Sara Tolbert; Helen Mora; Matiu Ratima; Mel Tainui – set: Research Information for Teachers, 2023
In this article we share how developing and following tikanga was integral to our enactment of mana orite in the local curriculum as we (tangata whenua and tangata Tiriti) collaborated on a Year 7 science unit: Plants, Place, and People. Our initial thinking as we approached this unit had been to look for connections between matauranga Maori, the…

Differential Effectiveness of Alternative Middle-School Science Sequences for Students of Different Ethnicities
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Long, Christopher S.; Fraser, Barry J.; Sinclair, Becky – Learning Environments Research, 2020
For a sample of 367 middle-school students in the USA, learning environment criteria were used to evaluate two alternative science curriculum sequences (generalised/integrated and topic-based) and to investigate the differential effectiveness of the alternative sequences for two different ethnic groups (Caucasian and Hispanic). The six scales used…

Comparison of Alternative Sequencing of Middle-School Science Curriculum: Classroom Learning Environment and Student Attitudes
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Long, Christopher; Fraser, Barry J. – Curriculum and Teaching, 2015
We evaluated the effectiveness of two alternative middle-school science curriculum sequences, namely, a general science model and a topic-specific model (i.e., physics, chemistry, etc.). We also investigated the differential effectiveness of the alternative sequences for two ethnic groups. The sample consisted of 367 grade 8 science students from…

Enhancing Middle School Science Lessons with Playground Activities: A Study of the Impact of Playground Physics
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Friedman, Lawrence B.; Margolin, Jonathan; Swanlund, Andrew; Dhillon, Sonica; Liu, Feng – American Institutes for Research, 2017
Playground Physics is a technology-based application and accompanying curriculum designed by New York Hall of Science (NYSCI) to support middle school students' science engagement and learning of force, energy, and motion. The program includes professional development, the Playground Physics app, and a curriculum aligned with New York State…

"Toward High School Biology": Helping Middle School Students Understand Chemical Reactions and Conservation of Mass in Nonliving and Living Systems
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Herrmann-Abell, Cari F.; Koppal, Mary; Roseman, Jo Ellen – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2016
Modern biology has become increasingly molecular in nature, requiring students to understand basic chemical concepts. Studies show, however, that many students fail to grasp ideas about atom rearrangement and conservation during chemical reactions or the application of these ideas to biological systems. To help provide students with a better…

Selcen Guzey, S.; Harwell, Michael; Moreno, Mario; Peralta, Yadira; Moore, Tamara J. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2017
The new science education reform documents call for integration of engineering into K-12 science classes. Engineering design and practices are new to most science teachers, meaning that implementing effective engineering instruction is likely to be challenging. This quasi-experimental study explored the influence of teacher-developed, engineering…
