Stephen Adofo; Sirpa Kärkkäinen; Tuula Keinonen – Science Education International, 2024
This study examined integrated science questions of the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) in Ghana at the end of grade 9. Results from BECE determine which senior high school a student can attend. Science questions (n = 751) over the span of eight years were analyzed in this study and viewed under the lens of the revised Bloom's…

Shu-Fen Lin; Wan-Chin Shie – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Teachers lack effective curriculum-based instruments to assess their students' scientific competence that would provide information for modifying their inquiry instruction. The main purpose of this study was to develop and validate a Curriculum-Based Scientific Competence (CBSC) test to assess students' scientific competence in a 1-semester Grade…

Yue Liu; Yuxuan Lu; Shixiu Ren; Danhui Zhang – Research in Science Education, 2024
Web-based inquiry learning provides opportunities for students to take responsibility to regulate their learning. However, due to a lack of science inquiry-specific self-regulated learning (SRL) frameworks, there is insufficient understanding of SRL processes in inquiry-based science learning. This study aims to explore students' SRL patterns by…

Murni, Hutdia Putri; Azhar, Minda; Ellizar, Ellizar; Nizar, Umar Kalmar; Guspatni, Guspatni – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2022
Previous studies showed that structured inquiry-based learning is suitable for novice learners, chemical multiple representations facilitate meaningful learning, and modules are organized and complete learning materials for students. Modules designed with a structured inquiry-based model and completed with chemical multiple representations could…

Szalay, Luca; Tóth, Zoltán; Borbás, Réka; Füzesi, István – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2023
The results of an earlier four-year longitudinal research study on the development of experimental design skills led to the conclusion that 12-13 year old students probably need more help to design experiments than had been offered to them in that project. This paper reports the findings of the first year of a further four-year empirical research…

Orosz, Gábor; Németh, Veronika; Kovács, Lajos; Somogyi, Zoltán; Korom, Erzsébet – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2023
Guided inquiry-based learning has been shown to be a promising method for science education; however, despite its advantages it is rarely used in chemistry teaching in Hungary. One of the reasons for this is the lack of tried-and-tested inquiry-based teaching materials with detailed guides that teachers can readily use in their classrooms. As part…

Idul, Joevi Jhun A.; Caro, Virgencita B. – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
This study investigates the effects of process-oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) on the academic performance and science process skills of Grade 10 Filipino students in science. Specifically, this study aimed to (1) determine and compare the level of academic performance of students when exposed to POGIL and non-POGIL and (2) assess the…

Azizoglu, Nursen; Pekdag, Bülent; Sarioglan, Ayberk Bostan; Kuzucu, Gülnur – Science Education International, 2022
In this quasi-experimental research, the effect of the inquiry-based 5E instruction on students' learning of the topic of the main subatomic particles forming the atom as well as on their level of motivation was examined. The sample for the study comprised 45 ninth grade students enrolled in two randomly selected classes at a public high school…

Al-Salmani, Fatema; Johnson, Jordan; Thacker, Beth – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
We present an analysis of students' thinking skills as evidenced by free-response exam problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. We compare two inquiry-based, laboratory-based classical mechanics courses, one taught online and one taught in person during the pandemic, and two inquiry-based, laboratory-based electricity and magnetism courses, one…

Baldock, Brandi L.; Blanchard, Joanna D.; Fernandez, Anthony L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
General chemistry students need to understand the concept of intermolecular forces and use them to predict the properties of materials. To do this, they must create symbolic representations of molecules, relate these to physical observations, and explain them using submicroscopic theoretical constructs. When these concepts are taught separately,…

La Frano, Michael R.; Amin, Samir; Fanter, Rob K. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Metabolomics, the large-scale study of metabolites in biological fluids and tissues, offers the ability to observe metabolic changes in a broad context. Traditionally, nutritional metabolism education has focused on theory using textbooks. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of involving students in a feeding research study…

Ayodele Abosede Ogegbo; Umesh Ramnarain; Joseph Krajcik – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Inquiry-Based Teaching Practice (IBTP) is an essential component of science education, and promoting its implementation is at the heart of various reform efforts. Even though science teachers regard IBTP as an essential pedagogical method, they rarely use it for various reasons. This study utilizes Bronfenbrenner's ecological framework to examine…
