In recent years, developing students' knowledge integration of specific topics through effective teaching methods has been a concern in science education. This study explored an alternative teaching method, which aims to help lower secondary school students develop their knowledge structure about buoyancy towards a logically integrated conceptual…

Creative spaces and experimental practices being used by teachers can create intrinsic motivation in students. Previous research has shown that intrinsic motivation in students can be cultivated using student interests while also finding a balance for creating challenges for the students while also not making something so challenging that the…

This study aimed to measure the effectiveness of the Discovery-based Multiple Representation (DMR) learning model that use to improve student critical thinking skills (CTS) of students on environmental change material. This study used the pre-experiment method, with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The populace of this study was students in…

Understanding scientific phenomena requires learners to construct mental models of causal systems. Simulation-based discovery learning offers learners the opportunity to construct mental models and test them against the behavior of a simulation. The purpose of this study was to investigate sequential patterns of learner actions and utterances…

For a semester within a transition-to-proof course, mathematics majors explored two famous conjectures: The Twin Primes Conjecture and the Collatz Conjecture. Students were scaffolded into exploring the conjectures through directed activities but were also expected to create their own methods of exploration. We documented students' experiences…

This research aims at detecting and stimulating multiple intelligences of kindergarten children early by applying collaborative action research by academics and practitioners. This research moves from the most fundamental problem in early childhood education activities especially in kindergartens namely the teachers' mistreatment in learning…

The pandemic period forces the teaching and learning process to be carried out online. However, most of the teaching materials are still in the form of those used in pre-pandemics and, therefore, are irrelevant to use. Therefore, educators need alternative teaching materials suitable to support online learning in a pandemic. For this reason, this…

In this qualitative study, we interviewed 20 environmental educators from six countries about their perceptions of gender in their work with children in nature. While many agreed that the physical environment seemed to bring fewer gendered cues to learning and allowed for more independent exploration, their responses also reflected limited…
