Nevertheless, there are neither international, nor Hungarian studies about Kolping pedagogy and its pioneer character that makes it a special actor among the faith-based schools, which aim to reduce the rate of…

The Colleague AI platform introduces a groundbreaking Rubric Generation function designed to streamline how educators create and use rubrics for instructional and assessment purposes. This feature uses artificial intelligence (AI) to produce standards-based rubrics tailored to course content for formative and summative evaluations. By automating…

This study seeks to explore the impact of learning scenarios on pre-service science teachers' (PSSTs) perceptions of constructivist learning and their dispositions toward instructional technologies. Adopting a single-group pretest-posttest experimental design, a quantitative research methodology was employed. The participants consisted of…

When international students study at United States higher education institutions, they often encounter challenges that impact acculturation and academic success. This study applied community-based research to explore these students' experiences and discuss solutions in the form of culturally responsive pedagogy (CRP). I conducted semi-structured…

Mathematics is a core component of cognition. Unfortunately, most young children and teachers cannot access research-based early childhood mathematics resources. Building on a quarter-century of research, we are developing and evaluating an innovative, integrated, intelligent, and interactive system of technologies based on empirically validated…

Background: Despite the field's rich history and relationship with the concept of character education, to date, there would appear to be no in-depth empirical case studies that describe in pedagogical terms, how a physical educator can cultivate character through a school-based physical education setting. Purpose: The purpose of this…

This multi-stage study introduces a comprehensive set of considerations to inform task design for pedagogical purposes in computer-based L2 listening environments. Using a 360-degree approach to consideration construction and validation, which included bottom-up and top-down perspectives, this study engaged participants with diverse backgrounds in…

There is increasing recognition that the underachievement and disengagement of students, particularly Maori and Pasifika, in New Zealand schools is in large part a result of systematic factors that disadvantage these students. In response to the urgent need for change in our classrooms, the dialogic highway is a research-based approach to reading…

Plate tectonics is the unifying theory of modern Earth science, but many university students have misconceptions about it that introductory geoscience classes often fail to correct. We developed a 5-to-12-hour-long hands-on active-learning curriculum for an introductory geoscience class for education majors. The curriculum includes: (1) A…

The pursuit of enhanced teaching competency in higher education necessitates understanding multifaceted factors that influence effective teaching practices. This study investigated how AI efficacy, social media use and classroom dynamics enhance teaching competency among higher education faculty. Grounded in Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, we…

Despite the recognised importance of communicative competence in language acquisition, many English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners persistently grapple with affective barriers such as speaking anxiety, shyness, and demotivation, alongside underdeveloped social-emotional competence (SEC), challenges that traditional speaking instruction…

This study investigates the interplay between student reasoning and instructional strategies in trigonometry education. A qualitative case study was conducted to examine how Grade 10 students employ various reasoning approaches -- deductive, inductive, abductive, analogical, and algorithmic -- when solving trigonometry problems. Each approach…

Nowadays, many universities around the globe have offered distance learning to their students in addition to the traditional face-to-face learning mode. Furthermore, a number of universities have multiple campuses, thereby requiring these universities to adopt a multi-campus learning model. This setting creates numerous teaching and learning…

The usage of digital media, especially tablet apps, is currently a major concern in educational settings. A controversial discussion is also taking place in relation to mathematics education at primary schools. While on the one hand there are empirical findings on helpful isolated examples and related subject-didactic potentials of digital media,…

Purpose: This study explores the key determinants and their impact on the effectiveness of successful occupational competency assessments in Ethiopia.
