Purpose: It has been suggested by the education stakeholders to make different applications about the number of courses, their duration and their content in order to provide quality education without risking the health status during the Covid-19 epidemic process. The aim of this study is to examine the opinions of teachers about the change of courses in primary schools in terms of different variables during the pandemic process.
Method: The study was designed according to the qualitative research approach, and the data obtained were interpreted with descriptive and content analysis. 23 classroom teachers participated in the research conducted in September 2021. The sample was determined according to the easily accessible situation sampling.
Findings: In the research, it was stated that the number of courses should be reduced and the course types should be divided into themes and handled according to the region's characteristics and classroom conditions. In addition to academic, artistic, and psychomotor courses, it was stated that there should be social and psychological course practices.
Implications for Research and Practice: Within the scope of the research, 5 courses in primary schools, reduction of course durations to 30 minutes, academic, artistic, psychomotor, social and so on. specified in the themes. In the research, it has been suggested to combine the contents of the courses that are close to each other by emphasizing the reduction of the number of courses and their duration.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the benefits of online academic collaborations between universities known as COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning). These activities also contribute to the sustainable development goals (SDGs) especially objective 4 “Education” because education provides people with the necessary tools to get out of poverty and have a better future and objective 17 “alliances” linked to the collaborations between university and organizations. It is important to highlight the relevance to get in touch with real business and organizations to incentivize students to offer real solutions to problems. The project is a case study centered around the NGO Reinserta to which the students had to participate and develop a business strategic proposal related with consumers’ behavior.
Method: The study is based on qualitative analysis conducted during one semester (August to December, 2021). The qualitative analysis was used interviews and observation techniques were applied to students from the subject of consumer behavior from two universities located in Mexico (27 students) and Spain (31 students).
Findings: The results show that through COIL activities, students have an approach to companies and their problems based in real business world operations. Working in international teams, they need to apply theory into practice, learn to work with different cultures and improve soft skills through teamwork. This study highlights the use of different tools and technological platforms to communicate between teams and to be able develop a project that will later be implemented by the company.
Implications for Research and Practice: The use of COIL in education can improve learning and immerse students in a context that the business and organizations are demanding. There is a market need for more global professionals that comprehend and incorporate the usage of technological tools and are able to deal with real companies and solve real business life problems.

Purpose: College Credit Plus (CCP) is a program for high school students to take college courses while still in high school. The program can be a tremendous advantage to any student. Despite the incentives, CCP enrollment at a Midwest urban dropout recovery school is low and has been so for a decade. The purpose of this study is to use a qualitative approach to determine common root causes for the low enrollment, as well as generate possible solutions.
Method: This study was designed in 2021. This study utilized qualitative methods for action research. Because the study is in student interest, it is vital that student voices remain the focal point. I suspect that one of the underlying causes may be internalization of outward negative, racialized student expectations.
Findings: Current literature details the benefits of CCP enrollment, especially for underrepresented students, as well as the low enrollment of those same students. However, there is a gap in the literature where actual student voices are missing. Without their directly quoted, first-person contributions, the data is incomplete. Underrepresented students are primary stakeholders as they are missing out on educational opportunities that could alter their quality of life significantly.
Implications for Research and Practice: These findings are useful for teachers, school administrators, students, and their families. Further interviews would be beneficial to address the variety in student responses.

Purpose: The purpose of this theoretical paper is to present the two false position algorithms, using simple examples, and to suggest ways, that a teacher, exploiting these algorithms, can use to benefit their students in learning. The methods of false position were inventions of ancient civilizations (Egyptians, Babylonians and Chinese). These trial and error methods exploit errors and solve all the problems which are solved algebraically, through the application of first degree equations.
Proposed Conceptual Argument: The findings of many studies support the introduction of new mathematical ideas and concepts through a relevant historical context. In fact, the triptych “History, Mathematics and Education” are key, didactic and methodological axes, able to improve the daily teaching-learning process in current mathematics classes. One case, with rich historical mathematical background which can be used in schools, is the methodological algorithms of simple false position and double false position.
Implications: Through a relevant suggested project, students can get to know Egyptian, Babylonian, Chinese and Arabic Mathematics, as the algorithms of the false position form an apocalyptic episode of the entire history of Mathematics, covering a 4,000 year time period. Also, students can learn that these methods are responsible for the adoption of the symbol “X” for multiplication and the introduction of the signs “-” and “+” in Mathematics. Moreover, the simple starting points of ideas that support the scientific edifice of Mathematics can be understood. Finally, the study of the ratios and proportions can be some attractive teaching parameters and modules of the project.

Purpose: The first known school concept in history is in Sumerians; the schools aimed to train clerks who would keep the records regarding the administration. Later, schools became cultural centers for many subjects. Reasons such as multiculturalism, rapidly advancing technology, and the opening of new business areas, social and individual competition arose the thought that schools could not fulfill their duties; this thought brought alternative schools to the agenda in the light of needs and deficiencies in countries such as the United States of America, Canada, the Netherlands, and Australia. This study was conducted in order to research Paideia Schools in detail. It was reached, it has been seen that paideia schools as an alternative school have not been examined in detail. With this study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature and to fill the gap in the literature about Paideia Schools.
Method: The research is a qualitative study based on a document analysis. This paper firstly focuses on the establishment, history, philosophy, and purpose of Paideia Schools; secondly it focuses on the lessons, classrooms, and curriculum of Paideia Schools and lastly it focuses on the management, school-environment relationship, financing, and prevalence of Paideia Schools. Findings: Paideia Schools are for all children aged 3-18 and their families. The school system is based on making students think. Students are given information, and they are made to remember and understand the information. "Socratic dialogue" is the method used to get the desired thinking. It is believed that the questions that teachers ask students will improve their understanding, logic, reasoning, and deep-thinking skills.
Implications for Research and Practice: In the upcoming studies, researchers can focus on other alternative schools such as Waldorf Schools, Charter Schools, Magnet Schools, Small Schools, Virtual Schools, Summer Hill Schools, Sudbury Valley Schools, Cyber Schools, Free Gestalt and Democratic Schools in detail. Researchers can also analyze alternative schools comparatively.
