What is it to "care" and be "caring" as ethical music education researchers? Practices and principles of care have been explored critically in the domains of critical psychology, political theory, more-than-human-worlds, aesthetics, and feminist research practice. We need to do much more than integrate research ethics into…

Conversational turns are an important predictor of cognitive and language development, but little is known about their relationship with socioemotional development. In a previous study using LENA technology, Gómez and Strasser (2021) found that conversational turns assessed with 43 infants at 18 months predicted socioemotional competencies at 30…

Language acquisition unfolds within inherently multimodal contexts, where communication is expressed and perceived through diverse channels embedded in social interactions. For hearing children, this involves integrating speech with gesture; for deaf children, language develops through fully visual modalities. Such observations necessitate a…

Online discussions tend to be more effective when they are purposefully structured. In this article, we describe how the design of a photo-based protocol influenced community interactions within an online discussion in an undergraduate course. Students were asked to take and share a photo related to a course concept, respond to a peer's photo, and…

Numerous studies have examined the positive and negative effects of various types of interactions that occur while children view electronic book (e-book) stories. However, the effects of the different types of interactions have not been compared, and more importantly, the optimal amount and reoccurrence of these interactions on children has not…

At present, the research on the teacher-student interaction (TSI) mode in smart classroom (SC) was not in-depth enough, and a few studies mainly focuses on top-down theoretical deduction. This study adopted a bottom-up approach to study the TSI modes in SC and proposed specific implementation suggestions, which had important theoretical value and…

This article reports on an exploratory case study that applied the Community of Inquiry framework in the K-12 Philippine setting, where there are limited studies on blended learning interactions and experiences. The study examined blended learning interactions across three schools in the Philippine K-12 system to investigate the following: (1)…

We present an interactive spreadsheet that supports teaching essential concepts in classification using the logistic regression (LoR) model for binary classification. The interactive spreadsheet demonstrates the capabilities of LoR by integrating computation with visualization. Students will reinforce concepts like probabilities, maximum…

Little is known about counselor educators' experiences of gatekeeping doctoral students. Using an interpretative phenomenological approach, we examined counselor educators' experiences of gatekeeping doctoral students during the dissertation. Themes included (a) interventions, (b) prior student gatekeeping interactions, and (c) recommendations for…

Learning environments can benefit from the enactive concept which considers human and technological aspects as coupled together so that interaction is seen as a cycle of perceptually guided actions. Although existing literature reviews have been conducted to address the use of technologies in enactive learning environments, we observe they do not…

The demand for teaching and learning collaborative design is probably greater than ever thanks to many influential parties highlighting creativity, collaboration and designing as necessary future skills. However, 'good' collaborative design necessitates a clear understanding of what constitutes 'good' and 'collaboration', and of how an…

Diffraction has emerged as a concept and methodology through opposing reflexivity. In this paper, I argue that reflexivity and diffraction are not external to each other. In contrast, I propose that they blur into each other and so we do not find ourselves using pure reflexivity or diffraction. Furthermore, I contend that categorically…

Background: Influence is at the very core of physical education and sport pedagogy. Indeed, a large and growing body of work has focused on the (inter)actions of sport pedagogues which "are" deemed to be influential in terms of shaping the thoughts, feelings and actions of others. In comparison, little attention has been paid to the…

Blended learning, as an efficient teaching mode that combines the advantages of both online and offline learning, has been widely applied in universities. Nevertheless, the different learning patterns induce difficulty in evaluating the learning quality. In this paper, an approach of integrating online and offline interactions is proposed by…

Effective analysis and demonstration of these data features is of great significance for the optimization of interactive learning environment and learning behavior. Therefore, we take the big data set of learning behavior generated by an online interactive learning environment as the research object, define the features of learning behavior, and…
