Lyrica Lucas; Anum Khushal; Robert Mayes; Brian A. Couch; Joseph Dauer – International Journal of Science Education, 2025
Educational reform priorities such as emphasis on quantitative modelling (QM) have positioned undergraduate biology instructors as designers of QM experiences to engage students in authentic science practices that support the development of data-driven and evidence-based reasoning. Yet, little is known about how biology instructors adapt to the…

Cakmakci, Gultekin; Leach, John; Donnelly, James – International Journal of Science Education, 2006
This cross-sectional study identifies key conceptual difficulties experienced by upper secondary school and pre-service chemistry teachers (N = 191) in the area of reaction rates. Students' ideas about reaction rates were elicited through a series of written tasks and individual interviews. In this paper, students' ideas related to reaction rate…

Korfiatis, K.; Papatheodorou, E.; Paraskevopoulous, S.; Stamou, G. P. – International Journal of Science Education, 1999
Describes a study of the effectiveness of computer-simulation programs in enhancing biology students' familiarity with ecological modeling and concepts. Finds that computer simulations improved student comprehension of ecological processes expressed in mathematical form, but did not allow a full understanding of ecological concepts. Contains 28…
