D'eon, Jessica C.; Stirchak, Laura T.; Brown, Abenen-Shepsu; Saifuddin, Yusra – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Understanding how to interpret and manipulate large data sets is increasingly important today; however, this experience has been slow to trickle down to the typical undergraduate student. Here, we describe the implementation of a project-based learning experience that uses portable air sensors for the real-time measurement of carbon dioxide,…

Naila, Ishmatun – Elementary School Forum (Mimbar Sekolah Dasar), 2020
Collaborative skills are among four essential life skills that students need to master in the 21st century. The fifth-grader of elementary school students' low collaborative skills encourages the researcher to develop a science project learning model with an entrepreneurship model to improve these skills. The purpose of this research is to…

Kim, Deoksoon; Kim, So Lim; Barnett, Mike – International Journal of Multicultural Education, 2021
This study describes how culturally relevant pedagogy in a project-based science class improved student engagement and comprehension. We focus on bicultural students exploring cultural objects and household inventions with family members and connecting scientific concepts to their families' funds of knowledge. We use a multiple-case study design…

Touitou, Israel; Barry, Stephen; Bielik, Tom; Schneider, Barbara; Krajcik, Joseph – Science Teacher, 2018
Project-based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach to science teaching that supports the "Next Generation Science Standards" (Krajcik 2015; NGSS Lead States 2013). In a PBL lesson, students design and solve real-world problems or explain scientific phenomena. Students using a PBL model learn and retain more than those not using…

Blachut, Klaus – School Science Review, 2018
3D printers can do a lot more than just printing nice little giveaways such as keyring pendants or chess pieces. During a project at the Holbein-Gymnasium Augsburg in Bavaria, Germany, students developed a number of helpful tools for chemistry lessons and tested them in classes. Full details of these are now available for free to any teacher who…
