Direct linkCranwell, Philippa B.; Whiteside, Karin L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Language in chemistry is highly specialized, and for students, transitions in language complexity from high school to university can be extremely challenging. With an increasingly diverse cohort of students enrolled in UK chemistry degree programs, better understanding the linguistic challenges students face is becoming a greater pedagogical…

Osterlund, Lise-Lotte; Berg, Anders; Ekborg, Margareta – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2010
We have investigated how chemistry textbooks use models of redox reactions in different subject areas, how they change models between and within the topics, and how they deal with specific learning difficulties identified in the literature. The textbooks examined were published for use in the natural science programme in Swedish upper secondary…

Alsop, Steve, Ed.; Bencze, Larry, Ed.; Pedretti, Erminia, Ed. – Open University Press, 2004
How might exemplary practice be represented by teachers' narratives? How might such representations be analyzed? How might theory and practice be related? "Analyzing Exemplary Science Teaching" is a text that seeks to combine educational theory and practice through analysis of a series of teachers' descriptions of "exemplary"…
