Ebru Mazlum Güven – Online Submission, 2024
Teachers' technological experiences are constrained by limitations in reflective decision-making and theoretical frameworks. Challenges with the technological pedagogical content knowledge framework (TPACK) are often associated with deficits in self-regulation. To effectively develop TPACK, it is recommended that educators focus on enhancing…

Henna Iqbal; Kenneth Onyedibe – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2024
Bacteria form an intense portion of reading and learning for students enrolled in microbiology education. As a part of the foundational course outline of bacteriology, bacterial classification is a significant topic of discussion. The purpose of our study was to analyze whether bacterial classification can be taught with a phylogenetic tree…

Hsu, Jeremy L.; Rowland-Goldsmith, Melissa – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
The transition to online learning in spring 2020 was abrupt for both students and instructors. While many instructors moved to asynchronous classes, some institutions relied more heavily on synchronous online courses. Here, we evaluate student perceptions of an inquiry-based molecular biology lecture and lab course following this transition by…

Stela-Marina Kostaki; Michalis Linardakis – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
The current study explores the preferences of primary school teachers on the characteristics of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)-based teaching via Discrete Choice Models (DCM). These models analyze the preferences of teachers towards alternatives that are formed by different characteristics. In this study we examined the…

Gardner, Stephanie M.; Suazo-Flores, Elizabeth; Maruca, Susan; Abraham, Joel K.; Karippadath, Anupriya; Meir, Eli – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Graphing is an important practice for scientists and in K-16 science curricula. Graphs can be constructed using an array of software packages as well as by hand, with pen-and-paper. However, we have an incomplete understanding of how students' graphing practice vary by graphing environment; differences could affect how best to teach and assess…

Williams, Ursula J.; Dries, Daniel R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
In order to evaluate students' development of scientific competence at the intermediate level, a guided-inquiry course was developed to increase student independence, including opportunities for project ownership and significant collaborative learning expectations. A survey was developed to assess students' experiences learning the scientific…

Kosmaca, Jelena; Cinite, Ilva; Barinovs, Girts – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2023
Interactive learning materials can be a more efficient and engaging way of studying physics than lecturing. This research aims to explore the use of interactive H5P video as an alternative to traditional teacher-led class presentations at the university physics practicum. The quasi-experimental research design was implemented with 60 undergraduate…

Dunlosky, John; Dudley, Daniel; Spitznagel, Mary Beth; Clements, Robert J. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2019
We investigated students' knowledge and beliefs about the impact of using three-dimensional (3D) multimedia presentations. Students listened to a lecture about the ventricular system, which was presented alone (Experiment 1 only) or with a 3D or a 2D video illustrating the system. Afterwards, students judged how well they would perform on a…

Bennie, Simon J.; Ranaghan, Kara E.; Deeks, Helen; Goldsmith, Heather E.; O'Connor, Michael B.; Mullholland, Adrian J.; Glowacki, David R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
The reemergence of virtual reality (VR) in the past few years has led to affordable, high-quality commodity hardware that can offer new ways to teach, communicate, and engage with complex concepts. In a higher-education context, these immersive technologies make it possible to teach complex molecular topics in a way that may aid or even supersede…

Pearson, Russell J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
This work explores the performance of online post-lecture chemistry crossword puzzles as revision aids for 132 first-year and 120 second-year undergraduate pharmacy students. The use of these puzzles as a form of remote active learning was fortuitously evaluated immediately prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic based on students' online study…
