Muhfahroyin Muhfahroyin; Susriyati Mahanal; Suratno Suratno; Agus Sujarwanta – American Biology Teacher, 2025
The mastery of the ability to identify and describe plant morphology is an essential aspect of studying biology. The skill of describing plants can be developed through diverse learning resources, including textbooks and contextual materials. Therefore, this study aims to determine students' ability to describe the morphology of plants using a…

Ni Wayan Sri Darmayanti; Naif Mastoor Alsulami; Putu Beny Pradnyana; Nurul Isnaini Fitriyana; I Nengah Sueca; Muhamad Galang Isnawan – Educational Process: International Journal, 2025
Background/purpose: One of the skills that students had to master in science learning was science process skills. However, there has not been much research examining these skills in elementary schools, especially those related to practicum guides integrated with local wisdom. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of a science…

Ben Rydal Shapiro; Ilana Seidel Horn; Sierra Gilliam; Brette Garner – Educational Researcher, 2024
In conversations about pedagogy, researchers often overlook how physical space and movement shape teacher sensemaking. This article offers a comparative case study of classroom videos using a dynamic visual method to map embodied interaction called "interaction geography." Our analysis proposes an integrative framework to study classroom…

Jairo Sánchez; Mario Humberto Ramírez Diaz – European Journal of Physics Education, 2022
In this work a review of the research on augmented reality (AR) and its use of the learning of physics in the classroom is carried out. These two concepts of technology and learning are interrelated. Teachers have pre-teaching concepts and methods (conceptual changes), with the aim of having a deeper understanding of physical concepts that occur…

Ümran Sahin – International Online Journal of Primary Education, 2025
The purpose of this research is to explore prospective teachers' perspectives on the physical arrangement of an ideal classroom as a learning environment. A phenomenological design was used in this study to reveal the views of prospective teachers about the components and features of an ideal, desired classroom environment. Fifteen teacher…

Bollich, Jennifer – American Biology Teacher, 2023
Many of today's adolescents have little to no connection to their environments or the native plants and animals that share their spaces. This is primarily due to a significant decrease in the amount of time children spend outdoors now, compared with children in the mid to late 20th century, compounded by a lack of natural history and outdoor…

Christopher Speldewinde; Coral Campbell – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2024
The teaching and learning of design technology that occurs in nature-based early childhood education and care (ECEC) contexts such as nature kindergartens remains under-theorised. There is a growing body of scholarship that describes how teaching and learning occurs in these contexts as well as highlighting the benefits for young children learning…

Nikolaos Papalazarou; Ioannis Lefkos; Nikolaos Fachantidis – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Involving students in laboratory and inquiry-based activities can help them understand the concepts of physics. However the learning process should not only focus on the concepts. Moreover, the advantages of using virtual or physical labs are still under examination. The purpose of this study is to analyse which of the two modes (virtual or…

Jdaitawi, Malek; Muhaidat, Fatima; Alsharoa, Ayat; Alshlowi, Abeer; Torki, Marwa; Abdelmoneim, Mona – Athens Journal of Education, 2023
Augmented reality (AR) has become a potential technology tool to improve the skills of students with learning disabilities. The effects of AR technology approach on students with learning disabilities motivation levels is considered as the research motivation. This study examined the effect of the AR on Jordanian 6th grade students' motivation…

Risna Arifiani; Irwanto Irwanto – Journal of Educators Online, 2024
Due to the difficulty of chemical compounds to visualize, augmented reality (AR) integrated with mobile learning has been developed as an alternative media for studying chemistry. This study aims to analyze the use of AR-integrated mobile learning in chemistry education from a bibliometric perspective in the last decade. A total of 225 articles…

D'eon, Jessica C.; Stirchak, Laura T.; Brown, Abenen-Shepsu; Saifuddin, Yusra – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Understanding how to interpret and manipulate large data sets is increasingly important today; however, this experience has been slow to trickle down to the typical undergraduate student. Here, we describe the implementation of a project-based learning experience that uses portable air sensors for the real-time measurement of carbon dioxide,…

Borrows, Peter – School Science Review, 2019
Many teachers do not notice, or do not understand, the chemistry going on in and around their homes and hence do not point it out to their students. Thus they miss out on an important motivating experience. This article gives a few random examples, most of them well within the understanding of students at key stages 3 and 4 (age 11-16). From…

Elisa Serrano-Ausejo; Eva Mårell-Olsson – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Organic chemistry, also known as stereochemistry, is a subject considered to be notably complex for students to understand. Knowledge construction in stereochemistry might demand the ability to imagine or visualise the distribution of atoms. For students with insufficient spatial ability, this could be confusing. This study aimed to explore…

Notwithstanding the advantages of incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) in education, AR's concrete uses as compared to other technologies are not fully recognised. Moreover, many of the existing studies have neglected to examine the impact of pedagogy and its corresponding instructional models, whilst implementing AR in teaching and learning. In…
