Teachers' teaching styles play a crucial role in students' creativity. However, previous studies have focused only on variable-centered research methods that presuppose teachers to be of a particular type, which does not correspond to real-life contexts in which they teach. Therefore, this study will use a person-centered approach, latent profile…

In this article, we examine how thinking with affect theory offers fertility within higher education studies to see and do teaching and learning differently. For many educators in universities, the idea that teaching is a cognitive process of information transmission is still taken-for-granted. These beliefs are visible through the persistence of…

High-quality teaching is vital for accommodating the individualised learning needs of diverse students. However, compared with specific explicit teaching practices, teaching styles that determine their use of teaching methods have received much less attention. This study investigated the contributions of inclusive education teachers' work…

Planning lessons and in-the-moment improvising during enactment of the plan are two central activities inherent to the practice of teaching. To what extent are these pursuits conflicting or inconsistent? What are the characteristics of improvisation during teaching and what are teachers' possible stances on it? We discuss these questions based on…

Integrating intended learning outcomes (ILOs) in educational frameworks has proven to be an essential strategy for enhancing teaching effectiveness and student learning across various disciplines. ILOs serve as precise statements outlining the knowledge and competencies that students should acquire by the end of a course or lesson, functioning as…

Continuous revision policies provide sizable benefits to students, though one previously unexplored avenue of research is how such policies can help students develop a growth mindset. For the purposes of this article, a "continuous revision policy" is one in which students can revise their work on a rolling basis up until a predetermined…

Effective instruction is vital for quality education in Kenya, with learners' success mainly dependent on structured methods like the five-stage lesson plan (5-SLP). Nonetheless, the effectiveness of instruction may differ depending on the demographic and professional attributes of the teachers. Although the value of planning for content delivery…

The debate about the ethics of belief is a classic and it has given rise to wide-ranging debates in epistemology, the philosophy of language, the philosophy of mind, as well as in ethics. In epistemology, the question is what the norms of belief are -- should one believe what is true, what is well-evidenced, what is pragmatic or what? -- and this…

Purpose: This paper responds to two questions: (a) What are the possibilities and tensions associated with using arts-based methods to support research with children and young people in physical education (PE)? and (b) How can the pedagogical attributes of embodiment in PE inform research with children and young people? Method: Three PE…

This article explores differences between women's and men's views on teaching and learning in undergraduate computer science studies at a Canadian university. The research focuses on perceptions and experiences about learning activities and teaching computer science and how students and teachers view these aspects as valuable for these activities.…

Dual enrollment--a program in which high school students take college classes, earning credit for both--is growing at a rapid pace across America's high schools and community colleges. While dual enrollment can help students fulfill high school graduation requirements and simultaneously make progress toward a postsecondary degree, some student…

This conceptual paper sets out the community-of-inquiry framework from a distributed perspective. It proposes that considering teaching presence, social presence and cognitive presence from a distributed perspective allows the broadening of the presences to consider the way in which participants, content and tools maintain and advance these…

This study explored how elementary teachers identified and adapted their personal experiences, or lack of them, to address social issues that students face in classrooms. The study involved six elementary school teachers. Using ethics of care and justice theories, the findings show that teachers use their own experiences to help them make…

Given the potential impact of introductory science laboratories on postsecondary students' science learning, careful thinking is needed about how to support teaching assistants (TAs) to create opportunities for their students to reason about science. Research suggests that teachers are best positioned to improve their teaching practices when they…

This article aims to identify the attitudes of different generations regarding certain aspects of the teaching approaches used during the education of economic disciplines. The analysis primarily draws on a scientific review of previous studies in both international and Bulgarian contexts, focusing on the attitudes of lecturers and the perceptions…
