This paper presents the findings from a qualitative study exploring students' perceptions of what constitutes technological knowledge. Technological knowledge dimensions from previous literature do not seem to be student-led, but rather suggested by the authors. It is therefore important to incorporate student views in order to create a more…

This study documents the development of an assessment (a multiple-choice test with free text rationale) built into an academic skills module over a 2 year period. Initially introduced as a credit bearing assessment to promote student engagement, disappointing results in the first year prompted a further intervention in year 2 with an additional…

This article describes research on the use of a differentiated approach in assessing students' academic achievements during mathematics lessons. The study used theoretical and empirical research methods. In particular, normative documents and scholarly literature were reviewed, and in 2021, the study conducted a survey of online mathematics…

This theoretical piece discusses the concept of a "teacher learning progression" in an attempt to integrate teacher learning and assessment. From the authors' perspective, the main features of the "teacher learning progression" are the longitudinal understanding of teacher knowledge and practice, and the opportunity to align…

In this paper, I propose an analysis of the structure of Clairaut's "Éléments de Géométrie" (1741), a book presenting geometrical knowledge organized around problems, with rich metadiscourse connecting problems and other elements of mathematical content. This analysis is inspired both by the "Series of problems at the crossroad of…

The study aims to examine Malaysian and Indonesian undergraduate students' sustainability knowledge and sustainable attitudes and the impact on their sustainability intention and sustainable behaviour. An online survey was conducted using 953 respondents. The SmartPLS (Partial Least Squares) analysis demonstrated that sustainability knowledge and…

Over the past 25 years, Uganda has implemented universal access in education policy. This has increased the number of male and female learners eligible for university education. Unfortunately, Makerere University is still predominantly an on-campus university, whose physical infrastructure has not developed to match the numbers. As such, some…

Low-skilled adults in literacy in English are those with skills insufficient to complete tasks requiring comparing and contrasting information, paraphrasing, or making low-level inferences. Low-skilled adults in numeracy in English are those who would have difficulty making calculations with whole numbers and percentages, estimating numbers or…

This study applies Harvey and Green's (1993) model of quality to scholarly knowledge production. Although studies of quality in higher education have been commonplace for decades, there is a gap in understanding quality in terms of research production from stakeholders' perspectives. This study begins to fill that gap through a…

This longitudinal study examines the relationship between students' knowledge-in-use performance and their performance on third-party designed summative tests within a coherent and equitable learning environment. Focusing on third-grade students across three consecutive project-based learning (PBL) units aligned with the Next Generation Science…

Students entering third-level higher education undergo a transformational learning journey. Learning in this context is defined as the need to understand key concepts (threshold) to engage with the academic content of the course. This learning journey is moulded by their experiences not only within the context of the third-level institution but is…

Distributing opportunities to participate in talk-in-interaction during whole-class mathematics discussions is an important equity issue, with multiple studies reporting pervasive inequitable participation patterns in mathematics classrooms. Less attention, however, has been given to the underlying interactional practices that can initiate and…

This paper critically examines the tensions arising between Reception teachers' professional beliefs and knowledge, and the school readiness agenda in England. It scrutinises how the increasing academic expectations placed on children to ensure they are 'ready for school' may conflict with teachers' understanding of how young children learn, their…

This study examined the impact of an intensive professional development series on early childhood educators' content knowledge of engineering and their self-efficacy towards teaching engineering. Seventeen early childhood teachers participated and responded to questionnaires, surveys, and focus-group interviews before and after the professional…

The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship among the knowledge proposed by school curriculum, the content offered by a mathematics teacher, and what was acquired by students regarding quadrilaterals in the 5th grade, using Didactic Transposition Theory. To examine the transposing process, a case study involving a mathematics…
