This research explored the experiences of children (age 9-10) when five Irish generalist primary teachers positioned meaningfulness as the priority filter for their pedagogical decision-making in physical education (n = 37). Pedagogies that support meaningfulness include those that are democratic and reflective, and give attention to individual…

Holography is an emerging technology with interesting educational potential. Although the cost of devices able to display holograms is significant, there are alternative methods for producing pseudo-holograms with far less cost, such as 3D LED fan displays. Because the research regarding the impact these devices have on learning is limited, we…

In the last 5 years, there have been several literature reviews or meta-analyses investigating various aspects of STEM education; however, they have investigated a specific aspect of STEM, e.g. robotics, or digital games, or Early childhood, or Teacher perspectives. In addition, a broad-reaching review on STEM integration has not been conducted in…

The subject of this study is to investigate if, and to what extent the performance of third-grade students' multiplication fact proficiency differs in a hybrid learning setting as compared to in-person instruction. These differences were questioned by researching if there was a change in student proficiency due to the instructional modality, if…

A design experiment where students in Grade 5 (11-12 years old) play the Color Run game constitutes the context for investigating how students can be introduced to informal hypothesis testing. The result outlines a three-step hypothetical learning trajectory on informal hypothesis testing. In the first step, students came to favor sample space…

Teaching requires careful attention to the needs of all learners. How do we ensure we consistently meet them holistically? Though we live in what is considered a post-racial society, several injustices are suffered by minority groups. To combat this, many have adopted anti-racist pedagogy. Research suggests, however, that anti-racist teaching…
