Adams, Stephen; Burns, Paul; Martin-Hansen, Lisa – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2018
As part of a graduate course for supporting K-12 teachers' use of technology in teaching science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects, teachers worked in teams to create workshops for youth at a Boys & Girls Club site. Teachers used curriculum kits from the Engineering is Elementary project of the Museum of Science,…

Foley, Brian J.; Reveles, John M. – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2014
The prevalence of computers in the classroom is compelling teachers to develop new instructional skills. This paper provides a theoretical perspective on an innovative pedagogical approach to science teaching that takes advantage of technology to create a connected classroom. In the connected classroom, students collaborate and share ideas in…

Guzey, S. Selcen; Roehrig, Gillian H. – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2012
The integration of technology in teaching is still challenging for most teachers, even though there has been a historical growth of Internet access and available educational technology tools in schools. Teachers have not incorporated technology into their teaching for various reasons, such as lack of knowledge of technology, time, and support. In…

Adams, Stephen T. – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2004
Although one role of computers in science education is to help students learn specific science concepts, computers are especially intriguing as a vehicle for fostering the development of epistemological knowledge about the nature of scientific knowledge--what it means to "know" in a scientific sense (diSessa, 1985). In this vein, the…

Larrabee, Timothy G.; Stein, Mary; Barman, Charles – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2006
This article describes the rationale for and development of a computer-based instrument that helps identify commonly held science misconceptions. The instrument, known as the Science Beliefs Test, is a 47-item instrument that targets topics in chemistry, physics, biology, earth science, and astronomy. The use of an online data collection system…

Valanides, Nicos; Angeli, Charoula – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2006
The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which preservice elementary teachers were able to construct viable scientific models with a computer-modeling tool, namely Model-It, and design a science lesson with models. The results of the study showed that (a) Model-It, through its scaffolds (i.e., Plan, Build, and Test modes), enabled…
