Mathematics education research has been slow to adopt inclusive practices concerning Queer students. In this study, two doctoral dissertations highlight responsible research approaches to advance inclusivity. Ambiguous use of the terms "sex" and "gender" and using only binary statistical methods can lead to erroneous…

Japanese is an international language subject offered as an additional language in secondary schools in Malaysia. Japanese language subject begins from Form 1 to Form 5 at the age of 13 to 17. However, composition writing often becomes a problem among students in Japanese language classes due to insufficient mastery of vocabulary and sentence…

Contemporary science education themes are marked by the inevitable uncertainty of consequences emerging from human actions. They encompass disasters, pandemics and other events that have been marking our present times. Understanding new risks as the ones resulting from human action, even when proposing a solution for an issue, is one of the…

In Sweden, although all teacher education programs require the completion of the practicum, little focus has been placed on consistent evaluation of how content knowledge is included and built during practicum lessons, or how lesson planning and teaching are aligned. This article presents a novel method for teacher educators, mentors, and student…

The theme for the 44th yearbook of the Association of Literacy Educators and Researchers is "Elevating the Role of Creativity, Identity, and Voice in Literacy," an apropos response to the three pandemics facing the U.S. communities and schools over the past several years. It represents a robust and humanizing next step to the increased…

This article explores the notion of eros and education by turning to erotic literature: specifically, Shakespeare's "Love's Labour's Lost." In this early play, Shakespeare portrays a sophisticated Renaissance world in which the conventions of literary education overtly affirm and celebrate eros whilst covertly denying its relational and…

Visual impairment can affect a student's ability to learn since their concept development when interacting with educational material is being limited. Learning activities based on images and visually rich content are mainstream learning methods, where facilitating students with visual impairments for engaged learning can be challenging. For comic…

Children with language disorder frequently experience difficulties with vocabulary acquisition, and these difficulties often persist into adolescence. The literature indicates that clinical studies tend to investigate phonological-semantic approaches, whereas educational studies focus on the derivation of meaning within a literacy context. Little…

The present study aimed to construct the piloting phase of a more extensive investigation on the effectiveness of the keyword technique, rote memorisation and semantic mapping as vocabulary learning methods in word retention rates of 16 third-grade pre-service teachers studying at English Language Teaching Department of a large Turkish university.…

We examined the impact of images on novel word learning and consolidation, in a conceptual replication of Liu and Van Hell (2020). After participants had learned one set of novel words with definitions and images on Day 1 (remote words) and a different set on Day 2 (recent words), they judged the semantic relatedness of word pairs on Days 2 and 8…

Motion is a universal concept in common human perception. In the word system of a language, verb is inherently a very complex real word, both in terms of grammar and semantics, that complexity is due to the influence of the semantics of this word. However, in most of the previous studies, the authors often only focused on studying single word…

The relevance of the study is due to the need to identify the position of teachers in their professional activities, the manifestation of its reflective activity. A special attitude of the teacher to his own activity, when the very content of this activity is for the teacher as an object of analysis, reflection and evaluation, characterizes the…

Formulaic expressions (FEs), such as conventional collocations (e.g., fresh air) and phrases (e.g., take a break), constitute a significant part of language use in our daily lives (Erman & Warren, 2000). FEs are defined as multiword units that holistically represent a single meaning, and they are likely stored and retrieved as unanalyzed…

In contexts of first language (L1) acquisition, prediction and adaptation are often viewed as fundamental to the learning process (Rabagliati et al., 2016). One mechanism that has been proposed to specifically account for such adaptive behavior is error-based implicit learning (e.g., Chang et al., 2006). According to this account, speakers…

The functioning of any language is regulated not only by linguistic rules, but also by norms of social and cultural life. Nowadays, development of lingua cultural approach in worldwide education is conditioned by a re-construal of culture phenomena as a specific form of human existence. Until now, we have been dealing with an absence of sufficient…
