360°(degree-)-videos inherit interesting potentials for teaching competence development. Reflecting on personal teaching performance from multiple perspectives potentially increases the depth in situated reflection and provides new learning insights for pre-service teachers. In this light, this paper describes a case study conducted at the…

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study is to examine how 3rd-8th grade teachers describe their use of educational technology for experiential learning in mathematics in the Southwestern United States.

Research on multidisciplinary teaching practices is often descriptive and there is a lack of theories to support teachers. General Didactics…

This article aims to build paradigms, strategies, and stages of learning models that can reduce learning barriers. The learning process can benefit changes in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects for the better. This research was conducted because it saw the reality of the problem of low learning achievement. This was qualitative study…

Introduction: Undergraduate psychology programs offer opportunities for the development of knowledge and specialized skills in order to equip students to work with diverse populations.

We describe an innovative preorientation curriculum (POC) for a Master of Biostatistics (MB) program. The goal of the POC is to fill critical skills gaps for students entering the MB program from heterogeneous backgrounds so they are prepared to engage in the program's rigorous, fast-paced training upon arrival. To achieve this goal, we introduce…

As cultural and linguistic diversity (CLD) in schools increases so does the demand for more qualified teachers.
