Pinger, Cody W.; Geiger, Morgan K.; Spence, Dana M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Wide accessibility and a broad range of applications have made 3D-printers a commonplace tool in the science community. From tier-one research institutions to community public libraries and high schools, 3D-printers are being used to enrich STEM education through a variety of learning techniques and experiences. Reports of 3D-printed models for…

McComas, Kim Krusen – Gifted Child Today, 2022
A phenomenon from the natural world, cricket chirping behavior in relation to ambient temperature, is used as the springboard for engaging the curiosity of gifted students in an interdisciplinary classroom curriculum. Mathematics and science standards and disciplinary practices are prominent in the investigation, while other disciplines deepen the…

Qi Wang; Shengquan Yu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Learning resources are quite important for online learning while resource provision based on algorithms could not address learners' ubiquitous needs well. Moreover, the structure and content of resources are pre-defined which makes the "Structure" and "Content" coupled closely and could not easily adjust when learners' needs…

Mycock, Katherine – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2020
In this paper I consider whether forest schools provide a space where we could rethink pedagogy in the Anthropocene. I explore the challenges and possibilities of thinking beyond the business-as-usual of human-centric pedagogies drawing upon an ethnographic study of two forest schools, located in the West Midlands of England conducted in…

Gray, James; Lindstrøm, Christine – Physics Teacher, 2019
Khan Academy (KA) is one of the world's most popular open educational resources (OER), with more than 57 million registered users and 15 million monthly site visits as of May 2016. It is popular with students seeking additional resources for their math studies, and gaming features (in the form of points, badges, and missions) add to its appeal. As…

Giordano, Andrea N.; Gardner, David; Kennerly, William W.; Bruce, Chrystal D. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
In the midst of a global pandemic in spring 2020, physical chemistry faculty gathered to share strategies and resources for teaching remotely. During this conversation, instructors created a shared document compiling the challenges they faced in spring 2020 and ways to improve teaching and learning in the physical chemistry classroom and…

Pear, Rachel S. A.; Berger, Dov; Klein, Meir – Religious Education, 2020
With more investigation into the reception of evolution in non-Christian majority cultures, and the increased awareness that anti-evolution sentiment is a global phenomenon, new educational resources are being developed to meet newly understood needs. This article explores the situation in Israel regarding conceptions of the compatibility of…

Leonard, Gerard – NAMTA Journal, 2018
Gerard Leonard uncovers the living organic vision of Montessori scientific thought principles to ponder for our generation of Montessori: "To be ecoliterate is to understand the basic principles of ecology and to endeavor to live by them. Having a systems view of life, or what we would call in Montessori education, 'an understanding of the…

Robinson, Frank J.; Reeves, Philip M.; Caines, Helen Louise; De Grandi, Claudia – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2020
Flipped classrooms provide students the opportunity to collaboratively solve challenging problems in class with help and scaffolding available from instructors. Because there are many ways to structure a flipped course, research on the effectiveness of flipping classrooms has produced mixed results. Therefore, it is important for researchers to…

Aldajani, Neda F. – Online Submission, 2016
This paper introduces the tactile method and aims to explore the effectiveness of using tactile methods with students who are blind and visually impaired. Although there was limited research about using this strategy, all of the research agrees that using tactile is one of the best ways for students who are blind and visually impaired to be…

OECD Publishing, 2016
The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) examines not just what students know in science, reading and mathematics, but what they can do with what they know. This report is the product of a collaborative effort between the countries participating in PISA, the national and international experts and institutions working within…

Trygstad, Peggy J.; Malzahn, Kristen A.; Banilower, Eric R.; Plumley, Courtney L.; Bruce, Anna D. – Horizon Research, Inc., 2020
In 2018, the National Science Foundation supported the sixth in a series of surveys through a grant to Horizon Research, Inc. (HRI). This series of studies has been known as the National Survey of Science and Mathematics Education (NSSME). The 2018 NSSME+ was designed to provide up-to-date information and to identify trends in the areas of teacher…

Hayden, Howard C. – Physics Teacher, 2013
A television advertisement and a website present an interesting question: can rail company CSX "really" move a ton of freight 468 miles on a gallon of fuel, or is the claim preposterous? Let us examine the claim, first by understanding what is meant, looking at their data, and then converting units to examine the claim quantitatively.

Tytler, Russell; Symington, David – Teaching Science, 2015
There is considerable evidence suggesting that students in rural schools lag behind their city counterparts in measures of science literacy and attitude to science learning. If we are to address this situation we need to build as full a picture as we can of the key features of what is a complex and varied rural schooling context. In this article…

von Zastrow, Claus; Kelley, Bryan – Education Commission of the States, 2019
States' efforts to incorporate technology and engineering into K-12 science instruction appear to be bearing fruit: More than five years after states began adopting K-12 science standards that feature technology and engineering, eighth graders have notched higher scores on a national assessment of those subjects. This Policy Brief presents…
