This research aimed to investigate the components and indicators of innovative leadership of principals of primary school, to explore the current state and desire state of enhance innovative leadership of principals of primary school. And to design a program and its evaluation program to enhance innovative leadership of principals of primary…

Although there is evidence for a close link between early phonological skills and the development of vocabulary and decoding abilities, it is less clear which factors modulate the development of phonological skills. This study longitudinally explored the relation of contextual family variables on the development of phonological skills in 104…

One way to help frame a focus on problems instead of things is the Grand Challenges concept, which has been used in many other fields to date. Grand Challenges are an articulation of large-scale, complex problems that may be addressed through coordinated and sustained efforts but require long-term effort. Often, the articulation of Grand…

The purpose of this paper is to present an empirical CAL project, HOLD ON, which developed leadership towards social, economic and ecological sustainability. The latter became a target area in the 2018 reform of the Swedish preschool's national curriculum, Lpfo18. A "Whole School Approach" (WSA) and "Education for Sustainable…

Build resilience in your students, starting in the elementary grades, so they develop the skills to overcome challenges and thrive in school and beyond. Bestselling author Dr. Brad Johnson presents a strength-based approach to resilience, showing that it's much more than bouncing back but involves adapting and growing along the way. He shows the…

Digitalisation led to the formation of such phenomenon as distance education, which is widely implemented in schools and universities. Like many other countries during the COVID-19 pandemic, countries of Central Asia imposed a ban on social contact, which became a reason for the wide introduction of distance learning ? universities. In this paper,…

Hands-on activities promote interest in engineering, but their use in primary education is under pressure due to doubts about their effect on learning. Based on the Challenge Point Framework, we hypothesized that an adaptive approach in which a pupil starts with tasks at its level of prior knowledge would raise the learning results of hands-on…

Purpose: This research aims to investigate the role played by open distance learning (ODL) in supporting the professional development of in-service teachers in the field of English as a Second Language (ESL) at a Malaysian higher education institution. In a rapidly evolving educational landscape, continuous professional development is essential…

Peer interaction offers critical learning opportunities for preschool students, yet exposure to peers of different skill levels varies within and across classrooms. We explore two ways peers may affect learning: differences in who children play with in a classroom and differences in student composition across classrooms. We find that playing with…

Mathematics teachers' professional learning is moving away from prescriptive professional development (PD) toward collaborative, practice-based models--such as video-clubs and lesson co-design--which provide teachers with space and time to discuss problems of practice among peers. Some models, which we term "process-oriented",…

Peer interaction offers critical learning opportunities for preschool students, yet exposure to peers of different skill levels varies within and across classrooms. We explore two ways peers may affect learning: differences in who children play with in a classroom and differences in student composition across classrooms. We find that playing with…

With only about a third of students in US public schools achieving the NAEP Proficient level, many educators believe students are not getting enough reading practice. However, how much reading practice is enough? This study quantifies the relationship between the amount of book reading and the expected number of words learned. We collected 45…

Background: Previous studies have indicated that encouraging learners to teach to their peers has been proven effective in second language learning. However, to date, no research has focused on how learners teaching to peers of varying proficiency levels impacts video learning performance and the cognitive neuroscience mechanisms of learners.…

This research aims to conduct a systematic and rigorous review of published articles on how the diagnosis and the design of micro-courses can enhance teachers' digital competence in universities and higher education institutions. The objective is to synthesize existing evidence on training strategies for Teacher Digital Competence in higher…

"Self-Regulated Learning--Insights and Innovations" explores the multifaceted nature of self-regulated learning (SRL) in today's dynamic educational landscape. This book serves as both a reflection on current SRL practices and a roadmap for future advancements. It offers a comprehensive look at SRL across diverse educational settings,…
