Electromagnetic induction, represented by either Faraday's law or the Lorentz force law, produces many paradoxes requiring careful examination and application of these laws. The paradoxical example of induction, presented herein, arose in a class and is resolved within the framework of special relativity.

As science education faces the urgent task of rehumanization amid growing technocratic rationality, scientific eponyms, especially in literary contexts, offer a potential of rehumanization for value-based science education.

One of the critiques of proficiency as defined by scales, such as that of ACTFL, is its lack of grounding in linguistic realities.

In this paper, we discuss the role prosody plays in reading, contextualized in…

In this article, we examine whether cross-national studies disclose enough information for independent researchers to evaluate the validity and reliability of the findings (evaluation transparency) or to perform a direct replication (replicability transparency). The first contribution is theoretical. We develop a heuristic theoretical model…
