Engaging with learner errors in mathematics classrooms is an important aspect of teacher pedagogy which can support learner identification with mathematics. This study examined the opportunities that teachers provided for the construction of learner identities based on how the teachers spoke about and interacted with learner errors in two…

This study explored the relationship between student perceptions of transactional distance between themselves and their teachers and their sense of community presence as measured by the Community of Inquiry Questionnaire (Arbaugh et al., 2008), use of self-regulated learning skills as measured by the Online Student Learning Questionnaire (OSLQ)…

Undergraduate science students face immense pressure, both internally and externally, to achieve certain grades. Grade-focused interactions between students and instructors have anecdotally been reported to be increasing. However, no empirical study has yet evaluated students' grade perceptions or the prevalence of these interactions. If we want…

We argue that progress in the area of research on mathematics teacher responses to student thinking could be enhanced were the field to attend more explicitly to important facets of those responses, as well as to related units of analysis. We describe the Teacher Response Coding scheme (TRC) to illustrate how such attention might play out, and…

Background: Recent research emphasizes the role of the classroom context in promoting self-regulation development. However, the results are equivocal. Additionally, research tends to focus on studying the two extremes of classroom contexts (e.g., teacher fully involved vs. teacher absent during a task), which does not represent the everyday…

Student evaluation of teaching (SET) is applied in the vast majority of universities and higher education institutions. They are used to design professor training programs, evaluate teaching performance, and show evidence of performance to different stakeholders. SET surveys typically include an open-ended question which is not always considered…

This mixed-method research study aims at an analysis of the role of teaching styles in the development of school alienation and behavioral consequences. Applying an in-depth design, this study combines a quantitative panel study, a student survey (grades 5-6), and qualitative focus groups with Luxembourgish primary school students (grade 6).…

Although instructional videos with on-screen instructors have become prevalent in various learning contexts, their effect has been questioned because of mixed findings in the literature. This meta-analysis study aimed to elucidate the overall effect of instructor-present videos on learning, cognitive load, motivation, and social presence and to…

Many teachers struggle to implement behavioral interventions in the classroom with sufficient treatment integrity. One way to support teachers' intervention implementation is through bug-in-the-ear (BITE) training, a training format in which a school-based consultant provides teachers real-time prompts and immediate performance feedback as…

This paper presents the results of a 2021 exploratory investigation concerning factors that influence online learner reticence toward the application of corrective feedback relating to the writing style sanctioned by the American Psychological Association. The research question for the qualitative case study explored reasons for a disinclination…

Students who exhibit externalizing behaviors may impede learning in the classroom and lead to cycles of negative teacher-student interactions. Positive relationships among students, peers, and educators serve as a protective factor against childhood adversity and are a predictor of academic, social, and behavioral outcomes. By incorporating…

This study aims to explore the relationships between different types of student engagement and moral reasoning development among U.S. college students. Using the Wabash National Study of Liberal Arts Education, a longitudinal dataset, and applying fixed-effect and random-effects models, the results indicate that various types of student…

Background: Although large-scale research over the last 15 years demonstrates the positive effects of Black teachers for Black students on various student outcomes, these studies focus on average effects. This leaves space to examine classroom practices to detail how the positive effects may be realized through the everyday interactions between…

This study aims to use LMS log data to suggest a way to understand CoI constructs. Students' interactions in Moodle components were weighted for indicators of cognitive, teaching and social presences. Traces reflecting students' online interactions were obtained from the Moodle LMS and analyzed through learning analytics techniques. The data is…

The student evaluation of teaching is a common practice in the business schools of most colleges and universities. Currently, over 99% of business schools use student evaluations to measure teaching performance, but the honesty of student responses has been questioned. Prior research has indicated that student evaluations can contain answers the…
