This paper describes a meta-analysis of information and communication technology-based assessments in three ongoing global learning projects. Project faculty wanted to more systematically and more effectively assess student learning as well as the...

Global learning is at the heart of the development of multiple perspectives from other cultures. Modern information and communication technologies facilitate the development of learning relationships that lead to multiple perspectives on the topics...

One of the challenges for teacher educators is how to use Information and Communications Technology (ICT) tools to most effectively assist teacher candidates learn both desired subject matter and ICT content, and then in turn learn to transfer that...

Members of our team of mathematics and science educators have a variety of experiences in working with web-based environments in the form of course websites. The opportunity to build a website for global learning encouraged us to think carefully...

Abstract: Global Learning is best achieved through project-based or other active approaches to learning by teams of people living in countries with vastly different cultures. The definition of "global learning" used here is the combination of global ...

Abstract: The processes of assessment have begun to take pride of place in considerations of online teaching and learning. As the technological means become more robust for bringing students together online, designs of various kinds of assessment...

One of the challenges for teacher educators is how to use Information and Communications Technology (ICT) tools to most effectively assist teacher candidates learn both desired subject matter and ICT content, and then in turn learn to transfer that...

This paper reports on the initial implementation of a global learning project. The primary objective of the project was to develop in students a broader, cultural perspectives through co-reflection with an e-mate in sister classes at a collaborating ...

A major goal of education today is the development of autonomous learners. Research evidence suggests that a global learning environment with associated information-communication technology (ICT) tools provide catalytic conditions for development of ...

The Global Learning Curriculum Model (GL-CM) provides a K-12 interdisciplinary, collaborative, global focus to existing curriculum that adds depth and complexity, made possible through asynchronous and synchronous technologies. “Global learning...

An Australian preservice teacher education course used interactive television to present real-life, rural teaching situations as examples of best practice. These were integrated with problem-based learning scenarios focusing on dilemmas faced by...

This project is part of an ongoing effort to improve pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), and beliefs and attitudes (dispositions) of prospective elementary teachers about mathematics/science learning and teaching. The project is guided by the...

This paper reports on research efforts to establish how successful use of technology relates to achievement and motivation of at-risk secondary school students; and to identify aspects of technology use that appear to have a positive or negative...

Guided student-instructor reflections were already a part of an integrated mathematics and science methods class for preservice elementary teachers. A global learning dimension was added to further develop the reflective practice through cross...

This paper analyses the importance of integrating appropriate technologies into graduate teacher education programs in an attempt to encourage the transformation of teaching practice into a form appropriate for the new millennium. It describes a...

This paper discusses the integration of the ISTE foundation standards into the Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction teacher education program and the resulting impact on the teachers' acquisition of technology knowledge and skills,...
