Wu, Zhenhua; Huang, Li'an – Research in Science Education, 2023
Early childhood STEM education (EC-STEM) is drawing increasing attention worldwide. Administrators are often regarded as "learning architects" in early childhood settings, and play a critical role in facilitating EC-STEM. However, little is known about how administrators perceive EC-STEM and create opportunities for providing STEM…

Fitzgerald, Michael; Danaia, Lena; McKinnon, David H. – Research in Science Education, 2019
In recent years, calls for the adoption of inquiry-based pedagogies in the science classroom have formed a part of the recommendations for large-scale high school science reforms. However, these pedagogies have been problematic to implement at scale. This research explores the perceptions of 34 positively inclined early-adopter teachers in…
