Guo Su; Jia Sun; Taotao Long; Wenli Chen; Aoxue Mei – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2025
This study explored the impact of "Argumentation-driven inquiry" (ADI) on primary school students' argumentation performance in a blended synchronous learning environment (BSLE). A total of 159 fifth-grade primary school students (79 from an urban school and 80 from a rural school) participated in this quasi-experimental study. Students…

Qianqian Gao; Mingwen Tong; Jia Sun; Chao Zhang; Yuxin Huang; Si Zhang – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2025
The blended synchronous classroom fosters equitable and balanced educational development; however, challenges persist, including low motivation and suboptimal effects on the deep learning of remote students. This study employs a student-centered learning approach and incorporates the process-oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) strategy into…

Lehtinen, Antti; Viiri, Jouni – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2017
Current research indicates that inquiry-based learning should be guided in order to achieve optimal learning outcomes. The need for guidance is even greater when simulations are used because of their high information content and the difficulty of extracting information from them. Previous research on guidance for learning with simulations has…

Deniz, Hasan; Dulger, Mehmet F. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2012
This study examined to what extent inquiry-based instruction supported with real-time graphing technology improves fourth grader's ability to interpret graphs as representations of physical science concepts such as motion and temperature. This study also examined whether there is any difference between inquiry-based instruction supported with…
