Co-written by a teacher educator and his students, this practical resource shares the ways a uniquely positioned graduate course implemented key tenets of Culturally Relevant and Sustaining Pedagogy (CRSP) in their teaching and practice, allowing for the reconnection between mind and body, or "Embodied CRSP." By weaving together…

This paper describes a research collaboration with Humber Museums Partnership, which explored family museum visiting and early language. Drawing from ethnographic observations and continuous audio recordings, this article examines how very young children make sense in museum spaces. We activate Deleuze and Guattari's concept of the refrain…

We report the results of a preregistered classroom experiment (https://aspredicted.org/x25h-d427.pdf) investigating the immediate and long-term effects of interleaved practice for learning spelling rules among German third graders (N = 147). The study also investigated whether instructional guidance--comprising prompts and explanations that…

Purpose: Children with hearing loss show deficits in sequential learning, a form of procedural memory, and often perform poorly on verbal serial recall, a form of declarative memory. The current study examines sequential learning and serial recall in pediatric cochlear implant (CI) users with young ages of implantation. Additionally, it…

Metacognition plays a role in environment learning (EL). When navigating, we monitor environment information to judge our likelihood to remember our way, and we engage in control by using tools to prevent getting lost. Yet, the relationship between metacognition and EL is understudied. In this paper, we examine the possibility of leveraging…

Employing applied theatre techniques of playbuilding, research-grounded scene development, and facilitated workshops has the potential to provide transformative learning. The He-ART-istic Journeys-Heart DIS-ease play is one example that invites learners to experience (living with heart disease). This aesthetic encounter creates a reflective space…

Theories of learning distinguish between elemental and configural stimulus processing depending on whether stimuli are processed independently or as whole configurations. Evidence for elemental processing comes from findings of summation in animals where a compound of two dissimilar stimuli is deemed to be more predictive than each stimulus alone,…

Transactive discussion during collaborative learning is crucial for building on each other's reasoning and developing problem solving strategies. In a tabletop collaborative learning activity, student actions on the interface can drive their thinking and be used to ground discussions, thus affecting their problem-solving performance and learning.…

The Internet has been conducive to English as a foreign language (EFL) students' agency. However, EFL learners' agency does not necessarily make them autonomous learners, although agency and autonomy are interchangeably used. By addressing the link and difference between these two constructs, this qualitative exploratory case study sets out to…

Online strategies designed to enable practical learning were in use prior to the pandemic. Nevertheless, in response to the rapid shift to online delivery during lockdowns, face-to-face practical learning was often postponed and replaced with traditional transmissive and theory-focused modes. This paper reports undergraduate and postgraduate…

A thriving body of literature has identified student voice as being vital to education and literacy development. However, the understanding of multimodal student voice representation is still modest in literacy-based pedagogical practices. Thus, this article presents a study that examined the development of students' multimodal authoring through…

Due to the 'global English bias' in the field of L2 motivation, many motivational constructs have been primarily investigated in relation to learners of English. One of these, international posture, has been recently found to hold some relevance to LOTE students. Despite this, no research has examined comparatively similarities and differences in…

In recent years, the Computer Science and Information Technology programs have experienced growth and achieved immense popularity, increasing the demand for graduates who will become skilled workers. The educational outcomes-based curriculum (OBE) targets that learning must pay attention to one of the Key Performance Indicators (IKU) achievements:…

Active learning is an engaging way of teaching and even experienced professors may not know how to start implementing its techniques to make classes more dynamic. Teaching cases can be a very useful active method of instruction, as an opportunity to assign students roles in the case discussion, centering them as the protagonists of their own…

The pedagogical value and global relevance of heritage education regarding the safeguarding of global tradition and practice for future generations is indisputable. This research aims to investigate the efficacy of integrating a puzzle-based game, with scaffolding strategies, to enhance students' understanding and appreciation of cultural heritage…
