Xing, Hongjun; Zhai, Yanfang; Han, Sisi; Zhao, Yuping; Gong, Wenhui; Wang, Yuting; Han, Jing; Liu, Qiaoyi – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2022
Problem solving is considered one of the most critical competencies for life. However, many students may perform well in school yet cannot transfer the skills they learned in school to solve real-world problems, especially in science education. This study discusses the characteristics of the problem from the physics education perspective, based on…

Radke, Sarah C.; Vogel, Sara E.; Ma, Jasmine Y.; Hoadley, Christopher; Ascenzi-Moreno, Laura – Teachers College Record, 2022
Background/Context: Bi/multilingual students' STEM learning is better supported when educators leverage their language and cultural practices as resources, but STEM subject divisions have been historically constructed based on oppressive, dominant values and exclude the ways of knowing of nondominant groups. Truly promoting equity requires…
