School leadership is increasingly recognized as a cornerstone of educational improvement, particularly in contexts marked by inequality and resource constraints. In response, national and international leadership development programmes, such as South Africa's Advanced Diploma in School Leadership and Management (AdvDip SLM), the United Kingdom's…

The emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) marks a fundamental transformation in education, mirroring wider technological changes across society. This conceptual article positions GenAI not merely as a tool, but as a relational paradigm shift that redefines pedagogy. Drawing on posthumanist and phenomenological perspectives, we…

Purpose: This study aims to assess the impact of augmented reality (AR)-based teaching methods on sixth-grade students' recall and recognition abilities. The integration of immersive technologies in education is evaluated to explore its potential for enhancing learning outcomes and engagement among students. By focusing on AR as a teaching tool,…

Researching teacher agency in the field of language education has captured worldwide attention, especially in Vietnam. In the context of the new general education curriculum proposed by the MOET in 2018, it is of great importance to shed light on teacher agency enactment in implementing the new general education curriculum, particularly the…

Science and technology play an essential role in our daily lives, requiring adequate training for citizens and future teachers. In this sense, the way in which science is shown and perceived by society--and by teachers in training--should be part of the professional knowledge of teachers. This study set out to describe and analyse the progression…

The purpose of this study was to investigate how teachers' rational questioning strategies support students' collective argumentations in the 5E-based flipped classroom approach using GeoGebra. The participants of this study were 18 seventh-grade students. Technology-enhanced tasks, audio recordings, and dynamic constructions of the participants…

In 2019, I taught a 10-week online Course for students of a University BA degree. The Course was a conversion of my 4-week 2017 MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), "What and How to teach with Video."
