The Landscape Of Us Elementary Mathematics Teacher Education: Course Requirements For Mathematics Content And Methods, Brette Garner, Jen Munson, Gladys Krause, Claudia Bertolone-Smith, Et Al.
School of Education Articles
The adequate preparation of future teachers of mathematics is critical, requiring sufficient opportunities to develop both pedagogical skill and content knowledge. Yet, despite new recommendations for mathematics teacher preparation, we know little about the landscape of course-based learning opportunities in US elementary teacher education programs. To what extent do US elementary teacher education programs meet the Standards for Preparing Teachers of Mathematics outlined by the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE) for mathematics content and methods courses? Based on an a priori power analysis, we gathered a random sample of 291 higher education institutions. Within these institutions, we analyzed 736 …

Center for Gifted Education Reports
Excerpt from publication: "The format for this book is very simple and we wanted to make it as user-friendly as possible. For too long in the field of gifted education there has been an assumption that high ability students are a homogeneous group. Hopefully this guide will help to dispel this myth once and for all and we can celebrate the different types of gifted students, the different strategies that can help them and we can embrace the heterogeneity of the group.
Each section of the book will cover advice for students, parents, teachers and policy makers. To emphasise the …
Maximizing Small-Group Reading Instruction, Kristin Conradi Smith, Steven J. Amendum, Tamara W. Williams
Maximizing Small-Group Reading Instruction, Kristin Conradi Smith, Steven J. Amendum, Tamara W. Williams
School of Education Articles
In this article, the authors revisit the common practice of small-group reading instruction. They challenge the idea of grouping readers based on text levels and instead review supplemental intervention group research that suggests targeted skill practice as a more optimal use of time in small groups. They then present the ABCs—a focus on assessment, basics & books, and clarity in communication—as the central principles that should guide how we instruct reading in small groups.
Troubling The Niceness Of Social Change In Leadership Education, Erica R. Wiborg
Troubling The Niceness Of Social Change In Leadership Education, Erica R. Wiborg
Arts & Sciences Articles
This article troubles a culture of niceness that upholds racism, whiteness, and other forms of oppression, as well as challenges the simplistic application of social change in leadership education. Leadership educators have several responsibilities for challenging ideologies, practices, and discourses that secure whiteness when teaching about leadership for social change. The current article begins with situating the relationship of whiteness and niceness, then offers liberatory considerations for troubling niceness in leadership education. Considerations for why leadership educators and students, based on their social identities and lived experiences, might resist addressing social inequality, power, inclusion, and equity in leadership are discussed. …

Emotion, Place, And Practice: Exploring The Interplay In Children's Engagement In Ecologists' Sampling Practices, Kathryn Lanouette
Emotion, Place, And Practice: Exploring The Interplay In Children's Engagement In Ecologists' Sampling Practices, Kathryn Lanouette
School of Education Articles
In science education, there has been a sustained focus on supporting the emergence of science practices in K–12 and field-based settings. Recent work has elevated the integral role of emotion in sparking and sustaining such disciplinary practices, deepening the field's understanding of what is entailed in “doing” science. Yet even as we gain this richer understanding of practice, less attention has been given to the places where practice emerges. These places play a critical role in the co-emergence of emotion and practice, and while separate strands of research have elevated emotion and practice or, alternately, place and practice, rarely has …
Exploring How Secondary Stem Teachers And Undergraduate Mentors Adapt Digital Technologies To Promote Culturally Relevant Education During Covid-19, Meredith W. Kier, Lindy L. Johnson
Exploring How Secondary Stem Teachers And Undergraduate Mentors Adapt Digital Technologies To Promote Culturally Relevant Education During Covid-19, Meredith W. Kier, Lindy L. Johnson
School of Education Articles
The COVID-19 global pandemic presented unprecedented challenges to K-16 educators, including the closing of educational agencies and the abrupt transition to online teaching and learning. Educators sought to adapt in-person learning activities to teach in remote and hybrid online settings. This study explores how a partnership between middle and high school teachers in an urban school district and undergraduate STEM mentors of color leveraged digital tools and collaborative pedagogies to teach science, technology, and engineering during a global pandemic. We used a qualitative multi-case study to describe three cases of teachers and undergraduate mentors. We then offer a cross-case analysis …
