F. Scott Walters – Educational Linguistics, 2021
Conversation analysis (CA) has exerted influence both on second language (L2) classroom pedagogy (e.g., Barraja-Rohan A, Pritchard R, Beyond talk: a course in communication and conversation skills for intermediate adult learners of English. Western Metropolitan Institute of TAFE, Melbourne, 1997; Wong J, Waring HZ, Conversation analysis and second…

Nilüfer Can Daskin – Educational Linguistics, 2021
Formative Assessment (FA) in L2 classrooms has been reconceptualized in theory as it is now recognized that it is locally situated, dynamic and co-constructed in classroom interaction and is as much an informal process as a formal one. This study adopts the term "informal formative assessment" to refer to any of those FA practices that…

Teachers are experiencing a change in practice, from teacher-centered to student-centered, which affects their work with English learners (ELs) in third through fifth grade mathematics classrooms. The implementation of student-centered discourse practices is essential to orchestrating productive mathematical discussions. However, the common…

Boerngen, Maria A.; Hortenstine, Emmalee – Natural Sciences Education, 2019
The objectives of this study were to identify characteristics that affect students' reported levels of risk tolerance and to measure the effect of "cheap talk" (simple, non-binding, nonverifiable messages) on classroom communication. In fall of 2017 and spring of 2018, questionnaires (n = 129) were administered in a farm management class…

Zepeda, Cristina D.; Hlutkowsky, Christina O.; Partika, Anne C.; Nokes-Malach, Timothy J. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
A gulf exists between prior work testing metacognitive instructional interventions and teacher practices that may support metacognition in the classroom. To help bridge this gulf, we designed an observational protocol to capture whether and how teachers provide metacognitive support in their talk and examined whether these supports were related to…

Instructor Talk--noncontent language used by instructors in classrooms--is a recently defined and promising variable for better understanding classroom dynamics. Having previously characterized the Instructor Talk framework within the context of a single course, we present here our results surrounding the applicability of the Instructor Talk…

Barrett, Alex – English Teaching Forum, 2019
Icebreakers are first-day activities that are meant to give students and the teacher an opportunity to get to know one another. They are helpful activities for taking a class full of strangers and turning them into friends (or at least acquaintances). However, icebreaker activities tend to be short and limited in the extent to which students can…

Gresch, Helge; Martens, Matthias – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2019
Teleology has been described as an intuitive cognitive bias and as a major type of student conception. There is controversy regarding whether teleological explanations are a central obstacle to, are legitimate in, or are even supportive of science learning. However, interaction in science classrooms has not yet been investigated with regard to…

Young, Karen; Joines, Jeffrey; Standish, Trey; Gallagher, Victoria – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2019
In the last 10-15 years, many institutions of higher education have switched from paper-and-pencil methods to online methods of administering student evaluations of teaching (SETs). One consequence has been a significant reduction in the response rates to such instruments. The current study was conducted to identify whether offering in-class time…

Grinath, Anna S.; Southerland, Sherry A. – Science Education, 2019
Orchestrating opportunities for students to engage in scientific talk in the classroom is challenging for most teachers and even more so for novice teaching assistants (TAs) who typically instruct introductory science laboratories at the postsecondary level. This study was designed to understand how TA moves are related to instances of scientific…
