Alonzo, Alicia C.; Wooten, Michelle M.; Christensen, Julie – Science Education, 2022
As models of how students' thinking may change over time, learning progressions (LPs) have been considered as supports for teachers' classroom assessment practices. However, like all models, LPs provide simplified representations of complex phenomena. One key simplification is the characterization of student thinking using levels--that is, the…

Kettle, Maria – Physics Education, 2020
Short videos are widely used in secondary level physics classes, part of a portfolio of strategies for teaching and learning. However, research into how they are used, why they are used and the optimum design for learning is in its infancy. This paper seeks to examine how videos are used in UK physics classrooms for the communication of physics…

Kouchou, Ihsane – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2022
The innovation calls insist on the fact to identify new forms and models of learning and teaching. Actually, the educational approaches that encourage effective learning among student, is the Investigative Approach, which demonstrates more and more its potential in teaching. It is a scientific approach based on questioning and investigation where…

Justin Gambrell; Eric Brewe – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Computational thinking in physics has many different forms, definitions, and implementations depending on the level of physics or the institution it is presented in. To better integrate computational thinking in introductory physics, we need to understand what physicists find important about computational thinking in introductory physics. We…

Nuris Shobah; Eko Hariyono; Mita Anggaryani; Fasih Bintang Ilhami; Nina Fajriyah Citra – Journal of Science Learning, 2025
Sustainable living is critical for the next generation, and ESD competencies are required to handle global concerns. Education of Sustainable Development (ESD) helps to overcome this gap, however, technological integration is restricted and lacking in a complete framework. To overcome these problems, this study designed a website as an interactive…

Saka, Tolga; Inaltekin, Tufan – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2023
Exploring science teachers' classroom assessment behaviors is a way to understand the professional knowledge competencies underlying effective teaching practices. One of the most important components of in-class assessments is teacher questions. However, studies examining teacher questions that provide support to accurately determine student…

Shar, Kelli; Russ, Rosemary S.; Laverty, James T. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
Assessments are usually thought of as ways for instructors to get information from students. In this work, we flip this perspective and explore how assessments communicate information to students. Specifically, we consider how assessments may provide information about what faculty and/or researchers think it means to know and do physics, i.e.,…

Cámara-Zapata, José M.; Morales, Domingo – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
The dropout rate of university engineering studies is correlated with the absence of retention of freshman in the basic subjects. The aim of this work is to determine the effect of cooperative learning and the characteristics of students on learning, persistence, and academic performance. We have performed a study of learning, persistence and…

Wiener, Gerfried J.; Schmeling, Sascha M.; Hopf, Martin – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2018
This article presents a study that examined an innovative short-term program (two sessions of 3 hr each) for the professional development of teachers. The program design is based on the technique of probing acceptance, which is aimed at investigating student learning processes. It relies on students' evaluation, paraphrasing, and adaptation of…

Alonzo, Alicia C.; Elby, Andrew – Cognition and Instruction, 2019
As scientific models of student thinking, learning progressions (LPs) have been evaluated in terms of one important, but limited, criterion: fit to empirical data. We argue that LPs are not empirically adequate, largely because they rely on problematic assumptions of theory-like coherence in students' thinking. Through an empirical investigation…

Thorsteinsson, Gisli; Kikkull, Andry – Design and Technology Education, 2019
This article examines the possibility of supporting craft education by incorporating knowledge students have gained via science lessons: such knowledge largely refers to the mathematics and physics taught in Estonian comprehensive schools. Results were gleaned from interviews with craft teachers in Estonia, in order to establish their attitudes to…

Kusairi, Sentot; Alfad, Haritzah; Zulaikah, Siti – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2017
Fluid statics is one of the most difficult topics for students to learn. Formative assessment and remedial instruction can help students master the concepts. However, identifying students' challenges for formative purposes and facilitating remedial learning is not easy given to the number of students and variation of the problems encountered. An…

Macaya, Anthony Melancio – Online Submission, 2020
This study aimed at developing a module in physics based on the assessment of the learning progression of students in physics and science teachers' formative assessment practices. The participants in this study were the Grade 11 students and Junior High School science teachers for the data gathering, science teachers for the design and development…

Wilson, Frances; Wade, Neil; Evans, Steve – School Science Review, 2016
As part of a wider qualification reform at upper secondary level in England, the assessment of practical work is changing, following concerns that the legacy model of assessment was having a negative impact on teaching and learning. The OCR examination board is running a longitudinal survey of teachers' views on practical work, focusing on the…

Chiu, Mei-Shiu – Research in Science Education, 2016
The aim of this study was to identify challenges in implementing a physics-before- 10 mathematics curriculum. Obviously, students need to learn necessary mathematics skills in order to develop advanced physics knowledge. In the 2010 high school curriculum in Taiwan, however, grade 11 science students study two-dimensional motion in physics without…
