This paper explores the application and efficacy of task-based teaching (TBT) methods within the context of internet-based distance learning for English, with a particular focus on integrating environmental education. Through an empirical study involving two groups of college students, the authors examine how TBT can enhance students' language…

The rapid development of online education has underscored the necessity of data-driven teaching functions for enhancing teaching quality and efficiency. This paper investigates the role of data-driven approaches in online education, with a particular focus on the practical application of data for evaluating learning outcomes. It highlights the…

Integrated Performance Assessments (IPAs) are increasingly prevalent in world language instruction. While researchers have investigated various dimensions of IPAs, only one previous study has analyzed the discursive content of associated teacher-learner co-constructive feedback sessions (Adair-Hauck & Troyan, 2013). The present study examines…

Modern software companies prioritize high-quality products for competitiveness, and Software Process Improvement (SPI) models help achieve this. In Brazil, the Brazilian Software Process Improvement Model ("MPS-SW" model) is widely used, but its complexity and extensive documentation make it challenging to teach in undergraduate courses.…

Opportunities to respond (OTR) offer a useful approach to actively engage all students, including those with emotional and behavioral disorders, by enhancing their learning experiences and effectively reducing student problematic behavior due to lack of academic engagement. In this article, we discuss common challenges faced by teachers in…

This article explores the practice of peace education within the Korean context, where national division has exerted significant cultural and structural impacts. By interviewing South Korean teachers actively involved in peace education, this study examines how such education can contribute to peacebuilding in a politically divisive environment.…

This article traces the evolution of English Language Teacher Education (ELTE) in Colombia over the past six decades. It critically examines how foreign-established methodologies and policies have shaped it, often ignoring local sociocultural realities. This influence incorporates diverse knowledge systems, practices, and processes of being and…

This article provides a model for robust student affairs program assessment using diverse data sources, multiple outcomes, propensity score matching, and cost analysis. Contemporary outcome-based assessment in student affairs requires equity-minded approaches paired with methods that support causal inference and actionable results. As a guide for…

At the international level, philosophical questions are increasingly used to develop students' critical thinking, particularly in elementary school. Yet, despite this growing interest, their implementation in the classroom remains complex and raises several challenges for teachers. This article aims to support teaching practices by identifying the…

Current reforms in science education envision students making sense of real-world phenomena in ways that leverage their ideas, experiences, and identities. Formative assessment is essential to this vision; however, we are still coming to understand how formative assessment design and enactment in classroom activity systems can support this vision.…

This study investigates how different combinations of practice-based activities and visual representations affect students' learning about seasonal changes. We adopted a pre-post 3 × 2 experimental design in which we first randomly assigned 12 intact 9th-grade classes (N = 337 students) to either a "practice-based activity" or a "no…

Researchers have documented the efficacy of the virtual-representational-abstract (VRA) instructional sequence to support students with disabilities as well as those at-risk in mathematics as well as feasibility of online delivery of mathematics interventions. However, most of the existing research involves secondary students and…

This reflection offers a student perspective on integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) in graduate education, focusing on collaboration rather than replacement. Drawing on my experience in a doctoral seminar on the intellectual history of educational technology, I examine four key instructional practices that shaped meaningful AI use:…

This study investigated the effects of design thinking STEAM (DT-STEAM) education on artificial intelligence (AI) learning and creativity. A total of 59 university students enrolled in two courses as part of a teacher education program at a public university were recruited. A nonequivalent group pretest and posttest design was used to perform a…

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers numerous benefits to the field of language education, making it crucial to understand the factors influencing language teachers' adoption of these technologies. This study investigates the determinants of language teachers' adoption of AI chatbots in educational settings. Drawing on the Unified Theory of…
