This study investigated preservice elementary science teachers' TPACK development throughout a science teaching method course. The pretest-posttest control group was used in the study. At the end of the study, a self-reported TPACK measure was administered to the experimental (n=26) and control (n=23) groups. The experimental group learned about…

Lesson Study is an internationally recognised professional development approach for teachers. This case study explores the impact of implementing Lesson Study in the early grades of a South African primary school, pertinently targeting early childhood mathematics teachers. The evidence suggests that Lesson Study has the potential to positively…

This paper investigates how ESD is recontextualised in pedagogic practice in geography teaching in Hanoi, Vietnam, with the case study in two schools. Empirical materials for this study include video recordings and observations of 15 geography lessons conducted between 2016 and 2019. The lessons were selected based on the areas where the teachers…

The aim of this study is to evaluate the classroom teacher candidates' metaphorical perceptions about the mathematics course through the visuals they create. The sample of the study consists of 36 classroom teacher candidates studying at a state university in Istanbul. The case study, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was used as…

When mathematics teachers plan lessons, they interact with curriculum materials in various ways. In this paper, we draw on Brown's (2009) "Design Capacity for Enactment" framework to explore the practice of "adapting" curriculum materials in the case of a Singapore secondary mathematics teacher. Problems from the textbook used…

Planning is an essential part of the preparation and implementation of the teaching process. Designing and planning education is an important part of the complex professional competencies of teachers, which were the subject of several years of research carried out at the University of Constantine the Philosopher in Nitra. Scientific research of…

STEM is becoming widespread as an education model in many countries today, and it has been included in the curriculum in our country, and the need for teachers trained in this field has emerged. The purpose of this study, in which the case study method, one of the qualitative research methods, is used, is to examine the skills of Physics-Chemistry…

In this paper, an application of open-ended textual feedback is presented as a tool to evaluate the perceptions and needs of teachers tasked with implementing computational thinking in the K-12 curriculum. Semantic analysis tools, including sentiment analysis and thematic analysis, facilitated the identification of common themes in openended…

Purpose: Engaging students in environmental citizenship to promote education for sustainability (EfS) as an explicit goal of academic courses is not common, notwithstanding wide consensus on its importance. Collaborative learning has rarely been investigated using action research methods in the context of environmental citizenship in higher…

Museums have long played an important role in the support of learning, yet less is known about the role of museums in supporting preservice teacher learning in the field of literacy education. In this qualitative study, the authors' report on how a partnership with a local art museum, as a space of hybridity, extended preservice teacher's learning…

Conducted in a Chinese university, this study tracked eight students' changes in their beliefs and practices of translanguaging when developing academic literacies throughout a 14-week English for Academic Purposes (EAP) course, where translanguaging pedagogy was systematically planned and implemented. Data were collected from classroom…

To ensure that our students can compete in a global economy, successful teaching and learning of mathematics must become a priority within our schools. However, schools continue to track or group students by ability, which, in turn, systematically leaves students behind. Detracking will create a school system that provides both equity and…

This formative paper reviews the recent expansion in online teacher education programmes for "Education for Sustainable Development" (ESD) in southern Africa. The research informs the design of resource-based learning. An activity systems approach and a preliminary mapping of the design features for online learning for ESD enabled us to…

This article investigates multidisciplinary teaching practices through models of General Didactics. Multidisciplinary education is gaining interest on international and national levels through policy reforms. Research on multidisciplinary teaching practices is often descriptive and there is a lack of theories to support teachers. General Didactics…

This article offers methodological insights and tools to those engaged in design-based research (DBR) seeking to advance equity-oriented learning and outcomes through co-design. We respond to recent scholarship that points to the inseparability between the assumptions we hold about society and those we hold about learning, and consider how such…
