In a previous study, we tested social workers' abilities (n = 283) to forecast the likelihood of…

Critical Literature Pedagogy (CLP) is a teaching and assessment approach that promotes reading against the text and critically examining biases, norms, and stereotypes in literature. As literature teachers have limited knowledge of the use of CLP as an educational approach to teaching and assessment of literature, this practical action research…

The process of knowledge transfer within the cooperative classroom has not been widely studied. Previous studies indicate transfer is a multi-dimensional procedure that can spontaneously occur throughout any stage of learning and can be seen as a dynamic process (Hajian, 2019). This study examined educator-perceived transfer of knowledge and…

Prior research has highlighted the importance of smart learning in raising awareness and engagement about sustainable development. Nevertheless, few papers have focused on the impact of climate change simulation environments. In this paper, a systematic literature review has helped to shed the light on the research gaps and to propose a conceptual…

Due to the frequent use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in daily life, it is thought that primary school students acquire information about this concept from various sources. The way these sources present AI may affect students' perceptions of AI. In the study, it was aimed to examine the perceptions of third and fourth grade primary…

Chinese folk music, rich in cultural and historical significance, represents a vital element of the nation's intangible heritage. This study investigates the educational perspectives on the literacy of Chinese folk music recomposed for saxophone.

Background: The present study investigated staff perspectives on supporting individuals with intellectual disabilities with mental health relapse prevention. Methods: Eight staff with experience working with or supporting individuals engaged with a specialist mental health in intellectual disability (MHID) service (team member = 2, management…

This paper employs Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) as an analytical heuristic in exploring the internationally prevalent situation of teaching out-of-field. Drawing on interview transcripts, we use CHAT to frame the activity of a young teacher teaching mathematics out-of-field in a small rural K-12 school in Australia. We identify and…

Unlike other technologies that augment human physical skills and abilities, artificial intelligence (AI) technologies interact with human thinking skills nurtured through various educational processes. Hence, advances in these technologies challenge the education sector to reimagine the suitable intellectual formation of students in the AI age. It…
