Social work programs are facing the need to gain further clarity about how to leverage instructional strategies specific to the course modality (i.e., traditional, hybrid, online hybrid, and fully online). At its heart, this challenge is an analogical transfer problem: practice instructors must adapt what they do in one modality to new modalities…

Although many neurotypical children acquire untaught word-object relations incidentally from naturally occurring environmental experiences, many children with and without developmental disabilities require specific intervention. This study examined the effects of rotating listener (match and point) and speaker (tact and intraverbal-tact) responses…

This paper discusses how geography's disciplinary ways of thinking can equip teachers "to organize deep geographical learning" about sustainable development in their students. These ways of thinking are based on the subject's core concepts, and the ones selected for discussion in this paper are environment, interconnection and place. The…

Steve Cochrane argues for the need of young people who practice the principles of humane education, and why those principles need to be central to the work of schools worldwide. The priniciples of humane are: (1) Caring about the problems affecting people, animals, and the natural world; (2) thinking critically about the root and systemic causes…

Play-based learning is a combination of rich play and curricular outcomes. When implemented in a classroom, play-based learning has a multitude of positive effects on the students, both academically and social-emotionally. As leaders of a play-based learning classroom, educators must understand the different types of play, how to create an…

Care is foundational to the way we reproduce and transform the world around us. Today, in a time marked by widespread calls for racial and social justice, and simultaneous backlash against these calls, it is imperative that we understand the ways that care circulates and operates within racialized struggle. In this dissertation I engage in this…

If global citizenship education (GCE) is to become a pedagogical approach, it must recognize the embedded moral responsibilities contained in its presumptive domains. I propose a theoretical pedagogy that acknowledges the moral dimensions of GCE wherein the process is what matters, not a pre-identification of values that should be accepted as…

Academics is not the sole component of school readiness; rather, it is a compilation of children's physical, social--emotional, language, and cognitive development (National Association for the Education of Young Children [NAEYC], 2009; National Education Goal Panels, 1997). The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC,…

This paper goes beyond -- transcends -- "pedagogy as justice," recognizing that justice, particularly in these present times, may not be enough. Its wager is with "pedagogies of and for life"; pedagogies that plant and cultivate, that push and enable other modes of living, despite the capitalist-modern-colonial-racist system,…

This article is an exploration of the potential of a more purposeful application of criticality in undergraduate classrooms. Conventional pedagogy, often lecture-based, does not prepare students well for life, a career, or service toward the common good. A more critical approach in the classroom stimulates critical thinking, critical…

I here read the Iranian film "Hit the Road" through the eyes of the French philosopher Alain Badiou. In doing so, I hope to illuminate the triadic link between cinema, philosophy and "paideia" (ethical-political education). To explore, I adopt a philosophical methodology with the double ambition to reveal the latent pedagogies…

Uncertainty complicates the issue of climate change. Climate change education should therefore help students to address uncertainty. The question, then, is how to educate students about that which is 'in the dark'. Here, we might find a role for games as a resource for climate change education. This study explores which climate change-related…

In this article, we entangle with Aaron Kuntz's book "The Responsible Methodologist," extending the conversation beyond research into the realms of teaching, learning, and daily lived practices as twenty-first century academics. Kuntz advocates for parrhesiastic living and inquiry, defined as truth-telling and intervention toward ends of…

This article reports on a literature review of 32 research articles related to the provision of schooling to students within hospitals. In particular, the research interest was focused on evidence in the literature to describe and characterize the pedagogical practices developed in the educational context of the hospital in terms of their…

A common problem for new homeschoolers is understanding how to choose and implement specific educational approaches. In response, I conducted a qualitative content analysis on key texts representative of popular homeschooling approaches, including The Well-Trained Mind (classical), Home Education (Charlotte Mason), and Teach Your Own…
