Social scientists know little about the experiences of transgender and nonbinary (TGNB) parents and their children's development. In this study of 138 transgender parents (age M = 35.28 years; 86.2% White/European American) with binary (52.9%) and nonbinary (47.1%) gender identities, we explore the links between family processes and young…

Student mental health in the United Kingdom (UK) remains as key priority on the agenda of many Higher Education (HE) institutions. Current mandatory education in the UK provides guidance around supporting the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people, acknowledging that much of the origins of psychological distress and mental…

This research pinpoints the barriers UK early years (EY) leaders face in accessing digitally mediated leadership development. Furthermore, we consider initiatives to disrupt digital exclusion and ensure more equitable access to professional learning opportunities. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic catalysed an upsurge in the use of digitally…

This article traces the evolution of English Language Teacher Education (ELTE) in Colombia over the past six decades. It critically examines how foreign-established methodologies and policies have shaped it, often ignoring local sociocultural realities. This influence incorporates diverse knowledge systems, practices, and processes of being and…

Free access to powerful generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in schools has left educators and system leaders grappling with how to responsibly respond to the consequent challenges and opportunities that this new technology poses. This paper examines the priorities and challenges that senior Australian educational leaders identify with relation…

Based on self-determination theory, this study examines the added value of video-based discussion, which is included in a need-supportive training programme, on novice teachers' motivating style and students' engagement throughout a school year. Twenty-four teachers in the treatment condition attended a need-supportive training programme including…

Objective: Children born preterm are at an elevated risk of developmental challenges, often exhibiting a distinct "preterm behavioral phenotype" characterized by particular attention difficulties. This review focuses on examining the phenotypical attention profile in preterm children aged 5 to 11 years, considering both clinical and…

While Formative assessment (FA) has been researched exponentially, little is known about FA practice from pre-service teacher to novice teacher and their implementation in real teaching context. The current study attempts to fill this gap by exploring how two novice EFL teachers implement FA activities in the Chinese K-12 context. Data were…

This book explores the rapidly expanding world of cross-border education. As international student numbers have surged from 1.6 million in 2000 to over 6.4 million in 2022, transnational education (TNE) has become a transformative force in global higher education. This volume delves into how universities cross borders to deliver education,…

A prior randomized trial found a school social intervention yielded significantly better outcomes (social and autism features) immediately following intervention compared to typical school programming (services-as-usual [SAU]) for children on the autism spectrum. In that study, children in the SAU condition subsequently completed a summer social…

Choosing between multiple graduate programs involves more than assessing academics or rankings. This article offers a holistic framework for decision-making, emphasizing academic fit, support networks, and alignment with values. Through practical advice and personal stories from students and faculty, we encourage readers to consider their…

This study aimed to measure the interpersonal skills of primary and secondary school teachers and their correlations with in-service training programs within the context of the mentoring system, using a sample of 720 from China. Results show that these teachers' interpersonal skills remain at a high level, with the mean score for Self-Disclosure…

Mixed reality simulations such as TeachLivE and Mursion have been increasingly utilised to prepare teachers for inclusive classrooms. The use of mixed reality simulations, which combine elements of both virtual and augmented reality, offers immersive and interactive experiences that can enhance teacher training in various ways. These simulations…

Design problems are often ill-structured as the requirements are broadly defined and have multiple correct solutions. Experts solve such problems by applying various cognitive and metacognitive skills before the formal specifications and solution designs are documented. Novices often need help solving ill-structured design problems as they lack…

This study investigates the beliefs and practices of secondary school mathematics teachers in Malta regarding the potential of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), particularly through tools like ChatGPT, in teaching, using the TPACK framework. Through a case study methodology involving pre- and post-professional development (PD) session…
