Ioannis Vlachos; Georgios Stylos; Konstantinos T. Kotsis – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
The physics' subject aims to provide the student with a broad understanding of the physical phenomena that occur around them every day and introduce them to the scientific search. The use of experiments in the teaching of the subject contributes to the understanding of these phenomena, the development of skills and critical thinking and has many…

Isabel María Cruz Lorite – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2025
Historical scientific controversies have great potential to address aspects of the nature of science in context. This paper describes a design case about a novel lesson plan based on the scientific controversy between Karl von Frisch and Carl von Hess on the sight of bees (how they see). This lesson plan allows concepts related to experimentation,…

Wheat powdery mildew is an important fungal pathogen of wheat with an obligatory biotrophic lifestyle (a parasite that can only develop on a living host). We investigated the genetics of this host-pathogen interaction by using phenotyping and PCR assays to detect genes in both wheat and powdery mildew, which are known determinants of the outcome…

Electrophilic aromatic substitution (S[subscript E]Ar) and nucleophilic aromatic substitution (S[subscript N]Ar) reactions are among the most valuable reactions in the conversion of aromatic rings. While these reactions are typically covered in separate experiments in undergraduate organic courses, a continuous experimental setup elucidating both…

A laboratory experiment that involves the aqueous and solid phase synthesis, characterization, and solvatochromic properties exploration of red complex [Ni(Me[subscript 3]en)(acac)]BPh[subscript 4] has been developed for first-year undergraduates in the College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at Xiamen University. In contrast to previously…

Emiliano Foresto; Fiorela Nievas; Walter Giordano; Pablo Bogino – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
The curriculum for undergraduate Agricultural Engineering does not usually include much laboratory practice. In order to address this, here we propose the design of a practical class on legume-rhizobia symbiosis, using an interdisciplinary approach that takes elements from botany, agriculture, and microbiology. The students perform an assay to…

Jiraporn Poonyawatpornkul; Supranee Pitsamai; Onuma Methakesorn; Kotchakorn Mangmee – Journal of Learning for Development, 2025
This case study investigated the conceptual understanding of the Simple Pendulum topic amongst physics student-teachers using online experiments. A pre-experimental design was utilised, employing a one-group pretest-posttest approach with 20 student-teachers. The research instruments included a highspeed video activity conducted within Online…

Beatriz Carrasquer-Álvarez; Adrián Ponz-Miranda – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
Research into seed germination classroom activities has been common in the last few decades. Didactic proposals have generally focused on the implementation of guided activities in a specific educational stage and context, and an evaluation of the results. However, it is not evident that students approach seed and germination concepts with a…

Marina S. Robescu; Daniela Ubiali; Riccardo Semproli; Teodora Bavaro – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
A laboratory experiment was designed to introduce the practical application of biocatalysis in Bachelor and Master courses in biotechnology and medicinal chemistry, respectively. To this aim, the lipase from "Candida rugosa" was characterized (protein concentration and activity), immobilized on a carrier (by hydrophobic adsorption), and…

Anne Bergliot Øyehaug; Maria Kouns; Elwin. R. Savelsbergh – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
This study analyze data from three national contexts in which teachers worked with the same teaching materials and inquiry classroom activities, investigating teachers' use of strategies to promote interaction and scaffolding when participating in a professional development program. The data material is collected from three case studies from the…

Qianwen Song; Jiafeng Zhang; Hongsheng Wang; Zhan Zhang; Qing Zhou – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
The multiple benefits of virtual experiments applied to science education depend heavily on science teachers' intentions to use them. The inducing mechanism is a process that combines different conditions of multiple factors. From the perspective of overall configuration, this study used the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA)…

Panchami Patel; Prachi Thareja – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
This article describes two sets of experiments designed to enhance the understanding of colloidal systems. These experiments were designed as a part of the theme "Colloids: Where Science Meets Engineering" taught in the Department of Chemical Engineering and additionally offered to physics, chemistry, and materials science departments as…

Adil Hamamous; Nadia Benjelloun – Journal of Learning for Development, 2025
CAEx (Computer-Assisted Experimentation) enables real-time experiments to be carried out using a computer; it includes data acquisition and sensor systems, as well as real-time measurement of numerous physical properties. The use of computer-assisted experimentation in the teaching of physics and chemistry in Moroccan secondary schools underwent…

Providing hands-on practical education without access to laboratories during the COVID-19 pandemic has required creativity and innovation. In this paper, co-authored by academic staff and students, we describe an at-home mobile phone-based 'spectrophotometer' experiment used in an introductory undergraduate biology course. Using colour picker…
