Despite the abundance of literature discussing Kuhnian views, it is rare to find studies that comprehensively compare the arguments of Kuhnian supporters and skeptics. This study aims to fill the gap by providing a comparative review and synthesis between the two groups of views using the systematic literature review (SLR) analysis technique. The…

Fakhriyah, Fina; Rusilowati, Ani; Wiyanto; Susilaningsih, Endang – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2021
The learning approach is an important component of education. ADI learning model allows learners to argue actively based on the surrounding observable phenomena in the laboratory. This research aims to review national diversities that represent or contribute to studies by applying the ADI learning model and the research type varieties and…

In this article, we propose an analysis of the state of, and trends in, the field of conceptual change research in science education through the lens of its models. Using a quantitative approach, we reviewed all conceptual change articles (n = 245) published in five major journals in the field of science education in search of the support that…

Çalik, Muammer; Wiyarsi, Antuni – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2021
Although chemistry-focused socio-scientific issues support the 'relevance' model of chemistry education, the related literature has lacked any systematic review handling them together. For this reason, this research aimed to thematically synthesize the research papers on chemistry-focused socio scientific issues (SSI) from 2008 to 2020 and…

Permatasari, Margaretha Bhrizda; Rahayu, Sri; Dasna, I Wayan – Journal of Science Learning, 2022
The abstractness of the chemistry concept can be understood easily through chemistry learning using multiple representations. This article used the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to review eleven articles published from 2012 to 2021 and focused on chemistry learning using various representations. The articles are systematically obtained…

Schoenherr, Jordan Richard; Williams-Jones, Bryn – Canadian Journal of Higher Education, 2016
Academic institutions and research funders have in the last decade devoted considerable effort to developing policies to support academic integrity and prevent misconduct. In this study, we consider the extent to which various initiatives of Canadian federal and provincial (Québec) funders have affected the development of institutional research…

Smith, P. Sean; Plumley, Courtney L. – Horizon Research, Inc., 2016
This report summarizes the findings of a systematic review of research literature on teaching about the particle nature of matter to upper elementary students. The report is a product of the Knowledge Assets to Support the Science Instruction of Elementary Teachers (ASSET) project. ASSET is exploring a method for collecting and synthesizing…

Forjan, Matej; Sliško, Josip – European Journal of Physics Education, 2014
This article presents the results of an analysis of three Slovenian textbooks for high school physics, from the point of view of simplifications and idealizations in the field of mechanics. In modeling of physical systems, making simplifications and idealizations is important, since one ignores minor effects and focuses on the most important…

Campbell, Todd; Oh, Phil Seok; Maughn, Milo; Kiriazis, Nick; Zuwallack, Rebecca – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2015
The current review examined modeling literature in top science education journals to better understand the pedagogical functions of modeling instruction reported over the last decade. Additionally, the review sought to understand the extent to which different modeling pedagogies were employed, the discursive acts that were identified as important,…

de Berg, Kevin C. – Science & Education, 2008
Eight chemistry textbooks written from 1758 to 1891 have been analyzed for the way they present the chemistry of the oxides of tin. This analysis gives insight into the foundation of a number of chemical ideas such as nomenclature and composition used in modern chemistry. Four major preparation techniques for the production of tin oxides emerge…

Peer reviewedFranco, Creso; de Barros, Henrique Lins; Colinvaux, Dominique; Krapas, Sonia; Queiroz, Gloria; Alves, Fatima – International Journal of Science Education, 1999
Argues for the need for theoretical work on mental models in the field of science education. Considers relationships between both models and theories, and mental models and conceptions in order to improve the notions of "model" and "mental model" used in the literature. Contains 20 references. (Author/WRM)

Peer reviewedKlein, Douglas J.; Trinajstic, Nenad – Journal of Chemical Education, 1990
Discussed is the importance of valence bond theory on the quantum-mechanical theory of chemical structure and the nature of the chemical bond. Described briefly are early VB theory, development of VB theory, modern versions, solid-state applications, models, treatment in textbooks, and flaws in criticisms of valence bond theory. (KR)

Peer reviewedHarrison, Allan G.; Treagust, David F. – School Science and Mathematics, 1998
Describes a conceptual typology of models to help teachers select models appropriate to the cognitive ability of their students. Presents an example of how the systematic presentation of analogical models enhanced an 11th-grade chemistry student's understanding of atoms and molecules. Makes recommendations for teachers. Contains 28 references.…
