Despite the growing presence of students as partners (SAP) in education research and the overlap of goals with learning assistant (LA) programs, there is little research done on pedagogy- and curriculum-focused student partnerships that involve LAs. LAs have expertise as both teachers and learners, so why not leverage this expertise to improve the…

Suryadi, Ahmad; Kusairi, Sentot – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2021
Every student needs feedback to understand a scientific concept deeply. However, with a large number of students in each class, individual feedback is a challenge for teachers in Indonesia. Although there have been many studies conducted to maximize the giving of personal feedback, studies conducted by ensuring the consistency of a student's…

Stewart, John; Drury, Byron; Wells, James; Adair, Aaron; Henderson, Rachel; Ma, Yunfei; Perez-Lemonche, Ángel; Pritchard, David – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
This study reports an analysis of the Force Concept Inventory (FCI) using item response curves (IRC)--the fraction of students selecting each response to an item as a function of their total score. Three large samples (N = 9606, 4360, and 1439) of calculus-based physics students were analyzed. These were drawn from three land-grant institutions…

Siersma, Pier T.; Pol, Henk J.; van Joolingen, Wouter R.; Visscher, Adrie J. – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
In this study, the conceptions of pre-university level secondary students with respect to radiation and radioactivity were investigated. A literature review determined what was already known about secondary school students' conceptions that differ from scientific theory, regarding radiation and radioactivity. Next, 12 Dutch students and their…

Korur, Fikret; Yerdelen-Damar, Sevda; Saglam, Havva – Research in Learning Technology, 2021
In this study, the Integrated Scale of Technology Use in Physics (ISTUP) was developed to determine students' frequency of technology use, their perceptions about the effects of technology use on physics interest and achievement, and their preferences of technological tools and applications in learning physics. The scale was administered two…

Abate, Tsedeke; Michael, Kassa; Angell, Carl – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
The purpose of this study was to explore grade eight students' views in terms of different scientific reasoning progress levels. To explore students' views, phenomenographic study was used. The qualitative analysis of students' interviews elicited three major themes of students' views about scientific reasoning progress levels: naïve, mixed, and…

Mbonyiryivuze, Agnes; Yadav, Lakhan Lal; Amadalo, Maurice Musasia – International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education, 2021
This study investigated students' attitudes towards physics in Nine Year Basic Education (9YBE) in Rwanda. Data were collected from 380 students from Kayonza and Gasabo Districts using a physics attitudes test. Findings illustrated that more than a quarter of participants felt that learning physics is boring. About 39% think that the subject of…

Mercado, Justine C. – Science Education International, 2021
Online learning keeps on growing and being explored during this pandemic. Most of the tertiary institutions here in the Philippines have shifted from face-to-face to online instructions in all courses including physics subjects. The conduct of physics classes through virtual classrooms has its advantages and presents some challenges that are why…

Siddiq, Nur Abdillah – Physics Education, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced educational institutions to adjust their learning process to distance education or online learning. This paper explains how to teach optics during the COVID-19 pandemic by implementing project-based learning that can be supervised online. Students are instructed to design, characterize, and optimize droplet lenses…

Lee, Sungeun; Choi, Young-il; Kim, Sung-Won – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
The purpose of this study is to find a way to improve students' performance to solve physics problems by inducing changes in emotion via immediate feedback. To this end, in 2016, we conducted an experiment, doing an interview and survey consecutively. The participants were five second-year male students attending a private high school in Seoul,…

Upadyaya, Katja; Cumsille, Patricio; Avalos, Beatrice; Araneda, Sebastian; Lavonen, Jari; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – Journal of Educational Research, 2021
Situational engagement is a key element in promoting students' maintained interest and focused attention in learning. Most research on students engagement has been variable-centered, and only few studies have examined situational patterns of student engagement. The present study used person-oriented approach (e.g., latent profile analysis with…
