The persistent digital divide in the Philippine education sector poses significant challenges for both teachers and learners, particularly in the non-formal pathway of education called the Alternative Learning System (ALS). Using the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, this study explored how the contexts of ALS teachers…

High-quality early childhood education (ECE) does more than boost kindergarten readiness--it sets the foundation for academic success, workforce participation, and economic mobility. This brief explores how leading global systems--and a few standout U.S. states--are reimagining ECE to expand access to more young learners and ensure alignment with…

PhotoVoice invites students to capture photos of concerning issues, elaborate on them in writing, and share the photos and written accounts with the community, hoping for change. Inspired by critical pedagogy, it challenges teaching English as a set of linguistic skills/standards detached from students' life challenges. As a teacher-educator and…

This article details how a preservice teacher discovered that small changes in the delivery of content through multimodal avenues create big changes in engagement with required canonical texts. The authors explain why multimodal instruction should be utilized. Then, readers are provided with descriptions of two example lessons using a multimodal…

This study explores university educators' attitudes, barriers, and learning needs regarding the adoption of generative AI in higher education. Using a mixed-methods approach, surveys from 70 educators and interviews with five programme directors at a university in the Netherlands reveal generally positive attitudes, especially towards content…

Background/purpose: Smartphones have evolved into indispensable learning tools, offering continuous access to information across both formal and informal educational environments. Recent research illuminates the complex interplay between students' academic engagement (SAE), digital competency (DC), and the digital informal learning (DIL)…

Background/purpose: The study examined the impact of artificial intelligence on strategic decision-making in business management, focusing on Educational and Business Environments, with a particular emphasis on internal capabilities, organizational readiness, ethical considerations, and regional contextual factors that affect AI integration.…

This study aimed to examine the impact of dialogic reading implemented within a classroom setting on the vocabulary and listening comprehension skills of kindergarten children defined as children with limited language proficiency. The study enlisted a cohort of 61 kindergarten participants sourced from classes in Ankara, Turkey. A classroom-based…

This paper investigates the integration of distance learning models and English Language Teaching (ELT) in Colombia through a conceptual reflection on their historical evolution and impact. Over the past sixty years, ELT in Colombia has undergone significant changes, adapting to evolving educational environments. Through a reflective analysis of…

Dialogic classroom discussions where students collaboratively share and reason through complex ideas are critical for achieving ambitious reform goals for student learning. However, K-12 classroom talk is predominantly characterized by monologic, "teacher-centered" discourse patterns that have proven exceedingly resilient to change.…

To improve postschool outcomes for students with disabilities, research in secondary transition has increasingly aimed to identify in-school experiences that contribute to positive outcomes after high school. Although research on postschool success for this population has recently identified seven new predictors, operational definitions and…

Multicultural education (ME) is an emerging concept to fulfil society's demands to perform effectively in culturally diverse environments. Students in remote areas have little opportunity to be engaged in ME due to geographical barriers and the COVID-19 effects. This study proposed a Digital Cultural Exchange course in Taiwan where remote students…

Feedback literacy, the process by which students make meaning and learn from feedback, is frequently low among post-secondary students, perhaps due to lack of training (Carless & Boud, 2018). We sought to determine if students benefitted from feedback literacy training integrated with mindfulness training. We created a six-lesson, online,…

While artificial intelligence in language learning has garnered extensive research attention, the specific roles of motivation and digital literacy (DL) in shaping students' self-regulated language learning within AI remain largely unexplored. Based on the theory of planned behaviour (TPB), this study endeavoured to understand how learning…

How to bridge the gap between the reading skills of rural-to-urban migrant children and children with urban permanent residence has long been a big challenge in the field of language and family education research. However, very few studies have focused on high-level reading skills and their association with the home literacy environment and…
