Three systematic observation instruments were used in coding video recordings of five instructors who taught two lessons each in a historically black college/university (HBCU) in the…

By the year 2044, more than half the United States population will be non-white. Extension is faced with the challenge of being inclusive in our multicultural world; thus, it is important that Extension educators receive cultural competency training. Cultural competency training based on and informed by intercultural theory and practice leads to…

Problem-oriented teaching (POT) activities are important in classroom instruction. The level of student response can be influenced by different teacher behaviours in POT. However, the characteristics of teachers' multimodal behaviours at different levels of response are unclear. This study applied epistemic network analysis to explore the…

Teacher noticing, a situation-specific part of teachers' professional competence, has gained much importance in the past two decades. The construct is believed to play a crucial role in the transfer of knowledge and skills into professional teaching performance. However, there is little empirical evidence on how the length of teachers' teaching…

Teacher scaffolding is crucial to promote students' cooperative learning processes, but little is known about the cognitive attention underlying teachers' scaffolding behavior. This study aims to investigate the scaffolding behavior teachers exhibit while intervening in students' cooperative learning and to explore the relation between teachers'…

Our contribution argues for some differentiations in the recurring debates about pedagogical tact. To this end, we will proceed in three steps. First we will refer to classical aspects of pedagogical tact such as its intermediate function between general conceptions and the specifics of concrete pedagogical situations. In a second step we will…

This article argues that ethical authorship is essential for the ethical use of artificial intelligence (AI). It examines tensions that historical understandings of authorship have created as instructors and students alike navigate AI technologies.

Digital technology coaches (DTCs) often support teachers with integrating technology into their classroom and instructional program, as well as provide ongoing staff development. To be effective, coaches tend to have specific characteristics for instructional coaching and competencies for educational coaching. We investigated if these…

Large-scale, evidence-based interventions face challenges to program fidelity of implementation. We developed implementation strategies to support teachers implementing an evidence-based HIV prevention program in schools, Focus on Youth in The Caribbean (FOYC) and Caribbean Informed Parents and Children Together (CImPACT) in The Bahamas. We…

Humility, in a variety of forms, has been examined in educational contexts in recent years. However, its association with a particular pedagogical method remains an unexplored area of inquiry. Likewise, social justice and student voice are a concern in international education arenas, including in higher education, but are not usually connected to…

Many of the variables that determine college admission are beyond a student's control, including the academic track they were assigned as early as primary school, a practice often referred to as "ability grouping" or constructing "skills-homogeneous" classes. Even in higher education, students feel the effects of unequal…

To live justice-oriented commitments in teaching practice, approaches spanning Social Justice Teacher Education, the Core Practice Movement, and Context-specific Teacher Preparation might dovetail by identifying "social justice core practices" (SJCPs) novices learn to enact. At the intersection of the situated and critical perspectives…

Teacher behaviors can reflect trauma-sensitive principles through supportive and structured teaching, which involves integrating teacher responsivity with consistent, fair practices. However, students and teachers in racially- and economically-marginalized communities are underrepresented in prior research examining the impact of supportive and…
