Jiarui Zhao; Citing Li; Dingfang Shu – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2025
Materials development is increasingly recognized as a valuable venue for narrowing the research-practice gap. This qualitative case study explores how four middle school teachers and three university researchers collaborated in a community of practice (CoP) to write textbooks by highlighting the interplay between their collaborative relationships…

Alexandra Hay – Journal of Education Policy, 2025
In this article, I present a new conceptual framework constructed using sensemaking theory and Actor-Network Theory (ANT) to demonstrate layers of policy enactment. The framework reimagines policy enactment as a sociomaterial ethico-political activity by considering the factors that mediate policy enactment and the assemblages facilitating the…

Kelly Bylica; Patrick Schmidt – Arts Education Policy Review, 2024
The past two decades have seen a growing de-professionalization of teaching. Combating this educational climate requires music teacher education programs to prioritize both critical pedagogical practices and policy knowhow in order to reestablish a focus on relational engagements and the navigation of the complex tensions lived daily in schools.…

Yusuke Uegatani; Hiroki Otani; Shintaro Shirakawa; Ryo Ito – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2024
Due to the learning paradox, students cannot have real difficulty in understanding a mathematical concept that they have not yet understood. There is a gap between real difficulties, directly experienced by students, and illusionary ones, only observed by researchers. This paper aims to offer a critical reflection on our understanding of the term…

Hyunyi Jung; Corey Brady – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2025
In this article, we investigated how a class engaged in whole-class discussions of modeling solutions, across two different types of modeling tasks: a Model Eliciting Activity (MEA) and a Three-Act Task. We analyzed whole-class discourse as small groups presented and responded to each other's solutions to a MEA and a Three-Act Task. We have also…

Legitimation Code Theory as an Analytical Framework for Integrated STEM Curriculum and Its Enactment
Chelsey A. Dankenbring; S. Selcen Guzey; Lynn A. Bryan – Research in Science Education, 2024
Recent reform initiatives in STEM disciplines inspired the development and implementation of integrated STEM approaches to science teaching and learning. Integrated STEM as an approach to science teaching and learning leverages engineering principles and practices to situate learning in an authentic and meaningful science learning environment.…

Alaattin Arikan; Mert Bilen; Elif Aladag – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
This research aimed to investigate the effect of a technology-supported 3E learning model on middle school students' knowledge of disasters and their attitudes towards disaster preparedness. To this end, it used an explanatory sequential mixed methods design. Quantitative and qualitative data were used to describe how the technology-supported 3E…

Bindiya Stephanie Ganesh – ProQuest LLC, 2024
It appears that a disconnect may exist between the taught curriculum in middle school and the real-world applications of Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) concepts, leaving students underprepared to envision themselves in future STEM roles. This two-cycle action research study investigated the connection between middle school…

Caitlin C. Farrell; William R. Penuel; Annie Allen; Eleanor R. Anderson; Angel X. Bohannon; Cynthia E. Coburn; Stephanie L. Brown – Grantee Submission, 2022
Given the rapid growth of research-practice partnerships (RPPs), we need a framework that helps the field understand how RPPs can facilitate organizational learning in service of local educational improvement and transformation. Drawing on sociocultural and organizational learning theories, we argue that learning can happen for the organizations…

Filipa Alexandra Baptista Faria; João Pedro Da Ponte; Margarida Rodrigues – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
This study aims to identify how mathematics teachers understand whole-class discussions and to know the influence of lesson study on the way they orchestrate these discussions. This is a qualitative study, conducted with two groups of middle school teachers. We analyze data concerning three teachers, Patrícia, Marta, and Diana, collected through…

McGill, Monica M.; Reinking, Anni – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2022
Problem: K-12 teachers face many challenges when teaching a new subject like computer science (CS). They are often far removed from the research being conducted to identify evidence-driven solutions to these challenges. Likewise, researchers are also often removed from the challenges of classroom practices that teachers face when teaching CS.…

Falbe, Kristina N.; Smith, Kristie W. – Middle School Journal, 2022
As middle grades teacher educators, we carry a responsibility to prepare pre-service teachers for the realities of practice ahead in their real-world classrooms. Similarly, middle school instructional coaches and specialists support in-service practitioners within the authentic context of their real world, real time experiences as teachers. In the…
