ABSTRACTRapidly changing and emotional times, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, can have drastic impacts on teachers’ well-being. Using data from an episode of the ‘Talking Teaching’ podcast, this study explores how three Australian early-career teachers (ECTs) critically reflected on their practice in light of the emotional roller coaster caused by COVID-19. Drawing on Brookfield’s theoretical lenses for critical reflection, important findings indicate that the podcasting process facilitated the ECTs’ critical reflection on the shifts in their practice and changes in power relations with parents during remote learning. The latter finding points to the possibility of extending Brookfield’s critical reflection lenses to include a ‘parental perspectives’ lens. It is argued that podcasting is a powerful critical reflection tool that supports ECTs’ identity development and self-directed learning. Moreover, this study demonstrates the unique potential for podcasting in the generation of rich and authentic educational data.KEYWORDS: Early-career teacherspodcastingcritical reflectionremote learningteacher identity AcknowledgmentsThe authors wish to acknowledge Professor Ange Fitzgerald for her constructive and insightful comments on an earlier version of this article.

Owing to the worldwide pandemic, use of technology and online education has increased. Studies into teachers' experiences in Higher Education indicated that teachers find it hard to monitor their students' progress during online education. Adequate teacher monitoring is essential, since it allows teachers to adapt their teaching strategies to student needs. Therefore, it was investigated what monitoring strategies teachers employed in online education and what challenges they experienced. Interviews were held with 10 teachers. The results showed that teachers primarily monitored students during online guided sessions. A difficulty was the lack of non-verbal and other observational cues that are normally available. To deal with this challenge, teachers created explicit monitoring opportunities by adjusting their course design. In the discussion, recommendations are given to stimulate teacher monitoring, and the potential role of automated analyses (learning analytics) to aid teacher monitoring is discussed.

ABSTRACTThis study investigates the role of a collaboration script, the Funnel Model, in supporting students’ computer-supported collaborative scientific argumentation, and how the students appropriated the collaboration script in scientific argumentation. In this exploratory case study, a class of 33 Secondary grade four students went through four phases of computer-supported collaborative argumentation activity scripted by the Funnel Model: individual ideation, intra-group synergy, inter-group critique and intra-group refinement. Multiple sources of data were collected including student-generated artefacts online at different phases of collaboration, and the post-intervention interviews with the students. The results show that the Funnel Model facilitated students’ computer-supported collaborative argumentation. The students’ levels of content mastery, motivation, classroom culture and time allocated for classroom participation affect students’ appropriation of the script for effective collaborative argumentation.KEYWORDS: Computer-supported collaborative learningcollaboration argumentationcollaboration scriptsappropriation AcknowledgmentsThis study was funded by Singapore Ministry of Education (MOE) under the Education Research Funding Programme (OER 07/17 CWL and OER 17/19 CWL) and administered by National Institute of Education (NIE), Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.

This study explores the impact of screencast feedback on maths tests for junior and high school students. While prior research emphasises the influence of feedback on learning, its effectiveness varies with type and delivery. Although studies in higher education observe improved precision and emotional connections through screencast feedback, its applicability in secondary education remains understudied. The authors surveyed 99 students, collecting responses via an 11-item questionnaire after the students had received feedback. Through thematic analysis, they found 72% favoured video feedback due to its clarity, depth and personal touch. Conversely, 17% preferred written feedback for efficiency. These findings underscore the benefits of screencasting feedback, highlighting its comprehensibility and individualised nature. Given the rise of digital learning, educators are encouraged to adopt screencasting as a valuable tool for enhancing feedback in academic settings.

Video lectures in massive open online courses (MOOCs) provide an opportunity to not only deliver instructional content but also engage learners. While there are many different styles of video lectures, it is not clear how video styles affect learner engagement. This study analysed and critiqued different typologies of video styles and classified MOOC video styles on a speaker-centric to media-centric spectrum. A total of 1372 survey responses were used for data analysis. The findings indicated that the ‘media-centric’ and ‘balanced’ video styles enhanced learner engagement to varying degrees in MOOCs of different study areas. In contrast, the ‘speaker-centric’ video style offered no advantages for promoting engagement in any MOOC study area. Effect sizes ranged from .03 to .07, indicating that video styles had a small to medium effect on engagement. These findings can provide new insights into the design of video lectures for different study areas in MOOCs.

ABSTRACT This study explores pre-service teachers’ perspectives about the use of WhatsApp as an educational tool. This is a qualitative project set within an interpretive paradigm. Sixteen pre-service teachers at a University of Technology voluntarily agreed to be part of this study. These pre-service teachers were divided into two groups of eight participants each to take part in a focus group discussion. The data collected were analysed deductively, linking it to literature and the Community of Inquiry theoretical framework. The results show that despite challenges, pre-service teachers used WhatsApp because of its benefits, which include cost-effectiveness, quick dissemination of information, supporting learning and relieving stress among preservice teachers. The researchers concluded that lecturers and pre-service teachers should adopt and adapt WhatsApp for teaching and learning as a tool that supplements the learning management system in order to meet the contextual and diverse learning needs of students.

ABSTRACT The present study compared teachers’ acceptance of online and augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR) technology in instruction, employing an extended technology acceptance model (eTAM). The authors included four influencing factors for teachers’ technology integration (teachers’ technological pedagogical and content knowledge [TPACK], self-efficacy, constructivist beliefs and motivational support) and investigated their impact on teachers’ acceptance of online- and AR/VR-based instruction. The results confirmed that self-efficacy and motivational support impacted perceived ease of use for both technologies. The most salient difference when comparing influencing factors was that constructivist beliefs influenced perceived usefulness in online-based instruction, whereas TPACK did in AR/VR-based instruction.

The most salient difference when comparing influencing factors was that constructivist beliefs influenced perceived usefulness in online-based instruction, whereas TPACK did in AR/VR-based instruction.","PeriodicalId":46992,"journal":{"name":"Technology Pedagogy and Education","volume":"32 1","pages":"537 - 554"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45755008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
