This article explores preservice teachers' (PSTs) experiences engaging in a program initiative blending antiracist teaching and project-based learning (PjBL) to create an antiracist PjBL. Informed by critical race theory and racial literacy theory we used children's literature as a catalyst for engaging PSTs in sustained conversations about…

This study aims to examine science teachers' views and concerns about artificial intelligence (AI). Phenomenology design, one of the qualitative research method designs, was used in the study. The study group consisted of five science teachers, one doctoral and four master's degree graduates. Semi-structured interview was preferred as a data…

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in biology education offers transformative potential, yet teacher preparedness for AI remains under-researched. This study explores the perceived benefits of AI integration and self-reported Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) among pre-service biology teachers from a South African…

Enormous scientific and technological development has brought the requirement of appropriate implementation of technologies into the educational process. The use of educational technologies is determined by several factors. One of them are teachers, for whom the effective integration of educational technologies is still a challenging task.…

Scalable and accessible professional development programs have the potential to address the opportunity gap many teachers experience. Yet many asynchronous online programs lack interaction with and timely feedback to teachers. We addressed this problem by developing a virtual, interactive program that uses intelligent tutoring systems to provide…

In this study, it is aimed to examine the relationship between prospective teachers' occupational anxiety and technological pedagogical content knowledge. Correlational model was used in this study. The participants consisted of 481 prospective teachers studying at Sakarya University Faculty of Education in the spring term of 2018-2019 academic…

Research studies have found that mathematics teachers face challenges when designing technology-integrated lessons to support mathematical inquiry with authentic problems. This suggests that teachers need to develop technological pedagogical knowledge (TPACK) or their professional knowledge for technology integration. Drawing upon the concept of…

Beliefs are known to influence learning processes and thus become relevant in the instruction of pre-service mathematics teachers with regard to the pedagogical content knowledge taught in courses of mathematics didactics at university. In exploring beliefs about mathematics didactics of pre-service teachers training for secondary school, 50…

This study is based on a Delphi study on environmental literacy which is related to both teachers professional development and environmental science, technology, engineering, and mathematics ([superscript E+]STEM ) literacy. In the light of the expert opinions, the goal is to determine what teachers should do to develop their experiences and…

The Swiss teacher education and training system offers a practically and academically oriented path for aspiring commercial vocational education and training (VET) teachers. Although teachers' content knowledge (CK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) are considered crucial for teaching quality and students' achievement, little is known about…

This causal comparative study examined differences between Modeling Instruction delivered through distance learning (DL) versus face-to-face (FTF) in terms of teachers' performance on professional development evaluation tools for content knowledge and self-efficacy. The theoretical foundation of this study included elements of professional…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the creative drama-based lesson plans prepared by the prospective Turkish language and literature teachers in terms of structuring elements. Research Method: The study was designed as a basic interpretive qualitative study. The data of the study were collected through the lesson plans prepared by…

This study compares three pre-collegiate teacher professional learning and development (PLD) integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) experiences framed in astronomy. The study is set in the western United States (USA) and involves 60 pre-collegiate teachers (in the USA these are K-12 teachers) over the course of three…

The purpose of this study was to investigate pre-service teachers' knowledge of content and students vis-à-vis their ability to anticipate, identify and clear high school students' misconceptions about inverse and composite functions. To accomplish this goal a case study research design was used to examine one fourth year mathematics education…

Competency in technological pedagogical content knowledge is one of the fundamental standards to become a qualified teacher in 21st century. Teachers are expected to have TPACK with technology integration efficacies in their classroom. This research aims to explain the roles of TPACK and its components on behaviorist and constructivist…
