Despite large-scale studies demonstrating the benefits of teacher interaction to support young children's learning, intentional teaching (IT) in early childhood education (ECE) remains a contested concept. Given the different perspectives associated with IT, the purpose of this study was to undertake a scoping review of the literature focused on…

Blockchain, which is a disruptive technology, affects many technologies, and it will affect many other technologies. Main property of blockchain technologies is assuring trust without central authorization. This is achieved through immutable data and decentralization. Moreover, blockchain is founded on the principles of cryptography, which…

The research-to-practice gap occurs when practices supported as effective by research are infrequently used in applied settings, such as classrooms. This gap may be due to teachers preferring to use practices they find to be trustworthy, usable, and accessible. Instead of relying on research, teachers frequently use resources from other teachers,…

This Dissertation in Practice explored the impact of deploying a Socioscientific Issues (SSI) teaching methodology in undergraduate general science education. It was motivated by my desire to accrue positive increases in educational outcomes, and to assess its efficacy in developing critical Socioscientific Reasoning (SSR) skills, for my students,…

The learning style myth is a commonly held myth that matching instruction to a student's "learning style" will result in improved learning, while providing mismatched instruction will result in suboptimal learning. The present study used a short online reasoning exercise about the efficacy of multimodal instruction to investigate the…

This teaching tip aims to build awareness of using a text's structure as a framework for building students' reading comprehension. The authors detail the Framework for Accelerating the Strategic Comprehension of Text (FASCT) to support elementary students reading comprehension abilities by explicitly teaching students to use the structure of a…

We draw on administrative data from the country of Colombia to assess differences in student learning in online and traditional on-campus college programs. The Colombian context is uniquely suited to study this topic, as students take an exit examination at the end of their studies. We can therefore directly compare performance on the exit exam…

We draw on administrative data from the country of Colombia to assess differences in student learning in online and traditional on-campus college programs. The Colombian context is uniquely suited to study this topic, as students take a compulsory exit examination at the end of their studies. We can therefore directly compare the performance on…

Assessment data from the Department of Education shows that reading performance continues to be a concern for many Colorado students after the third grade.
