Direct linkMindorff, David – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Practical work involving laboratory experiments is agreed upon to be an essential component of secondary science education. Practical work encompasses a broad range of activity types. The different forms of practical work are not equal in terms of cognitive demand and learning benefit. Inquiry-based investigations provide experience of cognitive…

Viljaranta, Jaana; Nurmi, Jari-Erik; Aunola, Kaisa; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – Journal of Research on Adolescence, 2009
The present study examined what kinds of patterns of task-values adolescents show, and whether these patterns predict their educational and occupational expectations and school track. Six hundred and fourteen adolescents were examined twice before their transition to secondary education and once thereafter. The clustering-by-cases analyses…
