Li, Mingyang; Donnelly-Hermosillo, Dermot Francis; Click, Jennifer – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2022
Numerous studies illustrate the value of simulations or project-based learning approaches to enhance the learning of science. Simulations can help students connect across macroscopic, microscopic, and symbolic representations of scientific phenomena, while project-based learning can provide a meaningful narrative and activities for students to…

Khishfe, Rola – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
The study investigated the influence of a connected learning approach for explicit nature of science (NOS) instruction and explicit argumentation instruction, in comparison with a non-connected approach, on students' NOS conceptions and argumentation skills. Participants comprised 42 students enrolled in two sections of grade 10 that were randomly…

Stammes, Hanna; Henze, Ineke; Barendsen, Erik; de Vries, Marc – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Design-based learning is considered a powerful way to help students apply and develop understanding of science concepts, but research has shown that the success of this approach is not a given. Examining students' understanding of science concepts in various design-based learning contexts has thus continued to be an important field of research. To…

Bossé, Michael J.; Bayaga, Anass; Fountain, Catherine; Sevier, John – International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning, 2021
This study applies a framework for mathematical cognition and learning (Bossé, et al., 2018a; Bossé et al., 2019; Bossé et al., 2018b) to examples of students' comprehension of geometric concepts related to angles. This framework utilizes key concepts from second language acquisition (SLA) to elucidate processes involved in mathematical learning.…

Amornrat Saithongdee; Tanita Sirirat – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Board games have been used as instructional tools for a wide array of subjects from primary to secondary levels. The present study aimed to develop and apply a novel board game for the instruction of content relating to mole conversion through dimensional analysis in a grade10 class of 29 students. To assess their knowledge prior to and after…

Duarte, José; Robert Nogueira, João – Education Sciences, 2019
This paper presents protests from academically successful students who privately conveyed to the researchers their feelings of personal discontent with schools. The criterion to select this "sample" was that these students, dissatisfied with school but having good marks, would reveal what others, academically less successful, could not…

Zeleke B. Mekonnen; Destaw D. Yehualaw; Solomon M. Mengistie; Baye S. Mersha – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2024
While computer animations have the potential to assist learners in understanding difficult concepts and eliminating misconceptions, studies supporting this claim are scarce. This study investigated how the 7E instructional model integrated with computer animations affected students' conceptual understanding and misconceptions about food making and…

Athavan Alias Anand Selvam; Subhadip Senapati – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Research-based pedagogy was implemented to enhance high school students' learning outcomes in basic organic chemistry. Flipped learning and structured peer work have been offered to grade 10 students(N = 12) during the course with appropriate classroom facilities, supervised by two facilitators. The preclass and in-class activities were designed…
