Since 2012, when triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) were first reported by Wang and co-workers, various applications have taken advantage of their ability to transform mechanical energy into electrical energy. TENG applications cover many fields, including electronics, physics, materials science, and engineering. The differences in the language…

Solé-Llussà, A.; Aguilar, D.; Ibáñez, M. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2022
Background: Scientific inquiry is a widely accepted methodology to promote science process skills. In inquiry activities, students develop their understanding by addressing questions, performing scientific research and interpreting results derived from their research. Developing these science skills to perform scientific inquiries is considered a…

Richard Hannah – Research in Learning Technology, 2024
The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of short virtual reality (VR) exercises on knowledge retention for adult learners at a contractor safety training organisation supporting the energy industry who took computer-based training (CBT) courses. The intent was to simulate a delay period similar to that experienced by…

Jeffrey Nordine; Marcus Kubsch; David Fortus; Joseph Krajcik; Knut Neumann – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
One reason for the widespread use of the energy concept across the sciences is that energy analysis can be used to interpret the behavior of systems even if one does not know the particular mechanisms that underlie the observed behavior. By providing an approach to interpreting unfamiliar phenomena, energy provides a lens on phenomena that can set…

Yan Wang; Peng He; Jinling Geng; Zhiwei Zhu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2025
This paper presents an innovative teaching approach that integrates photoelectric technology with analytical chemistry instruction through inquiry-based learning (IBL), using cerium as a selected analyte. With the advancement of science and technology, a strong foundation of basic knowledge and methodologies is crucial in analytical chemistry…

Arnie Novianti Zulkarnain; Eka Cahya Prima; Nanang Winarno; Bevo Wahono – Journal of Science Learning, 2024
Students believed physics was one of the most challenging sciences in education, and their interest in learning physics was lacking. Therefore, this study aims to enhance students' understanding and creativity in the STEAM learning system on electricity by creating a project (Paper Circuit) using the students' creativity at the junior high school…

Nikolaos Papalazarou; Ioannis Lefkos; Nikolaos Fachantidis – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Involving students in laboratory and inquiry-based activities can help them understand the concepts of physics. However the learning process should not only focus on the concepts. Moreover, the advantages of using virtual or physical labs are still under examination. The purpose of this study is to analyse which of the two modes (virtual or…

Pulukuri, Surya; Abrams, Binyomin – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
In order to succeed in biochemistry, students must transfer and build upon their understanding of general chemistry and introductory biology concepts. One such critical area of knowledge is bioenergetics. Student misconceptions around energy and free energy must be addressed prior to learning more advanced topics, such as energy flow in metabolic…

Ramón Tirado-Morueta; Yolanda Ceada-Garrido; Antonio J. Barragán; Juan M. Enrique; José M. Andujar – Educational Studies, 2024
Few studies provide conceptual frameworks that help teachers make decisions about the scaffolding they will offer their students in project-based learning (PBL) processes. To address this deficiency, an adaptation of the motivational development self-system model was used and a PBL experience involving high school students who had to create an…

Faletic, Sergej; Planinšic, Gorazd – Physics Education, 2020
In this paper, we present activities that help students deepen their understanding of basic electrostatics using an electroscope in combination with the photoelectric effect. The students investigate the behaviour of an isolated electroscope when the metal housing of the electroscope is charged. The activities follow the framework of the…

Monsurat M. Lawal; Tugba G. Kucukkal – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
An undergraduate-level Computational Chemistry project was incorporated initially into a Physical Chemistry course and then into the laboratory curriculum in the subsequent application. Before the introduction of the project, the lectures covered quantum chemistry, spectroscopy, and kinetics while simultaneously including computational chemistry…

Lacy, Sara J.; Tobin, Roger G.; Crissman, Sally; DeWater, Lezlie; Gray, Kara E.; Haddad, Nick; Hammerman, James K. L.; Seeley, Lane – Science Education, 2022
We describe the development, design, implementation, and preliminary classroom results of an innovative curriculum, "Focus on Energy," that supports learning about energy in Grades 4-5. The curriculum is grounded in the concepts of science as practice, model-based reasoning, and learning progressions, and builds on students' pre-existing…

Nagma Zerin – Chemical Engineering Education, 2024
Project-Enhanced learning is an excellent way to facilitate student-centered learning along with traditional lecture-based learning. In this Class and Home problem, an example of Project-Enhanced learning is provided that can be used in the Mass and Energy Balances (MEB) course. The students solve this problem as part of a group while receiving…

Nazi Homayounnasab; Peter Adam Hoeher; Sandra Hansen – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2024
This paper deals with an integration of STEM education and project-based learning (PBL) by introducing a hybrid hardware/software-based learning platform covering eight learning units. PBL not only bridges the gap between theory and practice, but also focuses on improving students' soft skills, which is important as they prepare for further…

Ryan Tapping – ProQuest LLC, 2021
In this dissertation I will present my work in both the fields of spintronics and physics education research. In the first section, I present a method to account for spin pumping in spin torque ferromagnetic resonance (ST-FMR) measurements. A spin current can be generated via the spin Hall effect (SHE), which is typically transverse to the charge…
