Carolyn Hoessler; Ryan Banow; Harold Bull – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
To further teaching and learning, there has been a push to engage faculty to pursue research on teaching. With the recognition that science research often is done by teams, we sought to create a research-cluster approach to support faculty engaging in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). This article describes a faculty-focused process…

Phi Nguyen; Charles Munter – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2024
Teacher educators globally have argued that developing coherent programs can combat the fragmentation that often characterizes teacher education and better support teacher learning. Yet, there is little research on coherence in mathematics teacher education, especially from the perspectives of preservice teachers. To that end, in this article, we…

Ossa Cornejo, Carlos; Palma Luengo, Maritza; Díaz Mujica, Alejandro; Páez Rovira, Darío – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2022
Introduction: Critical thinking is a highly-valued skill in higher education, even though there are few studies that demonstrate its effectiveness on scientific skills of pedagogy students. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of a critical thinking program (PENCRIT-RC) on inquiry and probabilistic reasoning skills in pedagogy…

Jose Celso S. Perez Jr.; Monera A. Salic-Hairulla; Joy R. Magsayo; Edna B. Nabua; Sotero O. Malayao Jr. – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2025
Education plays a vital role in addressing the current environmental crisis. Integrating ecoliteracy in teacher preparation programs empowers colleges and universities to promote a healthy biosphere by producing pre-service teachers (PSTs) who can develop an ecoliterate student citizenry. Connectedly, ecoliteracy must be taught to PSTs through…

Herdiyana Fitriani; Muhammad Asy'ari; Siti Zubaidah; Susriyati Mahanal; Taufik Samsuri – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2024
Critical analysis (CA) skills are crucial in higher education and should be incorporated into the curriculum at that level. The unique characteristics of abstract biology materials and the involvement of prospective Biology teachers (PBTs) in scientific investigation activities make them highly relevant for teaching CA skills. Inquiry activities…

Lauri J. Partanen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
In this action research study, I propose a guided inquiry alternative to the traditional physical chemistry laboratory module where the equilibrium constant of acetic acid is determined conductometrically. I complement the guided inquiry structure with a 360° feedback support framework for the preparation and assessment of a laboratory report. The…
