A Survival Analysis of a Language-Infused Science Inquiry Intervention for English Learners
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Garza, Tiberio; Huerta, Margarita; Tong, Fuhui; Lara-Alecio, Rafael; Irby, Beverly J. – Journal of Educational Research, 2019
In this study, the authors examined the survivability, or persistence over time, of overall science instruction for English learners (ELs) in treatment and control classrooms within a field-based, quasi-experimental grant-funded project in the United States. The project's goal was to increase ELs' science and language achievement through…

Hsiao, Hsien-Sheng; Lin, Yi-Wei; Lin, Kuen-Yi; Lin, Chien-Yu; Chen, Jheng-Han; Chen, Jyun-Chen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
This study used robot-based practices to develop an activity that incorporated the 6E model. The sixth-grade students learned interdisciplinary knowledge about how to use Arduino electronic components, microcontrollers, and hands-on tools to make a "Crab Robot." In addition, the students learned how to use Scratch programming language to…

Determining the Mechanics of Classroom Discourse in Vygotskian Sense: Teacher Discursive Moves Reconsidered
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Soysal, Y. – Research in Science Education, 2020
This study identified the accumulated distributions of the enacted discursive moves during classroom inquiry to demonstrate how a science teacher reacted to the existence of two mutually exclusive social languages: everyday social languages of the students vs. social languages of school science. The participants were a science teacher and 26…
