By applying a conversation analytic approach to analyze the fine-grained manifestation of authority in classroom interaction, we examine the interaction between a teacher and a student while the student presented a solution at the whiteboard. This case highlights the complexity of shared authority and the ways that authority is construed by…

This study examines Adizes's management model implemented in student enterprise teams among undergraduate students at the University of Agder, Norway, exploring factors that affect the collaborative process. As Adizes's model claims four team roles (integrator, administrator, producer, entrepreneur) are required for effective and targeted…

Understanding social interactions among students comprises a rich area of physics education research. Here we focus on the social interactions in introductory physics laboratories (labs). Most existing research in such contexts focuses on within-group social dynamics, however, we argue that interactions between different lab groups are just as…

This study was conducted to investigate the role of the parents of students in the science and technology lessons of the project-based teaching approach. The research was carried out through a case study, one of the qualitative research methods. The data of the study were obtained from semi-structured interviews with 24 students' parents. As a…

The current study examines both student self-regulated learning (SRL) and teacher orchestration in a virtual learning environment (VLE), with respect to student achievement. The study used SRL indicators derived from the log data on how students used the VLE system, survey data on how teachers made use of the VLE for Algebra instruction, as well…

The purpose of this small-scale qualitative research study was to examine the use and perceived value of integrating collaborative learning techniques at teleconferences at the Hellenic Open University (HOU).

The study aims at analyzing the effectiveness and practicality of BIL program to improve the generic skills in learning biology. This study was a pre-experimental study with one group pre-test and post-test design on 138 students divided into four groups at several universities in Mataram. The practicality of the program is measured using an…

Teacher feedback during the process of students' proving is important to consider because proving is often challenging for students, requiring feedback and support. Additionally, feedback has implications for authority and agency, which are constantly being negotiated. We examined the authority dynamics evidenced in a teacher's feedback actions…

Despite the upward trajectory of formal American Sign Language (ASL) instruction, evidence-based practices remain in a rudimentary stage of development. Previously, no known studies had distinctly investigated supplemental ASL laboratories (ASL labs), despite over half of ASL instructors utilizing them alongside their classes. This qualitative…
