Teachers' self-efficacy for inclusion is emphasized as necessary for enabling inclusive education. One instrument developed for measuring teacher self-efficacy for inclusion is the Teacher Efficacy for Inclusion Practice-scale (TEIP) (Sharma, U., Loreman, T., & Forlin, C. (2012). Measuring teacher efficacy to implement inclusive practices.…

Online learning has become an important advance in education in the last decade. We developed an online learning system related to land and tree measurements. University students were given pre- and postexposure surveys for two courses offered within the online system. Surveys were designed to assess whether the knowledge level and confidence of…

Literature indicates that teachers' technology integration is affected by internal (individual feeling) and external (support from schools) factors. How the two levels of factors affect continuous technology integration remains unclear. Drawing upon the organizational support theory, this study thus proposes a multilevel model to examine how…

This study aims to uncover the factors influencing entrepreneurial intention among business undergraduates in Malaysia. The theory of planned behavior suggests that personal attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and entrepreneurial education influence entrepreneurial intentions. Questionnaires were disseminated to 400…

This study investigated the critical roles of school climate and efficacy (collective teacher efficacy and teacher self-efficacy) in teachers' enthusiasm throughout their teaching careers. Based on multigroup structural equation modelling and mediation analysis of a sample of 4594 primary school teachers in China, this study found that school…

Students learning computer science frequently struggle with debugging errors in their code. These struggles can have significant downstream effects--negatively influencing how students assess their programming ability and contributing to their decision to drop out of CS courses. However, debugging instruction is often an overlooked topic, and…

Inquiry is central in science education and therefore also in pre-service teacher (PST) education. In this systematic review of 142 empirical articles, we examine research on inquiry-based science education (IBSE) in teacher education between 2000 and 2022. The aim is to investigate how and with what outcomes IBSE is used in PST education. The…

The concept of growth mindset--an individual's beliefs that basic characteristics such as intelligence are malleable--has gained immense popularity in research, the media, and educational practice. Even though it is assumed that teachers need a growth mindset and that both teachers and their students benefit when teachers adopt a growth mindset,…

Relational goals newly added to the teachers' goal orientation framework have been identified as one of the central features of effective teaching. However, little research has taken such goals into account, specifically in higher education contexts. Concerning the association between self-efficacy and goal orientations, this study was undertaken…

Preservice teachers will one day be responsible for addressing bullying among their students but their readiness to fulfill this critical role is unknown. This article addressed this line of inquiry by conducting a systematic review assessing preservice teachers' knowledge, attitudes, sense of responsibility, and confidence to deal with bullying.…

Research has demonstrated that on the path from a creative idea to a creative outcome, high creativity motivation and self-efficacy do not necessarily lead to creative behavior. The present study proposed and examined the notion that daily creativity planning could promote creative behavior and contribute to the cultivation of creativity. A total…

Service-learning has become a popular approach for supporting students in higher education settings, but less is known about its link with the learner's self-efficacy, which are known to play an important role in higher education. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of service-learning approach on students' self-efficacy…

To be successful in producing improvement, assessment must be "part of a larger set of conditions that promote change" (Astin et al. 1992). To identify the enduring principles likely to produce the specific conditions to promote change, the author turned to two sources: (1) W. Edwards Deming's classic 1982 book, "Out of the Crisis:…

Prior research fails to support the future implementation of culturally responsive teaching. We argue that imparting culturally responsive teaching practices in the curriculum is insufficient and that preservice teacher education should instead look to support the implementation of these practices in subsequent teaching. The purpose of this…

With the rapid increase in online education enrollments, the need for experienced and skilled online instructors has also increased. Research confirms that novice online instructors encounter barriers to high-quality teaching, including a lack of pedagogical knowledge, skills, and low self-efficacy. Providing training and mentoring within the…
