Niepotter, Paige; Gopalan, Chaya – HAPS Educator, 2019
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to many psychiatric disorders. Ketogenic diets have been shown to reduce mitochondrial dysfunction and thus may be helpful to patients who suffer from these disorders. In this article, we review the effects of a ketogenic diet in patients with psychiatric disorders such as autism, depression, anxiety, and…

Kaya, Ebru; Erduran, Sibel – Science & Education, 2016
The inclusion of Nature of Science (NOS) in the science curriculum has been advocated around the world for several decades. One way of defining NOS is related to the family resemblance approach (FRA). The family resemblance idea was originally described by Wittgenstein. Subsequently, philosophers and educators have applied Wittgenstein's idea to…

Buckingham, Jennifer; Wheldall, Kevin; Beaman-Wheldall, Robyn – Australian Journal of Education, 2013
Socioeconomic status at the individual- and school-level are positively related to literacy achievement in all English-speaking countries. The components of socioeconomic status -- income, parent education and parent occupation -- are each statistically significant predictors of school literacy achievement but they are primarily a proxy for more…

Sigafoos, Jeff; Green, Vanessa A.; Schlosser, Ralf; O'eilly, Mark F.; Lancioni, Giulio E.; Rispoli, Mandy; Lang, Russell – Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 2009
We reviewed communication intervention studies involving people with Rett syndrome. Systematic searches of five electronic databases, selected journals, and reference lists identified nine studies meeting the inclusion criteria. These studies were evaluated in terms of: (a) participant characteristics, (b) target skills, (c) procedures, (d) main…

Schopler, Eric – 1990
This paper reviews the evidence for various biological mechanisms in autism and discusses implications of these mechanisms for treatment. A brief introductory discussion examines the history of research on autism. Then the literature is reviewed and treatment implications are drawn for the following biological mechanisms: genetic disorders;…

Farmaki, Vassiliki; Klaudatos, Nikos; Paschos, Theodorus – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2004
The integration of History in the educational practice can lead to the development of a series of activities exploiting genetic "moments" of the history of Mathematics. Utilizing genetic ideas that developed during the 14th century (Merton College, N. Oresme), activities are developed and mathematical models for solving problems related to uniform…

Benton, Arthur L., Ed.; Pearl, David, Ed. – 1978
The 22 chapters of this book provide an analysis of current thinking about the condition known as "developmental dyslexia,""specific reading disability," or "specific reading retardation." Leading investigators were commissioned to critically examine the scientific literature on dyslexia in various research areas and to write comprehensive…

Kiboss, Joel K.; Ndirangu, Mwangi; Wekesa, Eric W. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2004
Biology knowledge and understanding is important not only for the conversion of the loftiest dreams into reality for a better life of individuals but also for preparing secondary pupils for such fields as agriculture, medicine, biotechnology, and genetic engineering. But a recent study has revealed that many aspects of school science (biology…

Blosser, Patricia E., Ed.; Helgeson, Stanley L., Ed. – Investigations in Science Education, 1986
Abstracts and abstractors' critiques of six science education research studies and two responses to critiques are presented in this journal issue. Each of the studies addressed some aspect of instruction. Areas investigated include: (1) the effects of teacher-demonstration as compared to those of self-paced instruction on student achievement; (2)…
