Purpose: The field of communication sciences and disorders (CSD) is among the least diverse health and education professions in the United States (Luther, 2017). Recruitment efforts have increased the presence of racial and/or ethnic minority students in CSD over the past decade, yet there has been no comparable increase in the membership of…

Natural history museums are great places for learning new concepts and enhancing social skills and motivation. However, it is often difficult for teachers to make full use of the museum as a learning environment. Some teachers seem to be more successful than others in crossing the boundaries--they enjoy and value field trips and advocate for them…

We use survey data from three four-year campuses to explore the relationship between academic validation and student outcomes during students' first 3 years in college using structural equation modeling. We examine both a psychosocial outcome (mattering to campus) and an academic outcome (cumulative GPA). We find that both frequency of…

This text explores roles that radical empathy and profound interruptions play in altering prospective teachers' thinking and practices. Linking these concepts, I demonstrate how three teacher candidates drew on intersectional experiences in volunteer work, reading fiction and non-fiction, viewing films of "heroic" teachers, and personal…

Teachers' spatial behaviours in the classroom can strongly influence students' engagement, motivation and other behaviours that shape their learning. However, classroom teaching behaviour is ephemeral, and has largely remained opaque to computational analysis. Inspired by the notion of Spatial Pedagogy, this paper presents a system called 'Moodoo'…

Whether teachers maintain their expectation bias for students over time is crucial for understanding self-fulfilling prophecy effects. However, the stability of teacher expectation bias has been largely ignored in the literature. We examined the stability of teacher expectation bias across a sample of teachers and the change trajectories of…

The author reflects on six dilemmas that teachers and mentors may face during the implementation of project-based learning (PBL): (a) the conflict between student autonomy and teacher control, (b) the belief incongruence between a mentor and a mentee, (c) the gap between an advanced pedagogy and novice teachers, (d) the gap between a mentee's need…

Background: Peer victimization has an adverse effect on academic outcomes. However, longitudinal research on how peer victimization affects access to higher education is lacking. Aims: In this study, we investigated the mechanisms through which peer victimization and teacher support affect aspirations for and enrolment at university 5 years later…

This study explored longitudinal associations between student-teacher closeness in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) at 5 years of age and children's externalising problems at 3, 5 and 8 years, and its potential dependency on teachers' perceived competence regarding children's behavioural and social problems. We applied structural equation…

Supportive relationships between students and their educational faculty and staff can foster positive outcomes such as students' involvement and development. However, research investigating how students perceive the quality of their relationships with educational faculty/staff (i.e., relationship quality) so far remains scarce. This study's aim…

The economics profession lacks diversity and, as a result, interventions have been introduced at the graduate and professional levels to minimize the effect of the "leaky pipeline." In addition, economic educators lack training in classroom management and student interaction, which may lead to underinvestment in fostering diversity,…

This article explores how the three Spanish parties that formed a coalition government at the beginning of 2020 -- (i) the Spanish Social Democratic Party, (ii) the United Left and (iii) Podemos -- organise education for their members. With frame analysis as a theoretical itinerary, the study begins to outline what the parties' schools are about,…

This study aimed to explore the interaction between teachers and young students in terms of their question and answer patterns during science lessons and to investigate whether this changes over the course of an intervention called 'Language as a Tool for learning science' (LaT). It also compared experienced teachers with novices. A total of 16…

This study sought to determine the impact of a highly supported field experience (HSFE) by comparing two groups of preservice elementary teachers (PSETs) all taking the same methods course, from the same instructor, within the same program. Each group was required to complete a 10-hour field experience. One group was in a HSFE while the other…

Positive effects of teacher-student relationships (TSR) have been widely documented. However, fewer studies have explored the determinants of TSR. The present study examined the effect of a possible determinant of TSR whose role has not yet been investigated -- teachers' compassionate love. It also examined the mediating role of teachers'…
