Knowledge development, application, and refinement are essential parts of students' reading. One way to observe how students use their knowledge as they read is through talk.

Traumatic events can alter the brain structure, affecting cognitive capacities and academic performance. Educators at all grade levels are responsible for supporting students through trauma-informed approaches. Previous trauma-informed research focused on K-12 education levels. Graduate-level occupational therapy educators' experiences and…

We develop the notions of "resistance" and "points of entry" in the context of alternative written textual formats used in physics teacher education. Studies point out that textbooks have played an important role in undergraduate physics courses, which can be part of the initial training of physics teachers. On the foundation…

This post-qualitative inquiry investigates the challenge of microfascism for curriculum and pedagogy. Contemporary schooling has been rightly implicated in the expression and production of microfascist desires for control, and the situation seems to demand a robust political response through curriculum and pedagogy. However, as this examination of…

This project uses study abroad programs and education as a test case for establishing the…

ChatGPT and generative AI technologies have infiltrated our learning spaces, and, as a result, schools may be changed forever. While some educators may seek to ban the use of chatbots, motivated by a fear of the rampant plagiarism the technology might invite, I, however, write this dissertation with the intent of finding uses for AI as a…
