Established healthy eating behaviours in childhood underpin the development of similar patterns into adulthood.

Gentrification is a complex issue with very real repercussions for urban youth. Games make learning fun and provide a way for students to explore complex systems through recursive play. We describe a board game designed to help students explore ratios and proportional reasoning while simultaneously engaging the causes and effects of…

This study deals with an elementary school that is undergoing a process of pedagogical change. The teachers understood that their weak point was excessive use of teaching based on memorization rather than developing high-order thinking (HOT) skills. The school therefore established teachers' learning communities for peer learning and designing…

During March of 2020, a novel strain of the Coronavirus began to close college campuses across the United States. But the teaching and learning did not stop, even though faculty and students were sent home to engage in remote teaching in order to avoid accelerating the spread of the pandemic on their campuses. In this study, interviews were…

In this article, the author argues that the narrow-sense community of inquiry, which is the methodology of education, must be driven by the pedagogy that underscores the wide-sense community of inquiry, i.e., the pedagogical guidelines that drive the community or inquiry as a teaching method. In doing so, they are not expressly ignoring the…

Schools across the United States are becoming more diverse and the way they respond to that diversity could make all the difference in the success of future generations. The purpose of this participatory action research study was to provide beginning teachers with a better understanding of how culture plays a role in teaching and learning. This…

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, chemical engineering departments from around the world shifted their course offerings from in-person to online almost instantaneously.

Political parties are often construed as playing an imperative role in democratic systems. However, what happens inside a party once people have joined as members and during their continued engagement is underexplored in research. This paper investigates the organisation of party education within political parties in Sweden and how political…

In 2020, nearly half of Texas's 385,000 public high school graduates were unprepared for college-level reading or math. Limited research reveals K-12 faculty perceive limited roles and responsibilities in the college process, relying heavily on guidance counselors and college admissions counselors for preparing students for college and careers.…

Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six tenured faculty at Hudson Valley Community College in New York. Transcripts were analyzed using interpretive phenomenological analysis to identify themes. Three major themes were identified:…

Though an abundance of academic literature supports the inclusion of aesthetic activities in university and K-12 L2 learning contexts, less attention has been focused on aesthetic approaches in community-based adult ESL contexts. Inspired by a pedagogy of multiliteracies/Design (New London Group, 1996), this paper explores creative meaning making…

Purpose: The Open for Antiracism program supports faculty to change their teaching practices to be antiracist through the affordances of open educational resources (OER) and open pedagogy. This study aims to raise questions about how professional development impacts student outcomes, and how faculty perceive the utility of OER and open pedagogy to…

This article provides the first causal evidence of a system-wide corequisite reform in Tennessee, which mainstreams underprepared students into college-level courses with concurrent support. Using regression discontinuity and difference-in-regression-discontinuity designs, we find that, for those on the margin of college level, students placed…

This article shares two research projects in the United States and Australia where children and teachers lead their local communities towards living well in precarious times. Rooted in the image of 'children as citizens of the now', the research projects offer innovative pedagogies as a way for children to generate meaningful relationships with…
