Sibel Erduran; Olivia Levrini – International Journal of Science Education, 2024
Artificial intelligence (AI) is now a major driver of societal acceleration making a significant impact on science and science education. AI is used by scientists to generate hypotheses, design experiments, collect and interpret data in ways that were not previously possible with traditional methods alone. Science education research is…

Criswell, Brett; Roemmele, Christopher; Holzer, Missy – Science Teacher, 2022
The central pedagogical principle on which the "Next Generation Science Standards" (NGSS) are built is that of three-dimensional learning. This principle posits that it is through meaningful integration of the disciplinary core ideas (DCIs), science and engineering practices (SEPs), and crosscutting concepts (CCCs) that students will…

Anoshia Khan; Cristina Altamirano; Yousuf Khan; Haroon Saeed; Tyler Moreira; Troy T. Handlovic; Mohammed R. Elshaer; Justin A. Bogart – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Many of the current synthetic methodologies utilized within academic and industrial laboratories require knowledge of how to safely handle air- and moisture-sensitive reagents and work under inert atmospheres. As a result, the ACS Committee on Professional Training recommends incorporating synthetic methods that make use of these inert atmospheres…

Joana F. C. Silva; Ma´rio T. S. Rosado; Teresa M. R. Maria; Pedro S. Pereira Silva; Manuela Ramos Silva; M. Ermelinda S. Euse´bio – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The concept of co-amorphous systems is introduced in an integrated laboratory experiment, designed for advanced chemistry students, using solvent-free, environmentally friendly mechanochemistry. The dual-drug naproxen-cimetidine co-amorphous system (NPX-CIM) is investigated as an example of the emergent field of medicinal mechanochemistry.…

Heather McMaster – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
According to the author, the "Australian Curriculum: Mathematics (AC:M) requires primary school students to measure the attributes of angle, time, temperature, length, area, capacity and mass. This article outlines some misconceptions held by primary school students which appear to stem from them not understanding terminology concerning the…

Miles, Deon T.; Joslin, Evan E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
We have developed a new foundation-level course at our institution that links the concept of chemical equilibria from four of the traditional subdisciplines (analytical, biochemistry, inorganic, and physical). The course, entitled Solution and Solid State Chemistry (CHEM 210), is designed to serve our chemistry and biochemistry majors, as well as…

Moore, A. M.; Fullick, A. – School Science Review, 2022
The "Evolving 5-19 Biology" report (RSB, 2021) presents eight key recommendations and a framework for the development of biology curricula for ages 5-19. The framework proposes organising the curriculum in 23 coherent themes that form learning progression pathways. These pathways build answers to seven 'big questions' related to big…

Skamp, Keith; Green, Jodie – Teaching Science, 2022
This paper, presented in three parts, overviews the current understandings of the Earth System and the relatively recent interdisciplinary field of Earth System Science (ESS) from a school education perspective. The representation of ESS in the Australian Curriculum is explored through the Cross Curriculum Priority area of Sustainability and the…

Stelz-Sullivan, Eleanor J.; Marchetti, Barbara; Karsili, Tolga – Education Sciences, 2022
Computational and atmospheric chemistry are two important branches of contemporary chemistry. With the present topical nature of climate change and global warming, it is more crucial than ever that students are aware of and exposed to atmospheric chemistry, with an emphasis on how modeling may aid in understanding how atmospherically relevant…

Ingram, Neil R. – School Science Review, 2020
Conrad Hal Waddington (1905--1975) was an English biologist who was especially interested in the big (metaphysical) questions of life. His thinking has become part of the foundation of modern systems biology. This article applies his thinking to middle-years school biology curricula (for ages 11-16), to see if their approach to epistemic questions…

Weston, Matt; Weston, Sam – School Science Review, 2021
This article explores some of the links that can be made to the science curriculum through learning outdoors with bushcraft and Forest School activities. It focuses particularly on students who are otherwise disengaged with learning, or who have relatively complex needs that mean they find traditional education more challenging.

Cruz, Cole L.; Holmberg-Douglas, Natalie; Onuska, Nicholas P. R.; McManus, Joshua B.; MacKenzie, Ian A.; Hutson, Bryant L.; Eskew, Nita A.; Nicewicz, David A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Despite the recognized effectiveness of course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), there are few examples of the development of a CURE-based course in a large-enrollment undergraduate organic chemistry laboratory. Herein, we describe the development and implementation of a series of undergraduate laboratory experiments centered…

Thomas, Sue – Primary Science, 2020
Plastic waste and the bee population are two topics often discussed in relation to the environment. A practical activity in a primary school classroom linked to these areas can help to fulfil some of the requirements of the science curriculum. A study of the life of bees shows the importance of pollinators and highlights the concern many people…
