Students' conceptual understanding and mathematical process skills can be improved through digital games in mathematics education. The starting point of this study is the idea of having students encounters this kind of environment. The study didactically describes the process of 6th-grade students' experiences of a digital game-based learning…

This multiple-case-studies research explored a multimodal approach to teaching music to pupils (from 4 to 18 years old) with severe or multiple disabilities. By combining music with, for example, tactile stimulation, movement, or visuals, meaning-making processes in music of these pupils was stimulated, helping them to understand the internal…

This paper addresses an important consideration for promoting equitable engineering instruction: understanding how teachers contextualize curricular materials to draw upon student and community resources. We present a descriptive case study of two 5th grade teachers who co-designed a Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)-aligned curricular unit…

YouTube has grown into an unprecedented music industry where informal learning practices converge among young musicians now considered authentic internet (micro)celebrities. Due to the rise of music video trends on the platform and the educative demands to explore youth interaction on the internet, this study analyses the self-perception of…

Statistics have shown that at least 50% of all teachers leave the profession within the first five years, with higher departure rates in certain subjects (e.g. science and mathematics, special education, English language development) (Ingersoll, 2003) and in under-resourced schools with traditionally underserved students of color (Redding &…

This study examines the extent of influence educational and technological factors have on the level of engagement of the video-based pedagogical responses, and by extension the level of acceptance and use of video technology in teaching, in the context of secondary school teachers in Amman city, Jordan. Educational factors considered were type of…

We adopt five observation categories, namely classroom management, classroom environment, communication, mathematical content and tasks, to analyse four in-service secondary mathematics teachers' noticing upon watching video episodes showing an actual mathematics lesson that implemented 3D Printing Pens for teaching and learning shape and space.…

Past MOOC research has tended to focus on learning outcomes valued in traditional higher education settings, such as achievement and retention. This study recognises that student ratings are an important alternative outcome measure in MOOCs. This paper adopted a semiautomatic text mining approach to collect and analyse 8475 ratings and reviews…
