Data-driven platforms with rich data and learning analytics applications provide immense opportunities to support collaborative learning such as algorithmic group formation systems based on learning logs. However, teachers can still get overwhelmed since they have to manually set the parameters to create groups and it takes time to understand the…

Invitational Education and literature circles elevated learning in this longitudinal qualitative study as undergraduate teacher candidates collaborated on digital projects. Multimodal instruction promoted innovative collaboration to lift learning and success to new levels in a university methods course. Through an intentionally inviting…

Teaching children to read has been one of the primary functions of education systems throughout history; however, not all children are adequately prepared for reading success.

Reading-while-listening may be especially well suited for young language learners because of the multimodality provided in many graded readers aimed at this age group (ie., the presence of oral and written text and illustrations). This study compares a group of students who were exposed to 18 sessions of reading-while-listening with a group…

Poverty and trauma impact student brain development, health, and behavior. The stressors of poverty (lack of nutritious food, unstable housing, etc.) and traumatic events can put students in a "fight" or "flight" mode. Operating from such places prevents students from accessing higher-order thinking and negatively impacts…
