Sabrina Girletti; Marie-Aude Lefer – Interpreter and Translator Trainer, 2024
In recent years, machine translation post-editing (MTPE or PE for short) has been steadily gaining ground in the language industry. However, studies that examine translators' perceptions of, and attitudes towards, MTPE paint a somewhat negative picture, with PE pricing methods and rates being a major source of dissatisfaction. While the European…

Anthony Howcroft; Daniel King – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
Students come into the classroom with a variety of background knowledge. Therefore, it is imperative that educators are able to help all students, regardless of their familiarity with the content. Since it can be challenging for some large enrollment classes to schedule recitation classes after lectures due to logistical constraints, this study…

Jessica Williams; Thomastine Sarchet; Dawn Walton – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2024
More U.S. community college students are enrolling without the requisite reading skills to be successful. Deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) students are following a similar pattern with a little less than half requiring remedial instruction when entering college. College-age readers were the first population that we studied to learn about reading and…

Sarah Bichler; Michael Sailer; Elisabeth Bauer; Jan Kiesewetter; Hanna Härtl; Martin R. Fischer; Frank Fischer – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Teachers routinely observe and interpret student behavior to make judgements about whether and how to support their students' learning. Simulated cases can help pre-service teachers to gain this skill of diagnostic reasoning. With 118 pre-service teachers, we tested whether participants rate simulated cases presented in a serial-cue case format as…

Anne Fensie; Teri St. Pierre; Jennifer Jain; Asli Sezen-Barrie – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2024
Adult learners are a significant proportion of distance learners and many of these students are working mothers. Several instructional design models center the learner, and this requires understanding the learner needs, strengths, and context. There is a gap in the literature describing the experience of modern working mother students in distance…

Peyton Juhnke; Tobin LeBlanc Haley – Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2024
The purpose of this paper is to provide a review of existing scholarship on the Indigenization of Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR). Providing a careful review of this literature contributes a missing map of this field of scholarship and shares key insights for scholars. This is a timely contribution. While the assessment of prior…

Yeo, Jun-Hui; Cho, I.-Hsuan; Hwang, Gwo-Haur; Yang, Hsi-Hsun – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2022
Gender and prior knowledge may affect students' performance and motivation when simulations and games are used for learning. Accommodations should be made for students of different genders and with different levels of prior knowledge. A simulation digital game about the food chain concept geared for elementary school students was developed for…

Klein, Perry; Bildfell, Ashley; Dombroski, Jill D.; Giese, Christine; Sha, Kristen Wing-Yan; Thompson, Serena C. – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2022
Experimental research on strategy instruction for beginning writers has only recently begun. This study investigated the role of self-regulation instruction in Grade 1 strategy learning. In a pretest-post-test quasi-experiment, 120 Grade 1 students participated in a unit of study on personal narrative in one of three conditions: (1) Self-Regulated…

Schoenbohm, Lindsay M.; McMillan, Mitchell – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2022
In this integrative, team-based capstone project, students in an upper year Tectonics course built a planet of their own design from the basic concepts of plate tectonics. They created a tectonic map complete with plate boundaries, continental-ocean boundaries, motion vectors, and hot spot traces. In subsequent weeks, students produced a geologic…

Muimongkol, Supreeya Chamnanuea; Subramaniam, Karthigeyan; Wickstrom, Carol D. – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2022
The purpose of the study was to investigate prospective early childhood teachers' conceptions of teaching science, and thus identify their strategies for enabling their future pre-K to 3rd grade students' construction of science content. For the purpose of this study, we subscribed to the view of conceptions of teaching as having dimensions and…

Turkoguz, Suat; Ercan, Izel – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
This study investigated the effect of visual anthropomorphic stories on students' understanding of the particulate nature of matter and their level of anthropomorphic discourse. This study employed a quasi-experimental research design with pretest and posttest control groups. Science activities supported by visual anthropomorphic stories were…

Griffin, Nicole J. – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Teachers' values, beliefs, and self-confidence are critical components of decisions educators make every day. The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between secondary science teachers' epistemology and self-efficacy on science instructional practices and conceptualization of student research experiences rooted in the Next…

Södervik, Ilona; Vilppu, Henna; Boshuizen, Henny; Murtonen, Mari – International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, 2022
To support university students' learning, teaching should build on students' prior knowledge. Therefore, teachers need skills to pay attention to students' knowledge in teaching-learning situations. Teachers' underlying conceptual knowledge affects the way they see and interpret situations in classrooms, which is called professional vision. This…

Ekeh, Martin C.; Venketsamy, Roy; Thuketana, Nkhensani S.; Joubert, Ina – South African Journal of Childhood Education, 2022
Background: Teachers are responsible for developing and enhancing communication skills amongst young learners. Unfortunately, the overly structured pedagogy which many teachers adopt inhibits the optimal development of oral communication skills. Hence, the researchers investigated ways of strengthening group-work play-based pedagogy to stimulate…
