The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of economic capital, culture capital, social capital, social security, and living conditions on children's cognitive ability. However, most studies only focus on the impact of family socio-economic status/culture capital on children's cognitive ability by ordinary least squares regression…

This three-armed randomized controlled trial examined how moral disengagement and social norms account for change in bullying behavior and their potential as targets of anti-bullying components within separate interventions among 1200 French-speaking Belgian elementary students (48% boys, 9-12 year-olds, 57 classes, nine schools) during 2018-2019…

The author identifies six myths that pervade educational thinking about advanced learning and constrain educational opportunities for gifted students. These myths relate to higher-level thinking, differentiated learning outcomes, accelerated work, limitations on other students, standards, and students from low-income backgrounds. The author…

The purpose of this narrative literature review is to provoke new ways of understanding the plethora of research around the role of the SENCo. Specifically, the aim is to use four themes as lenses to explore how SENCo identities are formed, and reformed, by intrinsic and extrinsic motivators. The four themes have been distilled from a list of…

The first macromarketing seminar held in 1976 represented a first attempt to "hack the system" of business schools to bring a societal focus to the teaching of marketing. This effort resulted eventually in macromarketing becoming a major field of the marketing discipline. Today, forces outside the business school are pointing business…

Effective teaching is an important research topic worldwide. This review aims to analyze effective teaching literature in China with respect to general characteristics and conceptional dimensions. Two types of effective teaching literature, empirical studies written in Chinese and written in English, are selected for this review. Stronge's…

Summative assessment data are rarely adapted into instructional decision making. In this project, teachers and researchers work together to identify how teachers use diagnostic data (students' development of common core standards). We analysed students' responses to trimester tests that teachers and researchers modified together using cognitive…

Timelines enhance comprehension and offer a pictorial aid in organising information in a chronological sequence so that growth, change, recurring events, cause and effect, and key events of historical, social, and scientific significance can be better understood. The timelines presented in this document show the journey that mathematics education…

This is a study of teachers transition after a professional development (PD). The purpose was to document and characterize the teachers' experiences as they transitioned toward use of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and more learner-centered teacher practices. The teachers participated in a PD workshop that provided information on the…

"Elementary and Middle School Mathematics" illustrates how children in PreK to 8th grade learn math, and then shows the most effective methods of teaching math using problem-based activities. Examples of real student work and common challenges help you visualize developmentally appropriate mathematics instruction and assessment that…

Reading consists of many interconnected skills. Research recommends that beginning readers focus on a set of basic skills, specifically referred to as the "foundational skills" (National Governors Association Center for Best Practices [NGACBP], Council of Chief State School Officers [CCSSO], 2010). Essential to forming the base for…

Standards-based grading ensures students are graded consistently and fairly based on mastery of objectives versus non-academic reasons, such as participation, behavior, and effort, but implementation of standards-based grading faces many challenges. This narrative qualitative study explored teachers' experiences with and stories about implementing…

The ability of students to perform quantitative analysis is a fundamental aspect of analytical chemistry courses and laboratories. In this laboratory experiment, students quantitatively analyze both liquid and solid samples through the use of internal standard calibration and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. Using a problem-based approach to selecting their…

A problem exists at the local site that classroom practices are not adequately preparing English language learners (ELLs) for academic success in the area of mathematics, and since the implementation of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M), there has been a lack of progress in mathematics proficiency for ELLs. The purpose of…

This article applies a recently published indicator to various types of international education projects to measure their compliance with educational professionalism and international development law and also compares this indicator with the standards checklist currently in use by The Forum on Education Abroad. The tests and comparisons suggest…
