Although learning styles (LS) have been recognised as a neuromyth, they remain a virtual truism within education. A point of concern is that the term LS has been used within theories that describe them using completely different notions and categorisations. This is the first empirical study to investigate education professionals'…

Melanie W. Jensen; Peter J. Rich – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2025
In the teaching of math-fact automaticity, most classroom teachers are unaware of research-based practices such as the use of a controlled response time, the scaffolded teaching of individual math facts, the limiting of exposure to new math facts, the separation of math facts with common operands, and even the definition of automaticity. As a…

Wright, Leslie Kate; Cortez, Paulina; Franzen, Margaret A.; Newman, Dina L. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Many biology students struggle to learn about the process of meiosis and have particular difficulty understanding the molecular basis of crossing over and the importance of homologous pairing for proper segregation. To help students overcome these challenges, we designed an activity that uses a newly developed Chromosome Connections Kit® from 3-D…

The most obvious way that misinformation does damage is by causing people to believe misconceptions or reducing belief in accurate facts. One experiment found that just a handful of cherry-picked statistics about climate change confused people and reduced their acceptance that climate change was happening. After being shown the misinformation,…

Peltier, Tiffany K.; Washburn, Erin K.; Heddy, Benjamin C.; Binks-Cantrell, Emily – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
In recent years, many states have passed laws requiring dyslexia training for teachers. Research suggests teachers hold both scientifically-based conceptions as well as misconceptions of dyslexia, but there is little research regarding the specific concepts of dyslexia in which teachers are unsure. Research on conceptual change suggests a…

Infant Mental Health (IMH) and the Pyramid Model (PM) are two frameworks with an important common goal: supporting the mental health and social-emotional well-being of infants, young children and their families. For the first time ever, one book integrates these two frameworks to create a more effective, knowledgeable, and responsive early…

Fuchs, Travis T.; Bonney, Kevin M.; Arsenault, Mike – American Biology Teacher, 2021
Students come to science class with many ideas of how the natural world works, some of which do not match the consensus of the scientific community and can lead to misunderstandings. Because a growing body of educational research indicates that these misconceptions can serve as resources for learning, we developed a four-point plan to leverage…

Weinstein, Yana; Sumeracki, Megan; Caviglioli, Oliver – Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2018
Educational practice does not, for the most part, rely on research findings. Instead, there's a preference for relying on our intuitions about what's best for learning. But relying on intuition may be a bad idea for teachers and learners alike. This accessible guide helps teachers to integrate effective, research-backed strategies for learning…

Tibke, Jon – SAGE Publications Ltd (UK), 2019
Educational neuroscience is one of the most hotly debated areas of research and is often misrepresented with grand claims for what it means for teaching and learning. Is each side of the brain responsible for different types of mental activity? Can listening to Mozart improve long-term brain function? Can neuroscience help with reading, or student…

Damico, James S.; Baildon, Mark C. – Teachers College Press, 2022
Climate change and climate denial have remained largely off the radar in literacy and social studies education. This book addresses that gap with the design of the "Climate Denial Inquiry Model" (CDIM) and clear examples of how educators and students can confront two forms of climate denial: "science denial" and "action…

Werblow, Jacob; Duesbery, Luke; Koulidobrova, Helen – Journal of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, 2020
The U.S. spends far more on education than any other country in the world (OECD, 2011); yet, continues to produce vastly inequitable outcomes, especially for English Learners (ELs). In this article we explore the reasons for, and consequences of, the U.S. system's continued failure to support ELs. The term, in itself, is part of the problem as it…

Barrett, Catherine; Junio, Rachel Wright – Journal on English Language Teaching, 2017
For most students, revision is viewed as a punishment for not writing well enough. However, what if students' negative perceptions of revision shifted to view revision as an opportunity to better develop the meaning and message of texts. Revision, like all processes in writing, is complex, cognitively demanding, and requires students to be able to…

Gudnason, Jackie – BU Journal of Graduate Studies in Education, 2017
Learning styles-based instruction is popular in mainstream society and education, yet lacks empirical data to support its use. Misconceptions surrounding the effectiveness of learning-styles based instruction are a disservice to students and educators, with the limited resources and funding available in education. Limitations in learning-styles…
