Rogers, Ben – Primary Science, 2021
There is a tradition in primary classes of using rich authentic activities to teach science. The idea of pupils learning science through experiment and discovery is appealing. But this is not how children are taught in other subjects. When children learn to read, there are tiny steps, mastering each one before moving onto more challenging books.…

Lauren Esposito – English Journal, 2021
Authentic writing allows students to write for audiences other than the teacher for reasons that matter to them and that lead to changing how an audience thinks, feels, or acts. How can teachers prioritize authentic writing instruction and help students become successful writers? Lauren Esposito does this through improv, an art form that develops…

Julie Sarama; Douglas H. Clements; Arthur J. Baroody; Traci S. Kutaka; Pavel Chernyavskiy; Jackie Shi; Menglong Cong – AERA Open, 2021
We tested a specific theoretical assumption of a learning trajectories (LTs) approach to curriculum and teaching in the domain of early length measurement. Participating kindergartners (n = 189) were assigned to one of three conditions: LT, reverse-order (REV), or business-as-usual (BAU). LT and REV students received one-on-one instruction using…

Research on eyewitness identification often involves exposing participants to a simulated crime and later testing memory using a lineup. We conducted a systematic review showing that pre-event instructions, instructions given before event exposure, are rarely reported and those that are reported vary in the extent to which they warn participants…

King, Seth; Wang, Lanqi; Datchuk, Shawn M.; Rodgers, Derek B. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
Learning disabilities (LD) may affect a range of academic skills but are most often observed in reading. Researchers and policymakers increasingly recommend addressing reading difficulties encountered by students with LD using evidence-based practices, or interventions validated through multiple, high-quality research studies. A valuable tool in…

Mausbach, Ann; Kazmierczak, Kim Morrison – Phi Delta Kappan, 2023
Teaching is a complex endeavor, and the pandemic era stretched teachers to their limit, leaving them in need of supports that ignite both their passion and capacity. The typical top-down mandates found in many schools need to be replaced with processes that meet teachers where they are, helping them grow so their students can grow, too. Ann…

Rupnow, Rachel; Randazzo, Brooke – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
Definitions play an important role in mathematics by stipulating objects of interest to mathematicians in order to facilitate theory building. Nevertheless, limited research has examined how mathematicians approach writing definitions or the values of the mathematical community that are upheld through norms related to definition use and writing.…

Gibbons, Andrew; Cabral, Marta; Moffett, Chris – Policy Futures in Education, 2023
This article features the beginnings of the first volume of an encyclopaedia dedicated to the discussion of inter-galactic pedagogical matters. There is much to learn about within and before these times of inter-galactic change and so there is much to consider for those interested in, and committed to, thinking the pedagogical. PEDAGOGICA…

Kontorovich, Igor'; Li, Tianqing – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Research into didactics of calculus has maintained a long-standing interest in students' grasp of the relations between definite integrals and areas. This study comes to contribute to this line of research by unpacking how students use the concept of area to find definite integrals. Specifically, we focus on mathematical situations where the…

Reuter, Friederike – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
This paper introduces the term "explorative mathematical argumentation" (EMA), signifying a concept for describing and analysing learners' mathematical argumentation processes. Despite multiple recent empirical evidence for argumentation promoting learning in science education, still little is known about the development of early…

Stevens, Brinley N.; Jones, Steven R. – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2023
Recent research on integration has shown the importance of quantities-based meanings for integrals. However, this research body is still in need of detailed empirical accounts of "how" students develop such understandings across an entire unit on integration. This paper contributes by providing one such account, based on a…

Louca, Loucas T.; Zacharia, Zacharias C. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Despite its proven added value, modeling-based learning (MbL) in science is not commonly incorporated into the early grades. Our purpose in this descriptive case study was to enrich our understanding of how kindergarten children enact MbL by examining these children's constructed models and their accompanying oral descriptions of their models. For…

Bettina Henzler – Film Education Journal, 2023
Combining images, comparing and linking them in chains, clusters and texts is a cultural practice that was not invented with digitisation. It dates back to the nineteenth century, when the invention of photography facilitated the task of copying artworks and other cultural material, and putting them in different contexts. Later, with the invention…

Feng Liu; Huiqin Wu; Qianyuan Chen; Jie Gao; Guoqing Wang – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
DNA-functionalized gold nanoparticles (DNA-AuNPs) have become a popular science theme since their invention in 1990s. They impact our daily lives by playing key roles in rapidly identifying and quantifying important analytes, and are a well-suited chemistry course content for beginners of chemical research. While the salt-aging method represents…

Yu-Cheng Chen; Xin-Yu Chen; Zhi-Yuan Lin; Shan-Jing Yao; Dong-Qiang Lin – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The utilization of modeling tools has gained significant attention recently. These models typically involve a series of partial differential equations, which can be challenging for novice modelers. This paper presented an approach in practical teaching of modeling tools for ion-exchange chromatography with three parts: model introduction, model…
