Lacey Sharman; Amanda Chee-Awai; Tamra Legron-Rodriguez – Journal of Chemical Education, 2025
A flipped classroom is an instructional method whereby students learn course content prior to attending class through various instructional resources. Class time is focused on problem-solving and active learning activities. Flipping the classroom allows instructors to utilize active learning strategies during class time to improve student…

Wael Musalamani; Ruhizan Mohammad Yasin; Kamisah Osman – SAGE Open, 2025
This qualitative phenomenological study aimed to explore middle school students' perceptions of using the school-based cooperative problem-based learning (SB-CPBL) approach in learning science. The study examined how SB-CPBL differs from the students' usual learning, how the new approach affects their learning process and the main challenges of…

Hanna Järvenoja; Tiina Törmänen; Marjo Turunen; Emma Lehtoaho – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Collaborative learning offers benefits, but its potential is often undermined by motivational challenges. This study uses the situated expectancy-value theory to explore how students' expectancies for success relate to group-level regulation of learning during collaborative interactions. The study considers success expectancies both as…

Gyeong-Geon Lee; Seonyeong Mun; Myeong-Kyeong Shin; Xiaoming Zhai – Science & Education, 2025
This research aims to demonstrate that artificial intelligence (AI) can function not only as a tool for learning, but also as an intelligent agent with which humans can engage in collaborative learning (CL) to change epistemic practices in science classrooms. We adopted a design and development research approach, following the Analysis, Design,…

R. A. Paggi; M. C. Ferrari; M. Cerletti; M. I. Giménez; T. S. Schwarz; A. Marchfelder; R. E. De Castro – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2025
Perturbation of gene expression using RNA interference (RNAi) or CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) is a useful strategy to explore the function of essential genes. In the archaeon "Haloferax volcanii," the CRISPR-Cas system has been adapted as a CRISPRi tool to silence the expression of specific genes. We developed a laboratory class (LC) to…

Najeh Rajeh Alsalhi; Abdellateef Abdelhafez Alqawasmi; Mahmoud Abdellateef Habboush; Sharif Salim Al-yateem – Educational Process: International Journal, 2025
Background/purpose: This study aimed to investigate the impact of pedagogical variation on student academic achievement in science among basic school students in Jordan. Specifically, it compared the Traditional Method (TM) and the Homogenous Groups Method (HGM) to address the need for improved teaching strategies that cater to students' learning…

Ying-Chih Chen – International Journal of Science Education, 2025
In a traditional lecturing environment, students possess limited agency in accepting or rejecting information provided by teachers. A higher level of student agency involves opportunities and actively identifying uncertainties and collaborating with peers to deepen understanding within the classroom community. Teachers play a crucial role in…

Laura C. Giojalas; Leticia García Romano; Giuliana Lingua; Rocío B. Martín – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2025
Molecular Cell Biology (MCB) should be taught according to the scientific practices, avoiding cumulative and memory knowledge construction, but favoring scientific thinking. A way to achieve this goal is to apply activities involving scientific news, which construct knowledge through significant learning and the development of critical thinking.…

Jessica D. Young; Betül Demirdögen; Christopher F. Bauer; Scott E. Lewis – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2025
Peer-led team learning is a socially mediated pedagogy where trained peer leaders, students who have completed a course, return to lead students in groups within a targeted course. The effect of peer-led team learning to improve student success in chemistry has been extensively documented but it is unclear if it is just as effective at…

Nicole E. States; Carina Bruno; Karsten Martin; Renée S. Cole – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2025
Many large introductory classes are taught in stadium-style classrooms, which makes group work more difficult due to the room layout and immobile seating. These classrooms may create challenges for an instructor who wants to monitor student engagement because the layouts make it difficult to interact with the students as they work. Student…

Neni Murniati; Y. Yennita; Dinda Triski Oktaria Ha; R. Riyanto – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2025
Plant morphology courses develop students' understanding of plant structures and identification skills through mini-research activities. Effective species identification requires a literature review and the ability to find, evaluate, and use relevant information. This qualitative study examines students' information literacy skills in completing…

Jesse D. Moreira-Bouchard; Lisa M. Roberts – Advances in Physiology Education, 2025
Testing is a highly important tool, used ubiquitously in academia, to assess student comprehension and understanding of material. Unfortunately, the emphasis placed on test grades has resulted in a modern epidemic of test-related anxiety, which can have adverse health effects on students. Over time, novel testing strategies have been developed to…

Jale Ercan-Dursun; Jee Kyung Suh; Brian Hand; Gavin Fulmer; Krystal Flantroy – Elementary School Journal, 2025
This multiple case study explored how elementary school teachers use technology, especially for generative science learning, and why they use it the way they do. Data were collected through qualitative methods (interviews and observations) from seven elementary school teachers. The results showed that the participant teachers used technology…

Alex K. Manda – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2025
This study explores the relationship between the self-confidence and content knowledge of undergraduate students in a large enrollment geoscience course following an active-learning think-pair-share (TPS) activity, and whether high confidence necessarily leads to overconfidence. We used a pre-experimental, one group pre-test -- post-test design,…
