Social-emotional learning (SEL) has become an important topic in education. SEL is also important in physical education (PE). The nature of PE has students learning in the affective, cognitive, and psychomotor domains, thus providing many opportunities for SEL. And who facilitates SEL? The PE teacher has the opportunity to provide games,…

Background: Dataset skills are used in STEM fields from astronomy to zoology. Few fields explicitly teach students the skills to analyze datasets, and yet the increasing push for authentic science implies these skills should be taught. Purpose: The overarching motivation of this work is to understand authentic science learning of STEM dataset…

Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) is a well-known framework in the field of educational technology. However, there is a dearth of studies that examine the impact of teachers' TPACK on the acceptance of Online Teacher Professional Development (OTPD). This study aimed to examine if TPACK affected secondary school mathematics…

The following review examines the potential of Project Based Learning (PBL) as an instructional practice to uplift the engagement, motivation and academic achievement of low SES students in mainstream schools. To understand the impact of PBL on low SES students, the literature reflects that whilst some positives of PBL as an effective…

This paper examines a multi-faceted workplace simulation project as a curriculum design strategy to address the expanding core competencies that constrained accounting programmes must incorporate. The problem-based learning simulation incorporates technical content with communication and cross-cultural skills competencies. Using Q methodology,…

For this study, Mursion TeachLivE™ simulation afforded virtual microteaching opportunities for elementary prospective teachers (PTs) enrolled in online mathematics method courses over two years. We assert that virtual microteaching (i.e., leading student-centered discussion after problem solving) using customized Mursion simulation coupled with…

In 2017, the mathematics assessments that are part of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) program underwent a transformation shifting the administration from paper-and-pencil formats to digitally-based assessments (DBA). This shift introduced new interactive item types that bring rich process data and tremendous opportunities to…

The dissonance between teachers' substantial effort to provide feedback and students' under-engagement with feedback has been consistently reported in higher education. A contributing factor to this disparity students' lack of feedback literacy, however, has been under-researched. This case study of two Chinese undergraduate students therefore…

Gender equity in Australian schooling is no longer the policy focus that it once was. Within the contemporary secondary schooling system, teachers can find it challenging to enact feminist pedagogies. Using a narrative approach, we explore the experiences of two secondary teachers in Queensland. These teachers articulate the realities of using…

The current randomized control trial evaluated the effectiveness of a new social-emotional learning (SEL) program, I Can Succeed for Preschools (ICS-PS). ICS-PS aims to improve preschoolers' social/interpersonal, emotional, and academic skills in an integrative way, focusing on children's core executive functions (EFs). The various components of…

Effective lesson planning promotes good teaching and the implementation of curriculum policy. Lesson planning enables teachers to determine appropriate lesson objectives, teaching and learning activities, and teaching methods. Effective lesson planning stimulates teachers to evaluate their instructional strategies and to reflect on how to improve…

The authors of this research project developed a survey to gather information from graduate students about the experiences using a virtual synchronous platform, called Adobe Connect. While the format of the virtual classroom should encourage robust discussion, the authors found this not to be the case in the online virtual synchronous courses in…

Technology and new digital media tools can enhance student learning; however, the opposite also can be true. Abstaining from technology and digital media can help students understand how such technology influences consumer behavior and how marketers may use it. This paper describes the purpose, design, and methods of an unplugged class assignment.…

This article investigates the language learning desire of multilingual tourism workers. The data were drawn from two sites in Nepal: an English for occupational purposes class and workplace interactions during treks. The article shows that the male tourism workers use their claims of heterosexual relationships with foreign female tourists as…
