Pierson, Ashlyn E.; Clark, Douglas B.; Brady, Corey E. – Science Education, 2021
Research suggests that translanguaging can be transformative for teaching and learning by making students' diverse linguistic resources a meaningful part of classroom discourse. Building on this study, researchers have explored how translanguaging practices can support learning in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), primarily…

Borovay, Lindsay A.; Shore, Bruce M.; Caccese, Christina; Yang, Ethan; Hua, Olivia – Journal of Advanced Academics, 2019
Beyond cognitive outcomes, inquiry instruction can have positive general and differentiated affective outcomes. In this exploratory study, teacher-nominated high- to low-average achievers in Grades 5 through 9 (N = 272, mean age 11.7 years), in classrooms exhibiting rare, occasional, and frequent inquiry qualities, were assessed on…

Cynthia Bansak; Julie K. Smith; Christine L. Storrie – Journal of Economic Education, 2025
The authors of this article describe three student-driven learning modules developed from their respective College Fed Challenge courses. These activities are ready-to-apply in a wide range of courses to facilitate adoption without a large time commitment. In the "Pick a Policy Maker" module, students gain an understanding of the…

Fortmann, Lea; Beaudoin, Justin; Rajbhandari, Isha; Wright, Aedin; Neshyba, Steven; Rowe, Penny – Journal of Economic Education, 2020
The authors of this article introduce two teaching modules that aim to increase climate literacy and active learning in undergraduate economics courses through the incorporation of real-world data and modeling. These modules are based on the concept of computational guided inquiry (CGI), which combines a guided inquiry approach within a…

Elif Ertem Akbas; Lütfiye Yildirm – Online Submission, 2024
The fact that the mathematics course is abstract, that it is not possible to associate it with daily life, and that it is impossible to concretize abstract expressions causes a prejudice against the this course and leads to a decrease in the academic achievements of students. It is seen that throughout history, various studies have been carried…

Braskén, Mats; Pörn, Ray – LUMAT: International Journal on Math, Science and Technology Education, 2021
Although one of key ideas behind the introduction of STEM (or STEAM) as a unifying concept, is to emphasize the interdisciplinary character of many real world problems, there is a non-trivial educational challenge in exceeding existing subject boundaries and implementing multidisciplinary activities into the classroom. The present case study…

Sochacka, Nicola W.; Delaine, David A.; Shepard, Thomas G.; Walther, Joachim – Advances in Engineering Education, 2021
Prior research indicates that empathy can help engineers achieve better outcomes in team-based, design, entrepreneurial, and humanitarian environments. We describe an educational innovation designed to teach engineering students empathic communication skills. Written in the spirit of a propagation (versus dissemination) paradigm, we focus on how…

This study explores teachers' use of Spanish in sixth-grade bilingual science classrooms at an urban middle school in Texas. We used a case study approach to study how two Spanish-English bilingual teachers utilized Spanish during instruction in a unit on space exploration and their beliefs on Spanish use in English-dominant science classrooms.…

Szmodis, Whitney E.; Bodzin, Alec – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2018
A project-based engineering education unit was implemented in a primary school in Cambodia. An effectiveness study was conducted to investigate students' attitudes and expectations of engineering as a profession and students' self-perceived 21st century skills. The findings revealed that prior to the curriculum implementation both male and female…

Smith, Christopher – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2023
English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers and students are often pressured to use generic, globally published textbooks featuring 'inner-circle' social realities. While some studies look at specific instances of content that socially marginalizes their intended audiences, few attempt comprehensive examinations of the multimodal ensembles on…

Brian Hibbs – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2023
For several decades, English language learners in P-12 setting were initially viewed from a deficit perspective (Valenzuela, 1999) in which they were unfairly and unjustly compared with the dispositions, experiences, skills, etc. of their native-speaking counterparts. In recent years, however, these learners are increasingly considered from an…

McFeetors, P. Janelle; Marynowski, Richelle; Candler, Alexandra – Education Sciences, 2021
In our pursuit to broaden and deepen understandings of what it means to engage in an assessment activity, we explored the designing and implementing of a geometry performance task as an instantiation of authentic assessment to assess elementary school students' mathematics learning. Using participatory action research, we incorporated a…

Arthurs, Leilani A. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2019
Despite the need for public understanding about groundwater resources, groundwater is among those topics that instructors most struggle to teach at pre-college and college levels. Although constructivist theories suggest student-held conceptions can be used as teaching tools for active learning, there remains a question about how to draw out and…

Explicit Instruction and Implicit Use of L2 Learning Strategies in Higher Secondary EFL Course Books
Bueno-Alastuey, M. Camino; Agulló, Gloria Luque – International Journal of English Studies, 2015
Research has shown that teaching second language (L2) learning strategies explicitly promotes an increase in strategy use and in oral proficiency. Consequently, a checklist based on the six types of strategies from Oxford's taxonomy (1990) was created to analyze strategic instruction in the most common textbooks used in the last year of Higher…
