This study aimed to identify the barriers to and facilitators of educational equity in digital environments. A purposive sampling was utilized to select participants who could provide rich, in-depth insights into the impact of online education within Smith County. In-depth interviews were conducted and focus groups held with students, teachers, and administrators within Smith County. Data analysis was conducted through an iterative process of coding and thematic analysis. The study was informed by the theoretical framework of digital divide and culturally responsive pedagogy. This study delved into the nuanced challenges faced by this community, including technological access, digital literacy, and socio-economic factors. The analysis also explored the pedagogical approaches and support systems that contribute to effective online learning experiences within this rural area. The findings revealed a complex interplay of factors affecting online education engagement and success, highlighting the critical role of tailored support services, culturally responsive teaching, and community partnerships to enhance educational outcomes. The study underscores the importance of understanding local contexts and learner needs in designing and implementing online education programs that specifically address equity. Major conclusions point toward the need for comprehensive strategies that go beyond providing internet access, emphasizing the creation of inclusive, supportive online learning communities. This research contributes to the discourse on educational equity in the digital age, offering insights for educators, policymakers, and online education providers seeking to improve access and outcomes for all learners.","PeriodicalId":136179,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Education","volume":" 44","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140998384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is little research pertaining to the methods that native teachers of Chinese can use to critically and creatively transform their instructional materials, strategies, and beliefs towards localizing the Chinese language curriculum to better suit students coming from diverse educational and cultural backgrounds. In an attempt to address this issue, a case study methodology, combined with photo-elicitation interviews, was adopted for data collection. It investigated a bilingual Chinese teacher-researcher who critically and flexibly utilized his cultural and linguistic repertoires in enacting translanguaging pedagogy practices in the Australian education context. This study reveals that the native Chinese teacher-researcher, was able to use his critical thinking and creative abilities backed by his indigenous Chinese linguistic and cultural concepts and metaphors to source and select appropriate localized content that facilitates student learning. Such translanguaging practices demonstrated that the native Chinese teacher-researcher’s critical thinking capability helped shape up intercultural pedagogy giving rise to a localized Chinese language curriculum in the Australian education context.","PeriodicalId":136179,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Education","volume":"126 27","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140078806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it has obstacles for students who are still learning to adapt to internet technology. This research aims to determine the effect of using online learning strategies on students' active learning and creative thinking. The subjects of this study were 52 students of the Indonesian Language Education Study Program at the Indonesian Catholic University of Saint Paul. They are taught using the Moodle application. The experimental class was taught using media assistance in the form of WhatsApp, while the control class was not taught. Data collection uses tests and observation sheets. Data analysis used ANOVA with the help of SPSS version 27. The results showed that 1) there were significant differences in student learning activities in online learning with media assistance and students without media assistance; 2) there is no significant difference in creative thinking between students who are taught using media and students who are not given media assistance. Based on the results, findings and conclusions, suggestions will be explained for implementing future learning and further research. Especially the creation of an online learning environment for students who are still adapting to advances in internet technology.","PeriodicalId":136179,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Education","volume":"29 30","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140450229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For most of the student population, College Algebra is a terminal course and only a small portion of students take it for further mathematics courses. The traditional content of College Algebra does not serve either group of students well (Mathematical Association of America, 2004; Mathematical Association of America & National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2012). In recent years, at a large Hispanic-serving university, the course design for liberal arts students has been changed. An active-learning curriculum has been implemented, namely Quantitative Reasoning. This curriculum engages students with opportunities to learn math concepts from relevant everyday sources and even their own personally collected data. Students build their own understanding of mathematics by relevant data-based situations experienced through preview activities designed to prepare students for class, collaboration in class discussion and discovery through relevant problem situations, and practice activities extending learning after each lesson. The purpose of this study was to investigate student perceptions of their learning outcomes from an active-learning structured course. That is, what impact does a course design with pre-assignment tasks, authentic problem solving through collaboration in class, and practice assignments after lessons have on diverse student populations in a quantitative reasoning course?","PeriodicalId":136179,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134913143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
