Beyond parents and educators: Older siblings as influential figures in nonformal engineering contexts

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Education, Volume 115, Issue 4, October 2026.
Abstract Background Given the growing need for a well‐prepared engineering workforce, strategic investments must extend beyond formal education to include nonformal learning environments. While prior research highlights the role of parents, educators, and mentors in shaping young children's engineering development, siblings remain an understudied yet ...

f-zpd algebras and a multilinear Nullstellensatz

open access: yesJournal of Algebra
Let $f=f(x_1,\dots,x_m)$ be a multilinear polynomial over a field $F$. An $F$-algebra $A$ is said to be $f$-zpd ($f$-zero product determined) if every $m$-linear functional $φ\colon A^{m}\rightarrow F$ which preserves zeros of $f$ is of the form $φ(a_1,\dots,a_m)=τ(f(a_1,\dots,a_m))$ for some linear functional $τ$ on $A$. We are primarily interested in

Differentiated instruction for gifted students and their peers in a Swedish year 1 primary school classroom: A focused ethnographic mixed‐methods study

open access: yesJournal of Research in Special Educational Needs, Volume 26, Issue 4, October 2026.
Abstract This study explores how differentiated instruction (DI) is planned, implemented and evaluated in a Swedish Year 1 classroom that includes two gifted students. Applying a focused ethnographic mixed‐methods design, it combines qualitative data with structured observations using the Classroom Observation Scales‐Revised (COS‐R).

f-zpd algebre

open access: yes, 2023
Za multilinearen polinom $f$ stopnje $m$ nad poljem $F$ pravimo, da je algebra $A$ $f$-zpd, če je vsak multilinearen funkcional $varphi:A^mrightarrow F$, ki ohranja ničle $f$, oblike $varphi(x_1,ldots,x_m) = tau(f(x_1,ldots,x_m))$ za vse $x_1,ldots,x_m$ iz $A$. V delu se ukvarjamo z vprašanjem, katere algebre so $f$-zpd.

Embedding Rule‐Based Augmented Reality Scaffolding in Experiential Learning Cycles: An SEM Study of Student Engagement in Lab‐Based STEM

open access: yesComputer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 34, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Augmented reality (AR) is increasingly used in STEM laboratories, but its pedagogical value depends on how digital guidance is embedded within structured physical learning activities rather than on technological novelty alone. This study examined an AR‐supported hydropower laboratory activity designed around Kolb's experiential learning cycle ...

Collaborative L2 Interactivity in Diverse ZPD-Based Proximal Contexts and Interactional Competence Development

open access: yes, 2014
Central to Vygotsky-inspired sociocultural theory (SCT) is the notion of zone of proximal development (ZPD) seen by several SLA researchers as a very useful framework within which L2 teaching and learning can take place.

Developing Second Language Writing through Scaffolding in the ZPD: A Magazine Project for an Authentic Audience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the present study, Vygotsky’s (1978, 1986) sociocultural framework of the zone of proximal development (ZPD) and scaffolding writing (Bodrova & Leong, 1995, 1996; Ross, 1976) are used as the theoretical basis to study the development of second ...
