Introduction
At no time in history has improving the science of teaching and learning been more important than it is today. Yet, after 15 years of focused standards-based reform, improvements in education are modest at best. Gaps in achievement persist between majority group students and both economically disadvantaged and non-Asian minority students. While education in the United States has become a subject of pressing concern, there is excitement as rigorous research has added medical and physiological evidence to the theoretical educational paradigms, providing powerful frameworks for improving the science of teaching and learning. Changes in understanding of what children know and how they learn has been profound in the past several decades. For example, we know that students bring knowledge and experience to school, and these play a critical role in learning and understanding. Students learn by actively engaging in their content area, using authentic learning situations that are real and relevant to their own lives. This requires a range of instructional approaches and reasoning processes that are necessary for development of their content proficiency and overall academic growth and development and applies to all students from Kindergarten through post-secondary education.

Even though current research on teaching and instruction includes the evolution of issues such as curriculum design, standardized testing and assessment from teaching, learning and research perspectives, teachers are challenged to make instruction relevant, rigorous and meaningful in an era when standards-based assessment is used as the directive for accountability and when post-secondary institutions have continually shrinking budgets and resources. The following pages provide a wide range of alternative approaches and multiple perspectives regarding teaching that leads to conceptual change. The content in this volume examines teaching and learning, problem solving, curriculum and context while evaluating new developments, current conflicts and instructional techniques such as service learning, technology and online learning, study abroad programs, effective professional development and intercultural communication. More than a summary of findings, this volume evaluates new developments and examines current controversies and issues that directly affect teaching and instruction. Authors provide current teaching and instructional techniques that lead to deeper student understanding and retention of knowledge as well as the ability to transfer that knowledge to other contexts and situations.

Current paradigms in teaching and learning are designed to engage students in investigations of authentic problems. Therefore, the contributing authors present arguments for those pedagogical tools that have the potential to help people learn, examining difficulties that students and teachers may encounter and describe how technology and other tools can support students and teachers so that motivation and thought are sustained. The science of teaching and learning is a dynamic and fluid one as instruction must be differentiated. New ideas are tried and tested and curriculum continues to change to meet the needs of our highly varied learners who have different aptitudes and abilities, cultures and socio-economic backgrounds. It is an exciting time in education but a challenging time as the demands of our teachers become greater, budgets become smaller to meet greater needs, the social and societal problems of their students become more prevalent and schools are evaluated with narrow indicators of academic performance.

The following 20 articles written by professionals in the field of teaching and learning provide motivation, inspiration and pedagogical tools to help those who are teaching improve their practice, ultimately helping their students move forward as they become successful lifelong learners.
