This article focuses on integration of the technology of iSENSE into the secondary education as a teaching and learning tool to design, develop, and infuse digital learning experiences that utilize technology. The objective of each lesson was to use this application to achieve redefinition, create new tasks previously inconceivable, and transform…

Effective organic chemistry instruction necessitates an adaptable approach that accommodates varied learning styles and improves students' comprehension of concepts. To attain this goal, teachers may employ visualization, molecular modeling, and interactive software to explain three-dimensional structures and spatial interactions. Thus, the…

Purpose: This research paper aims to provide information about certified learning apps for biological education and gave an ordered list of all learning apps currently used by Austrian biology teachers in the classroom, which should serve as an overview for all biology teachers. In addition, the (currently little known) certification process of…

This study determined how chemistry instruction using technology affected student achievement and retention. To achieve the goal of the study, Solomon's four-group quasi-experimental research design was used. The one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and independent sample t-test were used to statistically examine the data. A one-way ANOVA analysis…

This study investigated students' conceptions of science learning before and after the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak via drawing analysis. A total of 521 Taiwanese students in 7th, 9th, and 11th grades were asked to illustrate how they conceptualized science learning in an actual and ideal context. A coding checklist was developed to analyze the…

The aim of this study was to investigate whether secondary science teachers had different styles of technology adoption for technology-based assessments (TBAs), and whether teachers with different adoption styles showed different patterns of beliefs, attitudes and intentions regarding TBAs. By combining the variable-centered and person-centered…

With increased technology use in classrooms, teachers must design lessons that integrate technology use and stimulate cognitive processing. This dissertation explored science teachers' perceptions of integrating technology-based instruction on cognitive processing in secondary school science. It is vital to understand the neuroscience behind…

This paper describes how plate tectonics and rock genesis, two topics that are typically addressed separately in secondary Earth science classes, can be taught together as an integrated system. We define the TecRocks Reasoning Framework, developed to support student reasoning about rock formation situated in the context of plate tectonics. We also…

Recent years have seen a growing call for inquiry-based learning in science education, and mobile technologies are perceived as increasingly valuable tools to support this approach. However, there is a lack of understanding of mobile technology-supported inquiry-based learning (mIBL) in secondary science education. More evidence-based, nuanced…

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies continue to revolutionize various sectors, including their incorporation into education, particularly in K-12 science education, which has become evidently significant. This paper presents a bibliometric analysis and systematic review that examines the incorporation of AI technologies in K-12 science…

Quantum information science and technology is a growing field. Programs like Quantum Flagship in the EU and the National Quantum Initiative Act in the U.S. have called for science education and science education research to provide efforts and competencies for preparing the workforce and the next generations of quantum experts and promoting…

Digital video has become a dominant form of student learning in and beyond the classroom, and thus its pervasive nature in contemporary learning environments commands scholarly inquiry. In this paper we explore a participatory design-based research approach to the integration of video hook technology in the post-primary science classroom (students…

Science education literature has highlighted socio-scientific issues (SSI) as an effective pedagogy for teaching science in a social and political context. SSI links science education and real-world problems to engage students in real-world issues, making it ideal for teaching global climate change (GCC). Additionally, technological advances have…

This study aims to implement an exemplary instructional design-based ICT integration to allow students to acquire both course achievement and knowledge society skills. The research used the case study method. The participants consist of 30 students, who attend the course of Science and Technology at the 7th grade level in a state school, along…

"Virtual Reality in Curriculum and Pedagogy" explores the instructional, ethical, practical, and technical issues related to the integration of immersive virtual reality (VR) in school classrooms. The book's original pedagogical framework is informed by qualitative and quantitative data collected from the first-ever study to embed…
