This paper introduces a teaching process to develop students' problem-solving and programming efficacy in an introductory computer programming course. The proposed teaching practice provides step-by-step guidelines on using worked-out examples of code to demonstrate the applications of programming concepts. These coding demonstrations explicitly…

Mobile tools are integrated into teacher education settings to provide contextualized, connected, and collaborative teacher learning practices. In this case study, the video-enhanced observation (VEO) app was used in a science methods course to facilitate preservice teachers' reciprocal peer-teaching of inquiry-based lesson study. This research…

Using expert reviews and item response theory (IRT), this study evaluated the language- and culture-related construct-irrelevant variance and reliability of the 2019 TIMSS sense of school belonging scale (SSBS) for grades 4 and 8. The five items of the SSBS, which were identical for both grades, were reviewed for the language- and culture-related…

Background: Since the outbreak of COVID-19, universities in Hong Kong have implemented online and hybrid teaching modes, making computer-assisted language learning (CALL) a primary way for English learning. Research on English learning motivation and self-regulation has seldom considered learners' emotions (satisfaction and preparedness) and the…

Emotions such as anxiety, fear, and frustration can interfere with cognitive processing and hinder our ability to learn and perform well on tasks. Mathematics is a school subject that could generate various emotions in students. This study examined mathematics achievement emotions of students across gender, grade level, and academic performance.…

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine at-risk students in a small rural high school and school district, and the implementation of a response to intervention program at the high school called CAT Time. CAT Time is approximately 40 mins long and occurs four times per week. Teachers can request a student participate in the CAT Time…

The purpose of this qualitative study was to identify which skillsets a successful teacher possesses to help students positively work through behavioral situations rather than immediately exit the student from the classroom.
