The main objectives of this study were to determine the percentage of teachers applying the Sport Education (SE) model in a central region of Spain and to identify the features these teachers perceived they were using when applying it. As a secondary objective, an attempt was made to respond to the differences in the application of the model…

Professional development is important for all teachers to improve the quality of teaching. This study is aimed to investigate the trends of professional development strategy and learning outcome in 2015-2019. A systematic review was used in analyzing 267 articles published between 2015 and 2019 in the Teaching and Teacher Education. The findings…

Focusing on primary school principals' espoused strategies for developing social capital over their early years in the principal's office, we show that investing in social capital was a core challenge during their formative years.

Despite the numerous attempts to engage teachers on a practical level with evidence-informed pedagogies, there is little empirical research that maps the journey, from the inception to the implementation and practical applications, of a research centre within a school with the aim of embedding evidence-informed practice within the school. This…

Updating mastery of mathematics scholarly knowledge is vital for mathematics teachers' professional development in Indonesia. External transposition refers to the transposition of mathematics scholarly knowledge to the school curriculum. During the COVID-19 pandemic, online learning becomes the primary strategy for strengthening the external…

We, as two instructors in Business and Education, sought to explore the research question: is student learning impacted when instructors engage in peer-to-peer mentoring focused on improving understanding of experiential education and active learning in the post-secondary classroom?

The enactment of a large-scale, long-term professional development initiative designed to enhance participants' knowledge base by influencing their identity trajectories as mathematics instructors is complex. Effectively influencing participants' trajectories could be enhanced by understanding the nature of participants' goal structures,…

Running a secondary school science department is one of the most complex and diverse leadership roles that exists in schools, particularly when compared to other middle leadership roles. The workplace health and safety responsibilities, in particular, has some very real legal (and human) consequences when science leaders do not understand their…

To better align teacher learning with teachers' learning needs, teachers' sense-making of an innovation during which teachers experimented with differentiated instruction was studied during two school years. Using answers to a questionnaire, 15 teachers' sense-making processes were characterised by three types of search for meaning: assimilation,…

A wealth of literature exists that describes the process of knowledge transfer (KT) as activities, interactions and mechanisms that foster the dissemination, application, and contextualisation of acquired learning into practice. However, little of this literature addresses the idiosyncratic nature of early childhood education and care contexts…
