Choral method textbooks include various strategies on when and how to introduce expression in song acquisition including vocal modeling. In two previous studies, participants who learned expressive elements early in a song-learning sequence (infused-expression) performed those elements more accurately than those who learned them at the end of the…

The purpose of this literature review was to synthesize research related to perceptions of choral tone and to provide implications for future research and praxis. Although considerable research exists on the topic of choral tone, choral music professionals have indicated contradictory philosophies of what makes "good" choral tone. To…

This research investigates whether academic integrity can be strengthened through a holistic educative approach that combines compulsory modules on academic integrity, pedagogy that challenges punitive approaches, and an embedded curriculum.

This article explores how arts-based pedagogies give insight into the lives and dreams of students who experience detainment and incarceration. This article begins with an overview of imagination as a framework that the authors used to explore student work. They connect the concept of imagination to research on multiliteracies and arts-based…

Considering the universality of writing struggles faced by both the students and teachers, it is an unexpected observation to find that there are most likely only a dozen or so systematic reviews on the topic. Among these reviews, none so far have focused on identifying and discussing English writing instructional models. This paper systematically…

Although the distinction between explicit and implicit (automatized) knowledge of second or foreign language (L2) is of crucial importance to second language acquisition (SLA) theory and research, it has thus far not been directly applied to L2 pronunciation. The paper attempts to fill this gap by making an initial attempt to illustrate the…

In this study I examine Jean-Luc Nancy's interpretation of the biblical scene of Noli me tangere (Touch me not), focusing on the "Do Not Touch" sign in museums. Nancy analyses the scene where Jesus prohibits Mary Magdalene from touching him after the resurrection. I attempt to explore its correlation with the experiential aspect of…

Early critical thinking and sustainability awareness development is crucial for equipping future generations to handle global issues in an increasingly complicated and interconnected society. This study examined how 9-year-old primary school students applied their knowledge through a collaborative Mystery assignment, demonstrating a Thinking Skill…

We propose inviting the body into the university writing process through somatic pedagogical practices. This study investigates an effort to write from our body and through our body in a course where students used the body as a site of creation. Challenging mind-body dualism and the erasure of bodily ways of knowing, students participated in…

This review addresses the current knowledge on inclusive education suggesting that many studies focus on predetermined groups of disadvantaged learners . This review aims 1) to map the research on inclusive education for all (IEFA) and 2) to assess the consistency of studies in their approach to inclusive education (IE), research methodology and…

Users of technology are becoming younger over the years. Although the current generation of young children is often referred to as "digital natives," this designation primarily reflects their intuitive engagement with digital tools rather than a comprehensive understanding of their responsible use. In contrast, fostering balanced,…

In response to teacher shortages, short-track teacher education programmes have been established for those with academic degrees in mathematics, who often bring their prior professional identities into teacher education.
