Part 3 of a series of special issues on 'Meanings Under the Microscope' contributes to a diverse and comprehensive account of the constructions of meanings in multiple educational contexts and of the effects and impact of those constructions.
White develops a matrix of pedagogical approaches designed to maximise the effective use of graphics calculators to promote pedagogical change in secondary mathematics classrooms.
Torok focuses on the supposed theory-practice divide in behaviour management and pedagogy for pre-service teachers during fieldwork experience and the far greater influence of the supervising teachers' teacher-centred pedagogy.
Lim identifies effective strategies to promote Internet information literacy among secondary school students in Singapore.
Wang engages with the important issue of the internationalisation of higher education by exploring Chinese educational leaders' experiences in the University of Canberra's offshore program.
Masud et al focuses on a graduate course that uses a combination of project-based learning and what the authors call 'meaningful learning'. The authors argue that concept mapping needs to be used in tandem with contemporary learning theories to articulate with individual learning styles.
The International Journal of Pedagogies and Learning encapsulates and synthesises such a rich diversity of strategies, issues, concepts and arguments about educational philosophy, policy and practice that range broadly across contexts, countries and sectors.
