Hornberger's Continuum of Biliteracy (CoBi) model is a precursor to approaches such as translanguaging and the New London Group's multiliteracies. CoBi enables us to analyse and address language and literacy practices in education in a structured way. In this paper, I reflect on the explanatory power of CoBi in education in the Global South,…

This study seeks to enrich our understanding of modeling-based learning (MbL) in kindergarten science education, investigating the influences of different modeling tools on kindergarten child-constructed models and their modeling reasoning. Therefore, this multi-case study aimed at providing in-depth descriptions of how MbL was enacted by 66…

While Bhutanese biology teachers are expected to possess a rich understanding of scientific models, little is known about their perceptions of scientific models. This study, thus, examined Bhutanese biology teachers' perceptions of scientific models. The study recruited one hundred and eleven (N = 111) biology teachers using a total population…

Therefore, by exploring the effects of college students' professional commitment and achievement goal orientation variables on academic anxiety, it helps to understand…

In comparative VET research, a model developed from the perspective of comparative politics, the so-called 'skill formation systems typology' developed by Busemeyer and Trampusch, dominates the discourse. However, models to compare VET systems often rely on a narrow set of assumptions and fail to account for their complexity. We therefore review…
