Direct linkStokes, Donna W.; Evans, Paige K. – Palgrave Studies on Leadership and Learning in Teacher Education, 2020
This chapter describes how faculty from the "teach"HOUSTON program and physics department collaborated to increase the number of highly qualified physics teachers. Prior to this collaboration, the University had not produced even one physics teacher graduate in the previous decade. A physics teacher education pathway has been established…

Whitworth, Brooke A.; Rubino-Hare, Lori; Bloom, Nena E.; Walker, Megan C.; Arendt, Kayla R. – International Journal of Science Education, 2020
This design-based research study examined the first two cycles of development, enactment, analysis, and redesign of the Power of Data (POD) Facilitation Academy. Professional Learning and Development (PLD) providers' geospatial technology (GST) skills, understanding of programme principles, preparation, and stages of concern for implementing POD…

Cisel, Matthieu; Barbier, Charlotte – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Student-Question-Based Inquiry (SQBI) represents a form of inquiry where pupils design their research questions, hypotheses, and protocols. The "Savanturiers" program aims at helping teachers overcome their potential apprehension of SQBI by matching hundreds of elementary and middle school teachers with mentors. These mentors are usually…

Kelley, Todd R.; Knowles, J. Geoffery; Holland, Jeffrey D.; Han, Jung – International Journal of STEM Education, 2020
Background: Teachers can have a significant impact on student interest and learning in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) subjects and careers. Teacher self-efficacy can also significantly affect student learning. Researchers investigated the effects of teacher professional development and integrated STEM curriculum development on…

Foote, Kathleen T. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016
Over the past few decades, a growing body of evidence demonstrates that students learn best in engaging, interactive, collaborative, and inquiry-based environments. However, most college science classes are still taught with traditional methods suggesting the existing selection of research-based instructional materials has not widely transformed…

This paper explores the effectiveness of networking in promoting inquiry-based science education (IBSE) through raising the self-efficacy of science teachers to take ownership of more effective ways of teaching students, supported by stakeholders (Holbrook & Rannikmae, 2010). As PROFILES project (Professional Reflection Oriented Focus on…

Kam, Rosalind; Hoop, Bernard – Higher Learning Research Communications, 2013
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the authors' interaction-engagement approach in facilitating online courses, which focused on a guided inquiry approach to build understanding of core science concepts using hands-on experimental science investigations. The graduate-level courses were taught during 2005 through 2010, entirely online. The…
