Can Text Message Nudges Improve Academic Outcomes in College? Evidence from a West Virginia Initiative - Castleman, Benjamin; Meyer, Katharine (The Review of Higher Education, 2020)
Although socioeconomic disparities in college enrollment have declined, gaps in college completion persist by income and geography. We investigate a text messaging campaign in West Virginia, which addressed informational barriers and behavioral obstacles to college persistence by providing college students with simplified information, encouragement, and access to individualized advising. Using descriptive and matching methods, we find participating students were more likely to remain enrolled throughout their first year of college, and completed more course credits with suggestive evidence of improved academic performance. This evidence suggests colleges play an important role communicating information about academic expectations, support resources, and norms.

Understanding the professional learning and support needs of educators during the initial weeks of pandemic school closures through search terms and content use - Cavanaugh, Catherine; DeWeese, Abraham (Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 2020)
Beginning in February and March of 2020, school closures impacted at least 90% of the world’s population of students, according to UNESCO estimates. As educators swiftly shifted to teaching online, they sought information to guide their initial planning and teaching in new environments with new tools. Analysis of educators’ search terms and their use of support content during this period indicates the needs felt by educators globally and informs content and professional development support for preservice educators. The authors compared the volume of searches, frequency of search terms, and patterns of content use during this period to the previous year by educators using an education support website. Re- sults show that site use multiplied six times in volume, use of video increased by 30 times, and among the search terms and content topics used during and prior to this period, focus nar- rowed to digital and distance learning. Implications of these findings are that professional development providers can meet educators’ needs with video and a focus on the specific teaching practices that educators are learning as they transi- tion to distance teaching at an entry level.

Deconstructing EdTech frameworks based on their creators, features, and usefulness - Cherner, Todd; Mitchell, Chyrstine (Learning, Media and Technology, 2020)
Several theoretical frameworks have been released in recent years to inform how educational technology (edtech) can be used in the classroom. These frameworks range from providing a holistic view of the role edtech plays in education at a macrolevel to analyzing how edtech is used by students and teachers. With a growing number of them now available, researchers have yet to systemically collect and analyze a set of these frameworks, which can result in edtech not being used effectively by practitioners and researchers alike. In response, this study employed a content analysis methodology to analyze nine frameworks designed for using edtech. This study will report its findings regarding the creators of these frameworks, features used to draw attention to the frameworks, and which frameworks key stakeholders may find most useful. To conclude, implications for contextualizing these frameworks within the EdTech Ecosystem will be offered along with critical considerations for practitioners and researchers to use when selecting edtech frameworks for their work.

Preparing K-12 Schools for a Pandemic before It Occurs - Christensen, Rhonda; Alexander, Curby (Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 2020)
While almost all K-12 schools closed for the COVID-19 pandemic with little or no preparation, one school began to prepare 12 years ago for a time such as this. In 2006, the school leadership team began to consider what would happen to teaching and learning in the event of a large-scale pandemic causing the buildings to be closed. The school implemented a Distance Learning Day (DLD) in fall 2007 and continued it for one day each of five years. This paper describes the rationale, implementation, and outcomes of the endeavor, as well as its impact on students, teachers and parents. Implications for professional development are also included for those seeking to replicate this approach.

Can Virtual Replace In-person Coaching? Experimental Evidence on Teacher Professional Development and Student Learning in South Africa - Cilliers, J; Fleischz, B; Kotzex, J; Mohohlwanex, N; Taylor, S; Thulare, T (2020)
We experimentally compare on-site with virtual coaching of South African teachers. After three years, on-site coaching improved students’ English oral language and reading proﬁciency by 0.31 and 0.13 SD, respectively. Virtual coaching improved English oral language proﬁciency (0.12 SD), had no impact on English reading proﬁciency, and an unintended negative eﬀect on home language literacy. Classroom observations show that on-site coaching improved teaching practice and that virtual coaching led to larger crowding-out of home language teaching time. Implementation and survey data suggest that the use of technology did not preclude eﬀectiveness, but rather that in-person contact enabled more accountability and support.

Success plan for the online learning experience: Student engagement, teacher accessibility, & relationships - Combs, Ruchelle (Middle Grades Review, 2020)
Online teaching in the time of COVID-19 is a new and sometimes scary experience for even the most seasoned educator. It is certainly apparent that many students are struggling to make this instantaneous adjustment. Teachers have a duty to mitigate this stress as they continue to provide relevant instruction. Based on my experience, this can be achieved by fostering student engagement, staying highly assessible, and maintaining the relationships that were formed face-to-face in the conventional classroom.

Mobile learning and pedagogical opportunities: A configurative systematic review of PreK-12 research using the SAMR framework - Crompton, Helen; Burke, Diane (Computers and Education, 2020)
Scholars postulate that mobile devices can be used to transform learning. However, there is a paucity of evidence to determine if mobile learning is redefining learning or if these devices are being used to replicate past teaching practices. To fill this gap in scholarly understanding, this systematic review was conducted to examine studies from 2014 to 2019 involving mobile devices in PK-12 (2–18 years) learning. Technology use was coded using the Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition (SAMR) framework. This framework was empirically extended and presented in this study. The data revealed unique findings, including the concerning discovery that while mobile technologies can and were used to transform learning in 54% of the studies, 46% of the time devices were used to replicate activities that can be conducted without technology. This has larger implications on school integration of mobile devices and whether these devices are being used to redefine learning to provide the most benefit to PK-12 students.

Education and the COVID-19 pandemic - Daniel, Sir John (PROSPECTS, 2020)
The COVID-19 pandemic is a huge challenge to education systems. This Viewpoint offers guidance to teachers, institutional heads, and officials on addressing the crisis. What preparations should institutions make in the short time available and how do they address students’ needs by level and field of study? Reassuring students and parents is a vital element of institutional response. In ramping up capacity to teach remotely, schools and colleges should take advantage of asynchronous learning, which works best in digital formats. As well as the normal classroom subjects, teaching should include varied assignments and work that puts COVID-19 in a global and historical context. When constructing curricula, designing student assessment first helps teachers to focus. Finally, this Viewpoint suggests flexible ways to repair the damage to students’ learning trajectories once the pandemic is over and gives a list of resources.

The likely impact of COVID-19 on education: Reflections based on the existing literature and recent international datasets. - Di Pietro, Giorgio; Biagi, Federico; Dinis Mota Da Costa, Patricia; Karpinski, Zbigniew; Mazza, Jacapo (European Commission, 2020)
In order to reduce the spread of COVID-19, most countries around the world have decided to temporarily close educational institutions. However, learning has not stopped but is now fully taking place online as schools and universities provide remote schooling. Using existing literature and evidence from recent international data (Eurostat, PISA, ICILS, PIRLS, TALIS), this report attempts to gain a better understanding of how the COVID-19 crisis may affect students’ learning. It looks at the different direct and indirect ways through which the virus and the measures adopted to contain it may impact children’s achievement. ‘Conservative’ estimates for a few selected EU countries consistently indicate that, on average, students will suffer a learning loss. It is also suggested that COVID-19 will not affect students equally, will influence negatively both cognitive and non-cognitive skills acquisition, and may have important long-term consequences in addition to the short-term ones.

External Validity: Four Models of Improving Student Achievement - Duflo, Annie; Kiessel, Jessica; Lucas, Adrienne (National Bureau of Economic Research, 2020)
Randomized controlled trials in lower-income countries have demonstrated ways to increase learning, in speciﬁc settings. This study uses a large-scale, nationwide RCT in Ghana to show the external validity of four school-based interventions inspired by other RCTs. Even though the government implemented the programs within existing systems, student learning increased across all four models, more so for female than male students, and many gains persisted one year after the program ended. Three of the four interventions had a similar cost eﬀectiveness. The intervention that directly targeted classroom teachers increased the likelihood that teachers were engaged with students.

Vietnam: Covid-19 and the Challenges for the Education Sector - Duong, Kim Anh (Friedrich Ebert Stiftung, 2020)
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has been growing exponentially. Like every sector, education at all levels is suffering. According to UNESCO(1), as of April 8, 2020, worldwide, there were nearly 1.6 billion affected students; 188 countries have implemented nationwide closures of schools, impacting 91.3% of the world’s student population. It should be noted that the sudden closures of schools, colleges and universities have disrupted the flow of learning and teaching activities.

Online initial teacher education: a systematic review of the literature - Dyment, Janet E; Downing, Jillian Jane (Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education, 2020)
This paper presents a systematic review of the literature on online initial teacher education. This review is timely given the growing numbers of online students studying teacher education in Australia and beyond. The paper begins with a presentation of the search protocol including search terms, databases, and inclusion/exclusion criteria that resulted in 492 refereed articles being included in the review. Analysis of title and abstract of these articles allowed insight into a variety of factors and trends, including journal of publication, year of publication, research approach, and key focal areas. Two well-established research focal areas emerged: technological pedagogical innovations and student experiences of studying teacher education online. Two emerging research focal areas were teacher educator experiences of teaching online and online teacher education in traditionally experiential specialisations, such as drama and outdoor education. When all the articles are considered holistically, a fragmented and siloed research approach is revealed, evidenced by a large number of journals publishing articles on multiple focal areas, leading to considerable repetition among the evidences presented across the articles. As such, this paper highlights the need for a more coherent and organised approach to research in online teacher education and its dissemination to all stakeholders.

COVID-19, middle level teacher candidates, and colloquialisms: Navigating emergency remote field experiences - Eisenbach, Brooke; Greathouse, Paula; Acquaviva, Caroline (Middle Grades Review, 2020)
COVID-19 challenged teacher educators and teacher candidates in ways we could have never imagined. Colloquialisms regarding the move from educator preparation to practice shifted from common truths to dynamic considerations in light of the pandemic and transition to emergency remote teaching and learning. In this essay, we share our experiences working with middle level teacher candidates during the COVID-19 pandemic. We identify the ways in which our teacher candidates rose to the challenge and demonstrated critical thinking, creativity and compassion beyond our prior expectations of rising middle level educators amidst a time of unprecedented change and uncertainty.

Boosting preservice teachers’ competence and online teaching readiness through e-practicum during the COVID-19 outbreak - Ersin, Pinar; Atay, Derin; Mede, Enisa (International Journal of TESOL Studies, 2020)
The Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has caused disruptions in education in Turkey, as it has in many parts of the world. Faculties of Education that require practice teaching (practicum) are affected as well; due to the shutdown, pre-service English language teachers (PTs) are deprived of the field experience and actual classroom teaching practices in authentic school settings. Practicum constitutes an important part of teacher education and during practicum, “cooperating” teachers (i.e. teachers at practicum schools) and university instructors as teaching practice supervisors play crucial roles in equipping PTs with necessary theoretical and practical skills. The present study took place in the English Language Education program of a competitive state university in Turkey. At the university, all theory-oriented courses moved to synchronous platforms without much difficulty with almost full attendance of the students. As for the practicum, Turkish Higher Education Council let the universities decide for themselves. As researchers working at two different universities, Bahçeşehir University and Marmara University, Istanbul, Turkey, we designed an alternative practice to meet the needs of PTs and maintain the quality of the practicum: “e-practicum” under the supervision of the university supervisor who acted as the “e-mentor”. The aim was to increase PTs’ teaching competence and prepare them for online teaching. A virtual classroom consisting of twenty-five PTs was formed and six PTs performed microteaching to their peers who acted as students by using Zoom. After the e-practicum sessions, peers gave detailed feedback to the teacher PTs. The university supervisor provided e-mentoring right after each session. Then, each teacher PT reflected on e-practicum experience and e-mentoring. The findings revealed that PTs found the e-practicum useful because it helped them overcome online teaching fears.

Analyzing the Impact of COVID-19 on Education Professionals. Toward a Paradigm Shift: ICT and Neuroeducation as a Binomial of Action - Espino-Díaz, Luis; Fernandez-Caminero, Gemma; Hernandez-Lloret, Carmen-Maria; Gonzalez-Gonzalez, Hugo; Alvarez-Castillo, Jose-Luis (Sustainability, 2020)
This study analyzed the current situation of education in the context of the pandemic caused by COVID-19. The worldwide health emergency situation has caused the confinement of people and with it, the closure of centers and the transfer of face-to-face education to online education. Faced with these facts, teachers have had to adapt at a dizzying pace not only to new methodological approaches, but also to their own confinement, presenting high levels of stress. The purpose of this study is to offer a proposal that optimizes the work of education professionals in the current context of a pandemic through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) under the novel approach of the contributions of neuroeducation in the field of managing emotions and motivational processes, contributing to meaningful learning in students. The symbiosis of ICT and neuroeducation can make a great contribution to the paradigm shift that is taking place today.

Virtual teacher coaching may not be the solution we hoped for - Evans, David (Center For Global Development, 2020)
How can we help teachers to upgrade their pedagogical skills? Teacher coaching is a promising and increasingly popular candidate. Teacher coaching means teachers receive feedback in their place of work on specific things they can do better, not some general theory of pedagogy that’s completely disconnected from their day-to-day practice.

Education in Africa: What Are We Learning? - Evans, David; Acosta, Amina Mendez (2020)
Countries across Africa continue to face major challenges in education. In this review, we examine 145 recent empirical studies (from 2014 onward) on how to increase access to and improve the quality of education across the continent, specifically examining how these studies update previous research findings. We find that 64 percent of the studies evaluate government implemented programs, 36 percent include detailed cost analysis, and 35 percent evaluate multiple treatment arms. We identify several areas where new studies provide rigorous evidence on topics that do not figure prominently in earlier evidence syntheses. New evidence shows promising impacts of structured pedagogy interventions (which typically provide a variety of inputs, such as lesson plans and training for teachers together with new materials for students) and of mother tongue instruction interventions, as well as from a range of teacher programs, including both remunerative (pay-for-performance of various designs) and non-remunerative (coaching and certain types of training) programs. School feeding delivers gains in both access and learning. New studies also show long-term positive impacts of eliminating school fees for primary school and positive impacts of eliminating fees in secondary school. Education technology interventions have decidedly mixed impacts, as do school grant programs and programs providing individual learning inputs (e.g., uniforms or textbooks).

Gender gaps in education: The long view - Evans, David; Akmal, Maryam; Jakiela, Pamela (Centre for Global Development, 2020)
Many countries remain far from achieving gender equality in the classroom. Using data from 126 countries between 1960 and 2010, we document four facts. First, women are more educated today than fifty years ago in every country in the world. Second, they remain less educated than men in the vast majority of countries. Third, in many countries with low levels of education for both men and women in 1960, gender gaps widened as more boys went to school, then narrowed as girls enrolled; thus, gender gaps got worse before they got better. Fourth, gender gaps rarely persist in countries where boys are attaining high levels of education. Most countries with large, current gender gaps have low levels of male educational attainment. Many also perform poorly on other measures of development such as life expectancy and GDP per capita. Improving girls’ education is an important goal in its own right, but closing gender gaps in education will not be sufficient to close critical gaps in adult life outcomes.

How big are effect sizes in international education studies? - Evans, David; Yuan, Fei (Center for Global Development, 2020)
In recent years, a growing literature has measured the impact of education interventions in low- and middle-income countries on both access and learning outcomes. But interpretation of those effect sizes as large or small tends to rely on benchmarks developed by a psychologist in the United States in the 1960s. In this paper, we demonstrate the distribution of standardized effect sizes on learning and access from hundreds of studies from low- and middle-income countries.

Secondary Education During Lockdown Situation Due to Covid-19 Pandemic in Bangladesh: Teachers’ Response on Online Classes - Farhana, Z; Tanni, S; Shabnam, S; Chowdhury, S (Journal of Education and Practice, 2020)
Online classes started in many secondary schools one month after the compulsory closure of all education institutions in Bangladesh. This study explores the current scenario as well as challenges of adaptation of online classes in secondary education in terms of teachers’ experience. The study followed sequential exploratory mixed-method approach. Five secondary teachers were interviewed and 54 secondary teachers from 17 districts in Bangladesh were surveyed over telephone, Google forms and by email. The quantitative data was analyzed with Microsoft Excel and the thematic analysis approach had been followed for the qualitative one. The findings revealed that a good number of teachers have started teaching online by using social media platforms despite of not having any training or experience. Very few respondent teachers were found to take online examination; instead they are trying to assess the students from the feedback of given home works and home assignments. Teachers are facing numerous challenges like deficit of digital equipment, lack of expertise, unfamiliarity with the LMS, proficiency in assessment technique etc. The paper concludes with few recommendations such as providing proper devices to the teachers and students to participate in online class; facilitate rigorous training to enhance technology-based skills and capacities of the teachers so as to get the expected outcome.

Application of EdTech in Tanzania: Effectiveness of radio and television in teaching and learning amid COVID-19 pandemic - Feruzi, Sadiki M.; Li, Yang (International Journal of Advanced Engineering Research and Science, 2020)
On March 2020 school and university going students experienced termination of classes. The statement declared by the Tanzania prime minister honourable Kassim Majaliwa required all primary and secondary schools to postpone learning for a month and one day later universities were also asked to suspend studies and other activities. It was necessary to do so because of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 named by World Health Organisation as COVID-19 a pandemic that had spread and hit more than 150 countries. This paper intended to attain two major objectives, one was to explore the effectiveness of radio and television in handling teaching and learning process as an alternative adopted to ensure that students continue to be engaged in learning. Second, to examine the capabilities of the country through the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology to continue teaching and learning during the time of classroom disruption. The authors made a case study where radio and television platforms were adopted for teaching and learning. The results show that the transition from classroom teaching and learning to teaching and learning through radio and television stations platform was not effective. Similarly, the study shows that the government has demonstrated incompetence in running and monitoring the programme mostly in terms of programme preparation and implementation. However, this experience has built a solid foundation for the future cases, when the country, facilitators, students and parents will be more arranged than now.

Innovation for Education, the Mentoring Community of Practice (MCOP) - FHI360 (2020)
The rapid expansion of basic education in Rwanda has strained the delivery of quality education while increasing the demand for effective teachers. The shift to instruction in English has also resulted in an urgent need to improve the English-language proficiency of teachers. The Government of Rwanda is addressing these needs by providing English and pedagogical support to basic education teachers through a school-based mentoring initiative, called the Innovation for Education, the Mentoring Community of Practice (MCOP) project.

A model of distance special education support services amidst COVID-19 - Frederick, Janice; Raabe, Ginger; Rogers, Valerie; Pizzica, Jessica (Behavioural Analysis in Practice, 2020)
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the everyday life of many individuals across the globe. The school closures across the majority of the United States have presented administrators, educators, and behavior analysts with the unprecedented task of deciding how best to teach and support our students, especially those accessing special education services. The current paper describes the steps our program took, in light of school closures, to advocate for and ultimately create and implement a model that allows special education students to access the behavior analytic educational supports they had received on campus (e.g., BCBA and paraprofessional support) in a novel and remote manner. We share details regarding the advocacy and collaboration process as well as the distance special education support model itself in hopes that similar processes and models can be implemented across geographical locations to assist special education students in accessing their educational and behavioral supports in a meaningful way throughout current and future school closures.

Transforming online teaching and learning: Towards learning design informed by information science and learning sciences - Fujita, Nobuko (Information and Learning Science, 2020)
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the practical work of learning designers with the aim of helping members of the information science (IS) and learning sciences (LS) communities understand how evidence-informed learning design of online teaching and online learning in higher education is relevant to their research agendas and how they can contribute to this growing field. Design/methodology/approach: Illustrating how current online education instructional designs largely ignore evidence from research, this paper argues that evidence from IS and LS can encourage more effective and nuanced learning designs for e-learning and online education delivery and suggest how interdisciplinary collaboration can advance shared understanding. Findings: Recent reviews of the learning design show that tools and techniques from the LS can support students in self-directed and self-regulated learning. IS studies complement these approaches by highlighting the role that information systems and computer–human interaction. In this paper, the expertise from IS and LS are considered as important evidence to improve learning design, particularly vis-à-vis digital divide concerns that students face during the COVID-19 pandemic. Originality/value: This paper outlines important ties between the learning design, LS and IS communities. The combined expertise is key to advancing the nuanced design of online education, which considers issues of social justice and equity, and critical digital pedagogy.

COVID-19 and remote learning : Experiences of parents with children during the pandemic - Garbe, Amber; Ogurlu, Uzeyir; Logan, Nikki; Cook, Perry (American Journal of Qualitative Research, 2020)
In the spring of 2020, schools across the globe closed their doors to decrease the spread of the viral outbreak during the COVID -19 pandemic. This physical closure led to a rapid shift to remote learning which placed more responsibility for learning on parents and guardians. As one of the major stakeholders in the education process, experiences of parents with their children during remote learning are worth examining to inform future policy decision making. This study aimed to investigate parents’ experiences and struggles during school closure using an online survey. Thematic coding was conducted to analyze parental responses regarding their greatest educational struggle experienced during the COVID school closure. The results indicate parents agreed with the school closure policy and were generally satisfied with the level of support provided by school districts whilst describing some areas of struggle. Parents described having difficulties with balancing responsibilities, learner motivation, accessibility, and learning outcomes. The results of the study suggest some important implications and recommendations for educators and policymakers.

A COVID-19 intervention: Using digital escape rooms to provide professional development to alternative certification educators - Gómez, Miguel (Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 2020)
Teachers, support staff, schools, and school districts have faced a multitude of challenges in adapting their known and familiar practices to the new realities and restrictions that have been put in place due to the outbreak of COVID-19. These challenges are daunting and difficult for many in our education system. Fortunately, a numerous amount of our educators are resilient, creative, and determined to overcome these new challenges. Using their prior experiences and wis- dom, these educators can adapt and change to our new edu- cational environment. However, one group of educators have faced these challenges without the benefit of educational ex- periences. Alternative certification teachers, in just their first year of teaching, with no prior educational experience, have been thrust into this new post COVID-19 landscape. Using a digital escape room as a model, the author provided these inexperienced educators with professional development in problem-based learning designed to help these teachers navi- gate this new educational landscape.

Social distancing meet social media: Digital tools for connecting students, teachers, and citizens in an emergency - Greenhow, Christine; Chapman, Amy (Information and Learning Science, 2020)
Purpose: In a public health crisis where social distancing, or physical distancing while in public spaces, is the new normal, social media offer respite from being alone. Recent statistics show spikes in social media usage worldwide during the Covid-19 pandemic. More than just easing loneliness, such freely available digital tools offer affordances for education in an emergency. Design/methodology/approach: This paper summarizes insights from literature reviews of over a decade of research and recent case studies on the benefits of teaching with social media in K-12 education. Findings: The authors highlight three affordances of social media for fostering active learning, community building and civic participation and describe how social media can be used in conjunction with conventional learning management systems. Furthermore, the authors argue that the unprecedented health crisis that is faced today requires the participation of responsible citizens of all ages; K-12 public education is on the front lines of preparing informed and active citizens and the integration of social media as part of remote education plans can help. Practical implications: The paper includes instructional guidelines for K-12 teachers and instructional designers in various settings who seek to integrate social media as part of their strategy for teaching students at a distance and facilitating their civic participation. Originality/value: This paper fulfills an identified need for evidence-based and pragmatic approaches to K-12 online teaching and learning using technologies already widely in use (i.e. social media).

Deploying an e-learning Environment in Zanzibar: Digital Content Curation - Groeneveld, Caspar; Kibga, Elia; Kaye, Tom (EdTech Hub, 2020)
In April 2020, the Zanzibar Ministry of Education and Vocational Training (MoEVT) and the World Bank approached EdTech Hub (the Hub) to explore the feasibility of implementing a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). The MoEVT, the World Bank and the Hub agreed that the Hub would work with the MoEVT to develop the following 1. A practical and actionable report analysing key factors to be considered in deploying an e-learning platform in Zanzibar. 2. A report documenting the process of sourcing appropriate digital content, aligning this content with the curriculum and populating the e-learning system accordingly. 3. An implementation plan to guide the deployment of the e-learning system.

“We Always Make It Work”: Teachers’ agency in the time of crisis - Gudmundsdottir, Greta Björk; Hathoway, Dawn; Hathaway, Dawn M (Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 2020)
As of mid-April 2020, 1.5 billion learners were affected by school closures across 191 countries due to the COVID-19 pandemic (UNESCO, 2020). During the weeks of school closures, teachers were expected to become online teach- ers overnight. As teacher educators, we were curious about teachers’ readiness for online practice. In the Teachers’ Read- iness Online (TRIO) survey (Gudmundsdottir & Hathaway, 2020), distributed internationally, we collected perspectives from 1186 teachers about their experiences related to online teaching in the early weeks of COVID-19 school closures. In this paper, we present preliminary data from Norwegian and US teachers related to previous experiences with online teaching and elaborations on readiness. We examined data for evidence of pedagogical, ethical, attitudinal, and technical (PEAT) dimensions (Dicte, 2019) to determine how teachers’ agency was activated in the times of the COVID-19 pandem- ic. Findings highlight that despite teachers’ inexperience and unpreparedness for online teaching, they were moderately prepared to use various digital tools and willing to make on- line learning work for them and their students.

A revised PIRLS 2011 to 2016 trend for South Africa and the importance of analysing the underlying microdata - Gustafsson, Martin (Stellenbosch University, Department of Economics, 2020)
Given South Africa’s weak performance in international testing programmes, there is a strong interest in gauging improvements within these programmes. The finding that South Africa saw no progress between 2011 and 2016 in the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) programme, which tests Grade 4 reading competencies, was inconsistent with considerable progress seen in a couple of other testing programmes. Moreover, an earlier PIRLS average score for Grade 4 from 2006 suggested that the 2011 mean score used to determine the flat 2011 to 2016 flat trend was problematic. The current paper uses the underlying microdata for PIRLS 2011 and 2016, which are publicly available, to examine the trend. It is clear that the 2011 mean score used by the international PIRLS analysts to arrive at the flat trend cannot be correct. It should be considerably lower. It should be noted that the 2011 mean for South Africa involved an unusual process. South Africa was the only country for which an original mean on an easier scale, prePIRLS, had to be recalibrated to the main PIRLS scale. This was because South Africa was the only country participating in the easier prePIRLS in 2011 and in some form of PIRLS in 2016. There was clearly something wrong with the 2011 recalibration. In correspondence, the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA), the body that conducts PIRLS globally, acknowledged, in part on the basis of a preliminary version of the current paper, that the originally published 2011 to 2016 South Africa trend should now not be considered reliable. They also confirmed that the classical score gains for South Africa reflected in the paper are correct. The method used in the paper is essentially to examine classical score gains between 2011 and 2016 with respect to common items, and then to recalibrate that to the main PIRLS scale. As an additional verification, the paper checks that gains remain after one controls for socio-economic status. The paper concludes that South Africa in fact saw a large gain between 2011 and 2016, equal to around 0.05 standard deviations a year. This is a fast rate of improvement by international standards. Of the 43 countries with 2011 to 2016 trends in PIRLS, South Africa displayed the third-steepest improvement, after Morocco and Oman.

Education in precarious times: A comparative study across six countries to identify design priorities for mobile learning in a pandemic - Hall, Tony; Connolly, Cornelia; Ó Grádaigh, Seán; Burden, Kevin; Kearney, Matthew; Schuck, Sandy; Bottema, Jeroen; Cazemier, Gerton; Hustinx, Wouter; Evens, Marie; Koenraad, Ton; Makridou, Eria; et al. (Information and Learning Science, 2020)
Purpose: This paper is based on the emergency changes we have had to make in the European DEIMP Project (2017-2020), “Designing and Evaluating Innovative Mobile Pedagogies” (DEIMP). DEIMP is undertaken by a transnational consortium comprising partner institutions and schools from the UK (coordinating), Australia, Belgium, Cyprus, Ireland and The Netherlands. As well as the enforced changes to the project, there have been major adjustments in how education is being provided in each of our countries, across all sectors: primary, secondary and tertiary. The purpose of this paper is to provide pragmatic guidelines that will help us respond effectively in the uncertain present, and plan systematically for an unpredictable, post-pandemic future. Design/methodology/approach: The authors outline 21 design principles underpinning innovative mobile learning, which will be of pragmatic use to all using mobile learning in the COVID-19 pandemic. These principles have emerged in the context of the three-year European DEIMP Project (2017-2020). The authors also examine major educational changes that have recently been imposed upon teachers and educational researchers, and key aspects of the current emergency response in education internationally, and resultant implications for educational technology and mobile learning. Findings: A living record highlighting what is currently happening in the educational systems of the DEIMP project’s respective partner countries. The paper outlines design concerns and issues, which will need to be addressed as the authors endeavour to bridge both the digital divide and digital use divide in remote education. Furthermore, the paper illustrates 21 pragmatic design principles underpinning innovative mobile pedagogies. Originality/value: A comparative study of the effects of the pandemic across six countries, including The UK, Australia, Belgium, Cyprus, Ireland and The Netherlands. The authors outline 21 design principles for mobile learning, which is hoped will help us respond effectively in the uncertain present, and plan systematically for an unpredictable, post-pandemic future.

Flipped Classroom in Teacher Education: A Scoping Review - Han, Han; Røkenes, Fredrik Mørk (Frontiers in Education, 2020)
Although flipped classroom (FC) has been popular in education since the 2000s, there is a lack of reviews on how the teaching approach has been applied and what has been gained in the field of teacher education. Most reviews focus either on implementation and learning outcomes with students in higher education and disciplines other than education or on the latter approaches with primary and secondary school pupils. This article presents a scoping literature review of 33 studies published between 2014 until 2019 on flipped classroom (FC) in teacher education. Our analysis points out that studies were mainly conducted in the United States, with an increased implementation in European and Asian countries, and with adoption primarily in the disciplines pedagogy, science, and language arts. Moreover, a majority of studies employed mixed methods with surveys being the most commonly used instrument to collect data. Two main foci were identified across the reviewed studies: student perceptions and academic performance. The analysis of the former revealed six outcomes (1. Attitude, motivation, and emotion; 2. Content delivery; 3. Learning environment; 4. Learning experience; 5. Instructor and student presence; 6. Engagement). Based on our synthesis, we discuss current trends and future development in the research field, FC's pedagogical value added in teacher education, and potential knowledge gaps in the research literature.
