Direct linkRodriguez, Laura; Campbell, Todd; Volin, John C.; Moss, David M. – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2023
Our multiple case study addresses the lack of opportunities many people have developing positive identification with STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) fields by investigating STEM identity authoring in three intergenerational collaborative partnerships. Adult and teen partners participated in two-day workshops learning conservation…

Towsey, Paula M.; Macdonald, Carol A. – Mind, Culture, and Activity, 2009
In 2007 a South African study examined new concept formation from early childhood to adulthood (N = 60, 3 to 76 years old) using the Vygotsky/Sakharov Blocks procedure (also known as the functional method of double stimulation for the study of concept formation) to establish whether contemporary adults and children produced the same or similar…
