The paper discusses the interpretation of adversative clauses introduced by "pero" and concessive clauses introduced by "aunque" in Spanish. Specifically, the discussion centers around structures that exhibit the forms: (i) "A, pero B," (ii) "A, aunque B-INDICATIVE," and (iii) "A, aunque…

The push to create ethical universities is a shared global goal, reflecting the important role that higher education plays in shaping ethical development across societies. In the context of West Africa, this qualitative study explored the understanding and commitment to fostering ethical universities, drawing on the insights of 29 participants…

This study explores the capability of artificial intelligence tools to generate questions aligned with Bloom's Revised Taxonomy to support educators. On October 6, 2023, ChatGPT 4, Google Bard (now Gemini), and an experienced elementary educator were prompted to create questions for each Bloom's cognitive levels in math, science, and a popular…

Neuroanatomy education has evolved and improved over the years, driven by advances in technology that have led to the development of innovative interactive digital and immersive learning resources. While neuroanatomy educators have been keeping pace with and harnessing these technology advances, many medical students still struggle to apply their…

Previous research has found gender inequitable equipment usage across various lab course contexts. Few studies, however, have tested possible remediation strategies. In this work, we use hierarchical linear modeling to compare men and women's lab equipment usage in two group work structures across three course contexts. In one in-person course,…

This study explored patterns of social interaction and group-level regulation in terms of co- and socially shared regulation in collaborative learning and their relation to learners' metacognitive task perceptions. 72 secondary school students performed collaborative physics tasks in small groups over multiple 90-minute sessions. Video recordings…

The research aimed to measure the effect of educators' teaching effectiveness focusing on content knowledge (CK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) as key determinants. A descriptive survey design was utilised for the study and the participating educators were selected through a simple random sampling method. Four research questions were…

Mathematical modeling tasks can engage students in ways in which they see themselves as mathematicians capable of using mathematics to solve real-world and complex problems. As mathematics teacher educators and researchers, the authors collaborated with two 5th-grade teachers, Liz and Anna (pseudonyms), focusing on equitable practices that foster…

Current educational trends leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to provide high-quality teaching and enhance students' learning competitiveness. This study aimed to evaluate the acceptance of artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) for assisted learning and design creation among art and design students. Based on an extended technology…

This study examined the types of representations that primary school children create in solving different types of problems, the relationship between these types of representations, and the accuracy rates in solving the problems. The study was conducted with 80 students attending primary school's 2nd and 3rd grades. An achievement test prepared by…

This study analyses the characterisation and evolution of the personal metaphors of a sample of 34 trainee foreign language teachers, through a questionnaire of open-ended questions that included asking the participants to make drawings representing the roles of the teacher. Four categories of metaphors were considered for the analysis:…

Nomadic communities face major challenges in providing education for their children due to their lifestyle. These challenges have been shaped by various cultural, ethnic and political factors. This requires personalised interventions to maintain education for nomadic students in different regions. However, little is known in the literature about…

This qualitative study examines the experiences of first-year TAs as they conducted teacher research projects in the TA practicum. We argue that teacher research in the practicum provides a way to bridge teaching and knowledge making, foster a continual and layered learning practice, and extend the learning of the practicum beyond the first year.

The issue of mathematical knowledge in teaching has been widely discussed over the years. In this study, we carried out a systematic review of the literature with the aim of understanding, quantitatively and qualitatively, the studies developed related to the mathematical knowledge necessary for the teaching of Mathematics, with a focus on Numbers…

The academic success of students in higher education institutions (HEIs) depends on a multitude of factors, including the assessment strategies employed. In recent years, many HEIs have prioritised continuous assessment methods, often as a complement to or replacement for traditional final exams. This study examined the impact of two assessment…
