Purpose: To assess the inclusivity of on-farm demonstration across Europe, in relation to age, gender, and geographical location of participants. Methodology: The paper is based on a survey of 1162 on-farm demonstrators (farmers and organisations) and three supra-regional workshops. Findings: Overall, on farm-demonstrations were found to be…

In Victoria, Australia, the transition from preschool to compulsory school education is impacted by systemic disconnections in organisation, pedagogical thinking and curricula. These disconnections can create discontinuities in children's experiences, and continuity of learning. At a policy level, attempts have been made to build cooperative…

Educational organizations have expressed an interest in Cultural Relevant Pedagogy (CRP) as the guiding pedagogical framework. The increased interest in CRP is promising and raises questions and challenges about implementation. Educational organizations must intentionally implement CRP. My approach to professional development is to ensure that…

Background: When a child sustains an acquired brain injury (ABI), the impact extends to significant environments in their life, including school. Educator knowledge of ABI can influence a child's success with academic and social reintegration. An assessment of educator ABI knowledge was conducted to determine what information they require to…

Many research results show that students often highlight "mixed-type" reasoning when tackling problematic situations and problems. This reasoning is based on the simultaneous use of common-sense and mere descriptions of facts, perceived as sufficient to build an "explanation" of observed or proposed situations and problems.…

Many physics teachers have experienced the challenges of implementing the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in their high school curricula. These standards, based upon the Framework for K-12 Science Education, were intended to shift science instruction towards an interdisciplinary focus on three-dimensional learning, phenomena anchored…

In the current study, we investigate the implementation of a musical workshop in an early childhood education setting. The workshop is based on a shared space for musical creativity (the Active Musical Room) comprising six different musically relevant objects, which toddlers were free to explore and play with. Inspired by Delalande's…

Computational skills are increasingly important for conducting research in the agricultural and natural sciences. However, barriers to training availability and accessibility have left many life scientists under-prepared. To address these challenges, we developed a workshop series led by graduate students to cover topics relevant to research needs…

Preliminary empirical research conducted by the leading author has shown that design students using biological analogies, or models across different contexts, often misinterpreted these, intentionally or unintentionally, during design. By copying shape or form without integrating the main function of the mimicked biological model, students failed…

This study aimed to explore the effect of peer coaching on science teachers' practice and their students' scientific competencies. The mixed method approach and static group comparison design were adopted. The participants in this study consisted of four science teachers and 132 high school students. The results showed that the students in the…

This paper reflects on The Maroon Project, a series of poetry and performance workshops at the Iziko Slave Lodge Museum with a group of previously-incarcerated 'Coloured' men. The project facilitated a process of Spillerian interior intersubjectivity toward a self-authorship that could 'speak flesh' by placing the carceral system under scrutiny…

This study is about an innovative project designed to address the educational process of non-face-to-face learning in school. The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the school-home learning clinic project of Pandayan Elementary School in the province of Bulacan, Philippines. A descriptive research design was used in this…

The purpose of this study was to explore what role collaborative professional learning may have on teachers' collective efficacy when confronted with pedagogical change. Academic standards introduced between 2010 and 2014 included new content-specific communicative practices including discipline-specific language, discursive methods, and ways of…

In recent years, there have been efforts by educators and policymakers to address disparities in the use of suspensions and expulsions. These students are at risk for further academic difficulties, successive suspensions, school drop-out, unemployment, and arrests. To address these concerns, the use of evidenced-based behavior supports are being…

This report, the fifth in the "On Shared Equity Leadership series," explores ways to build capacity for the work of shared equity leadership (SEL) in higher education. SEL is a leadership approach that scales diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work and creates culture change by connecting individual and organizational transformation.…
