This study explores structural relations among learning environment, achievement goals and reading achievement in China. The sample contains 12,058 Chinese students from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2018 study. Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling (Multilevel SEM) is used for data analysis. The results indicate that…

In "Transforming Teaching Through the Cycle of Care: A Comprehensive Guide to Empowering Education Through Relationships, Listening, Thinking, and Responding," author Mona Beth Zignego introduces a groundbreaking model that reshapes the way educators approach their profession. Drawing from decades of experience as a teacher, mentor, and…

Although the COVID-19 pandemic required schools and districts to quickly pivot to a remote and hybrid learning system of education, some stakeholders benefited in this new model of learning. Through this project, R1CC supported two district teams in self-identifying remote and hybrid learning strategies and integrating those strategies more…

An inequitable distribution of resources and opportunities for marginalized students (i.e., opportunity gaps) leads to challenges in identifying effective study behaviors, metacognition, and academic help-seeking in higher education. While students benefit when these skills are taught explicitly through co-curricular workshops and courses, these…

Although various studies advocate for the integration of information and communication technologies in education, the forced digitization caused by the pandemic has yielded contradictory results on student learning. Conversely, research has shown that when students manage ICT, they achieve better learning outcomes but when teacher-centered…

This study explored elementary teachers' (N = 26) development as novice Elementary Mathematics Specialists (EMSs). They worked in 21 urban-situated schools in the United States that served historically marginalised students. Professional learning experiences aimed to prepare them as effective and equitable mathematics teachers and teacher leaders…

Using student-centered pedagogies can greatly improve student outcomes compared to lecture-based instruction. One of these outcomes--students' sense of belonging--is associated with increased retention and motivation and is necessary for improving equity and inclusion. Although many methods may support belonging in the classroom, it is unclear…

More than twenty years have passed since the National Reading Panel (NRP) (2000) report attempted to answer the question: What works best in reading instruction? According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), reading scores (2022) show that a significant number of fourth and eighth graders are still struggling with reading…

This qualitative Case Study explored Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Technical and Vocational Training Institute English teachers' perceptions and practices of learner-centered approaches. Data were collected from interviews, a focus group discussion, and classroom observations involving 12 participants. Findings indicated positive views…

Background/purpose: This study argues the prospects of simulations and policy briefs as signature international relations (IR) pedagogies by examining their potential benefits in region-focused case study subjects such as the Southeast Asian Regional Dynamics course. In doing so, it looks back to the need for creativity and student-centered…

The recommendation of courses in an online educational system is done using different factors that include course length, duration, and learning material information. The course design is based on the instructor's teaching style, which may not necessarily correspond with the various learning preferences of students. Matching the learning style of…

This study explored if generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT can generate full lessons plans that are actually useful for real classrooms and meet the quality standards teachers and students deserve. The authors share how their teacher educator participants rated each type of lesson, what they preferred, and what the results…

Background/purpose: Since teachers' self-efficacy (TSE) beliefs influence the instructional practices used in the classroom, investigating TSE beliefs in using learner-centred instructional practices may inform research, policy, and practice. Therefore, this study aimed to validate a survey questionnaire to measure science and mathematics…

Background/purpose: The research was conducted to explore how digital transformation can enhance LLCT teaching quality by integrating advanced technologies, improving interactivity, and fostering critical thinking among cadres. The main purpose is to analyze the necessity, current status, challenges, and solutions for digital transformation in…

While discussions surrounding education for sustainable development (ESD) are diverse, most scholars and policy makers view student-centered learning (SCL) as axiomatic. In contrast, we argue that promoting SCL potentially stymies educational contributions to sustainability by extending a culturally specific belief in ontological individualism. We…
