This study aims to address the limitations of traditional teaching methods and contribute to the development of effective environmental…

Mastery learning -- requiring students to achieve proficiency in a topic before advancing -- is a well-established and effective teaching method. Digital learning systems support this approach by personalizing content sequences, enabling students to focus on practicing topics they have not yet mastered. To achieve this, digital learning systems…

A sense of belonging in mathematics--feeling accepted and valued in the field (Good et al., 2012)--is a powerful predictor of student success. However, many students, particularly those from marginalized backgrounds, often lack this feeling as a result of limited representation in curricula and school cultures (Barbieri & Miller-Cotto, 2021).…

This study investigates the development and implementation of a big data-driven English ecological classroom teaching model, aiming to reform university English instruction in alignment with contemporary technological advancements. The conventional teaching framework, often limited to textbooks and in-class activities, has been shown to…

The research on mathematical argumentation has mainly adopted a dialectic lens which focuses on understanding the abstract and logical development of reasoning in argumentation. However, this approach may have overlooked other key aspects of mathematical argumentation, including the unfolding of the meaning-making experience and process during…

Grappling with uncertainty is an essential element of students' science learning and sense-making processes, yet literature is limited regarding how teachers can facilitate and use student scientific uncertainty as a pedagogical resource in their classrooms. Furthermore, progress on pedagogical practice depends on both the ability to notice one's…

Traditional approaches to intelligence often neglect the diverse cognitive profiles of learners, potentially limiting the inclusivity and effectiveness of educational practices. This review article examines the application of Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) within the context of biology education, with a particular focus on…

Spaced retrieval practice can improve learning but is often underutilized. We hypothesized that providing students with digital flashcards via a spaced repetition app could improve academic performance by increasing use of spaced retrieval practice. In a controlled nationwide quasi-experiment, involving 799 first-year nursing students across 19…

This study examines how in-service teachers of multilingual learners (MLs) utilize teacher research to integrate and reflect on culturally and linguistically responsive pedagogy (CLRP). Through a 12-month professional development (PD) course, part of a broader initiative supported by a National Professional Development grant, teachers engaged in…

Arguments relating moral and character education to the field of physical education are not novel. Despite this, there are few studies dedicated to studying how and why physical education teachers use character education in schools. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to address this literature gap by studying how seven teachers employed…

The aim of the paper is to investigate India's language policy for its deaf and hard-of-hearing community. Although India's language policy has been examined in great detail in existing research, policies for deaf and hard-of-hearing have received little attention by scholars. In light of the scarcity of debate and research on policies for deaf…

This research sought to address three key questions: how EFL instructors in higher education integrated critical thinking (CT) skills into their teaching practices, what challenges they encountered during the integration process, and how EFL students perceived and experienced the impact of this integration. Five instructors from four universities…

The decreasing age at which Taiwanese children begin learning English suggests that Taiwanese society endorses the Critical Period Hypothesis (CPH) and believes that children should learn English as early as possible to ensure their academic or professional success. Consequently, many parents enroll their children in private English language…

This study is a partial extension of a British Council study conducted on the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in English language teaching across many regions of the world. The British Council study can be found on ResearchGate. This current study investigates pre-service teachers' views on the role of artificial intelligence in English…

Technology-enhanced collaborative academic writing (TECAW) in higher education has gained increasing attention due to its potential to enhance students' academic writing skills through interaction, shared authorship, and structured pedagogical support. Framing collaborative academic writing (CAW) as a pedagogical process, this systematic…
