Leung, Jessica Shuk Ching; Cheng, Maurice Man Wai – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
We advance the understanding of how student emotions relate to their learning of socioscientific issues (SSI). Studies have tended to examine how students' positive and negative emotions about an issue contribute to their learning. However, this approach overlooks the fact that students may have different emotions about different objects (i.e.,…

Vivante, Irit; Vedder-Weiss, Dana – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Research indicates many professional development (PD) programs fail to promote a significant change in science teaching, despite the resources invested in them. While previous research addresses this problem through aspects of policy making, design, and teachers' identity, we suggest a focus on teachers' engagement in learning during PD sessions.…

Ella Yonai; Ron Blonder – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2025
This study explored the impact of authentic out-of-school learning on students' beliefs about their science learning efficacy and career aspirations. The learning activity, designed following an authentic learning framework, was led by research scientists. We examined how students' emotions, induced in an authentic scientific activity, mediated…

Lihua Tan; Fu Chen; Bing Wei – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Through the lens of science capital, this research aims to detect the key factors and their main effects in identifying students with science-related career expectations. A machine learning approach (i.e., random forest) was employed to analyze a dataset of 519,334 15-year-old students from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA)…

Ibourk, Amal; Hughes, Roxanne; Mathis, Clausell – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) identity has become a popular lens in science education research. However, few studies have looked at how using the interpersonal, structural, cultural, and disciplinary domains of power sheds light on how women of color differently navigate the various cultures of formal and informal…
