Educational robotics, as emerging technologies, have been widely applied in the field of STEM education to enhance the instructional and learning quality. Although previous research has highlighted potentials of applying educational robotics in STEM education, there is a lack of empirical evidence to investigate and understand the overall effects…

The difficulty recruiting competent teachers is widespread, and the status of the teaching profession is on the decline. Sweden is just one country with these problems. Using longitudinal register data for every teacher in Sweden born between 1972 and 1998, the present study investigates changes in teachers' own school grades to clarify patterns…

The future of teaching will increasingly rely on overseas-trained teachers (OTTs) to address teacher shortages. While research on OTTs in the United States is expanding, studies focusing on Afro-Caribbean teachers are emerging. Despite the growing call for more teachers of color, Afro-Caribbean OTTs' contributions are often overlooked due to their…

This study seeks to explore and understand the Bhutanese secondary school teacher's perception of increased Continuous Formative Assessment (CFA) weightings and the associated opportunities and challenges. Grounded on pragmatism, this study employed an explanatory sequential mixed methods design. The quantitative and qualitative data were…

This paper contributes to understanding the work of teaching the university geometry courses that are taken by prospective secondary teachers. We ask what are the tensions that instructors need to manage as they plan and teach these courses. And we use these tensions to argue that mathematics instruction in geometry courses for secondary teachers…

This article reports on the development of a research attitude in secondary education teachers who are conducting teacher research. We aimed to investigate the professional development of teachers who are conducting teacher research, focusing on the development of their research attitude. We operationalised the concept "research…

This qualitative Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) explored the experiences of teachers who a) participated in a multiyear, multisite professional development (PD) program on formative assessment practices and who b) are identified by their supervising administrators as positive-outliers by virtue of their extraordinary improvement…

This study aims to examine the mediating effect of teacher self-efficacy on the relationship between collective efficacy and organizational citizenship behaviour among teachers from public secondary schools. A total of 232 valid samples were collected. Partial least square approach was adopted to conduct a comprehensive structural equation…

This study examines changes in secondary mathematics teachers' noticing of argumentation through experiencing a peer-assessment cycle. Sixty-one teachers participated in such a cycle comprised of (a) analyzing a written argumentation classroom situation (ACS) using a report format, (b) collaboratively assessing peers' ACS-reports using an ACS…

In 2019, Poland experienced a massive teachers' strike that lasted three weeks. Although the strike had a great impact on many teachers, in the end, this three-week action failed to obtain any of its demands. Using the concepts of workers' associational power and union legitimacy, I argue that one of the reasons for the loss was a crisis of…

This empirical study examined how subjective norms (SNs) and perceived severity affected teachers' intention to intervene and their intervention behaviors in real-life bullying incidents in primary and secondary schools. A total of 362 teachers who witnessed or were told about bullying incidents participated in this study by completing related…

Purpose: Scholars have been sounding the alarm of novice teacher turnover crises for decades. South Africa is soon to be facing an educational catastrophe because of a shortage of experienced teachers. Globally and in South Africa, novice teacher attrition is high, and teachers entering the classroom often described feeling isolated and…

This study proposes a model of several dimensions through which products of teachers' context-based mathematics problem posing (PP) can be modified. The dimensions are Correctness, Authenticity, Task Assortment (consisting of Mathematical Diversity, Multiple Data Representations, Question-Answer Format, Precision-Approximation, and…

Teaching and learning activities during the COVID-19 pandemic were largely ineffective, and exacerbated existing learning disparities (Dorn et al., 2020; Muscoviz & Evans, 2022). Instructional technologies were a significant component of these teaching and learning activities. Because K-12 teachers' internal beliefs are a significant predictor…
