Krystal Dawn Grieger – ProQuest LLC, 2024
There has been a growing emphasis on integrating green and sustainable chemistry (GSC) into the curriculum. Unfortunately, there is yet to be a nationwide, uniform decision of which aspects should be included or how, leaving individual instructors or institutions to decide whether--and how--to address GSC knowledge. Furthermore, faculty nationwide…

Drayton, Brian; Bernstein, Debra; Schunn, Christian; McKenney, Susan – Science Education, 2020
This study examines and compares how developers designed two primary science curricula to support teacher adaptation and enable use of innovative materials at scale. The two cases--"Literacy Science" (a science and literacy curriculum for grades 2-5) and "Science as Inquiry" (a curriculum focused on matter for grades 3-5)--were…

Mendez, Gabriela – Distance Learning, 2019
In the K-12 2010 report by the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, the term "deeply digital" referred to comprehensive instructional materials for STEM education that "would use simulations, probes, multimedia, and other digital resources as needed" (p. 80). When used in a broader sense, deeply digital…

Marco-Bujosa, Lisa M.; McNeill, Katherine L.; González-Howard, María; Loper, Suzanna – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2017
Educative curriculum materials provide teachers with authentic opportunities to learn new skills and practices. Yet, research shows teachers use curriculum in different ways for different reasons, and these modifications could undermine the learning goals of the curriculum. Little research, however, has examined the variation in teacher use of…

Arias, Anna Maria; Bismack, Amber Schultz; Davis, Elizabeth A.; Palincsar, Annemarie Sullivan – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2016
New reform documents underscore the importance of learning both the practices and content of science. This integration of practices and content requires sophisticated teaching that does not often happen in elementary classrooms. Educative curriculum materials--materials explicitly designed to support teacher and student learning--have been posited…
