Open Classroom Climate
In this paper, we apply the principles of Relational-Developmental Systems to explain the role classrooms and schools play in youths’ adaptive development. Taking an applied developmental perspective, we argue that an open classroom climate —where students perceive teachers to be supportive of diverse perspectives and welcoming of discussion about controversial social and political issues—is both a developmental asset and a necessary feature of c…
Curating for the classroom
Platforms such as TikTok are increasingly used for teachers’ informal professional development, yet little is known about content quality or how background knowledge may shape curation. We examined preservice teachers’ (PSTs’) selection of short-form social media classroom management videos as their knowledge of adolescent development increased. In total, 186 videos at preassessment and 173 at postassessment were analyzed using Kwok’s CM PReP fra…
Teaching through content area texts
Preservice teachers' (PSTs) purposes for selecting texts hold important implications for K–12 learners, yet PSTs often engage in self-censorship that limits the integration of diverse and equity-oriented materials. Using anti-bias pedagogies and the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC) as guiding frameworks, this mixed-methods study examines how PSTs' descriptions of content-area text selections reveal their future approaches to anti-bias co…

TikTok and other social media platforms have rapidly grown in popularity as a means for teachers to network and share pedagogical information and classroom practices. Classroom management is a particularly important skill for teachers as a support for students’ academic, social, and emotional development and teacher well-being; however, many teachers have underdeveloped skills in this area, highlighting the need for professional development oppor…
Seeding Resilience-Building CROPs
According to United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF), the devastation caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic has elevated the teacher turnover crisis to one of the most harrowing issues facing our society. Stress and burnout among school professionals have reached new highs, resulting in a need to better understand the individual and contextual factors that can ameliorate stress and improve well-being and resilience. Using…
Feasibility of the NCTSN breakthrough parenting curriculum
It Flows Both Ways
This is a critical moment of extraordinary rates of teacher burnout exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to implement effective intervention and policy, we must identify the drivers of educators’ stress and factors that may act as protective mechanisms. The complexity of this problem calls for a social–ecological approach. In this study, we investigated the impact of individual, organizational, and relational factors on educators’ pande…
