Maknun, Churun Lu'lu'il; Rosjanuardi, Rizky; Jupri, Al – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2022
Epistemological obstacle is emphasized in mathematics education. Students often have limited students' context of knowledge in understanding trigonometry. Knowing the epistemology obstacle can help a teacher understand the student's misconception. Therefore, this study aimed to identify students' epistemological obstacles of trigonometry and…

Balgopal, Meena M.; Gerardo, Nicole M.; Topden, Jampa; Gyatso, Kalden – Science Education, 2021
In formal learning spaces, students must navigate making meaning of both new knowledge and potentially new worldviews. In this qualitative grounded theory study, we examined how adult Buddhist monastic students learned about and described the origin of biodiversity in an introductory biology course. The study was conducted at a Tibetan settlement…

Despite voluminous studies into teachers' cognition and the role of teachers' beliefs in their practices, not many studies have addressed the impact of teachers' epistemological beliefs (EB, beliefs about the source of knowledge) on their teaching styles. In this study, a mixed design research method was adopted to show English language teachers'…

Carey, Miriam – International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2020
This paper presents the results of a pilot SoTL study re: a non-traditional leadership course delivered in three sections of a foundational General Education course at Mount Royal University in Calgary, Canada in 2016-17. This non-traditional course focuses explicitly on ontological change (a change in way of being) rather than epistemological…

Antonelli-Carter, Lucia – History Teacher, 2020
In this article, the author will start with discussing what the scholarship of teaching and learning in history has to say about the role that epistemological inquiry should play in the history classroom. The author will then describe the history classroom through the lens of students' beliefs about the nature and source of historical knowledge…

Hadjilouca, Rodothea; Constantinou, Costas – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2019
Background: Helping upper elementary and lower secondary school students develop an awareness of various aspects of the nature of science (NOS) and nature of technology (NOT) is a widely recognized goal of science teaching. In this study, we focus on the connections between science and technology (S&T). Purpose: We report on the design,…
