Generating accurate inferences is crucial for the successful comprehension of text and is a skill that needs to be supported starting in the early grades. Teachers can support inference-making during read-aloud lessons by asking inferential questions and providing scaffolding and feedback on students' inference-making. In this article, we describe…

The paired-term biochemistry exam comprises five pairs of "unrelated" biochemical terms, where the collection of pairs, overall, is unique for each student. The student selects four of the pairs and answers three short essay questions about each, with a focus on how structure leads to function at the molecular level. Both…

The current study evaluated a procedure used to teach two children with autism to ask "why" questions maintained by causal information about an event. To increase the value of information as a reinforcer, the experimenter denied access to preferred items and did not provide a reason for the denial. Participants were taught to ask…

Posing problems in the mathematics classroom can enhance students' learning experiences and allow them to produce problems in a realistic context. Students do not always associate positive feelings with mathematics. Problem-posing activities can positively impact students' mathematical understanding while allowing for freedom of expression.…

Socratic seminars are active learning opportunities for students that create a classroom atmosphere building upon the foundational knowledge and experience of the students in the room. The teacher acts as a facilitator of learning, and students research, create questions, and converse to create a deeper understanding of learning. The purpose of…

Screening for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an essential early step in the identification process and inaccurate screening may lead to significant delays in the onset of treatment. Past research has highlighted discrepancies in the performance of ASD screening tools such as the Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ) among certain racial and…

Learning theories provide philosophically informed, basic principles for understanding the mechanisms through which people learn based on a combination of field or laboratory studies. Unfortunately, however, there are several clear conflicts between theoretical approaches and common methods in teaching. Consequently, key challenges among teachers…

Students in their first semester at university were asked to pose their own questions, known as quecture questions, for each learning topic. This was as part of their weekly preparation for flipped lectures on two parallel compulsory biology courses. Quecture questions are intended to engage students, particularly those with educational…

In the landscape of U.S. education, the widespread adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) offers a unique vantage point for researchers to better understand teacher-, school- and classroom-level factors that advance reform initiatives in science classrooms. Addressing a gap in current knowledge, our study probes how secondary…

Understanding the nature of science is conducive to establishing a correct view of science and understanding the connotation of science education and the nature of scientific inquiry. This study aims to contextualize the philosophy of science education from China's perspective. The value, goal, and content of science humanistic education,…

The study aims to develop teaching materials in the form of LKPD on ecology and biodiversity by using valid and practical trigger questions and to determine their effectiveness in increasing student motivation and learning outcomes. This research is a development research that uses the ADDIE development model which consists of five stages, namely:…
