Direct linkCheng, Meng-Fei; Brown, David E. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2015
Student construction of models is a strong focus of current research and practice in science education. In order to study in detail the interactions between students' model generation and evaluation and their development of explanatory ideas to account for magnetic phenomena, a multi-session teaching experiment was conducted with a small number of…

Lamb, Richard; Akmal, Tariq; Petrie, Kaylan – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2015
Successful STEM learning depends on the interaction of affect, cognition, and application of ideas. Simply put students who are unwilling to persist in STEM based endeavors do not suddenly develop into scientists, mathematicians, engineers or computer scientists, nor do they seek out STEM related courses or STEM based careers. The purpose of this…

Peer reviewedWilliamson, Vickie M.; Abraham, Michael R. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1995
A Particulate Nature of Matter Evaluation Tests was used to explore the effect of computer animations depicting the particulate nature of matter on (n=400) college students' mental models and comprehension of chemical phenomena. Treatment groups received significantly higher conceptual understanding scores than did the control group. (30…
