Faculty development is a critical area of practice for every higher education institution. Many programs, however, are increasingly designed around assuring institutional compliance rather than equipping faculty to be successful teachers. The current study was designed to explore what a community college’s faculty perceived as important faculty development programming. Using a survey of nearly 400 faculty at a suburban community college, faculty identified programs that focus on linking social technology to academic success, generational differences of students, and addressing student disabilities in the classroom as the most important. Nearly half of responding faculty noted that developmental programing is of high importance to them, and just over a third indicated that programing should be in person rather than online. Findings suggest that faculty are seeking the best possible way to connect with students who have grown up with technology.

This quantitative study was designed to understand the relationship between the variables of student attendance, educator experience and turnover, and student achievement at the Molly Hootch schools in rural Alaska, to better understand the current state of achievement according to data from 2002–2019, collected from the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development (AKDEED) database. Data revealed that Molly Hootch school attendance was at 90% and that proficiency among students dropped from 40% to 15% during the years under review. The drop in proficiency during a time period where attendance level was strong leads to further qualitative exploration of the causes of the phenomenon.

This paper investigates the influence of the school shift change on the academic performance of 6th and 7th graders (lower secondary education) of public schools in the city of Recife, Brazil. The empirical analyses use educational data from a panel of the Brazilian Ministry of Education, with a sample of 4,500 students, 3,468 parents or guardians, 85 principals, and 137 teachers working in 87 public schools that were spatially distributed. The identification strategy explores a quasi-experiment in which some classes of the investigated sample had their school shifts changed between the two years, which occurred exclusively due to the school logistics and regardless of the parents’ preferences. Difference-in-differences models combined with propensity score matching demonstrate that students who shifted from morning to afternoon between the two years analyzed improved their Portuguese test scores, and that those who experienced the opposite change, from afternoon to morning, had a drop in the performance. Estimations in intermediary outcomes also reveal that the changes in the students’ sleeping habits are an important mechanism that explains the relation between the scores and the school shift.

The aim of this study is to determine the importance of learning English to find jobs in sectors such as banks, education, and private companies. It also shows the importance of finding a platform with a designed curriculum for those who are interested in working in this field to facilitate their integration to improve employment opportunities with limited duration or based on the challenges that might come out. A questionnaire was conducted on 408 workers with higher levels of education, English speakers, and non-speakers in Gaziantep, in Turkey. The researcher found that English Language learning has a very important role in finding better job opportunities in Turkey. However, the main challenges facing the learners, according to the results, are learner’s lack of confidence, teaching method, being with people who speak your mother tongue, limited learning environments, over-use of native language in the classroom, and inadequate learning materials. Difficulties such as time and cost are the least challenges facing them to learn English in the participants’ opinion. Lastly, as solutions to overcome the learning challenge, the education process should focus more on motivation, speaking, learning vocabulary, using communicative language teaching, and improving teaching methods, social networks, reading, and school. However, living abroad, free and private courses, grammar, university, platforms, and family environment are the least effective supports to overcome those challenges.

There is no question that elementary teachers are feeling added burdens regarding early reading instruction since returning to the post-pandemic classroom. Much discussion is occurring about lags across all areas of language and literacy development. At present, teachers have few empirical resources upon which to draw. This article considers the 2022 nine-year-old reading results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress as well as voices from virtual primary teachers in relationship to instructional recommendations made prior to 2020. Now more than ever, it is imperative that early literacy include not only foundational skills development, but also direct instruction in comprehension, vocabulary, and the development of background knowledge. This article proposes a way to integrate early language arts instruction across the curriculum by harnessing the power of texts written for young readers. Differentiating reader needs is always a consideration. What lies within the text is considered far less often. Walter Kintsch’s (1998) construction-integration and situation models include the surface level, the reader base, and the textbase, providing a paradigm for considering how these three components can work together instructionally to help developing readers gain literacy proficiency. Young children need to practice foundational and comprehension skills in text at their decoding levels. This inquiry pairs expert genre analysis of possible informational text written at a low decoding level with three types of instruction research indicates must happen in the primary grades, illustrating instructional methodologies for a) abstract and concrete high frequency sight words, b) deep comprehension, and c) text structure.

The academic year of 2020-2021 was characterized by multiple crises, which affected the pedagogical-artistic management of the Department of Dance at the Kibbutzim College of Education, Technology and the Arts – one of the leading colleges in Israel for training teachers of dance. These crises occurred on three levels: the global, the national, and the local. On a global level, the Covid-19 outbreak brought about limitations imposed upon the public, from which emerged extreme social tensions, coupled with a political chasm that led to four election cycles, and finally a controversial military operation on the national level. On a local level, additional challenges included the department's shift to a new location in the city center, integration into a new "Faculty" organizational framework, a six-week lecturers' strike, and the replacement of two of the five administrative-staff members. These extreme conditions increased the number of secondary roles as an integral part of the Head of the Department's function described as fortune-teller, ombudswoman, clerk, real-estate agent, stunt artist, and midwife. The article focuses on presenting each of these roles and the transition from VUCA 1 (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity/Chaos, Ambiguity) to VUCA 2 (Vision, Understanding, Courage, Adaptability).

Our objective, in two investigations, was: (1) to provide a listing of safe browser extensions for Google Chrome that are likely to be useful for college students with disabilities, and (2) to provide the results of an empirical study of students with and without disabilities about which browser extensions they use, what they use these for, and why they do not use more browses extensions. Our findings indicate that there are many potentially useful browser extensions that could support students with and without disabilities to do academic work. But it appears that these are not used with any great enthusiasm for school work. Indeed, our findings show that the most popular uses of extensions are for shopping, adblocking, and entertainment. We provide a listing of safe extensions that can assist students with disabilities, speculate about why these are not used more extensively, and make recommendations for accessibility service providers and for the browser industry.
