Video lectures in massive open online courses (MOOCs) provide an opportunity to not only deliver instructional content but also engage learners. While there are many different styles of video lectures, it is not clear how video styles affect learner engagement. This study analysed and critiqued different typologies of video styles and classified…

Teachers' teaching styles play a crucial role in students' creativity. However, previous studies have focused only on variable-centered research methods that presuppose teachers to be of a particular type, which does not correspond to real-life contexts in which they teach. Therefore, this study will use a person-centered approach, latent profile…

In this article, we examine how thinking with affect theory offers fertility within higher education studies to see and do teaching and learning differently. For many educators in universities, the idea that teaching is a cognitive process of information transmission is still taken-for-granted. These beliefs are visible through the persistence of…

High-quality teaching is vital for accommodating the individualised learning needs of diverse students. However, compared with specific explicit teaching practices, teaching styles that determine their use of teaching methods have received much less attention. This study investigated the contributions of inclusive education teachers' work…

We propose the 'flow of a proof' as a construct that relates to the balance lecturers achieve in their presentation between the proof as a whole and its different parts, taking into account various aspects (informal, contextual) of proof classroom presentation. We conducted expert interviews in which we presented two different proofs of the same…

The prevalence of autism is on the rise and this population of students is not academically thriving, thus leading to strained resources and more intervention services across the lifespan. The educational problem is that teachers report being ill-equipped to address the diverse academic needs of their students with autism. The purpose of this…

Planning lessons and in-the-moment improvising during enactment of the plan are two central activities inherent to the practice of teaching. To what extent are these pursuits conflicting or inconsistent? What are the characteristics of improvisation during teaching and what are teachers' possible stances on it? We discuss these questions based on…

Mathematics education in the United States has faced persistent challenges, with proficiency rates plateauing since 2005 and a significant gap in proficiency between Latino and White students. Although various factors have contributed to this gap, scholars have highlighted teachers as pivotal in the achievement of Latino students. Recent research…

Though teacher education programs must document candidates' teaching dispositions, there is a gap in the literature around what faculty may learn by observing students in contexts outside of the k-12 classroom. This case study explores what faculty may learn about teaching dispositions by observing tutors. For our study, three mathematics…

Integrating intended learning outcomes (ILOs) in educational frameworks has proven to be an essential strategy for enhancing teaching effectiveness and student learning across various disciplines. ILOs serve as precise statements outlining the knowledge and competencies that students should acquire by the end of a course or lesson, functioning as…

Continuous revision policies provide sizable benefits to students, though one previously unexplored avenue of research is how such policies can help students develop a growth mindset. For the purposes of this article, a "continuous revision policy" is one in which students can revise their work on a rolling basis up until a predetermined…

Effective instruction is vital for quality education in Kenya, with learners' success mainly dependent on structured methods like the five-stage lesson plan (5-SLP). Nonetheless, the effectiveness of instruction may differ depending on the demographic and professional attributes of the teachers. Although the value of planning for content delivery…

The debate about the ethics of belief is a classic and it has given rise to wide-ranging debates in epistemology, the philosophy of language, the philosophy of mind, as well as in ethics. In epistemology, the question is what the norms of belief are -- should one believe what is true, what is well-evidenced, what is pragmatic or what? -- and this…

Purpose: This paper responds to two questions: (a) What are the possibilities and tensions associated with using arts-based methods to support research with children and young people in physical education (PE)? and (b) How can the pedagogical attributes of embodiment in PE inform research with children and young people? Method: Three PE…

Discourse surrounding social justice pedagogy (SJP) as a means of addressing the historic inequities in education is increasing in education research. Qualitative research, however, examining experiences of educators doing SJP is still lacking, particularly in higher education. We trained three faculty instructors of undergraduate research courses…
