This paper reports on two teachers' perceptions as part of a project examining the learning that took place when 9 and 10-year-old children used "ScratchMaths" in their programme. The project used design-based methodology, which incorporated video-recorded classroom excerpts, teacher interviews, and teacher analysis and review of their…

Turkey has become one of the countries where these international students continue their education due to ongoing wars in the surrounding countries and the fact that Turkey is a transit route for refugees. The aim of the present study is to investigate the problems encountered by international student teachers while studying in Turkey and to…

Probability is generally considered one of the most challenging areas to teach in mathematics education due to its intricate nature. However, the simulation-based teaching method can increase students' accessibility significantly to the probability problems because it enables students to resolve the problems with minimal mathematical skills. By…

CBM for mathematics assesses growth in accuracy and fluency of basic math skills using content from a student's curriculum. CBM for mathematics can include single-skill measures (SSM), skill-based measures (SBM), and general-outcome measures (GOM). Past research on growth rates in CBM for mathematics has focused on GOMs and has relied on…

Understanding a student's community and home life enables the professor to tailor the teaching method to support them best. Embracing the student's cultural background provides a nurturing that makes the environment more conducive to learning and gives credence to their well-being and place in society. If there is no cultural responsiveness, it…

Many secondary students in the United States are struggling to find success in math creating a preparation gap in the U.S. STEM workforce. Based on national and international assessments, little improvement has been made over the past several decades in U.S. secondary students' knowledge and skills in higher-order math tasks like translating and…

High rates of student misbehavior within the American public school system are a chronic problem for many public schools. Public schools sometimes address the rising problem of student misbehavior in ineffective, unproductive, and often harmful ways; they punish and exclude students from the academic setting, thus fostering resentment in students…

Research in artificial intelligence has made great strides in developing 'cognitive tutors' that teach a range of technical skills. These automated tutors allow students to practice, observe their mistakes, and provide personalized instructional feedback. Evidence shows that these methods can increase learning above and beyond traditional…

The role of resettlement services, in particular language education programs, has become crucial in helping newcomers' transition to a new life in Canada. In the last 5 years, Canada experienced a high influx of asylum claimants arriving from Turkey. Despite of increasing numbers, there have been no studies that have explored their post-migration…

Problem-based learning (PBL) has been effectively used within BME education, though there are several challenges in its implementation within courses with larger enrollments. Furthermore, the sudden transition to online learning from the COVID-19 pandemic introduced additional challenges in creating a similar PBL experience in an online…

Sleep problems of varying kind and severity, including both insomnias and parasomnias, are a commonly reported clinical problem among children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and, it is estimated that approximately 50-80% of children with ASD and their families are affected by such problems. Without effective treatment, these…

Despite the early onset of challenging behaviors, there is a lack of research investigating the function of challenging behavior in toddlers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and developmental disabilities (DDs). The current study evaluated group differences in the frequency and severity of five functions of challenging behavior (i.e.,…

This article shares a case study of an experiential learning framework designed specifically for supporting learning in courses focused on human and environmental justice. We argue that our educational practices must substantially change to be accountable to each other as we address social issues and explore societal solutions. Findings from…

Students with school refusal behavior (SRB) often present complex cases that include variations of internalizing (anxiety and depression) and externalizing (opposition and defiance) mental health struggles. Historically, incongruent classification methods and terminology have hindered the progress of effectively or consistently assessing SRB.…

This study was designed to determine the effectiveness of using a three-step prompting procedure to teach instruction-following related to on-task behavior in children with autism in a group setting. An additional purpose of the study was to determine if teaching instruction-following using the three-step prompting procedure had concurrent effects…
