Hicks, Michael D. – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2022
Analogical reasoning has played an important role in the development of modern mathematics. However, there has been critique of analogies for the purpose of learning new mathematics. In this article, I counter that students can productively reason by analogy to learn new mathematics and even develop new mathematics themselves. I display examples…

Golding, Clinton – Teaching in Higher Education, 2019
We expect our students to learn different ways of thinking, such as historical empathy or scientific reasoning, reflection, critical analysis, or clinical reasoning. But how do we discern if they have learned these ways of thinking when thinking is often abstract, tacit and seemingly invisible? In this conceptual and theoretical article, I argue…

McCune, Velda; Tauritz, Rebekah; Boyd, Sharon; Cross, Andrew; Higgins, Peter; Scoles, Jenny – Teaching in Higher Education, 2023
This paper reports on teachers' perspectives on preparing students for working with 'wicked' problems (Rittel and Webber [1973]. 'Dilemmas in a General Theory of Planning.' "Policy Sciences" 4 (2): 155-169.). These problems are complex, lack clear boundaries, and attempts to solve them -- generally by bringing together multiple…

The centrality of learners and their learning in contemporary educational discourse and practice, seems to suggest that the self of the student should be at the heart of the educational endeavour.

Michie, Michael; Rioux, Joël; Hogue, Michelle – Teaching Science, 2021
We suggest that two interpretations of time -- linear time and cyclical time -- that complement each other when planning lessons, can be used in both Western and Indigenous science. The idea of time in the Australian Curriculum: Science is examined and seen to be primarily associated with the Western science tradition, so it is suggested that the…

Fooladi, Erik C.; Tuomisto, Maiju; Haapaniemi, Janni – International Journal of Science Education, 2023
Food, cooking, and eating are commonly used as contexts or legitimations to teach and communicate science. However, for teaching to have contextual credibility, the relationship between subject and context is a relevant area of study. The present contribution describes an analysis of curricula from three Nordic countries shedding light on…
