Studies on conceptions of force, specifically, have produced very different results in different contexts around the world. In this study, an integrative theoretical framework linking semantic differences across languages to concept learning in childhood is proposed, motivating the hypothesis that language is a population variable that impacts the coherence of young learners’ conceptions of force. Method This study uses the same structured interview developed in a previous study by Ioannides and Vosniadoue but in a new context—the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia—with three groups of elementary school children (7–12 years of age; n = 185): monolingual in Arabic; monolingual in English; and bilingual in Arabic and English. Findings The results support the hypothesis that language impacts the coherence of children’s conceptions of force with Arabic monolinguals exhibiting greater coherence than English monolinguals, and bilingual children exhibiting intermediate coherence. Contribution This paper provides evidence for the effect of semantic differences across languages and the phenomenon of lexical polysemy on the coherence of children’s initial conceptions of force. The relationship between the integrative theoretical framework proposed and other theories of conceptual change and its novel pedagogical implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":48043,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Learning Sciences","volume":"126 1","pages":"376 - 426"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77272227","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}

In recent years, learning scientists have explored the connections between learning and various types of identities, including disciplinary identity, gender, race, and more. In this article we focus on national identity, to understand how it is constructed and how it might be made more inclusive through learning. Methods Drawing on sociolinguistics and discourse analysis methods, we present a telling case study aimed at elucidating previously obscure theoretical relations by providing a rich and detailed account of a single student whose national identity shifted over the course of a school year. Findings Our analysis shows how Joshua, a 9th grade secular Jewish-Israeli student, constructed his national identity. Joshua’s identity developed across three stages, which were marked by a shift from an essentialist disposition to a constructionist one and by an increasing sense of belonging. Contribution We highlight a connection between learners’ views on the continuum between essentialism and constructionism and their degree of belongingness. Our findings suggest that a constructionist approach to identity can translate into a greater sense of belonging and help ameliorate some cases of social marginalization.","PeriodicalId":48043,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Learning Sciences","volume":"12 1","pages":"427 - 454"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81701819","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}

However, there are relatively few studies on the effect of the combination of these activities on learning outcomes. In this study, we investigated the combination of self-study and discussions at a selective Korean university. Methods The present study compared the two-part instructional sequence of three groups: watching a video lecture (LD) and self-study (SD) groups, both followed by student-led discussions, and reviewing after watching a video lecture (LR) group. We compared test results using verbatim, paraphrased, and transfer items. We also carried out in-depth analyses of dialogs in the discussions. Findings In three separate experiments, we found that the discussion groups scored significantly higher than the review group. Moreover, the SD group performed better than the LD group of the two discussion groups. Analyses of dialogue suggest that self-study elicited more active and productive content from the students than lectures, leading to superior performance.

And because there are currently so many disconnected communities of people writing about learning engineering and calling themselves learning engineers, and many of those people have been advocating for a far less expansive view of what learning entails than the learning sciences community proposes, he wonders whether connecting the learning sciences and learning engineering will diminish the learning sciences. These concerns, I believe, are unfounded; instead, I believe, as I’ve been preaching for the past decade (Kolodner, ISLS keynote, 2012), that we should be more worried that what we are learning in our research is not better appreciated and known by others outside of the learning sciences community. What we have learned about how to support learning and the work we’ve done toward showing what’s possible to implement in schools, should be, but is still little present, in the imagination of policy makers, teachers, parents, administrators, and the designers of curriculum and learning technologies. One reason for that is that too many in the education, academic, and policy “establishments” value lab-based and large-scale experimental research over what we do. Another reason is that we aren’t involved enough in participating in activities that would challenge establishment views. Yet another is that we (the learning sciences community) are not preparing and encouraging our students to take positions in organizations that are designing the newest learning technologies and curriculum products, or in organizations that are helping educators and educational organizations refine their pedagogical approaches, cultures, and social practices.","PeriodicalId":48043,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Learning Sciences","volume":"55 1","pages":"305 - 323"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85115983","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}

Methods Our research questions centered on identifying (RQ1) the types of problems that require students’ collective regulation, . Our population included learners aged 8-12 enrolled in a play-based after school HCI design club. Using micro-analytic techniques, we examined the HCI design processes of four teams over nine sessions and four learners over two years. Findings We identified the most common problems students encountered, how regulation and negotiation played out across different levels of analysis, what types of learning occurred as participants worked to improve collaborative processes over time, and the role that technology played in the process.

The analysis focuses on how the group describes its shared modes of knowing, drawing on the group’s history and their interpreted enactment of these modes in an improvised scene. Findings Improvisation in this group requires two inter-related forms of knowing: Shared Social Practice (SSP) and Collaborative Affective Attunement (CAA), where SSP involves definable repertoires, resources, conventions, and techniques, and CAA involves affective sensibility of in-the-moment responding, or affective attunement. These two forms of knowing develop over the course of a group’s history and are entangled in complex ways over the course of performance.

However, much of the research in these areas examines how teachers reason during sustained collegial discourse outside the classroom. Methods This exploratory case study of one side-by-side coaching session, in which a coach and teacher collaborate to support both student and teacher learning in the classroom, qualitatively examined the coach-teacher discourse to determine whether and how pedagogical sensemaking can occur in a practice-embedded teacher learning setting. Findings We find that generative pedagogical sensemaking is possible despite the contextual constraints. Findings indicate that teacher-coach interactions included and frequently moved between talk at three altitudes: within, across, and beyond moments of the lesson. The topics of these interactions were complex and connected across the lesson. Contribution These findings point to particular affordances of practice-embedded settings for generative pedagogical sensemaking. While prior research has emphasized the need for sustained time for sensemaking to support teacher learning, this study expands this conception by finding that, when coupled with shared experiences of pedagogy, brief, cumulative interactions during teaching can also create opportunities for generativity.","PeriodicalId":48043,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Learning Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"171 - 210"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81412854","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}
