With the emergence of COVID-19, public interest in data visualization has surged. Data visualizations also, importantly, raised questions related to the data and the social context in which it occurred. Extending beyond but remaining connected to COVID-19, this context involved the racial and social inequality and economic disparities brought to…

To prepare their students to navigate online information about current issues, teachers must be able to critically read a range of diverse and complex data visualizations. This study presents findings from task-based interviews with 25 social studies teachers on their instructional beliefs about the use of diverse data visualization types. In the…

Textbook models of externalities tacitly assume that those externalities fall upon individuals "outside" of the market. In many contexts--including common undergraduate examples--externalities fall "inside" the market instead. Positive externalities associated with vaccination, for instance, accrue to other individuals who…

This paper describes a study conducted in Bachelor of Pre-primary education degree classroom during a Teaching of the Natural Sciences class. It shows how poster may be used as a teaching and learning tool for natural science. The main motivation that guided the research was the fact that half the teacher trainee students had been removed from the…

Purpose: This study aims to examine the use of data visualization as a tool to support practitioner-led organizational learning within the emergency services. The authors investigate how data visualization can support visual communication and the analysis of emergency response data to promote system improvement. Design/methodology/approach: The…

In today's globalised world, a single named language such as English, Norwegian or Spanish, no matter how 'big' it is, rarely satisfies all the needs of communication, cooperation, education or any other area of human life. Neither is the entire language repertoire plausible for everyday use, simply because it is impossible to use too many…

The mechanisms of dissemination of the counting frames in the teaching of mathematics in Spain during the nineteenth century are studied. José Mariano Vallejo and Pablo Montesino proposed them in order to facilitate an arithmetic initiation based on intuition, following Pestalozzi's proposals. The diffusion channels considered were pedagogical…

Due to the importance of digital multimodal composing (DMC) in the current educational context, the researchers in this study implemented infographic tasks in an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) course at a Vietnamese university and examined the EFL students' perceptions on individual and collaborative composing of infographics using Visme. The…

Antecedent exercise (AE) is an intervention used to promote moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and improve subsequent behavior in non-exercise contexts. We used withdrawal and multitreatment single case research designs to compare the effects of baseline, AE alone, and AE + visual supports condition. Two preschool-age boys participated in this…

Considering Gen Z's learning needs, primarily focusing on bachelor IT students, a STEAM-based methodology was developed and tested for teaching and learning the principal properties of the cardioid curve. The four-component methodology is based on visuality and combines frontal teaching techniques with educational robotics, dynamic geometry…

Purpose: Using the printed-word paradigm with eye tracking, this study conducted three experiments to examine (a) how multiple words in spoken overlapping ambiguity strings (OASs) are activated, (b) how word frequency influences the word segmentation of spoken OASs, and (c) whether the multiple words in spoken OASs are activated competitively or…

Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) are widely used in educational assessments and professional certification exams. Managing large repositories of MCQs, however, poses several challenges due to the high volume of questions and the need to maintain their quality and relevance over time. One of these challenges is the presence of questions that…

In this paper, we discuss what creativity may look like in the science classroom and what we learnt from teaching with student-generated diagrams to promote creativity in Year 7 Science lessons. As a result of this study, most students were able to communicate a deeper understanding of complex phenomena and were able to apply this knowledge both…

This narrative self-study explores an elementary school teacher's curriculum-making during a critical incident in their career (March 2020-May 2020 and August 2020-December 2020) teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using narrative inquiry and memory-work, I consider the tensions within curricular forces and identity and the ways in which my…

We explored how furnishings and technology impact pedagogical agility and student engagement across three flexible learning spaces. We collected various kinds of data from faculty and students teaching and learning in multiple classrooms, such as focus group interviews with students, faculty responses to reflection prompts, and pre- and…
