Extensive evidence indicates that self-regulated learning is associated with crucial academic outcomes and the significant ways digital technologies enhance pedagogical approaches in diverse learning environments in postsecondary education. Despite this evidence, self-regulated learning and digital technologies have not been fully integrated to…

This study aimed to understand graduate-level Elementary Preservice Teachers' (EPST) mathematical dispositions before, during, and after a graduate elementary math methods course taught through a rehumanizing, ambitious and equitable math teaching framework. In this study, EPSTs' dispositions included four constructs: math anxiety, math teaching…

Many preservice teachers enrolled in teacher training programs need support in order to become successful teachers of record. Two factors have been shown to have positive results in building a robust teacher: self-efficacy and resilience. Self-efficacy stems from mastery experiences, trusted guidance of mentors, and a strong pedagogical…

The effectiveness of teacher-preparation programs to produce high-quality teachers has been an issue of concern for a long time. Teachers play a significant role in shaping students' academic achievement and social-emotional growth. Therefore, it is critical to focus on how teacher education programs, especially the field placement component,…

This study investigated interactions of pre-service teachers' experiences and self-efficacy for teaching students with disabilities using culturally responsive practices. Extending a previous study, this study investigated what happens with intentional instructional changes. Pre-service teachers participated in courses about inclusion of students…

Purpose: To review past research on teaching methods courses with preservice physical education teachers and preservice elementary classroom teachers. Method: This study was guided by the "2017 National Standards for Initial Physical Education Teacher Education." A thorough literature search was conducted using online databases, and a…

Data-driven decision making (DDDM) involves using information gathered from and about students to make ongoing decisions about their instruction. Many teachers struggle with implementation of DDDM practices to optimize instruction, underscoring the importance of teacher education vis-à-vis DDDM. The present study secondarily analyzed existing data…

Revising teacher education frameworks and incorporating contemporary identified teacher attributes into the frameworks helps to ensure formidable initial teacher training. This paper validated teacher engagement efficacy for further consideration. Research findings that link preservice teachers' teaching self-efficacy to their instructional…

Online learning has radically altered educational access; however, challenges emerge for learning domains relying on practical learning experiences, such as the creative arts. Research shows praxis is vital to effective arts teacher preparation. However, as Australian initial teacher educators, we noted the challenges of engaging online students…

Debates about teaching reading have long been a part of educational vernacular, frequently reduced to polarised views about phonics. This attention can unnecessarily divert from the cumulative skills required for learning to read and comprehensive research, which indicates the positive influence of systematic phonics instruction on students'…

This paper reports on a small-scale research project that aimed to examine the impact of assessment changes to a second-year course called Tuhura Nga Toi Ahuatanga: Exploring the Role of the Expressive Arts in Education. This 30-credit course is part of a Bachelor of Education (Early childhood teaching) at a pre-service education provider in…

The need for credentialed teachers with online teaching experience is paramount. Prior research exists on teacher readiness of in-service teachers, but little research has been conducted on pre-service teacher readiness for teaching in online environments. The purpose of this sequential explanatory mixed-methods case study was to explore the…

The study of 'technological readiness and online learning self-efficacy' has been thoroughly examined across multiple fields in recent years. Most investigations on this topic have consistently shown a contradictory relationship between the two factors. Moreover, there is a dearth of studies undertaken in the field of Physical Education within…

Pre-service teacher preparation programs are often ineffective in preparing new teachers to use classroom management skills and strategies. This contributes to high teacher-turnover rates for new teachers and ultimately influences principal retention and student outcomes. The crisis of teacher retention in the aftermath of the pandemic threatens…

Teacher self-efficacy (TSE) is one important construct in teacher education research and malleable at early career stages before becoming resistant to change once established. Longitudinal research plays an essential role in capturing TSE changes and although it has been claimed to be lacking, no systematic methodological review of these studies…
