GenAI offers promising applications for enhancing SEL competencies such as self-awareness, empathy, and social skills through tools like real-time emotional feedback and personalized learning experiences. However, the integration of GenAI into SEL also presents significant challenges, including risks of depersonalization, algorithmic bias, and privacy concerns. This paper introduces a conceptual framework designed to prepare both pre-service and in-service teachers to navigate these complexities, emphasizing ethical considerations, human oversight, and cultural sensitivity. The framework highlights strategies to operationalize cultural sensitivity within AI systems, recognizing the limitations of current technologies in accounting for diverse social and emotional norms. By addressing both opportunities and risks, we aim to provide a balanced analysis of GenAI’s potential in SEL as well as guidance for teacher education programs.","PeriodicalId":17162,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teacher Education","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143653935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The challenge of reconciling these disciplinary differences can promote faulty reasoning-for example, biology students often develop the incorrect idea that breaking bonds is exothermic and releases energy. We hypothesize that one source of this perceived mismatch is that biology and chemistry textbooks use different visual representations of bond breaking and formation. We analyzed figures of ATP hydrolysis from 12 college-level introductory biology textbooks and coded each figure for its representation of energy, bond formation, and bond breaking. For comparison, we analyzed figures from six college-level introductory chemistry textbooks. We found that the majority (70%) of biology textbook figures presented ATP hydrolysis in the form \"one reactant → multiple products\" and \"more bonds in reactants → fewer bonds in products\". In contrast, chemistry textbook figures of the form \"one reactant → multiple products\" and \"more bonds → fewer bonds\" were predominantly endothermic reactions, which directly contradicts the exothermic nature of ATP hydrolysis. We hypothesize that these visual inconsistencies may be a contributing factor to student struggles in constructing a coherent mental model of energy and bonding.</p>","PeriodicalId":8830,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143647066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finally, 436 members of the dyslexia community ranked the importance of research topics in a survey. The top five priorities related to <i>training teachers and professionals</i>, <i>educational supports and interventions</i>, <i>mental health and self-esteem</i>, <i>making services and spaces more inclusive</i> and <i>cognition</i>.

This illustrative case study examines which AI literacy components can be developed through critical co-discovery and how this approach fosters educators’ reflective, critical, and participatory engagement with AI. Findings revealed that through co-discovery activities, educators co-constructed an understanding of AI concepts, ethical considerations, and context-specific applications. The study highlights the need for prolonged engagement with AI literacy by integrating it into teacher education program to ensure educators can critically navigate and assert their agency in AI’s complex role in education.","PeriodicalId":17162,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teacher Education","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143653936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analyzed 28 primarily qualitative studies, conducted between 1998 and 2023, using Conservation of Resources (COR) theory as a framework to study their working conditions. We analyzed their responsibilities in inclusive schools (e.g., instruction, collaboration), and the resources that were provided or needed to fulfill those responsibilities (e.g., time, professional development).

In this study, we extend the racial threat theoretical framework by illustrating the associations between racial composition and changes in the racial composition of schools and school-level disciplinary outcomes, such as rates of and disparities in office discipline referrals (ODRs) and suspensions, and student-level disciplinary outcomes, such as the likelihood of receiving an ODR and suspensions in New York City Public Schools. Similar to most prior studies, the findings indicate a significant association between the proportion of Black students in a school and overall suspensions and ODRs at both the school and student levels. At the school level, racial change in all other student groups except Black students is not significantly related to disciplinary outcomes. Our findings illustrate that a change in the percentage of Black students at a school is associated with an increased likelihood of receiving an ODR and suspension. Racial threat may be more pronounced in predominantly White schools compared to majority Black schools. The findings suggest that school climate, educator ethno-racial diversity, and principal experience moderate the relationship for school racial composition, with suggestive but inconsistent evidence for racial change. The results provide empirical evidence of anti-blackness in school discipline and support investments in school climate and educator diversity to disrupt discipline disparities.","PeriodicalId":51398,"journal":{"name":"Sociology of Education","volume":"89 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143635667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
