Global warming is the most serious problem of our age. The most permanent measure to be taken against this problem is to ensure that individuals receive an effective and well-equipped education, free from misconceptions, which are obstacles to the efficiency of education. In this study, it is aimed to develop a four-stage diagnostic test that can…

Global education is needed in American K-12 education, yet few teacher preparation programs (TPPs) provide preservice teachers (PSTs) induction on global pedagogies, and less so in math and science. This qualitative case study explored the use of classroom-based global collaboration (CBGC) pedagogies among 12 science and mathematics PSTs in a TPP.…

Investigating the integration of learning journals into a pre-service teacher education course to promote reflection was the overall goal of this study. Studies about evaluating students' journals have generally analyzed them using a holistic and general approach without examining their content and levels of reflection. This study focuses on both…

Modern society stands in need of a next-generation teacher, in the light of which this study acquires particular relevance. The paper investigates the urgent issue of modern pedagogy -- the study of the scientific foundations of the methodology for preparing future computer sciences teachers for the development of electronic educational resources.…

The higher education system of the Republic of Kazakhstan emphasizes the need for the development of institutional science, including the field of information technology, with a priority on fundamental research. Professional training of future computer science teachers requires them to know the range of tasks related to computer graphics, and the…

The study aimed to investigate the effect of computer simulation and animation-integrated instruction on preservice science teacher trainees' conceptual understanding and retention of acid-base chemistry and stoichiometry. A quantitative approach with a pretest-posttest-delayed test quasi-experimental design was used. In the study area, there were…

Science education and scientific literacy has gained enormous attention in the global educational scenario. In many cases, however, the holistic intent of science education is largely affected due to the lack of adequate understanding of the Nature of Science (NOS). This cross-sectional study was carried out to establish Bhutanese pre-service…

Integrating computational thinking (CT) into various disciplines via computer science (CS) methods such as unplugged, block-based, text-based, and physical programming is a trending topic in educational sciences. This study presents a perspective on implementing an unplugged computer science activity to integrate CT into mathematics education.…

For Nigeria to attain her Vision 20: 2020, the school curricula must change in line with the development in technology. Teachers should be able to adapt technology into the teaching and learning process. Three non-intellectual elements that affect the degree of integration of technology into teaching and learning are attitude toward computer,…

An emerging imperative for teacher preparation programs is the development of globally competent teacher candidates. Employing a convergent parallel mixed methods design, the researchers analyzed data from Asia Society's Global Competencies (2008) survey, critical reflection journals, course assignments, and field notes of 124 undergraduate…

STEM education is included in education programs by many countries on a global scale. Pre-service teachers are also expected to apply STEM education in their future classrooms. The aim of the research was to determine how pre-service science teachers perceived STEM education, whether they adopted it or not, whether they thought of themselves as…

Initial teacher education should mould well-rounded teachers proficient in scientific investigations, and advocate sustainability amid global ecosystems' degradation. The research sought to explore pre-service science teachers' views concerning scientific investigations and sustainable development goals, and synergy between skills and different…

Universities around the country are beginning to feel the need to add a global dimension to their programs. One way to prepare teachers to address the challenges associated with teaching children in a global age is through carefully structured, international study abroad where the candidates are immersed in another culture and school system. This…

Although teaching science outdoors is well established in global circles, its pedagogical value in Australia is less understood. This paper addresses this gap through its investigation of outdoor science teaching in a science method course in a teacher education program at an Australian regional university. As part of their coursework, pre-service…

Since it has been well established that students? learning and achievements depend hugely on teachers? ability and competency, this study was aimed at investigating the issues of computer literacy and mathematics competency in human resource development among pre-service teachers. Two test instruments, the mathematics competency test (MCT) and the…
