This information gap is compounded by the way public schools typically pay teachers--based on experience and academic credentials rather than supply and demand conditions--which sends weak signals to potential teachers about which positions are most in-demand…

Background/purpose: This study addresses challenges in graduate research supervision by developing and evaluating an AI chatbot research coaching system designed through Design Thinking and Educational Design Research. The research aimed to examine system usability, perceived value, and alignment between user experiences and original design…

This article outlines how the authors' research and development group, comprised of LGBTQ+-identifying teacher educators and classroom social studies teachers, considered and conceptualized how they might engage in LGBTQ+-inclusive social studies education in middle and secondary schools during contentious sociopolitical times. As a group, they…

This study explored if generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT can generate full lessons plans that are actually useful for real classrooms and meet the quality standards teachers and students deserve. The authors share how their teacher educator participants rated each type of lesson, what they preferred, and what the results…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that has been used quite effectively in the 21st century and has the potential to directly affect education as well as many other fields. AI is supported in many areas such as developing skills in education, increasing the effectiveness of education and student motivation, contributing to the…

The study identified high school students' homework management profiles based on five strategies (environment, time, motivation, emotion, and distraction). It investigated the differences between profiles in terms of completion, time spent on homework, frequency, and academic achievement. The study was conducted with a sample of 860 high school…

A small-scale qualitative case study of students at a post-1992 university in England sought to understand the nuanced experiences of returning to face-to-face study following the pandemic.

Classroom dialogue is crucial for effective teaching and learning, prompting many professional development (PD) programs to focus on dialogic pedagogy. Traditionally, these programs rely on manual analysis of classroom practices, which limits timely feedback to teachers. To address this, artificial intelligence (AI) has been employed for rapid…

In this paper, we finish describing the project and the experimentation of "Ricerca Operativa Applicazioni Reali" (ROAR; in English, Real Applications of Operations Research), a three-year project for higher secondary schools. ROAR is composed of three teaching units addressed to grades 10, 11, and 12, respectively. To improve students'…

Curricular battles within the United States are often simplified as ideological clashes between progressive and conservative forces.

The growth of and attention given to English-medium instruction (EMI) and related topics in contemporary higher education research was well-represented at the AILA 2024 World Congress in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Research reports and symposia from around the globe attest to the fact that EMI remains a consistent area of interest and that many…

The 2011 report "Vision and Change: A Call to Action (V&C)" resulted from a national effort to rethink biology curriculum. "V&C" outlines core concepts and core competencies for biology undergraduates and promotes evidence-based pedagogy, undergraduate research, and inclusive practices. However, it is unclear how much…

Using improvement science principles and an equity perspective, this book demonstrates how schools and districts can increase their efficacy and how teachers and leaders can improve their practice for the benefit of all students. Through eight case studies representing a variety of K-12 school and community settings, the authors address a range of…
