Rapidly occurring advancements in molecular genetics, such as recent developments in epigenetics, are challenging traditional genetics as it is taught at schools. For example, the adoption of epigenetics--which provides molecular mechanisms for the environment to directly alter phenotypic variation--would mean that pivotal tenets in genetics…

Carroll, Meredith; Lindsey, Summer; Chaparro, Maria; Winslow, Brent – Interactive Learning Environments, 2021
Mobile technology's ubiquity has caused a shift in how students learn and how pedagogy can take place. Educators have the potential to engage students more fully in the modern educational environment, by making learning content and interactions accessible via mobile devices, both within and outside of the classroom. There is a need to leverage the…

Bitzenbauer, Philipp; Meyn, Jan-Peter – Physics Education, 2021
Physics teachers are often faced with the challenge of having to set up difficult experiments, or they have to consciously manipulate parameters in order to be able to demonstrate a phenomenon convincingly. Comprehensive laboratory courses are standard procedure in any study program for prospective physics teachers. However, many students, even…

Kelly, Susan Meabh – Science Teacher, 2021
Thanks to the development and deployment of federally funded satellite-, buoy-, and aircraft-based remote sensing instruments, continuous streams of Earth and space data are publicly available via online databases. This accessibility provides flexibility to explore geoscience data that are interesting and relevant to students--keystone components…

Borrull, Anna; Valls, Cristina – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2021
Practical work as observation and experimentation are vital parts of science education. One way to accomplish this is by applying inquiry-based learning in laboratory activities. Inquiry enhances the development of scientific skills as well as the learning of the scientific concepts. In the present article, a laboratory activity was developed to…

Adnan; Mulbar, Usman; Sugiarti; Bahri, Arsad – International Journal of Instruction, 2021
The aim of this study was to determine the scientific literacy skills of students at junior high school (JHS) in biology teaching in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. This research was a survey research. Sampling was selected through a progressive random sampling technique with stratification. The research samples were four junior high schools, they are:…

VanVeller, Brett – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
When organic students are asked to design a total synthesis of a molecule, they are often overwhelmed by the multitude of possible transformations. A decision tree is a useful tool to break complex problems up into simpler steps and scaffold the thinking process that many seasoned chemists take for granted. While many comprehensive resources…

Limpanuparb, Taweetham; Datta, Sopanant; Tawornparcha, Piyathida; Chinsukserm, Kridtin – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Working with peers is an integral part of a student's educational experience in most disciplines from preschool to tertiary education. For secondary and undergraduate chemistry education, it is inevitable that some laboratory sessions require students to work in groups for logistic and safety reasons. In this technology report, we demonstrate use…

The high Arctic is a remote place, where geoscientific research and teaching require expensive and logistically demanding expeditions to make use of the short field seasons. The absence of vegetation facilitates the use of modern photogrammetric techniques for the cost-effective generation of high-resolution digital outcrop models (DOMs). These…

Lee, Yewon; Paz, Susan De La – Exceptional Children, 2021
In the current study, we examined the effect of cognitive apprenticeship with contextualized language instruction on students with LD (SWLDs) and English learners' (ELs) ability to compose scientific explanations using a multiple-probe, multiple-baseline single-case design. Six middle school students (three in each subgroup) participated in ten…

Kuzmenko, Tatiana; Sharma, Ashwarya; Willette, Demian A. – American Biology Teacher, 2021
Hands-on, inquiry-based laboratory activities are excellent opportunities to introduce first-year undergraduate students to the lab environment and to catalyze new interest in topics they may not yet know or be as enthusiastic about studying. We describe a multisession introductory laboratory activity that couples the research areas of medicinal…
