Collaborative problem-solving

A paper session on collaborative problem-solving, modeling how dialogue, metacognitive regulation, and knowledge building unfold during group work in math and other domains. Studies use methods such as ordered network analysis and Hidden Markov Models, and examine collaboration-competition dynamics and the emergence of flexible strategies.

Teacher Transformation

Four papers on how teachers become agents of transformation through partnerships, mentoring, and boundary crossing. Cases include a composite counterstory of teacher change, science educators reconciling personal beliefs with official scripts, cohort-based research-practice partnerships, and high-coupling encounters bridging maritime and education communities.
