This study considered a preservice teacher's (PST's) attention to multilingual learner core practices within her approximations of practice of mathematics language routines during a secondary mathematics methods course. We used a framework of approximations of practice to understand how a PST enacted and developed an understanding of multilingual…

The purpose of the online course, Teaching Methodology Economics in the Further Education and Training Phase, is to expose student teachers to the online team-based learning (TBL) strategy as a collaborative teaching and learning approach that allows them to follow an organised procedure. To increase student engagement, accountability and…

Contemporary educational practices impose challenges and necessary changes in teaching and learning processes in which cyberspace and virtual contexts become places of learning. Affection, emotion, perception, and imagination compose the construction of meaningful adult knowledge. Such theoretical assumptions become fundamental for teaching and…

This article describes how three higher education literacy faculty shifted their traditional face-to-face instruction to a combined synchronous and asynchronous delivery in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic and subsequent closure of the university. Faculty share specific lessons that were learned over the first year of the pandemic, and how these…

The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 has forced teachers at all levels to adjust their teaching styles. Nearly every instructor is teaching in ways that are entirely new (at least to them). Online methods have jumped suddenly from à la carte options to essential components of instructional delivery at all levels from pre-kindergarten to higher…

During the spring semester of 2020, education shifted in unprecedented ways due to a global pandemic. Along with the K-12 and university courses that were thrust online, education methods courses, existing in a nexus--often dependent on both education systems to achieve all learning goals, also transitioned to remote learning. In a document…

The growing body of literature is reporting positive results when it comes to flipped learning which across disciplines and contexts involves student-centered, technology-integrated teaching. Using a systematic scoping review, this paper seeks to examine the impact of the flipped instructional design (FID) as an online pedagogy on students'…

Given the difficult and unforeseen circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we need to transition from face-to-face instruction to digital instruction. This paper provides a teacher educator's autoethnographic account of implementing the pedagogical intervention of digital learning and student teachers' reactions to its effects on their…

The COVID-19 pandemic has required educators at all levels to pivot instruction online. In this article, we consider methods we adopted to engage novice science teachers in approximations of teaching, online. We describe the principles of our science teacher education program and provide a rationale for the core feature of our science teaching…

Teacher preparation programs need quality training courses that offer flexible, interactive alternatives to isolating online courses and classroom-based programs that limit students to a specific place and time. The HyFlex course design provides a solution by combining internet video instruction (such as Zoom), regular online learning, and…

In this article, we focus on a set of remote activities regarding simulated juries, judges' evaluations, communication of verdicts, and a post-discussion conversation. These activities aimed to promote learning of the preservice teachers about the differences between remote and in-person teaching in a chemistry teaching methods course. The set of…

In March, our on-campus tutoring program for credential candidates and local students was shut down by the pandemic. This signature program had served families and the community for many years and provided essential fieldwork experience for credential candidates in our elementary and secondary reading methods courses. Most importantly, it provided…

Teacher candidates in a special education teacher training program and candidates in a master's in applied behavior analysis (ABA) program both require learning and applying evidence-based practices with fidelity to effectively instruct students with severe disabilities. This study evaluated the effects of behavior skills training (BST) via…

This study examined the implementation and effectiveness of a comprehensive school physical activity program (CSPAP)- informed, 15-week physical education secondary methods course, adapted from its previous in-person format to be completely online for fall 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The participants were 15 preservice physical education…

With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the nation's universities and colleges required online learning and shelter-in-place/stay-at-home protocols for the end of Spring 2020 semester. This new reality resulted in the fact that my undergraduate elementary science methods course would not be held in our Title 1 urban elementary professional…
