Direct linkPrice, Nancy A.; Wells, Jennifer G.; Granshaw, Frank D. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2022
A learning experience designed for the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) should integrate the Science & Engineering Practices and Crosscutting Concepts (CCCs) with science content. Such "three-dimensional learning" engages students in the epistemic components of the scientific process. Whether the Practices and CCCs are used…

Gonzales, Jennifer A.; Ritter, Kenley B.; Shelton, Ryann N. – School Science and Mathematics, 2022
Research favors active learning through STEM disciplines to improve understanding; however, opportunities for well-aligned STEM integration presented challenges for Northside Independent School District (NISD). First, state standards did not align across contents and grade levels. Second, the standardized tests created a lack of flexibility to…

Lowell, Benjamin R.; Cherbow, Kevin; McNeill, Katherine L. – Science Education, 2021
The adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) requires many teachers to drastically change their classroom instruction. Curricular materials offer a tool to support this transition, but there are questions about the degree to which available curricula truly reflect the shifts required by the NGSS. This study proposes a framework of…

Bielik, Tom; Finnie, Kellie; Peek-Brown, Deborah; Klager, Chris; Touitou, Israel; Schneider, Barbara; Krajcik, Joseph – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2022
To meet the demands of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), teachers need to reconsider their current instructional practices, shifting from learning about scientific ideas to making sense of phenomena and solving problems using three-dimensional learning components. Project-Based Learning (PBL) provides a framework for creating…

Strimel, Greg; Huffman, Tanner; Grubbs, Michael; Kim, Eunhye; Gurganus, Jamie – Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research, 2020
Engineering education has increasingly become an area of interest at the P-12 level, yet attempts to align engineering knowledge, skills, and habits to existing elementary and secondary educational programming have been parochial in nature (e.g., for a specific context, grade, or initiative). Consequently, a need exists to establish a coherent…

Cindy Capitolin Laurent – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study aimed to investigate and improve the college readiness of students in an innercity public school. Recent statistics on college completion in a prominent city in the U.S. reveal that only 52% of students from inner-city schools graduate with college degrees within six years. This is quite worrisome, considering that 71% of jobs in that…

Esch, R. Keith; Burbacher, Emily; Dodrill, Eric; Fussell, Kristen DeVanna; Magdich, Mitchell; Norris, Heather; Midden, W. Robert – Horizon Research, Inc., 2020
Citizen science (CS) projects have become widespread in part because they expand the capacity of professional scientists, enabling research that would otherwise be impracticable or unaffordable. In addition to the research benefits, educators and scientists have seen educational value in CS because it can incorporate students into real-world…
