research has focused on the design and development of these digital tools. One way to support computational…

Much research attention has been focused on learning through game playing. However, very little has been focused on student learning through game making, especially in science. Moreover, none of the studies on learning through making games has presented an account of how students engage in the process of game design in real time. The present study…

This paper presents and evaluates a role-play simulation called 'Theatrical Technology Assessment', in which students learn about complex stakeholder dynamics around emerging technologies. This role-play combines insights from Constructive Technology Assessment, improvisational theatre and educational role-play designs. It was implemented in an…
