ABSTRACT Students’ recognition of the common procedural mistakes in the chemistry laboratory was examined in this study. Data were collected from 49 undergraduates studying Science Teaching. A video in which a student is purposefully making common procedural mistakes was shown to the students, and they were asked to recognize the mistakes. A Written Response Form (WRF), Chemistry Laboratory Anxiety Scale (CLAS), Laboratory Equipments Knowledge Form (LEKF), and Calculation Form (CF) were the data collecting tools. Students’ scores from WRF indicated that they could not recognize many mistakes. Correlation analysis was made between students’ scores from recognizing mistakes (WRF) and their CLAS, LEKF, and CF scores. The study’s findings imply that only the feelings towards laboratory work (anxiety in this case) correlated with WRF. When high anxiety students and low anxiety students were examined, it was found that high anxiety students did not recognize some mistakes at all.

ABSTRACT This research explored the nature of writing assignments within disciplinary graduate courses taken by international students while they are in a graduate pathway program. This research also examined how writing tasks in these courses vary across disciplines and looked at how the pathway EAP curriculum supports graduate students’ writing needs. The analysis of 102 syllabi from 89 courses in 12 graduate pathway programs yielded a total of 14 categories of writing assignments. Findings demonstrated that exercises, reports, and course projects/research papers are commonly assigned tasks within physical science pathways such as engineering, whereas critiques and reflections were common in human science pathways such as education. More variations in writing assignments were found in the human science disciplinary group. The analysis of six pathway EAP curricula suggests that graduate pathway students gain vital academic skills that are imperative in academic settings regardless of discipline. However, specialized written tasks that are discipline-specific, in particular to physical sciences, were absent from the EAP curriculum. This study offers implications for the design and revision of pathway EAP.

ABSTRACT This article presents the work of two female students in a rural school who were assigned to respond to a Shakespearean text with a Digital Video (DV) project. The study shows how the teacher provided students appropriate time, mediation, and space in allowing them to bring their out-of-school literacies and interests within an academic context. The students composed a DV interpretation of the “tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow” speech from Macbeth. The research examines both the product and process of the students’ work. They recursively planned, drafted, and edited as they composed a multimodal response that purposefully attended to the orchestration of visuals, audio, and text. Implications from this study demonstrate the importance of valuing students’ identities in classroom settings, emphasizing multiple audiences for student work, highlighting the complexity of compositional decisions students made throughout the entire process of creating their video response, and providing multimodal assessments in academic contexts.

ABSTRACT Audio-assisted Repeated Reading (RR) is a method which scaffolds L2 readers to build fluency. This study focused on 27 U.S. college-level learners of Japanese comprising three ability groups from mid-beginner to low-intermediate. It aimed to explore whether a modest semester-long RR program facilitates learners’ fluency growth, and see how the learners perceive the method itself using a questionnaire. We found beneficial effects of audio-supported RR in terms of reading rate growth while learners maintained good comprehension. The study showed a significant practice effect, in which learners increased their reading rates while re-reading the same passage. Further, learners in one of the three groups read significantly faster with a new, unpracticed passages representing transfer of the practice effect. Additionally, questionnaire responses demonstrated that learners perceived beneficial effects from RR. Finally, we make a proposal on measuring learners’ reading comprehension in fluency intervention programs such as RR. We proposed that measurement of learners’ reading comprehension have two different purposes, pedagogical purposes and research purposes. Thus the reading comprehension measures would have different designs and cut scores.

ABSTRACT This work looks at how the infrastructure or conventions of practice and social arrangements govern local classroom literacy practices and how marginalized students resist the infrastructure and expose institutional change-making possibilities. Drawing from a longitudinal study, we analyzed five days of lessons that constituted a project in order to attend to aspects of instruction and activity that were indicative of the infrastructure and whether, and if so, how, students used language, body, silence, etc., to disrupt these guiding practices. The questions that guide this work are the following: What does student resistance reveal about the institutional infrastructure in this classroom? How did youth exploit the infrastructure’s fissures and what does it reveal about racial wisdom? Our findings demonstrate how students navigated, negotiated, and addressed the institutional complexities that shaped this assignment and offered limited ways to navigate it. This work offers a broader understanding of what students’ enactment of resistance disrupts and provides a clearer understanding of student racial wisdom.

ABSTRACT Inquiry-based learning is becoming a widely recognized and used pedagogical approach. However, existing research has largely focused on inquiry learning in science education, neglecting fields such as social studies (SS). In Singapore, inquiry learning in SS received an impetus when a component called “Issue Investigation” (II) was introduced into the compulsory secondary school syllabus of 2016. Given the recency of this introduction, there has been a lacuna of empirical research. Addressing both these research gaps, this paper presents qualitative findings from a preliminary study of Singapore secondary school SS teachers’ perspectives and experiences relating to II. Building on a recognition of teacher agency and of the role teachers play in mediating curriculum and teaching/learning, this paper focuses on how teachers interpret the nature of inquiry learning in SS in the Singapore context. Findings suggest that teachers held broadly two conceptions of II: some saw it as aimed towards working out practical solutions to societal issues in the spirit of participative citizenship; others treated it akin to a social science inquiry process that fostered critical and analytical thinking. In addition, the challenges teachers encountered in implementing and enacting II, and their coping strategies are also briefly discussed.

ABSTRACT This article provides a comparative case study of two connected learning experiences in teacher education that vary in scope, participants, time, and design to consider the questions: 1) What characterizes humanizing engagement across varied experiences of connected learning in teacher education? and 2) What repertoires of practice become shared through discourses of collegiality in educators’ connected learning experiences? Back-tracing from educators’ written reflections to their digitally networked activity in Twitter chats, processual case analysis involved rounds of inductive coding and exploratory data visualization. We identified repertoires of practice across three continua of preservice and inservice educators’ practices–sharing, care, and experimentation–which together characterize a range of more and less humanizing discourses of collegiality. Participants in both cases reflected on experiences across the spectrum of each continua, highlighting the limits of these connected learning designs in fostering humanizing learning experience in teacher education. We provide implications for teacher educators regarding fostering more critical and reflexive humanizing connected learning in teacher education as well as for the design of such experiences.

ABSTRACT We recommend the conceptualization of computing as a critical literacy, and ground this conceptualization in considerations of historical and current realities in computing. The frameworks of connected learning and computational participation are recommended as guides for doing critical computing literacy. We present the findings from an interpretive case study of the SciGirls Code (SGC) program. This program was piloted with 16 after–school programs for middle school girls that engaged them in computer science (NSF #1543209). This research investigated girls’ learning, attitudes, and participation involving 84 participants across 11 sites aged 10-14 and in 5th-8th grades. Through sharing a vignette from one site and highlighting findings from this study, we illustrate ways to do critical computing literacy and examine the potential of using connected learning and computational participation in designing more equitable computer science education offerings.

ABSTRACT Resurgent social, political, cultural, and economic tensions, in part facilitated by emerging information and communication technologies, underscore the need to cultivate new forms of critical literacy in our digital age. These critical digital literacy (CDL) practices share a specific focus on navigating, interrogating, critiquing, and shaping textual meaning across digital and face-to-face contexts. In this introductory article, the guest editors overview several examples of pedagogical scholarship concerned with these practices, collectively referred to as CDL. Specifically, the guest editors frame this collection of articles in this issue around the following question: In an educational context increasingly marked by volatility and uncertainty, but also connection and creative potential, in what ways might a focus on CDL inform pedagogical theory and practice? Drawing from a variety of disciplinary perspectives and contexts, this article discusses how educators and researchers are currently addressing the nature and role of CDL in contemporary educational settings within and beyond institutions: in K-12 and higher-education classroom pedagogy, pre- and in-service teacher education, affinity spaces, the role of design and imagination, critical computation, and digital civic participation.
