Public relations and strategic communication are offered in communication departments with a field of study largely geared toward professional communicators. The majors place a heavy emphasis on internships, which seem to be more competitive than ever. A class project can jumpstart students' preparation for entry-level positions in the industry by…

One approach to incorporating financial literacy into educational curricula is the integration of it into closely related courses such as mathematics. Research on curriculum development that fosters the integration of mathematics and financial literacy is necessary. This study aims to develop mathematical tasks that are embedded with financial…

Science Recreation Workshops (SRW) are engaging activities intended to create scientific experiences for participants, who play with natural phenomena while they explore, discover, discuss, and learn about them. They take people into a first-hand scientific adventure. SRW's do not demand a lot of resources to develop, that is why SRW's groups can…

Restorative justice is an approach that centers the voices of those most impacted by harm through facilitated dialogue, perspective-taking, and storytelling. Restorative justice and social work have mutually beneficial and overlapping values and interests. The aim of this integrative review was to determine how and in what settings these two areas…

There are many models for structuring peer interactions in the music classroom. From peer mentoring to peer tutoring, to other structured interaction models that have emerged from other areas of education, music teachers have many options when considering how to include structured peer interaction activities. This article describes the various…

We explore how the concept of abstraction, which is central to mathematical activity, can lead to detachment or attachment to land, nature, culture, language, and heritage in Indigenous contexts. We wonder if students detach themselves from mathematics because they feel mathematics asking them to detach themselves from people and places to whom…

Play allows young children to acquire and practice mathematics skills and concepts while engaging in meaningful and enjoyable activities (Bobis, 2010; Reed & Young, 2018). In particular, open-ended play provides children opportunities to discover materials, explore concepts, and solve problems (Rosli & Lin, 2018) and in the process,…

The ability to express scientific concepts in mathematical terms and integrate scientific and mathematical reasoning about a phenomenon is a foundational cognitive process involved in scientific thinking. This process called "blended math-science sensemaking" (MSS) is a desired skill for all science, technology, engineering, and math…

The paper aims to propose an instrument to identify students' metacognitive strategies in mathematical modelling activities. The items were designed from a review regards metacognition and instruments already recognised in literature. This design comprises an instrument that differs from others in which the data were the self-reported students'…

The purpose of this study was to examine mathematics preservice teacher (PST) learning to notice for equity as they participated in an experimental, practice-based methods course. Activities intended to support PST learning included the use of equity-based lenses in video analysis, live lesson observations, and case study analysis. We analyzed…

Around the world, on every continent, and in every country, children play. Though culturally contextualized, play is a global common childhood experience. There are cultural variations in children's play activities, and though play looks and sounds different across the world, there are also commonalities. Though scholars find it difficult to…

Beginning a mathematics lesson involving a challenging task with a carefully chosen preliminary experience is an effective means of activating student cognition. In this article, the authors highlight a variety of preliminary experiences, each with a different structure and form, all designed to support students to more successfully engage with…

The present study examined the association between adolescents' extracurricular activities and bullying perpetration and victimisation. The sample was drawn from the 2016 National Survey of Children's Health dataset. Analyses included descriptive statistics and logistic regression for the early adolescent and middle adolescent groups. Among early…

This study explored the utilisation of GeoGebra as a modelling tool to develop undergraduate engineering mathematics students' conceptual and procedural knowledge of complex numbers. This mission was accomplished by implementing GeoGebra-enriched activities, which provided carefully designed representational support to mediate between students'…

Many leadership educators want to incorporate cultural relevance, cultural responsiveness, and social justice into their work but may be uncertain of how to begin. Others may already be working in culturally relevant leadership learning (CRLL) modalities and deeply desire advice on how to elevate their offerings. Here, the authors provide a brief…
