In 2019, the Rhode Island Department of Education (RIDE), in partnership with the University of Rhode Island (URI), launched the Work-Based Learning for Computer Science (WBL4CS) project through an Education Innovation Research (EIR) grant. The initiative aimed to expand access to computer science (CS) education for high school students,…

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a remedial teaching intervention in improving learners' understanding of trigonometric equations. Using a mixed methods exploratory case study design, a purposive sample of 24 Grade 11 learners from a rural school in the Eastern Cape province participated in the intervention. The research involved…

Background: Concussion-related guidelines appear to be inconsistently implemented in secondary schools in Aotearoa New Zealand. The purpose of this qualitative Participatory Action Research study was to describe key school stakeholders' perceptions of their current concussion management processes. Methods: Seventeen focus groups, two dyad, and…

Despite recent calls to more fully incorporate multimodal perspectives into literacies research, there is still limited scholarship examining how students critically engage in reading activities by drawing on embodied practices. Racially and linguistically minoritized students are particularly disadvantaged by dominant logocentric and…

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) careers remain in high demand, and the United States continues to compete globally to expand its STEM workforce while addressing persistent racial and gender disparities. This study employed structural equation modeling (SEM) with multigroup analyses to examine the relationships among high…

Descriptive correlational research was conducted to discover misconceptions on Rate of Reaction (RR) that impact on Chemical Equilibrium (CE) misconceptions. This research was conducted to 245 eleventh-grade students of High School in Gowa, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, that having been studied the RR and CE topics. Misconceptions data were collected…

The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of an 8-week academic navigational capital group with English language learner (ELL) students. Minimal research exists examining ELL students' acquisition of navigational capital skills (skills needed to navigate and succeed in academic settings) in school. We used a pre- and postintervention…

School climate measures are important tools that assist educators in evaluating the "norms, values, and expectations that support people feeling socially, emotionally and physically safe" (National School Climate Council, 2007, p. 4). Positive school climate is associated with academic performance indicators such as grade point average,…

Teaching through a second language (L2) poses many challenges, as second language learners (SLLs) have fewer linguistic resources in the language of instruction. Scaffolding students' learning is a possible way of overcoming these challenges, but there are few studies on this in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) contexts. The present…

Students' attitude towards a subject is a key indicator of academic performance, therefore its enhancement is imperative for academic success. A sample of 328 grade eleven students was selected using cluster random sampling. Two different study groups; the experimental and control groups, were composed and exposed to the guided inquiry and…

For the socially conscious teacher working in diverse classrooms, conversation can surface and productively engage the politics of difference. Poststructuralist discourse analysis and/or positioning theory have provided insights into the students' subject positions and discourses in such conversations. However, studies are often limited by the use…

Epistemological obstacle is emphasized in mathematics education. Students often have limited students' context of knowledge in understanding trigonometry. Knowing the epistemology obstacle can help a teacher understand the student's misconception. Therefore, this study aimed to identify students' epistemological obstacles of trigonometry and…

The college major choice is a critical decision students make as they progress along their education and career pathways. In addition to defining what programs of study students will take during college, major choice affects students' success and satisfaction. However, the National Center for Education Statistics (2017) reported that within three…

Critical thinking (CT) is a type of convergent thinking explored when students learn mathematics. This study aims to obtain a comprehensive representation of students' mathematical Critical Thinking (CT) abilities, based on the mathematical ability level. Data were obtained from 35 students using CT skills tests and semi-structured in-depth…

Source-based writing is a common but difficult task in history and philosophy. Students are usually taught how to write a good text in language classes. However, it is also important to address discipline-specificity in writing, a topic likely to be taught by content teachers. In order to design discipline-specific writing instruction, research…
