Do, Hieu Manh – International TESOL Journal, 2022
Plagiarism is becoming more widespread in all types of educational institutions (Park, 2003). In Vietnam, this academic dishonesty has received little attention in teaching and training at the tertiary level (Hoang, 2014; Nguyen & Filipi, 2017; Nguyen, 2018; Tran, 2021; Phan, 2006). To bridge this gap, the current study aims to investigate…

Stamer, I.; David, M. A.; Höffler, T.; Schwarzer, S.; Parchmann, I. – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
The primary objective of the current project was to convey authentic science to students in out-of-school student laboratories. High school students have diverse and partially wrong concepts of scientists' work. To convey more realistic concepts, we developed videos of scientists working on relevant and up to date scientific topics. These videos,…
