Metacognition in science teaching involves processes that include self-awareness and self-regulation. Metacognition enables the teachers to facilitate student learning and to reflect on their teaching in order to enable themselves to improve or to make any changes to their teaching. In particular, teaching activities, especially in the 21st…

This qualitative study takes place at a regional public university and partner public K-12 school district in the Southwestern United States. The study asked the research question: How have field experiences, in senior block courses, influenced/shaped students' perceptions in the semester before student teaching? Reflective data was collected from…

We will present cultural transposition as a particular perspective to frame the use of foreign mathematics education practices as an opportunity for questioning the didactic practices of one's own cultural context. This requires a process activated by researchers, who deconstruct the cultural layers underpinning the foreign education practice…

This study aimed to provide first responses to the question of whether the pedagogical heritage of an instrumental music teacher, in the present case the great violinist and violin teacher Veda Reynolds, can be reconstructed by analyzing and comparing the discourse of their former students. To address this question, an ergo-didactic approach was…

As noted in the introduction, this book is concerned with resistance to professional guidance that teachers may evince as they hold rigidly to an 'inherited script' that undermines the flexibility needed to respond to the emergent needs of learners. We propose that this resistance, and the sense of excessive entitlement that propels it, are…

This interview protocol includes five steps to conduct an empathy interview. In the Empathize Phase of designing an inclusive computing pathway, empathy interviews are conducted. Empathy interviews allow you to hear the stories and experiences of someone who will use what you are designing and learn about their realities, in this case, a student.…

Education, in its many forms, is an institution that mirrors the society around it, including its patterns of privilege and marginalization (Marx, et al., 2017). The purpose of this article is to provide a reflection of my experiences while working alongside four interns from an alternative school hired to work for an agricultural internship. I…

This case study attempts to explore the impact of the reflective practices (reflection in, on, and for action) on pre-service science teachers' (PSTs') classroom teaching practices. To this end, ten PSTs majoring in Science Teacher Education Program participated in this study. In the study, the author designed a classroom teaching practice process…

Against the background of a data-driven education system that has detrimental effects on teachers' personal and professional lives, we report on an exploratory project in which seven primary teachers in England shared experiences of literacy teaching through generating 'small' data visualised on postcards. Thematic analysis of their data-sharing…

This edited book has been compiled in honor of Thomas S. C. Farrell, one of the most distinguished scholars in theorizing and researching language teacher reflection. It examines teacher reflection in three main areas: policies, practices and the impact of teacher reflection on teachers' practices and professional development. The data-driven…

Racism is not an anomaly, rather it is an ordinary feature of our world and is a symptom of white supremacy. This article draws from critical race theory and critical pedagogy to make sense of this assertion and to contemplate possible responses. Using an autoethnographic research paradigm, we draw from our own contrasting experiences and…

Deliberate college teaching can empower learners and help instructors foster welcoming and inclusive classrooms for all students. Yet, despite a growing literature on effective pedagogies, college teaching practices are largely outdated and often fail to respond to students' needs. This grounded theory examined the teaching approaches of 25…

Reflection has been a common professional learning practice for teachers within the history of education and learning. The purpose of this study was to understand how high-performing experienced teachers engage in reflection. The study utilized a qualitative phenomenological approach from a general phenomenological perspective. Seven…

Teaching is a complex profession; and therefore, micro-teaching is needed to scale down its complexity to train pre-service teachers for future real teaching. However, micro-teaching experiences without reflection are insufficient for building or developing professional teaching skills. Therefore, this book aims at building and developing…

Purpose: Most of the current literature investigates workplace-based formal and informal learning separately; thus, the relationship between these two types of learning remains unclear. This study aims to fill this research gap, drawing on self-determination theory to bridge teachers' formal and informal learning and uncover the relationship…
