Kloos, Heidi; Baker, Heather; Waltzer, Talia – Educational Psychology Review, 2019
In the current paper, we develop an approach to early science pedagogy that is based on insights about how complex adaptive systems function. Complexity approaches have an important advantage over traditional information-processing approaches: They anticipate the proverbial 'mind with a mind of its own' without having to postulate exclusively…

Ludlow, Larry; Ell, Fiona; Cochran-Smith, Marilyn; Newton, Avery; Trefcer, Kaitlin; Klein, Kelsey; Grudnoff, Lexie; Haigh, Mavis; Hill, Mary F. – Complicity: An International Journal of Complexity and Education, 2017
Our purpose is to provide an exploratory statistical representation of initial teacher education as a complex system comprised of dynamic influential elements. More precisely, we reveal what the system looks like for differently-positioned teacher education stakeholders based on our framework for gathering, statistically analyzing, and graphically…

Sahan, Anselmus – International Journal of Language Education, 2020
This study tried to investigate the application of the Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) in analyzing the relationships between the markers used in the four texts and identify the types of the marker relationship and their functions in the whole clauses. It found out that RST operated with highly generalized Rhetorical Relations, such as…

Cartwright, Kelly B.; Lee, Sherman A.; Taboada Barber, Ana; DeWyngaert, Laura U.; Lane, Amanda B.; Singleton, Terrain – Reading Research Quarterly, 2020
Reading comprehension is an incredibly complex, purposeful activity that involves simultaneous orchestration and integration of multiple processes. However, dominant perspectives suggest that two clusters of skills, word reading and language comprehension, account for successful reading. Such two-factor models are problematic because they do not…

Asada, Yuka; Gilmet, Kelsey; Welter, Christina; Massuda-Barnett, Gina; Kapadia, Devangna A.; Fagen, Michael – Health Education & Behavior, 2019
Structural change approaches, also called policy, systems, and environmental change approaches, have been increasingly promoted and adopted by public health agencies in the past decade. These interventions require attention to multilevel, complex and contextual influences on individual and community health outcomes, requiring a sound theoretical…

Tessa DeLaquil – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This project aimed to understand the relationship between theoretical interpretations of multiple values and ideas of the universities from within and across different disciplines and their influence on higher education and its internationalisation within the real international organisation (IO) policy context. With this foundation, I derived a…

Sproesser, Ute; Vogel, Markus; Dörfler, Tobias; Eichler, Andreas – International Journal of STEM Education, 2022
Background: Functional thinking is characterized as a specific way of thinking in relationships, dependencies, and changes. Hence, beyond mathematics, it is also crucial for other (STEM) disciplines as well as for everyday situations. In particular, dealing with different representations of functions and changing between them are core…

Cecilia Axell; Astrid Berg – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2024
Although digital technology is an important part of young people's lives, previous research implies that they have a limited understanding of what programming is and its connection to the digital devices they encounter every day. In order to create conditions for meaningful teaching in and about programming in technology education, more knowledge…

Yaghoubi, Mahan; Farrokh, Parisa – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2022
This study was an attempt to investigate Iranian EFL learners' private speech across proficiency levels and gender while doing reading comprehension tasks. Moreover, it was an attempt to examine the different forms of private speech produced by Iranian English learners. Six forms of private speech were coded and analyzed: affective markers,…

Lussier, Kristie O'Donnell; Assaf, Lori Czop; Hoff, Meagan – FIRE: Forum for International Research in Education, 2019
The purpose of this study was to explore how preservice teachers (PST) became aware of literacies in global and local contexts and to understand how PST conceive of literacy after experiencing an international service learning (ISL) study abroad program in rural South Africa. For this qualitative grounded theory study, we used critical literacy…

Iretzberger, Manuel – Journal of Political Science Education, 2021
The social sciences increasingly utilize film as a teaching tool. This is reflected by a growing amount of publications on the topic, which are predominantly reporting positive results. Incorporating the medium seems to allow for more adaptive and engaging ways of teaching. Judging from the existing literature, however, its application in the…

von Davier, Matthias; Tyack, Lillian; Khorramdel, Lale – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
Automated scoring of free drawings or images as responses has yet to be used in large-scale assessments of student achievement. In this study, we propose artificial neural networks to classify these types of graphical responses from a TIMSS 2019 item. We are comparing classification accuracy of convolutional and feed-forward approaches. Our…

Brooks, Benjamin – Issues in Interdisciplinary Studies, 2022
We are living through a very difficult moment in human history where we are having to make almost daily decisions about our health, occupations, environment, economics, and democracy, while being bombarded with disinformation, misinformation, and "alternative facts" relative to those decisions. A highly developed information literacy…

Stuart-Buttle, Ros – International Journal of Christianity & Education, 2019
Church-affiliated universities operate with increasingly complex roles and functions when engaging with multiple stakeholders in the provision of higher education. This article asks how to understand and analyse the interactions when these universities are among the multiple stakeholders in Christian teacher education. What frameworks of analysis…

Bligh, Brett; Flood, Michelle – Tertiary Education and Management, 2017
This paper contributes to discussion of theory application in higher education research. We examine 59 empirical research papers from specialist journals that use a particular theory: activity theory. We scrutinise stated reasons for choosing the theory, functions played by the theory, and how the theory is valorised. We find that the theory is…
