The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic meta-review with the goal of documenting the landscape of measures of classroom management in the school-based literature. Our systematic search for systematic reviews and extraction of primary studies in the classroom management research yielded 73 studies for inclusion that captured 76…

The application and development of smart classroom (SC) have improved the teaching quality. The teacher-student interaction (TSI) is the core element of the SC. The research on TSI is insufficient due to the lack of evaluation models. The objective of this study was to construct a TSI evaluation model to guide teachers in building high-quality SC.…

In this latest installment of an ongoing series of "Kappan" articles revealing the power of student-involved classroom assessment FOR learning, Rick Stiggins examines how the emotional dynamics of student success or failure impact each learner's sense of academic confidence or self-doubt moving forward. Those dynamics, he contends, have…

Background: Due to disruptive student behavior, a K-5 urban school developed a problem of practice that focused on creating a classroom management plan and a social-emotional plan for students to regulate their emotions effectively, allowing teachers to execute engaging lessons that increase student engagement. Informal observations conducted by a…

In educational research, teaching quality is extensively studied because of its role of a mediator between teacher characteristics and student learning. However, empirical evidence on differences between video and live scoring of teaching quality is rare. In the present study, thirty lessons from 15 secondary mathematics classrooms in a German…

It is critical to promote solid and long-lasting learning techniques in children and adolescents worldwide, including the most underprivileged ones, to improve various aspects of life. Consequentially, research should identify learning techniques that are beneficial for school-age children and that could be easy and inexpensive to apply in…

Even when using mixed-ability grouping--grouping students so that students with a range of mathematical thinking work together--there is potential to position some students as more capable than others. In this article, the authors describe two approaches to mixed-ability grouping, providing examples of how teachers using those approaches describe…

This research aimed to: 1) study the components and indicators of learning management competency for promoting creative thinking skills among art department teachers, and 2) examine the model fit of these components and indicators with empirical data. The sample consisted of 130 art department teachers from schools under the Provincial…

What they didn't tell you about how to increase engagement and decrease unsettled behaviour. Teachers have long been taught to use different strategies: one for behaviour; one for learning. Start with control to get their attention, then move on to the learning. This isn't working. It's time for a change. Jen Foster brings a new approach. One that…

This research aims to develop an effective model for enhancing teacher development in classroom management within special education centres. The study begins by reviewing existing concepts, principles, theories, and previous research to inform the creation of a comprehensive model. A panel of nine experts evaluated the model's accuracy and…

The authors contend that, although recent research--especially concerning the role of teachers--shows play to be critical for early childhood education, most kindergartens in the United States limit play because of accountability worries. And this is especially true for those kindergartens serving Black and Brown children. To support the…

Professional vision (PV) enables teachers to act competently in classrooms through cognitive processes of noticing, reasoning, and generating alternatives of action. Expert features of applying concepts, focusing on students, drawing inferences, and taking multiple perspectives are also considered a part of PV. PV can be fostered with video-based…

Academic procrastination is a prevalent and pernicious self-regulation failure, which affects students' academic performance, health, and well-being. We conducted a systematic review of the recent (i.e., 2018 and subsequent) literature on the efficacy of interventions designed to reduce academic procrastination in several relevant online…

Although previous research provides insights into how gestures function as a pedagogical tool, relatively little is known about how gesture is related to language, together creating a key meaning-making teaching resource. Drawing on the system of logico-semantic relations in Systemic Functional Linguistic theory and McNeill's description of…

Managing student behavior in special education classrooms can be difficult, particularly with students with social-emotional and behavioral challenges. Effective classroom behavior management strategies maximize academic instruction time and decrease disruptive behavior. Tootling is a multicomponent classwide behavior intervention that involves…
