Direct linkReyna, Jorge; Hanham, Jose; Vlachopoulos, Panos; Meier, Peter – Research in Science Education, 2021
This study explored the self-regulation strategies and learning experiences of undergraduate science students completing Learner-Generated Digital Media (LGDM) assignments that had been implemented using a theory-driven, systematic approach. The rationale for using LGDM in science education is to facilitate student learning of complex scientific…

Peer reviewedAubusson, Peter; Fogwill, Stephen; Perkovic, Linda; Barr, Rajender – Research in Science Education, 1997
Results of this study suggest that simulation-role-play allows students to demonstrate their understanding, explore their views, and develop deeper understanding of phenomena. The technique was especially beneficial to students who prefer learning kinesthetically. Suggests a strategy for using analogical analysis in simulation-role-play. Contains…

Peer reviewedAnderson, David; Lucas, Keith B. – Research in Science Education, 1997
Year Eight students that underwent novelty-reducing pre-orientation to the physical environment of an interactive science museum and had prior experience visiting the museum learned more than their counterparts. Those exhibits most frequently recalled shared a combination of characteristics such as large physical size, prominence in the exhibit…

Peer reviewedThomas, Gregory P. – Research in Science Education, 1999
Describes a teacher-researcher's investigation into barriers to student adoption of an alternative referent for learning and its consequential learning strategies in an 11th-grade chemistry class. Suggests that various contextual factors influenced students' willingness to adopt the alternative referent, and that students' beliefs, trust of the…
