Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) teach undergraduates directly, and many are future faculty, making it particularly important for them to be trained in using evidence-based instructional practices. We implemented and assessed a teaching professional development program for 19 biology GTAs aimed to help them develop their teaching perspectives…

Grounded in Social Cognitive Theory and Self-Determination Theory, this study examines the relationship between teacher self-efficacy and motivational teaching styles in the classroom using a sample of 625 Portuguese teachers. Participants completed the Portuguese version of the Situations-in-School (SIS) questionnaire and the Teacher…

Purpose: Knowledge entrepreneurship encourages students to apply their knowledge and skills to societal, digital and ecological challenges -- not only just in business but also in careers and social contribution. This study aimed to validate training that promotes using education-derived knowledge to address real-world issues and build career…

With the increasing integration of artificial intelligence in education, understanding how teachers' innovative behaviors shape their digital competence and well-being has become a critical yet underexplored area in teacher development research. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of innovative behaviors of new teachers (=5 years)…
