This study explored parental attendance of elementary school children's online classes from the perspective of parents and schoolteachers in Saudi Arabia. Results of a survey showed that more parents (54%) than teachers (46%) are in favor of parental attendance of children's online classes especially if the children are in the lower grades, but more teachers (54%) than parents (46%) disapprove of parental attendance of online course. Both parents and teachers reported that parents play several academic roles in online classes for elementary school children which include organizing, facilitating, monitoring children's attention in classes, motivating, nurturing, and supporting online learning. Those who do not prefer parental attendance indicated that traditionally, parents do not attend face-to-face classes and rules for online class attendance should be the same as face-to-face class attendance by parents. Children should be given the opportunity to adjust to online learning, face challenges, develop self-discipline, a sense of responsibility and autonomy. Both teachers and parents declared that parents should interfere if the child is having an internet connectivity, platform problem, difficulty submitting an assignment, is new to the platform or has a learning disability. The study reports teachers are parents' views in details with some recommendations for better online learning and parental involvement.

This study investigates how emergency practicum was carried out during the COVID-19 Pandemic in the past two years (Spring 2020 to Sprin 2022) in Saudi Arabia. Results of surveys with a sample of instructors from Languages, Translation, Literature, Linguistics, Education and Computer Science Departments at a sample of universities in Saudi Arabia showed that most universities shifted to online (virtual) practicum such as online micro-teaching, online simulated teaching, remote hands-on teaching using the Saudi Ministry of Education's Platform &quot;Madrasati&quot; that is used for Grades k-12; reduced hours and days of face-to-face teaching practicum and training; a Teacher Mentoring Program for EFL majors and a Cooperative Training Program for linguistics and translation students. Translation students also had the option to translate 14,000 words remotely (at home), discuss and receive feedback online instead of field training in translation. In computer science, the students could complete their face-to-face practicum in small groups during the summer to maintain social distancing or attend 135 hours of online training courses in a variety of computer fields. Recommendations for further emergency practicum solutions are given such as student-created videos and podcasts, delivering lessons via a variety of live-streaming software such as Elluminate, Periscope and Facebook Watch Party, joining professional teachers and translators' forums and pages on social media, developing Apps, robots, and conducting some learning analytics of students' data in distance learning contexts in Saudi Arabian schools and universities; offering courses that prepare students for remote (online) jobs during the Pandemic and beyond.
Verb Errors in 5th-Grade English Learners&apos; Written Responses: Relation to Writing Quality
Author: Fumero, Keisey

Type: Journal Articles
Subjects: Written Language,Verbs,Error Patterns,Grade 5,Elementary School Students,English Language Learners,Writing Skills,Expository Writing,Monolingualism,Accuracy,Grammar,Predictor Variables

The ability to express oneself through written language is a critically important skill for long-term educational, emotional, and social success. However, despite the importance of writing, English Learner students continue to perform at or below basic levels which warrants additional efforts to identify specific areas of weakness that impact writing quality. To that end, this study aims to describe the effect of verb accuracy on writing quality ratings of 5th-grade written expository samples. This study examines the responses of 243 students in the 5th grade who differed in English proficiency. The sample included 112 English Learners and 131 English-proficient students. Verb error patterns in written samples by English Learner students are described and compared to the patterns of their monolingual English-proficient peers. Group differences were examined in verb accuracy, types of verb errors, and overall grammaticality. A regression analysis was used to examine verb accuracy as a predictor of writing quality. Findings showed that English Learner students demonstrated more verb errors than their English-speaking peers and the total number of verb errors was a significant predictor of writing quality ratings.

The Science of Reading Is Incomplete without the Science of Teaching Reading

We now know a tremendous amount about early reading development, including the various skills that learners have to master and integrate to be both effective word readers and skilled comprehenders. The body of work referred to as the &quot;science of reading&quot; has helped illuminate these processes, and it offers important guidance for the learning opportunities that educators should be making available to students in kindergarten through third grade. However, the numerous advances of the last 50 years in the science of reading need to be complemented with equivalent attention to the &quot;science of teaching reading.&quot; The science of teaching reading is insufficient, and the following topics each deserve a research agenda of their own: how literacy is actually taught in the classroom, and how preservice and in-service teachers learn to teach reading and learn to create and sustain learning environments. If researchers are to effectively collaborate with practitioners to improve reading outcomes, we must ask root cause questions regarding the realities of how preservice and in-service teachers learn to teach reading, and what the barriers are to effective transfer and translation of their learning to student outcomes.

This meta-analysis reviews the literature on communication modes, communicative functions, and AAC type examined during interventions with school-age participants with ASD and/or ID who experience CCN. Considering potential differences related to outcomes taught could help identify the most effective means of individualizing AAC interventions. We performed a comprehensive literature search. A multi-level meta-analysis was implemented across 114 included studies with 330 participants and 767 effect size using two case-level effect size metrics, Tau and log response ratio. There were few statistically significant differences found between moderator categories (e.g., communication mode, communicative function, and AAC type implemented). This is likely due, in part, to the participant heterogeneity and an under-reporting of implementation factors.

The quantity and quality of talented individuals in STEM (science/S, technology/T, engineering/E and mathematics/M) fields contribute to a nation's overall competitiveness. Taiwan and many countries around the world are vigorously promoting the training of STEM professionals and the enhancement of STEM literacy for all as one of the key education objectives. Aiming to achieve the following two goals, this book is compiled and published: (1) to strengthen mutual understanding and connections between Taiwan and other highly competitive countries in the area of STEM education; and (2) to give highly competitive countries the opportunity to share their experiences in STEM education. Two editors-in-chief formulated manuscript guidelines including cross-country comparison components. Then, they invited STEM educators from 10 countries in the top 15 countries/economies in the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) World Competitiveness Ranking 2021 to follow the guidelines to write up country-specific chapters. After that, they conducted a peer review of all manuscripts and requested authors to make necessary revisions, and made a cross-country comparison which was presented as the 11th chapter. In addition to the 11th chapter, this book compiles country-specific articles about the STEM education background, the status of STEM education, and trends and issues in STEM education from 10 countries, namely Canada, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Ireland, Singapore, Sweden, Taiwan, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States of America. Twenty authors of the 11 chapters are listed in this book.
