Zion, Michal; Schwartz, Renee S.; Rimerman-Shmueli, Esther; Adler, Idit – Research in Science Education, 2020
One of today's challenges in science education involves the development of appropriate conceptions of inquiry teaching and realizing how these experiences can support students' understanding of the nature of science and inquiry (NOS and NOSI). To meet this challenge, we developed a course for in-service science teachers, in which…

Fitzgerald, Michael; McKinnon, David H.; Danaia, Lena; Deehan, James – Research in Science Education, 2016
In this paper, we present the results from a study of the impact on students involved in a large-scale inquiry-based astronomical high school education intervention in Australia. Students in this intervention were led through an educational design allowing them to undertake an investigative approach to understanding the lifecycle of stars more…

Haug, Berit S.; Ødegaard, Marianne – Research in Science Education, 2014
This qualitative video study explores how two elementary school teachers taught for conceptual understanding throughout different phases of science inquiry. The teachers implemented teaching materials with a focus on learning science key concepts through the development of word knowledge. A framework for word knowledge was applied to examine the…

Seung, Eulsun; Park, Soonhye; Jung, Jinhong – Research in Science Education, 2014
This study explored preservice elementary teachers' and their mentors' understanding of the essential features of inquiry-based teaching through the use of evidence-based reflection. The web-based video analysis tool (VAT) system was used to support preservice teachers' and mentors' evidence-based reflection during field…
