Hu, Chih-Chien; Yeh, Hui-Chin; Chen, Nian-Shing – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
In-service teachers' professional development regarding technology adoption in education is often focused on only one specific technology. To maximize the utilization of technologies, teachers need to be able to leverage different technologies seamlessly. Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is one of the most important frameworks…

Wong, Joseph T.; Bui, Nu N.; Fields, Damani T.; Hughes, Bradley S. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Traditional teacher professional development (PD) programs frequently lack sufficient face-to-face preparation time to adequately support the implementation of evidence-based pedagogical strategies in classrooms, with teachers citing insufficient preparedness and training time for new methods. To investigate potentials for online PD methods to…

Antink-Meyer, Allison; Arias, Anna Maria – Science & Education, 2022
The paper reports about a study that examines changes in teachers' incorporation of epistemic practices in their design of engineering lessons and compares them to their views about the nature of engineering knowledge across 100 hours of professional development. Nineteen K-8 teachers in the USA, who were new to teaching engineering as part of a…

Sage Andersen; Bradley S. Hughes – Journal of Educators Online, 2024
This study compared two versions of the same elementary science professional development (PD) and curriculum program that were offered face-to-face and completely online, while keeping all content consistent between the two. Using quantitative analyses of pre- and posttests of content knowledge (CK), we evaluated the extent to which the online…

Using Zone Theory to Understand Teacher Identity as an Embedder-of-Numeracy: An Analytical Framework
Bennison, Anne – Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education, 2022
Teacher identity provides useful insights into the learning and practices of teachers. The complexity of identity, however, makes it difficult to use in empirical research. An analytical framework with two components is presented. This analytical framework comprises a framework for identity as an embedder-of-numeracy, which clearly defines a…

Vollmer, Helmut Johannes – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2021
This contribution will outline the development of a specific approach of theoretical educational thinking in Germany, associated with the notions of "Didaktik"/didactics and "Fachdidaktik"/subject-matter didactics as well as its comparative, generalized form called "General Subject Didactics" (GSD). The first one…

A. M. Bowling; W. Klooster; A. J. Lindsey – Natural Sciences Education, 2024
Agricultural systems are complex and can be used as examples to teach science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts. However, inclusion of agriculture in core STEM courses is often limited. Three professional development sessions for K-12 teachers were offered in 2021-2022 (hybrid or remote sessions) and repeated in 2022-2023…

Coffey, Pat; Sharpe, Rachael – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
Ireland's government placed a renewed focus on the teaching and learning of numeracy with the publication of a national strategy in 2011. Whole-school planning for numeracy was already a requirement for disadvantaged schools also known as Delivering Equality of Opportunity in Schools (DEIS) in Ireland. This single site case study explored how a…

Yang, Yang; Liu, Xiufeng; Gardella, Joseph A., Jr. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2020
Situated in the context of an in-service professional development (PD) program focused on Interdisciplinary Science Inquiry, this quantitative study tests the validity of and further explores the theoretical model adapted from Desimone's (2009), "Educational Researcher," 38, 181-199 conceptual framework on effectiveness of PD. The…

Garner, Joanna K.; Kaplan, Avi; Hathcock, Stephanie; Bergey, Bradley – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2020
Two common goals of science teacher professional development (PD) are increased content knowledge (CK) and improved readiness to teach through inquiry. However, PD assessment challenges arise when the context is structured around inquiry-based, participant-driven learning, and when the content crosses scientific disciplines. This study extended…
