Graduates in biology or genetics learn Mendel's laws and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium as students, and they know, use, and sometimes teach these concepts. However, it is unusual to learn about stochastic processes during the graduate studies of these topics, although the applications of Markov chains in the fields of genetics or biology are…

Children and adolescents with autism have a higher likelihood of being exposed to bullying, abuse, and sexual assault which, through repeated exposure, has been demonstrated to impede academic, social, and physical functioning among this population. However, the complexity of unpacking the characteristics of autism and trauma can pose a challenge…

Facilitators of professional development (PD) for mathematics teachers currently gain increasing attention, as their practices are crucial for the success of spreading mathematics educational ideas and innovations into schools and strengthening the professional expertise of teachers. So far, mainly two components of facilitation have been…

Culturally relevant education (CRE) approaches use minoritized populations' cultural capital to break the perennial cycle of these groups' underperformance. Yet, mathematics and science teachers do not feel confident in using CRE approaches. This literature review explores the practices and challenges that accompany CRE implementations in math and…

Meta-analytic models for dependent effect sizes have grown increasingly sophisticated over the last few decades, which has created challenges for a priori power calculations. We introduce power approximations for tests of average effect sizes based upon several common approaches for handling dependent effect sizes. In a Monte Carlo simulation, we…

Drawing from data generated in a high school creative writing class, this article presents experiences and moments from a classroom-sited research project that were considered through the theoretical perspective of response-able pedagogies. Using postqualitative methods, this analysis addresses two framing questions: How does turning attention…

Reaction mechanisms are central to organic chemistry and organic chemistry education. Assessing understanding of reaction mechanisms can be evaluated holistically, wherein the entire mechanism is considered; however, we assert that such an evaluation does not account for how learners variably understand mechanistic components (e.g., nucleophile,…

The purpose of the current study was to investigate how preservice teachers perceived the utility of a psychological report for their practice (e.g., creating an individual education plan or a lesson plan). Teacher candidates, who were enrolled in an Inclusive Education course, used fictional psychological reports as the basis for course…

With heightened equity pursuits in 21st century schools and the key role of assessment in teachers' concerns with educational equity, scholars have recently attempted to empirically investigate teachers' conceptions of fairness in classroom assessment. This study contributes to this growing literature and draws on interview data from 27…

The meta-analytic-predictive (MAP) approach is a Bayesian method to incorporate historical controls in new trials that aims to increase the statistical power and reduce the required sample size. Here we investigate how to calculate the sample size of the new trial when historical data is available, and the MAP approach is used in the analysis. In…

Agricultural technical and vocational education and training (TVET) for sustainable development is too important to be implemented with no plan and accomplish tangible results in the real world or in the agricultural setting. TVET can be fruitful if it is performed systematically based on proper criteria, competencies, and educational methods.…

This mixed-method research study investigates the impact of programme accreditation conducted by the Saudi National Commission for Accreditation and Assessment (NCAAA) on teaching and learning at the Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The quantitative data was collected through an online survey consisting of 53…

Background: Flipped classroom, which is inversion of conventional classroom procedures in simple terms, currently stands out as a popular teaching strategy for many Science courses. Purpose: In this article, we tried to make a reinterpretation of the findings of recent empirical studies conducted on the effectiveness of the flipped classroom…

The essay discusses innovations in reading education by the schoolbook author Marcius Willson (1813-1905) through an examination of two popular series of basal readers he produced during and after the American Civil War. His School and Family Series (Harper & Brothers, 1860-) generated acrimonious debate about science education, literacy, and…

The researcher adapted the Flanders Interaction Analysis Categories (FIAC) as a tool to observe a series of reading learning in the lower grades with the aim of evaluating the classroom interactions and knowing the implications for students' reading abilities in Public Elementary School (SDN) 012 Langkanae, Palopo City. Using a qualitative…
