After COVID 19 pandemic started, United States public schools pursued alternative learning options. Schools began teaching virtually, so schools could reopen safely. Eventually, some schools preferred to continue with the virtual learning option and the face-to-face option with safety measures. The problem is that many teachers shifted from…

Given the dyadic and multi-layered nature of professional relations, informal teacher learning mostly goes through complex, non-linear, and context-dependent professional interactions. Advice-seeking relationships (ASRs) are the most common form of informal interactions between teachers. However, due mostly to analytical constraints, little is…

This paper addresses the important question of the nature of the subject matter (content knowledge) that should be a base for a science teacher education curriculum. We present our argument in two parts. Firstly, we report an argument conceptualising the nature of content knowledge for science teaching that we called TerSCK. This is followed by a…

Creating awareness of environmental sustainability issues through formal education may be an effective way to help citizens deal with these issues. Teachers, however, have not been sufficiently trained on how to teach with sustainability concerns in mind. For this study, a purposively selected group of six chemistry teachers was exposed to an…

The paper introduces the notion of collateral creativity as an unintended outcome of the appropriate use of technology, both physical and digital, in the teaching of mathematics. The notion is motivated by Dewey's conceptual framework of collateral learning which enables one gaining knowledge beyond the intent of the traditional curriculum.…

We use a co-authorship network analysis to describe and examine the social network of researchers studying physical education content knowledge worldwide. Co-authorship network analysis is a method for determining the scope, trend, and focus of research around a topic. It provides a way to evaluate both the growth of a field and to examine the…

Preparing teachers to teach mathematics is at the intersection of the three areas where cultural and racial knowledge intersects with content and pedagogical content knowledge. Consequently, preparing teachers to teach mathematics must consider all peoples' practices. This highlights two Black girls marginalized by their teacher, which provides…

Teachers' self-regulated learning (SRL) plays a crucial role in developing technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK), a complex professional skill. It is crucial to identify teachers' SRL activities that may lead to favorable TPACK. Previous studies have focused on the analysis of individual data sources from self-reported surveys or log…

This pilot randomised controlled trial study investigated the impact of Reading Research to Classroom Practice professional development (PD) on elementary teachers' knowledge of reading skills. This PD, developed by a United States' state education agency, is accredited by the International Dyslexia Association. Teachers (n = 34) were randomly…

This study investigated in-service teachers' conceptualization of the pure imaginary number, within the Cartesian form, "a" + "ib" where "a" and "b" are real numbers and "i" is the imaginary unit. As part of a larger design-based research study, in which a professional development (PD) program was…

Amidst this era of rapid technological advancement, the impact of White dominance in STEM causes inequity throughout the design, implementation, and function of modern technologies. Evidence of this includes AI systems that perpetuate racial and gender biases, medical devices that are incompatible with non-White medical needs, and hiring…

Despite the several mismatches of methodological understanding between teachers and students in higher education, research methodologies in education are a relatively common pedagogical practice in most European advanced courses in education. However, only some studies have shown what pedagogical practices are mobilised by the teachers with their…

This study explored the effects of a professional development (PD) on neuroeducation general pedagogical knowledge and instructional strategies for three cohorts of in-service teachers on their teaching self-efficacy beliefs. Teacher self-efficacy is one of the most influential factors for teaching practices, student outcomes, and teacher…

Concern regarding the prevalence of out-of-field teaching continues to grow, as does the body of literature calling for a better understanding of the nuanced complexities associated with out-of-field teaching. In this paper, we extend our previous analysis of data from a survey of the profession teaching Years 7-10 mathematics in South Australia.…

Distance-based technologies have been one of the foci of technology-related studies since the pandemic first appeared, but there is still a need for further research to gain a greater understanding of how teachers are using these technologies in the post-pandemic era. Thus, the aim of this study is to determine whether the level of digital…
