Ariel Chasen; Hannah Chapman Tripp; Maura Borrego – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2025
We present a systematic review of 29 empirical studies on disability and fieldwork in natural science, postsecondary educational settings. Undergraduate students with disabilities are underrepresented in STEM, and disciplines requiring major field components are some of the least diverse, at least in part because fieldwork has been traditionally…

Pamela Liebig; Viviane Filor; Mariana Scheumann; Martina Buchholz; Klaus Jung – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2024
Many academic teachers present data as static graphics in their lectures and courses. However, data structures have become more complex in the last decades, especially in the biomedical disciplines, and interactive graphics can provide a better means to communicate the scientific contents to students. Besides, the technological qualifications of…

Björn Hammarfelt; Claes-Fredrik Helgesson; Gustaf Nelhans; Erik Joelsson – Research Evaluation, 2024
Disciplines display field-specific ways of valuing research contributions, and these different 'styles of valuation' influence how academic careers are assessed and formed. Yet, differences in how research is evaluated are also prevalent between different levels of assessment: collegial and organizational. Consequently, we employ a multifaceted…

Adhi Indra Hermanu; Diana Sari; Muhammad Athar Ismail Muzakir; Kurnia Aliyanti – Research Evaluation, 2024
This research was carried out to analyze the efficiency of research in Indonesian universities and explore performance differences between knowledge areas. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to evaluate the efficiency based on the data of 47 universities in the "Mandiri" cluster between 2014 and 2018 and 11 research fields…

Positive outcomes from undergraduate research experiences (UREs) have resulted in calls to broaden and diversify participation in research. However, we have little understanding of what demographics are reported and considered in the analyses of student outcomes from UREs. Without this information, it is impossible to assess whether participation…

Urhahne, Detlef; Kremer, Kerstin – Educational Psychology, 2023
Based on the theory of integrated domains in epistemology, the question of domain specificity of epistemic beliefs was investigated from a comprehensive perspective. We examined intraindividual differences in epistemic beliefs about the natural, mathematical, social, and linguistic sciences that represented almost the entire spectrum of subjects…

Hirao, Tomotaka – Higher Education Forum, 2023
This paper replicates models developed by previous research to study the effects of graduate education on new graduates' initial employment in the Japanese labor market. If education is the best investment for an individual's economic success, then graduate degrees are expected to provide an individual with higher-earning job opportunities.…

Nosofsky, Robert M.; Meagher, Brian J.; Kumar, Parhesh – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
A classic issue in the cognitive psychology of human category learning has involved the contrast between exemplar and prototype models. However, experimental tests to distinguish the models have relied almost solely on use of artificially-constructed categories composed of simplified stimuli. Here we contrast the predictions from the models in a…

Mafugu, Tafirenyika; Tsakeni, Maria; Jita, Loyiso C. – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2022
The teaching of natural sciences and technology in primary schools presents an opportunity to use innovative approaches to teach STEM-based activities. The subject presents opportunities for learners to experience STEM-based instructional approaches in their early school years; therefore, it is essential that preservice primary school teachers are…

Victor M. Deekens; Brian M. Cartiff; Jeffrey A. Greene – Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2024
Background: Today's complex information environment requires effective navigation and analysis of multiple sources to make reliable decisions about complex topics. Learners must enact thinking that reliably leads to well-justified decisions, adapt thinking to specific problems and contexts, and recognize the limits of their existing knowledge…

Sandhya Krishnan – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Failure seems to have various meanings and manifestations in diverse contexts. Students hope to avoid failure because of the potential consequences towards their aspirations, yet scientists speak of failure as a typical part of the scientific experience. Because of its consequential impact for students, particularly for undergraduate STEM…

Lukwago, Julius; Martins, Ana Maria De Azevedo; Tefera, Orthodox – International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, 2023
Purpose Although natural science disciplines significantly contribute to sustainable development goals (SDGs), little research attends to how higher education institutions (HEIs) influence the development of leadership skills needed among sustainability leaders. This paper aims to examine the leadership development experiences of natural…

Bader, Jordan D.; Ahearn, Kelsey A.; Allen, Beverly A.; Anand, Diya M.; Coppens, Andrew D.; Aikens, Melissa L. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Controversial scientific issues, or socioscientific issues (SSIs), demand the consideration of more than scientific content when constructing decisions. The Justification for Knowing framework (JFK) was developed to categorize the information sources drawn upon when making SSI decisions within the academic domain of natural sciences. These…
