Mathematics teacher questioning plays a significant role in students' learning. Research has persisted in analyzing teacher questioning from a cognitive perspective. Considering teaching as a relational practice, we explored teacher questioning from cognitive and affective perspectives. Data comprises 14 video-audio recordings, field notes,…

Listening to podcasts with a sole purpose to enhance communication abilities of L2 students is a great challenge. This study explored the challenges and attitudes of second language (L2) students when listening to authentic sources, specifically video podcasts on YouTube. Data of this qualitative research was collected through in-depth interviews…

The COVID-19 outbreak has forced our education process into online learning. Unfortunately, the suddenness has left both teachers and students unprepared, causing students to experience some degree of anxiety, particularly in foreign language speaking skills. This study aims to investigate students' perception of voice notes to reduce students'…

This study explores the relationship between L2 French students' conversations during interactive writing tasks and their interaction mindset, which is their perception about peer interaction. Students (N = 51) in three, high-intermediate/low-advanced French L2 classes completed an interaction mindset questionnaire and two interactive writing…

Comprehensibility has emerged as a useful and intuitive means of globally evaluating second language (L2) speakers in many research and instructional contexts. In most cases, L2 speakers' comprehensibility is assessed by external listeners who do not engage in extensive communication with the speakers, even though the degree to which a speaker is…

Student affairs practitioners, faculty, and researchers rely heavily on surveys to assess elements of students' college experience such as student satisfaction and cocurricular participation. The ubiquitous student survey has serious drawbacks for informing institutional improvement, however, given typically low response rates and systematic…

Background: In the US, and conspicuously via social media, we are witnessing an acceleration of what we term historical knowledge mobilisation: increasingly and in various ways, evidence derived from academic historical research is being shared with broader publics. Moreover, evidence-based and false or misleading historical claims are being…

The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to the burgeoning of online, blended, and hybrid classrooms. The transition to virtual learning has been a challenge for many teachers and learners, but for multilingual learners (MLs) who have to navigate the virtual learning environment in a new language, online learning can be particularly difficult.…

Maurice Sendak's picture book Where the "Wild Things Are" was investigated as a means of emotion recognition in preschool children. Sixty-six children and 60 adults participated in two tasks. The first was a book task, requiring identification of emotions in three target pictures, in three conditions. The visual condition presented the…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has considerable potential to model aspects of classroom discourse with the goals of automated assessment, feedback, and instructional support. However, modeling student talk is besieged by numerous challenges including a lack of data for child speech, low signal to noise ratio, speech disfluencies, and…

As the need for critical media literacy practices in classrooms increases, it is important to investigate students' experiences with a variety of media texts, specifically when analyzed from a critical media literacy stance. Critical media literacy creates spaces for students to question, challenge, and analyze the role of media texts in promoting…

Decision-making is the central element of self-determination, requiring targeted, systematic instruction to learn. In this study, researchers developed a multicomponent intervention, "What ELSE about this job?", to teach job decision-making skills to college students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The intervention…

Teaching children to read has been one of the primary functions of education systems throughout history; however, not all children are adequately prepared for reading success. Students with disabilities, particularly those identified with Specific Learning Disabilities, demonstrate lower rates of reading proficiency than their nondisabled peers.…

Design Research (DR) has been used to develop means of supporting mathematical learning for typically-developing students. This study investigated the use of DR to develop context specific tools to support adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) to improve their numeracy capabilities and engagement in daily tasks. Using observation and…

Many studies have revealed multilinguals' reduced emotionality of a foreign language (LX) compared to a first language (L1). Contrary to the bulk of research so far, which has focused on multilinguals' own emotion experience or emotion processing, this study focuses on interpersonal communication and investigates how one perceives the intensity…
