Innovative behavior can be described as a process in which new ideas are generated, created, developed, applied, promoted, realized, and modified by employees to benefit role performance. Various reasons, such rapid technological social changes society, underline the necessity for innovative of certainly teachers. However, little research has been conducted that explores teacher factors influence this or what effects achieved through behavior. In systematic literature review, we develop...
Since the turn of this century, much world has undergone tectonic socio-technological change. Computers have left isolated basements research institutes and entered people’s homes. Network connectivity advanced from slow unreliable modems to high-speed broadband. Devices evolved: stationary desktop computers ever-present, always-connected smartphones. These developments been accompanied by new digital practices, changing expectations, not least in education, where enthusiasm for technologies...
Although there are research findings supporting the positive effects of computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL), problems have been reported regarding process itself, group formation, and dynamics. These can be traced back to impeded social interaction between members. Social is necessary (a) for members learn from each other in a CSCL environment (b) socioemotional processes help create space where trust, sense community, strong interpersonal relationships exist. This article...
Teachers' innovative behaviour and professional development are important aspects of high-quality education. It is often thought that motivation influences teachers' development. The main purpose this study to gain more insight into motivational processes contributing behaviour. Using Self-Determination Theory, both intrinsic basic psychological need satisfaction addressed. From an organizational psychology perspective, occupational self-efficacy also included in the hypothesized model....
Social presence is a construct that has attracted the attention of many educational scholars involved in online collaborative learning settings wherein all dialogue happening through text-based asynchronous and synchronous communication channels. The social group members associated with degree participation interaction amongst them and, as such, therefore considered critical variable for learning. Community Inquiry (CoI) framework defines ability to project one's personal identity community...
Information and communication technology (ICT) can enable, support, reinforce the introduction of new pedagogical practices that comply with educational demands twenty-first-century knowledge society. However, despite this potential delivering skills-based professional development increase in level ICT infrastructure, teachers are more often reluctant rather than willing to use ICT. This article reviews existing literature 1) select a theoretical model is suited explain this, 2) uncover...
Despite the fact that innovative behaviour of teachers is important for quality teaching in our knowledge society, there still little research into leadership and organizational factors influence teachers’ behaviour. By combining self-concept theory, social exchange theory a hierarchical model distance variables to human from an interactive perspective, we tried unravel relationships between school organization teacher variables. Based on longitudinal data (2011, 2012, 2013) select sample...
Background Assessment for Learning (AfL) is believed to create a rich learning environment in which students develop their cognitive and metacognitive strategies. Monitoring student growth providing scaffolds that shed light on the next step process are hypothesized be essential elements of AfL enhance However, empirical evidence relation between students' strategy use scarce. Aim This study investigates elementary school Sample The sample comprised 528 grade four six (9- 12-year-olds) from...
Teachers' assessment literacy affects the quality of assessments and is, therefore, an essential part teachers' competence. Recent studies define as a dynamic, contextual social construct, situated in practice mediated by identity conceptions assessment. This study provides further elaboration exploring from sociocultural perspective. Eleven online focus group interviews were conducted within context Dutch higher professional education between June December 2020. A template analysis method...
AbstractIn this article, we report on a study that investigated the motivational (e.g. intrinsic motivation) and dispositional variables attitudes) determine teachers' intention to use or not digital learning materials (DLMs). To understand direct indirect relationships between these variables, replicated in which self-determination theory (SDT) of planned behaviour/integrated model behaviour prediction (IMBP) are combined distinction was made global level psychological needs, contextual as...
Abstract This study investigated whether school organizational variables (ie, transformative leadership (TL), ICT‐infrastructure (technical and social) learning climate were related to teachers' dispositional attitude, perceived norm behavior control [PBC]). The direct indirect influences of the on intention use digital materials (DLMs) also investigated. A longitudinal design was used with three measurements spread out over four years. total number 544 randomly selected teachers from Dutch...

In line with Reasoned Action Approach (Fishbein & Ajzen, 2010), directly affect attitudes, perceived norms, behavior control—the proximal variables that are main determinants intention or not technologies.

The concept of lifelong learning is becoming increasingly important in contemporary educational research and development. Although the relationship between experience (practice) knowledge (theory) an aspect formal process, current instructional design models do not point to strategies that support learners re- de-contextualisation (both directions Kolb's cycle). This article aims provide more insight into process creating redesigning experiential environments better understand complex exists...
To gain insight into how to promote teachers’ use of digital learning materials (DLMs) in their pedagogical practices we adopted the Integrated Model Behaviour Prediction investigate relationships between organizational and teacher-related variables. A representative sample 772 teachers from primary, secondary or vocational education took part a survey study. Conjectured combinations direct indirect variables were tested for best model fit with structural equation modelling. The results...
Fostering the development of Professional Learning communities (PLCs) should be a priority for education because their capacity to enhance teachers' professional development. However, in everyday educational (school) contexts studying and supporting growth PLCs is complex endeavour. As consequence, there lack instruments extensively investigating on different levels as well factors that influence This article describes first steps construction measuring instruments, suitable investigate...

Although many attempts have been made to clarify how academic knowledge can be used in practice, there are not empirical results that shed light on the process of developing from practical experience. The aim this study is examine what extent an authentic learning environment supports master students both processes re and de-contextualisation. We a qualitative quantitative research method evaluate impact environments differed level authenticity (less more authentic). Participants described...
