This article chronicles a provincial collaboration between ten Bachelor of Education degree-granting universities in Alberta, Canada. This collaboration focused on the newly implemented Teaching Quality Standard (2018) in Alberta and its impact on preservice teacher practicums. Data were collected through curriculum mapping and interviews at each…

Developing an evidence-base for educational provision can be an arduous journey. To facilitate consistent and accurate implementation of promising approaches, research efforts need to answer questions relating to theoretical coherence, efficacy, effectiveness, cost, ease of use, and acceptability. An evidence-building framework can help us to…

Comprehensibility, or ease of understanding, has emerged as an important construct in second language (L2) speech research. Many studies have examined the linguistic features that underlie this construct, but there has been limited work on behavioral and affective predictors. The goal of this study was therefore to examine the extent to which…

Mathematics education researchers (MERs) engage in interdisciplinary collaborations that contribute to the mathematics education discipline. MERs' learned forms of work and discourse, i.e., practices, are particular to their mathematics education discipline and might not align with practices needed to conduct interdisciplinary work. We interviewed…

Purpose: Lesson study (LS) is a collaborative form of action research. Collaboration is central to LS methodology, therefore exploring and expanding the understanding of the collaborative features that occur in LS is a priority. This paper explores the features of collaboration in existing publications on LS to consider if, as Quaresma (2020)…

University-business collaboration in doctoral education has been promoted by governments and universities. In contexts where there is limited contact between the academic and business sectors, individuals and their social capital might play an important role in the formation and success of such partnerships, including the frequency of interaction…

The context in which learning takes place, or learning environment, is pivotal to a positive learning experience for students. Although numerous studies have established strong links between a positive learning environment and a range of student outcomes, far less research has examined how teachers might establish such an environment. Amidst…

It is well established that intelligence testing in its modern form developed and was deployed slightly differently in several countries, most notably France, England and the United States. Less widely recognized is the fact that its originators were all part of a close network of scholars who liaised internationally, exchanged ideas and were…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to highlight the ways in which reactive researcher collaboration helps to manage some of the challenges present in insider research. Design/methodology/approach: Employing (auto)biographical reflections from across two different case-studies, the authors explore the ways in which reactive collaboration is…

In March 2020 a national Professional Development Schools (PDS)-School-University Partnerships (SUP) project was funded by a peer-reviewed grant from the American Education Research Association (AERA) to support education research conferences. In its original form, the project called for a three-day conference in September of 2021 to be held at…

In Canada, there is no federal department of education, nor is there a national system of education. Education is the responsibility of provinces and territories, and provincial education ministries lead the organization, implementation, and assessment of education within their jurisdictions. What this means for professional learning is that each…

This qualitative study examined teachers' perceptions of collaboration in a northeastern US state within the context of high-stakes teacher evaluation. Teachers were asked about collaboration via an open-ended prompt (n = 1336). Data were evaluated through the professional capital framework. Themes included: pockets of collaboration, inclusion…

Statisticians and data scientists have been called upon to increase the impact they have through their collaborative projects. Statistics and data science practitioners and their educators can achieve and enable greater impact by learning how to create shared understanding with their collaborators as well as teaching this concept to their…

This study aimed to unearth the status of the educational research dimension of the digital citizenship literature through the studies scanned in the education research category in the WoS database and whose author keywords include digital citizenship. For this purpose, 96 studies were examined. The data set was extracted from WoS database. A…

Professional musician-educators from a tertiary arts institution in Singapore collaborated on a cross-cultural performance in Beijing as part of their professional development. Through a case study, semi-structured interviews explored the music making experiences of four of the musician-educators involved: the composer, the singer, the pianist and…
