Summary: The study found that the teacher adopted a collaborative approach in his class, which involved group writing and revising in response to detailed teacher feedback. Through this collaborative approach, students were able to conduct a wide range of revision operations in their writing. The majority of students supported this collaborative approach because it effectively tapped into multiple dimensions of student engagement, increasing active behavioral engagement, promoting positive affective engagement, and encouraging deep cognitive engagement in the writing and revision process.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between self-worth, positive teacher-student relationships, and student engagement in rural Chinese middle-school students. The findings showed significant correlations between all three variables, with teacher-student relationships having the strongest impact on student engagement. The study also revealed that self-worth partially mediated this relationship and served as a moderator, with students with lower self-worth relying more on positive teacher-student relationships to enhance their engagement.

Summary: This critical narrative review explores the pedagogies used by PE teachers and PETE educators during the COVID-19 pandemic, examining them through the lens of bell hooks' engaged pedagogy. A total of 86 articles were reviewed, with 38 articles meeting the inclusion criteria for data extraction. The study utilized both inductive and deductive methods of data analysis. The findings reveal a lack of evidence supporting the adoption of engaged pedagogy in PE and PETE during COVID-19, with a focus on day-to-day survival rather than transformative and meaningful learning. The review highlights the need for PE teachers and PETE educators to develop equitable, inclusive, and empathetic classroom spaces.

Summary: This paper contributes to youth participatory action research (YPAR) by using bell hooks' engaged pedagogy to illustrate the process of co-designing a program for transition beyond secondary school. Engaged pedagogy combines critical consciousness and radical wholeness to foster a learning community. The research findings show that YPAR, informed by engaged pedagogy, raised critical consciousness and allowed for the demonstration of radical wholeness, leading to a more holistic approach in education.

Summary: Guided by bell hooks' concept of 'radical openness', this study explores the challenges faced by multi-party facilitation teams in youth participatory action research (YPAR) and how these challenges were overcome through critical reflection and dialogue. The study found that radical openness enabled the team to recognize and address biases, negotiate authenticity and accountability, and deepen their consciousness and research praxis. The findings suggest that multi-party facilitation teams should embrace radical openness to disrupt hegemonic and colonized views in YPAR.

Summary: Physical education has implemented various pedagogical approaches, including the Teaching Games for Understanding, to improve educational practice. This systematic review focuses on analyzing the use of this approach as a pedagogical tool in physical education classes in Mexico. The results indicate that the Teaching Games for Understanding is an effective and efficient method, predominantly used in developed countries. Combining it with other methods also enhances student participation. This pedagogical tool could be successfully implemented by physical education teachers in Mexico, providing an opportunity for further research and study.

Summary: Considering the high rates of overweight and obesity in Mexican children and adolescents due to a sedentary lifestyle, physical education (PE) classes have become increasingly important. The Federal Government of Mexico has implemented strategies to improve the quality of PE in recent years. A narrative and critical review was conducted on PE in Mexico, analyzing scientific research articles and government proposals to enhance educational quality from different perspectives. The study identified factors influencing PE, including curricular changes, class schedules, recruitment, infrastructure and resources, teacher involvement, teacher training, and research. Although the efforts of the Federal Government to promote quality PE are relevant, the changes have not yet translated into practical improvements in schools. The importance of ongoing research in PE and the role of teacher training universities are emphasized.
