This quantitative research collected information from secondary mathematics educators about their self-efficacy on technology use, their technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK), and their level of technology implementation according to the levels on the SAMR model. These four levels are Substitution, Augmentation, Modification,…

In this issue, the Harvard Educational Review reprints Giroux's "Theories of Reproduction and Resistance in the New Sociology of Education: A Critical Analysis," which this journal first published in 1983. The construct of resistance in educational spaces continues to be invoked by researchers and the media alike, with different degrees…

This study explored and examined students' perceptions of teacher confirmation, those behaviors that teachers engage in that make students feel confirmed as valuable, significant individuals, as experienced in online courses. With over 450 students' written descriptions of experiences in online classes across three different universities, this…

While there is an emerging scholarship on decolonising dentistry, the debate about reflexivity, positionality and white privilege in dental educational research and practice is still at a developmental stage. This article aims to contribute to this nascent debate by contemplating the question- is it appropriate, or possible, for a white researcher…

This study examined potential bias with respect to perceived gender and race in pre-service teachers' professional noticing of children's mathematical thinking. The goal of the study was to explore emerging connections between professional noticing and equity concerns in mathematics education and discover the extent to which such noticing may be…

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether teachers' engagement in research fosters teachers' professional development and school development. We investigated changes in teachers' professional behavior, the impact of such changes, and factors that affect such changes. Questionnaires were distributed among more than hundred teachers who…

This paper explores a common representational form of teaching that has reappeared in current educational theory: the figure of the teacher as one who points. Informed by Nicolas Bourriaud's notion of relational aesthetics I outline how the form of pointing is actually a relational formation that invites students into certain relationships with…

The quasi-market condition of education intensified the need to seek ongoing school improvements, manage uncertainty, and innovate school-wide pedagogy and curricula. Sequentially, interest in teachers' entrepreneurial behavior (TEB) has grown rapidly in recent years, which established the importance of entrepreneurial behavior as an effective…

While recent research demonstrates that teacher noticing is a core construct of teaching, it also raises new questions about this construct. Here, we offer an expanded framework that addresses three key questions. Specifically, we suggest that attending involves not only selecting particular features of instruction to observe, but also…

Performance feedback has been shown to improve teachers' classroom management skills. Typically, a researcher provides the performance feedback, not school-based personnel. Therefore, we investigated the effects of performance feedback on classroom management skills when the feedback is delivered by school-based personnel. We used a concurrent…

The concept of scaffolding in the learning process refers to teacher assistance to all students in the class when they are unable to solve math problems correctly, which is identified by errors in solving the issues. The assistance in question is temporary. The diversity of students' academic abilities in the class influences the teacher's…

While once forbidden in classrooms, laughter is increasingly encouraged as contributing to a positive learning environment. However, analyses of laughter in conversation show that laughter performs multiple social functions, some of which are not necessarily positive. Applying this lens, this study investigates the interactional functions of…

The purpose of this qualitative, hermeneutical phenomenological study was to understand teacher relationships in non-traditional international schools. The setting included 12 Chinese internationalized schools, institutions serving local rather than expatriate students, offering a fusion of local and international curricula, and employing local…

This paper is about social class and the teaching profession. While class has long been a core focus in the Sociology of Education, little attention has been paid to how it is conceived and enacted in the context of the professions, including teaching. While research in the area is increasing, we know relatively little about "the daily class…

Early childhood teachers utilise a variety of strategies to promote movement and physical activity (MOPA) in ECEC settings. However, less is known about the processes that underpin these strategies. Using the ecological view of teacher agency, we explored how early childhood education and care (ECEC) teachers from the Philippines actively…
