Tekkumru-Kisa, Miray; Akcil-Okan, Ozlem; Kisa, Zahid; Southerland, Sherry – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Recent instructional reforms in science education aim to change the way students engage in learning in the discipline, as they describe that students are to engage with disciplinary core ideas, crosscutting concepts, and the practices of science to make sense of phenomena (NRC, 2012). For such sensemaking to become a reality, there is a need to…

Wendell, Kristen B.; Swenson, Jessica E. S.; Dalvi, Tejaswini S. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2019
As engineering learning experiences increasingly begin in elementary school, elementary teacher preparation programs are an important site for the study of teacher development in engineering education. In this article, we argue that the stances that novice teachers adopt toward engineering learning and knowledge are consequential for the…

von Aufschnaiter, Claudia; von Aufschnaiter, Stefan – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2003
In the literature, learners' cognitive development is mainly discussed with respect to changes in learners' content-dependent knowledge (conceptual change or growth). Additional dimensions of time and complexity may also be taken into account to describe cognitive processes in at least three dimensions. We discuss these three dimensions of…

Berger, Carl F.; Pintrich, Paul R. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1986
Uses two studies to examine developmental and task effects in estimation problems. Results are discussed in terms of student and task characteristics and the implications of such variables on information processing model of learning. Implications for science teaching, learning problem diagnostics, and science curricula are also discussed. (TW)
