Wenner, Julianne A.; Carney, Michele – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Given the myriad mandates and policies related to math and language arts education, U.S. public elementary teachers must "care about" teaching science for it to actually happen. Consequently, this study sought to explore the impacts of assignments in a science methods course supporting teacher candidates (TCs) in "caring about"…

Seul-gi Lee; Buhm Soon Park – Science & Education, 2025
No scientific concept in the twenty-first century has garnered more attention from scholars outside the scientific community than the Anthropocene. Despite the official rejection by the geological community in March 2024 of the proposal for an Anthropocene Epoch as a formal unit of the Geological Time Scale, it is expected to remain an invaluable…

Julian Shu Kai Goh; Ramya Chandrasekaran; Srinivasa Rao Sirasanagandla; Sanchalika Acharyya; Sreenivasulu Reddy Mogali – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Plastination, a permanent preservation method for human tissues and organs, is increasingly being used in anatomy education. However, there is a paucity of systematic reviews and meta-analyses summarizing the educational efficacy of plastinated specimens. This meta-analysis compared the assessment scores of students exposed to plastinated…

Ilyas Acet; Mehmet Altan Kurnaz – Journal of Theoretical Educational Science, 2025
The research examined the effect of context-based comics on the grounded mental model (GMM) development of sixth-grade students. Fifty-nine students were included in the study, which was conducted with a quasi-experimental design. A context-based comic (CbC) was used to teach the experimental group, whereas the course was taught using existing…
