Mendoza, Jennifer K.; Fausey, Caitlin M. – Developmental Science, 2021
Infants enculturate to their soundscape over the first year of life, yet theories of how they do so rarely make contact with details about the sounds available in everyday life. Here, we report on properties of a ubiquitous early ecology in which foundational skills get built: music. We captured daylong recordings from 35 infants ages 6-12 months…

McCreary, Michael – Educational Theory, 2021
Jacques Rancière's "The Ignorant Schoolmaster" confronts its reader with an intellectual adventure.

In the first section, McCreary…

Researchers frequently use Rasch models to analyze survey responses because these models provide accurate parameter estimates for items and examinees when there are missing data.

Srinivasan, Mahesh; Rabagliati, Hugh – Child Development Perspectives, 2021
Word learning is typically studied as a problem in which children need to learn a single meaning for a new word. And by most theories, children's learning is itself guided by the assumption that a new word will have only one meaning. However, the majority of words in languages are polysemous, carrying multiple related and distinct meanings. Here,…

Asadi, Lobat; Ali, Salma – Advances in Research on Teaching, 2021
The theoretical informants of teacher entitlement identified in this study indicate that the phenomenon goes beyond individual mindset to encompass the mediation of sociocultural and political factors in its construction, thus rendering a simple theory of "excessiveness" in association with teacher entitlement improbable at this time.…

McDonald, Jason K.; Yanchar, Stephen C. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
In this paper we offer a call for the development and utilization of originary theory in instructional design. Originary theory, which is generated by scholars within the field of its intended application, can be contrasted with imported theory, which is formulated in one field and later moved or "imported" into another for new purposes.…

Interlocking mechanisms of exclusion function as gatekeepers to high-quality learning in schools, which perpetuate oppressive conceptions of ability, learning, and intelligence.

As anti-oppressive pedagogies gain increasing prominence in teacher education, there is a need to examine how preservice teachers understand and implement anti-oppressive frameworks. The role of the university supervisor is uniquely well-positioned to allow for insight into preservice teacher pedagogical practices; however, this role is grossly…
