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…

Marec, Claude-Émilie; Tessier, Christian; Langlois, Simon; Potvin, Patrice – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
This article focuses on the attitude of practicing teachers toward teaching science and technology (S&T). It reports the results of a study conducted with 110 late-elementary school teachers in order to assess their attitude at the end of a particular training intervention. The intervention was based on pairing teachers with pre-university…

Hacieminoglu, Esme – Education Quarterly Reviews, 2021
Investigating on what school- and student-level factors are related to pupils' learning orientations was the main purpose of this study. The study used a sample of 2917 middle school pupils across Turkey. The Test of Science Related Attitude, Learning Approach Questionnaire and the Achievement Motivation Questionnaire were utilised as data…

Lietard, Aude; Screen, Martin A.; Flindt, Diana L.; Jordan, Caleb J. C.; Robson, Jacquie M.; Verlet, Jan R. R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
A dual-function student-crafted instrument is described as part of a laboratory activity aimed to teach both the principles and practical aspects of absorption spectroscopy to secondary and introductory undergraduate students. Using minimal changes in an arrangement that is based on interlocking bricks and low-cost components, both a fluorometer…

Silverberg, Lee J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
In the Spring 2021 Organic Chemistry Lab class at Penn State Schuylkill, COVID-19 restrictions and uncertainty required a flexible plan. The first 4 weeks of 15 were fully remote, and videos of standard organic techniques were used, followed by an exam. In the next 5 weeks, some students were in the lab and some were remote. A document camera was…

Patterson Williams, Alexis; Gray, Salina – Science Teacher, 2021
Access to quality science and math instruction remains a civil rights and social justice issue as the scientific and technological divide widens (Tate 2001; Moses and Cobb 2001). Students without access to rigorous science instruction have been and will continue to be left behind. This inequality is salient for students in marginalized communities…
