The purpose of this study was on understanding and interpreting five minoritised pre-service teachers' past educational experiences that impacted their first-time science microteaching experiences in a science teaching methods course. The study is unique because it illuminates and contributes to the literature on the importance of minoritised…

The past 10 years have seen a major shift in English and English as a Second Language (ESL) placement and pedagogy in California's Community Colleges (CCC), driven by a developmental education reform movement known as acceleration. Popularized by the faculty-led California Acceleration Project (CAP), the acceleration movement focused on reducing…

Submission of an article implies that the work described has not been published previously except in Teaching mathematics to students with hearing loss requires special attention and care. Using materials in mathematics education is crucial in helping students concretize abstract concepts and relationships, create schemas related to the taught…

Background: The widespread use of information and communication technology (ICT) has led to significant changes in societal aspects, resulting in the emergence of a "knowledge society." However, students and teachers have faced challenges in adapting to this digitalization. In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), transitioning to a…

Science learned requires constructivist experiences so that students could learnt to discover and conclude. However, today's learned challenges were increasing along with the diversity of students and interests. The aimed of this researched was to increase the knowledge and practiced of prospective science teachers in didactic practiced through…

Taking both personal and collaborative perspectives, the present study aims to sketch out emotion-bearing incidents during the practicum process over an extended period. Keeping in mind the significance of emotions in language learning and teaching, the present study aims, in particular, to see what emotions preservice EFL teachers (PSTs)…

Due to the introduction and rapid ubiquity of artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-integrated programs that can be used by students and teachers, educational scholarship evaluating the capabilities of AI is needed. This study evaluates the abilities of three prominent AI programs--ChatGPT, Microsoft's Bing, and Google's Bard--to create high school…

In English Language Teaching (ELT), awareness of multilingualism for learning can aid in developing programs that effectively enhance learners' communication in a linguistically and culturally diverse world. Embracing the linguistic landscape (LL) -- the language visible beyond the classroom that permeates daily living -- can provide students with…

Implementing schoolwide evidence-based reading instruction grounded in the science of reading can be a significant challenge. The book guides educators on how to use the PLC process to improve student reading performance. Access assessments and lesson plans focused on the five pillars of literacy instruction, with collaborative strategies to help…

This paper describes results from a case study about how a primary pre-service teacher (PST) used curriculum materials (CMs) when planning for a mathematics lesson during her final practicum. The data is drawn from a doctoral study (in progress) and results show how the PST initiated an active process of searching for and sifting through CMs on a…

Research suggests that math anxiety correlates directly with individuals' views of mathematics-related experiences. Research also suggests that math anxiety may begin in early elementary grades and remain into adulthood. This study examined how teachers' experiences, perceptions, and mathematics confidence levels influence mathematics instruction.…

In Sweden, although all teacher education programs require the completion of the practicum, little focus has been placed on consistent evaluation of how content knowledge is included and built during practicum lessons, or how lesson planning and teaching are aligned. This article presents a novel method for teacher educators, mentors, and student…

This study aimed to compare the effects of computer-based lessons versus traditional lessons on achievement of university students regarding meiotic cell division. A pretest-intervention-posttest design was used. To determine the effect of our computer-based intervention, we established a control group. In total, 100 second-year university…

Purpose: This study aimed to explore how an adapted theoretical framework by networking two theories could help document teachers' collective learning through lesson study. Design/methodology/approach: Interconnected Model of Teacher Professional Growth (IMPG) and Documentational Approach to Didactics (DAD) has been used individually to document…

Mathematics content courses for prospective elementary teachers (PTs) should provide them with opportunities to deepen their understanding of and develop productive dispositions toward mathematics. Supporting mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) to learn how to develop practices that create rich learning opportunities for novice teachers comprises…
