Fan, Szu-Chun; Yu, Kuang-Chao; Lou, Shi-Jer – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2018
Engineering design practice has been recognized as an effective approach to engage students in STEM learning. However, we noticed that students who possessed strong STEM knowledge did not necessarily perform well on their design projects. Thus, this study sought to explore factors that shaped students' design objectives and means. A design-based…

Cencelj, Zvonka; Aberšek, Boris; Flogie, Andrej; Aberšek, Metka Kordigel – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2020
Science, technology and engineering functional literacy should be developed purposely in the school system -- like any other competence, it does not develop spontaneously. For this purpose, a didactic model, the Metacognitive Model for Developing Science, Technology and Engineering Literacy (McM_T&E), was developed. Apart from acquiring…

Aberšek, Metka Kordigel; Cencel, Zvonka; Aberšek, Boris; Flogie, Andrej – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2019
Technology and engineering functional literacy should be intentionally developed in the school system -- like any other competence, it does not develop spontaneously. For this purpose, a didactic model, the Metacognitive model for developing technology and engineering literacy (McM_T&E), was developed, implemented and evaluated. The results of…

Griese, Birgit; Lehmann, Malte; Roesken-Winter, Bettina – International Journal of STEM Education, 2015
Background: Learning strategies are considered a key aspect for academic performance not only for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) students. Refining their assessment thus constitutes a worthwhile research purpose. The aim of this study is to examine the 69-item LIST questionnaire ("ZDDP" 15:185-200, 1994) with the…
