  • Relating differently: Assessing and comparing associations between social and affective adjustment factors in immigrant and non‐immigrant students
    Publication . Campos, Mafalda L.; Peixoto, Francisco
    Immigrant students face additional challenges in educational settings. Current research lacks understanding of the associations between social aspects of students' school life, their impact on adjustment and how these differ based on immigrant status. We argue that merely noting about the existence of differences is insufficient, and there is a need to better comprehend the complexity of such inequalities.This study aimed at exploring associations among reported bullying, friend and teacher relationships, achievement motivation, well‐being and sense of school belonging, and comparing them among native and non‐native students.We used structural equation modelling to test a theoretically proposed model. Multi‐group analysis compared associations between native and non‐native students, with additional analyses exploring differences between first‐ and second‐generation students. Immigrant status is linked to higher reports of bullying and poorer friendship quality. First‐generation (1G) immigrants are particularly affected in their friendships compared to second‐generation (2G) peers. The association between socioeconomic status (SES) and bullying was negative and significant in the native sample, but positive and slightly significant for non‐natives. The positive relationship between SES and the quality of friendships was only significant for the 1G sample, but not for 2G students. Finally, the negative association between bullying and well‐being was only significant for 2G students, but not for 1G immigrants. These and other results are presented and discussed.Natives, 1G and 2G immigrant students show some differences in the way their social and affective school factors relate to one another. Implications, limitations and future directions are discussed.

  • Knowledge to teach mathematics with technology: The global model
    Publication . Rocha, Helena
    The teacher’s central role in technology integration and the chal-lenges of that integration emphasise the need for a deeper under-standing about the teacher’s knowledge required to teach with tech-nology. Based on previous work and a systematic literature review,we identified three knowledge models often used: TPACK, KTMT andPTK. The goal of this paper is to discuss the similarities and differencesbetween these knowledge models and present a Global Model. ThisGlobal Model is not a new model. On the contrary, it is a model devel-oped based on the existing models and intending to integrate ina single model the knowledge domains considered in the differentexisting models. The Global Model highlights the common domainsconsidered and the common roots for the three models, but it alsomakes explicit the differences, mostly related to the understandingof the domains or even to the domains considered, and also to theway how the knowledge’s development is conceived
