Baran, Medine; Maskan, Abdulkadir; Baran, Mukadder – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2015
The purpose of this study was to determine teachers' reasons for choosing the profession of teaching and their level of job satisfaction and to investigate the effects of certain variables on their job satisfaction. The research data were collected via a questionnaire form to determine the demographic backgrounds of the participants and a Job…

Glaister, P. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2005
Three techniques for determining a straight line fit to data are compared. The methods are applied to a range of datasets containing one or more outliers, and to a specific example from the field of chemistry. For the method which is the most resistant to the presence of outliers, a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, as well as two Matlab routines, are…

Preece, Peter F. W.; Postlethwaite, Keith C.; Skinner, Nigel C.; Simpson, Keith A. – International Journal of Science Education, 2004
In an investigation of the learning of science content knowledge in a postgraduate preservice education course, it was found that the 'failure of further learning' effect can be overcome, at least in part, in well-designed courses. Nevertheless the persistence of certain misconceptions among some students did indicate the partial salience of the…

Neuschatz, Michael; McFarling, Mark – Physics Teacher, 2000
Describes a study of the professional qualifications of high school physics teachers conducted by the American Institute of Physics (AIP). Concludes that high school physics teachers are better trained than they are given credit for, and that instances of utterly unqualified instructors are rare. (WRM)

Eichinger, John – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1992
Reports a study analyzing the perceptions of 45 college science majors regarding their formal precollege science experiences. Results suggest that college science majors generally hold science in higher regard than do noncollegiate adults; preferred science teachers who were enthusiastic, knowledgeable, friendly, inspirational, and fun; and…

Becker, Henry Jay – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1991
Data collected for the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (1989) within U.S. secondary schools revealed that computer usage more than doubled from 1985. Discussed are the regular and systematic uses of computers in the classroom and laboratories, the types of software used, and the goals for teachers using…
