Algebra is critical in shaping future mathematics success and is integral to the K-12 curriculum. Despite its inclusion, a common challenge arises as students' progress to higher grades without a solid foundation, resulting in challenging learning experiences. This action research study focuses on the algebraic learning experience of a Grade 7…

This study examines the current state of music education for high school students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) at Xing Yu School in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China, to optimize the teaching model to enhance their educational experience. The research employs a qualitative approach, including interviews with key informants such as school…

Advances in growth mindset scholarship now recognize the role of instructors' mindsets in shaping classroom mindset culture. In the present paper, we synthesize the newly developing instructor mindset literature and report on a dataset that includes student (N = 765) and instructor (N = 44) reports of instructor mindset beliefs and behaviors. We…

Constructivist instructional approaches have gained significant popularity in education as educators seek to create more engaging and effective learning environments. However, the effectiveness of these approaches in promoting student learning remains a subject of debate. This systematic review aims to synthesise existing evaluation-based research…

Artificial intelligence (AI) literacy has emerged to equip students with digital skills for effective evaluation, communication, collaboration, and ethical use of AI in online, home, and workplace settings. Countries are increasingly developing AI curricula to support students' technological skills for future studies and careers. However, there is…

The Neurosequential Model in Education (NME) is described as a developmentally sensitive and biologically respectful approach to development and learning. This paper postulates that the NME shares many commonalities with the Montessori Method in that it, too, is developmentally sensitive and adheres to biologically respectful concepts. This paper…

Pretend play is often hypothesized in a global sense to be an effective context for young children's learning, but there is much still to learn about whether all types of information can be learned equally and whether all types of pretend play are equally beneficial. The present study tests whether preschoolers can learn a simple, novel causal…

Inclusive education has been promoted in recent years; however, its inadequacies and the difficulty of its practical application have been pointed out.
