Karma Wangda; Prem Kumar Ghalley; Sangay Chhophel; Bal Krishna Pokhrel; Pema Wangdi – Online Submission, 2024
Teaching Biology in an innovative way has always posed challenges due to its complex terminology and abstract concepts. This study explored the effects of reality pedagogy as an alternative instructional strategy on learner motivation and academic performance in learning biology at the ninth-grade level. To achieve this, a quasi-experimental…

Andreas de Barros – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2023
Explaining the productivity paradox--the phenomenon where an introduction of information and communication technology (ICT) does not lead to improvements in labor productivity--is difficult, as changes in technology often coincide with adjustments to working hours and substitution of labor. I conduct a cluster-randomized trial in India to…

Meng-Jun Chen; Hsiao-Ching She; Pei-Yi Tsai – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Despite national curricula and instructional reforms calling for collaborative problem-solving skills (CPS), however, there is an absence of a theory-laden model showing how to effectively construct CPS for science learning. We therefore developed and validated a simulation-based CPS model that exploits its constructs, sequences, and causal…

Anna Croce – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Ninth-grade students with learning difficulties typically underperform those without learning difficulties, particularly in an integrated geoscience course. Despite the growing demand for STEM careers, science remains challenging to understand and inaccessible to many, especially those with learning difficulties (Vavougios et al., 2016).…

Ayodele Abosede Ogegbo; Umesh Ramnarain; Joseph Krajcik – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Inquiry-Based Teaching Practice (IBTP) is an essential component of science education, and promoting its implementation is at the heart of various reform efforts. Even though science teachers regard IBTP as an essential pedagogical method, they rarely use it for various reasons. This study utilizes Bronfenbrenner's ecological framework to examine…

Cheng, Meng-Fei; Wu, Tsung-Yu; Lin, Shu-Fen – Research in Science Education, 2021
Understanding scientific models and practicing scientific modeling have been emphasized and advocated in science learning. Although teachers have been perceived as shaping their students' understanding of the nature of science, they have been recognized for their lack of understanding of scientific models. This study explores middle school science…
