Student teachers' knowledge during teaching practice becomes the contested phenomenon in the era of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR). Inadequate knowledge negatively impacts the existing South African curriculum and assessment policy statement (CAPS) subjects, despite the attempt at introducing the new 4IR curriculum into schools.…

Now days, the integration of technology in the concept of learning is the trend in global education. The conceptual framework model is a general reference, and the only concept is Technology, Pedagogy, and Content Knowledge (TPACK). However, vocational education has knowledge of specific content, so adjusting conceptual models in professional…

Teaching pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) at a topic-specific level requires clarity on the content-specific nature of the components employed, as well as the specific features that bring about the desirable depth in teacher explanations. Such understanding is often hazy; yet, it influences the nature of teacher tasks and learning opportunities…

Research on teacher educators' professional learning has gained increasing interest within science education. Curriculum materials have been suggested as a means of supporting "teacher" learning for several decades but have not yet been examined as a potential tool for supporting the learning of "teacher educators." In this…

Academic profession internationalisation is an important engine to promote higher education internationalisation, which can be analysed across four dimensions: international academic activities, cross-cultural concepts and contents, internationalisation attitudes and internationalisation knowledge and skills. The comparative analysis of the survey…

This paper investigated teachers' perceptions towards the integration of Artificial Intelligence educational tools (AIED) into their educational practices. Indeed, AI rapidly advances across various fields, including education, and it is essential to understand teachers' perceptions to effectively harness its potential. The study used a…

Education should strive to keep pace with the developments of the modern world and to fulfill its mission by not deviating from the principles of ethical and effective learning. In this process, it continues to be tested by unstoppable technological developments. GAI, with both its positive and negative effects, has spread incredibly quickly to…

In order to equip students with technology and 21st-century abilities like problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration, a new model of education that involves altered curriculum, infrastructure, professional development for teachers, textbooks, and examinations have emerged. The use of information technology can help spread knowledge more…

This preliminary quantitative research investigates preservice teachers' (PSTs) perceptions of adopting ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (AI) tool, focusing on the early stage of the diffusion of innovation (DOI) process. The study aims to understand PSTs' innovation consciousness and how it influences their perceptions of integrating ChatGPT…

Multilingual learners, also known as English learners (ELs), are underrepresented in K-12 computer science (CS) courses, where they often struggle. This paper demonstrates how a Computer Science for English Learners (CSforEL) professional development (PD) program supported Advanced Placement CS Principles (APCSP) teachers in attending to both…

Previous work has underestimated the interdependent meaning system of beliefs, values, goals, and actions that comprise educator mindsets and integrate content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, and dispositions to influence educator professional learning, shape practice, and catalyze school reform. The role of collective educator mindsets…

This study aims to determine the misconceptions of teacher candidates about the greenhouse effect concept by using Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm instead of human experts. The Knowledge Discovery from Data (KDD) process model was preferred in the study where the Analyse, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate (ADDIE) instructional design…

Instructional coaching has emerged as a promising form of professional development for teachers. However, little is known about the background, contexts, professional responsibilities, and beliefs of instructional coaches who work with science teachers. This mixed-methods study focused on instructional coaches in secondary schools across the…

The neoliberal internationalisation of teacher education affects the professional lives of teacher educators in various ways. However, a comprehensive understanding of research on teacher educators during the times of neoliberal internationalisation has not been synthesised. This study reviews the literature on teacher educators within the context…

Researchers in the field of teacher knowledge have been attempting to delineate pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in different subjects and different levels of education. To date, there is a need to develop a nuanced understanding on the PCK of Early Childhood Education (ECE) teachers who teach English as a foreign language (EFL). This study…
