Education Transformation in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era demands early-childhood teachers to possess pedagogical competencies that are not only theoretical but also innovative, creative, and contextual. These competencies are essential for supporting the holistic development of young children, encompassing cognitive, social, emotional, and…

This study examined the impact on secondary mathematics teacher candidates (TCs) TPACK knowledge and knowledge subcomponents of a two-course sequence based on the high school Advanced Placement (AP) Computer Science Principles (CSP) course leading to add-on teaching credentials for Computer Science (CS). We further examined the outcomes of Praxis…

The use of multiple-choice (MC) instruments to assess pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has advantages in terms of test economy and objectivity, but it also poses challenges, for example, in terms of adequately capturing the intended construct. To help address these challenges, we developed and evaluated a new instrument to assess science…

This study investigated the development of prospective elementary teachers (PETs)' subject matter and pedagogical content knowledge for teaching early algebra through participation in case discussions. PETs attended five weeks of intervention as part of a method course, which included case discussions. During the intervention, the participants…

Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is a teacher knowledge construct in connection with integrating technology into teaching. The present study was designed to examine ESP teachers' perceptions of their knowledge and skills with regard to the integration of ICT in their instructional practices.

Teacher preparation programs are essential to ensure pre-service teachers are equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to teach in the PK-12 learning environment, but are rooted in a traditional paradigm of a compacted curriculum with little room for more content. The addition of Computational Thinking (CT) becomes one more thing to add to…

In this paper, we put forward a theoretical framework for understanding data literacy in initial teacher education. We have come to understand that data literacy is non-linear, non-hierarchical, and requires pre-service teachers to be able to work with a range of data sources to respond to the complexities of a classroom. Knowledge, therefore, can…

Studies of facilitators of professional development (PD) for mathematics teachers have been increasing in order to improve their preparation for conducting PD. However, specifications of what facilitators should learn often lack a conceptualization that captures facilitators' expertise for different PD content. In this article, we provide a…

The ability to integrate technology in learning, also known as Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK), is one of the competencies that teachers must master in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. TPCK can be prepared when a teacher becomes a pre-service teacher at a university. The goal of this study was to describe the impact of…

Practitioner inquiry methodology, applied in primary and secondary schools worldwide, provides a structure for systematic study of an instructor's own teaching practice in order to address a self-identified instructional dilemma. This methodology holds promise for improving teaching in higher education as well. In this dialogue, two faculty…

This article addresses the practices that English for academic legal purposes (EALP) teachers employ to tackle law subject content. It draws on research that took place in a British university pre-sessional course for third-year undergraduate and postgraduate law students. The data come from tutorials, legal skills classroom observations and…

The purpose of the present study was to understand the nature of the link between science teachers' epistemologies and their socioscientific issue (SSI) teaching discourse. It is important to consider this link due to the limitations of science teachers in shifting from monologic to more dialogic orientations in their teaching, despite SSI-based…

This study aimed to investigate the specialized content knowledge of pre-service primary school teachers about multiplication through problem posing and the justification for the accuracy of the multiplication of a two-digit number and a single-digit number. The research questions were formulated based on the theoretical framework of Ball and her…

The aims to examine the relationship between preservice teachers' 21st-century learner skills and their curriculum literacy levels. 476 preservice teachers studying at the Faculty of Education of a state university in Turkey participated in the study. The relational survey model was adopted in the study. The data were collected through "21st…

This research aimed to develop an online program for the development of the teachers' skills to enhance the students' adaptability. The research materials consisted of the teacher's learning manuals and teacher guidelines for student development. Based on the Research and Development (R&D) methodology, the implication of the R1&D1 and the…
