In this article, we analyse a lesson on Thales's theorem in a Chilean secondary school classroom through the combination of two theories: Mathematics Teachers' Specialised Knowledge (ThMTSK) and Mathematical Working Spaces (ThMWS). Both theories, first separately and then in relation to one another, are used to analyse two tasks proposed by the…

This study examines the integration of a Science, Mathematics, and Technology (SMT) Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) within Thailand's Education Sandbox initiative, established under the 2019 Education Sandbox Act, to foster innovation, reduce inequalities, and decentralize education management. The research aims to adapt and expand the SMT CBC…

Significance importance continues to be attributed to inclusion of work-integrated learning (WIL) in Higher Education Institutions' (HEI) curriculum with acknowledgement of the role it plays in enhancing students' learning experiences. However, in Uganda, HEIs implement WIL without stipulated policies to guide its implementation and inclusion.…

This article seeks to explain how Aotearoa New Zealand moved from a consensus that the New Zealand Curriculum (NZC) should grant a high degree of autonomy to teachers, to an emerging view that it ought to be more prescriptive about content. To do this, it takes an assemblage approach to policy analysis, understanding policies as constantly…

The article offers a critique of the Knowledge and Understanding sub-strand of the revised Australian Curriculum: Geography for Years F-6, due to be implemented in Australian schools in 2024. As a foundation for this critique, the article first discusses what should be the aims of geography in primary schools, in order to provide some criteria for…

In this paper, we consider mathematical competitions for pre-university students, such as the "International Mathematical Olympiad" (IMO) and many national and regional Olympiads following a similar model. The problems proposed in these contests must be solvable by 'elementary' methods (i.e., without using calculus) and belong…

In Singapore, education is regarded as an investment instead of a social service. Singapore's Education System has evolved over time and so have school mathematics curricula in Singapore. Mathematics education in Singapore schools in the twenty-first century is still going through a period of change. Mathematics is a compulsory subject up to Grade…

This comparative case study explores how 18 state education agencies (SEAs) support school districts in advancing standards-based elementary science reform. We identify how SEAs understand their work in advancing elementary science reform and describe how SEAs sought to engage districts in bridging from standards to classroom practice. Based on…

The teaching of anatomy is relevant to many fields and anatomy teachers are in demand. Individuals with a graduate anatomy education are some of the most sought-after candidates to fill open teaching positions, but it is unclear as to what constitutes a graduate anatomy education. The purpose of this study was to investigate the components of a…

The expectations placed on teachers and teacher educators have increased particularly in relation to education topics such as relationships and sex education. One group of four pre-service teachers and a teacher educator based in an Australian university studying a Bachelor of Education (primary) share their experiences of teaching and learning in…

Advances in digital technologies coupled with the explosion of data are transforming the marketing education landscape at a rapid pace. Given the scale and speed of digital disruption in today's industry, marketing academics face ongoing challenges of addressing the theory-practice gap, which will only accelerate. The purpose of the current study…

Several studies have indicated that stakeholder engagement could ensure the successful adoption of learning analytics (LA). Considering that researchers and tech developers may not be aware of how LA tools can derive meaningful and actionable information for everyday use, these studies suggest that participatory approaches based on human-centred…

This paper explores the incorporation of workbased learning in the Digital and Technology Solutions Specialist (DTSS) Master's degree apprenticeship programme in a London-based Higher Education Institution. Specifically, innovative work-based assessments are introduced aimed at utilising workplace resources while meeting academic requirements.…

Both lecture and laboratory courses of biochemistry are important professional courses for undergraduates with biology related majors. Course optimization and update is crucial but challenging, especially for the laboratory course. Although taught separately, here we showed a strategy to bridge the two courses and promote the improvement of both.…

Despite the well-documented evidence on the importance of parent engagement for academic achievement, emotional well-being, and social inclusion, as well as interest among policymakers to tap into the benefits of parent engagement at the system level, there is still a widespread lack of support for teachers to be able to engage effectively with…
