The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of argumentation, during the hypothetico-deductive reasoning (HDR) process in the problem-based learning (PBL) approach, on nursing students' achievements and to determine the argumentation levels in the biochemistry course on the topic of endocrine and nervous systems. The participants…

The purpose of this research is to determine the conceptual understanding of pre-service science teachers about "Colligative properties", which are aimed to be taught within the scope of Chemistry-II course, within the framework of the argumentation-supported problem based learning (AS-PBL) method. The study, in which 24 pre-service…

The aim of this study is to increase pre-service science teachers' awareness of climate change through online argumentation activities. The study prepared pre-service training content based on online argumentation to increase climate change awareness. For the training, activities were prepared based on online argumentation for the sub-dimensions…

Science teaching is one of the subjects that has been actively affected by Augmented Reality (AR) technology worldwide. Although the use of AR in science courses is increasing, the effective use of AR still needs improvement. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of augmented reality-based argumentation activities in 7th grade…

This study examines the types of arguments and supporting reasons of science teachers on socioscientific issues. The case study was used in this study conducted with seven science teachers. Data were collected through three scenarios developed about vaccination, curfew and distance education in the context of COVID-19. Within the context of the…

In the study, the effect of Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) activities carried out within the scope of argumentation-supported learning method on the detection of the conceptual understandings of the pre-service science teachers about "Solutions: Dissolving-Melting" was examined. Based on this main purpose, a case study was applied in the…

This study was conducted to examine the structural relationships among pre-service science teachers' scientific epistemological beliefs, self-regulation skills, and their disposition towards participating in argumentation. For this purpose, structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied in the study in which 229 pre-service science teachers…

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a cooperative argumentation model on the listening and inquiry skills and argument level of pre-service science teachers (PSTs). A mixed method was used. The sample consisted of 54 pre-service science teachers. Two experimental groups were studied and the study was conducted in the Special…

The aim of this mixed-method study is twofold: The first aim concerns pre-service science teachers' (PSTs) perceptions about what makes an argument persuasive. At the first phase, an in-depth analysis of their views about persuasiveness of different quality level arguments in three socioscientific contexts which were global climate change, base…

This study was conducted to examine the effects of practices based on the Argumentation-Based Enquiry (ABI) approach on the critical thinking of science teacher candidates in a course named the General Chemistry Laboratory course. The General Chemistry Laboratory course was taught through the ABI approach for 12 weeks, and 94 teacher candidates…

The purpose of this study is to determine pre-service science teachers' (PSTs') argument qualities in the process of discussing some SSIs on Twitter. In this respect, firstly, sources that PSTs use to reach information and ranking of these sources as they access information were taken. The study is designed as a case study and the participants…

When technology is employed challenges increase in learning environments. Kim et al. ("Sci Educ" 91(6):1010-1030, 2007) presented a pedagogical framework that provides a valid technology-enhanced learning environment. The purpose of the present design-based study was to investigate the micro context dimension of this framework and to…

The aim of this study is to investigate experiences of groups with different success levels during small group discussions in argumentation applications. In the study, case study was based as one of qualitative research patterns. In this line, a success test including mechanical subjects comprising multiple-choice and open-ended questions was…

It was aimed to investigate the effect of teacher candidates' self-efficacy towards science teaching and technological pedagogical content knowledge on their self-confidence. In this study, pre-experimental design method was used. Thirty prospective science teachers from different universities participated. The trainings were given by faculty…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the argumentation-based science learning approach on students' academic achievements and examine student views about use of this approach in social studies. We used a mixed methods research design to document changes as a result of an argumentation-based science learning approach…
