This systematic review synthesizes the effects of mathematics vocabulary interventions on the mathematics outcomes of students with mathematics difficulty (MD) in Grades K through 12. We evaluated methodological rigor using three indicators: research design, implementation fidelity, and instruction in the counterfactual. Six peer-reviewed studies…

This paper offers practical, research-informed strategies for postsecondary writing instructors, particularly those who are new to the field or seeking fresh approaches to classroom engagement. Drawing on frameworks such as Cognitive Load Theory, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and culturally sustaining pedagogy, the strategies are designed…

Although just-in-time teaching (JiTT) has proven effective in Western settings, its implementation in Asian nursing curricula, within China's distinctive pedagogical landscape, remains insufficient. Rain Classroom facilitates communication between students and teachers via smartphones or computers; however, its effective application to JiTT…

Chemical Engineering Projects is a last-year course of the Chemical Engineering bachelor's degree taught at Autonomous University of Madrid. Project-Based Learning (PBL) stands as an ideal teaching methodology to prepare students for this multicriteria and complex context by developing representative cases of the Chemical Industry. In this work,…

Despite chemistry's recognized importance to multiscale industrial and environmental processes, first-year undergraduate chemistry is often regarded as comprising a collection of unconnected topics with little relevance to everyday life. Implementing systems thinking into the chemistry curriculum can help to contextualize chemistry learning and…

Community-college professors possess knowledge in distinct disciplines and have varied experiences that they encompass in their college classrooms. Additionally, creating effective environments for teaching and learning require these assets from instructors to fulfill their curriculum needs. Teaching is a multidimensional and complex activity that…

Although zoos have an increasingly important role to play in educating the public about conservation and inspiring pro-conservation behaviour, they are not firmly established as leaders of conservation education. A multitude of logistical challenges and methodological limitations in zoological education research are contributory factors to this.…

The purpose of this research is to determine the quality of the digital stories developed by the primary school teacher candidates (PSTC) for primary school mathematics teaching and their experiences in the digital storytelling (DST) production processes. The study group of the research, designed as a case study, consisted of 30 PSTC. The data of…

Activism and engagement with real-world climate crises, within particular contexts, are prerequisites for learning about climate justice. I draw on my experience as an imbedded activist researcher living and learning through two recent 'crises' in Cape Town, to deepen my understandings of 'climate justice'. I followed a case study approach to…

It is critical that pre-service teachers have exposure to practice in order to be successful in their future classrooms. This article describes a step-by-step process of implementing mixed-reality simulation (real-time interaction with avatars, similar to what one would find in a video game) in teacher preparation courses in order to provide…

Which modes of information literacy instruction (ILI) work best in asynchronous online courses? Recent national trends and COVID-19 have made it critical to answer this question, but there is little research comparing different modes of ILI specifically in asynchronous contexts. This multiyear study employed five different modes of ILI in…

The implementation of peace education in the university environment has not yet found the right technical implementation, so the main goal in peace education has not been achieved, especially the application in the university environment. Therefore, this research aims to determine the general perception of board games as a media of peace education…

This paper addresses the pedagogical challenges when dealing with the education of violence for young children. Drawing upon personal teaching experience and wider critical engagements, it makes the case for a broader understanding of critical interventions that recognizes the political importance of the arts and humanities. Key here is to account…

This study evaluates the effectiveness of inquiry-oriented instruction in introductory linear algebra classes by comparing the performance of students who learned introductory linear algebra concepts in inquiry-oriented settings (TIMES students) with the students who attended other linear algebra classes (Non-TIMES students). We used the…

Teacher noticing can be an important element in improving teaching and students' mathematical success. While the focus of the international project "Learning from Lessons" was on teacher learning, in this paper we report what mathematics teachers noticed and claimed to learn through the process of planning, teaching, and reflecting on…
