Rattanakit, Parawee – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
This paper describes an inquiry-based integrated laboratory project for green synthesis, characterization, and applications of silver and gold nanoparticles. In this project, students were able to choose their choice of plant extract as reducing and stabilizing agents, and the students also designed their own experiments. This course gave the…

Ling, Yizhou; Zhu, Pengfei; Yu, Jiayan – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Considering the individual differences in previous content knowledge, skill, and attitude, which types of learners are suitable for AR is a valuable but complex question. The study used quasi-experimental design, and divided 97 10th-grade students into two groups: traditional group (N = 48) and AR group (N = 49), who participated in 4-week organic…

In spring 2020, 916 elementary schools and 443 high schools were closed in Croatia due to the COVID-19 pandemic and remote teaching was introduced. This had an impact on physics teaching as an experimental subject. In addition to positive aspects concealed in new experiences and work perspectives, the sudden transition from conventional…

Arabacioglu, Sertaç; Okulu, Hasan Zühtü – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2021
Virtual solutions of museums can be notably used to promote distance learning activities by providing information about their collections. However, the effective use of this potential depends mainly on the exact alignment of the learning activities with the educational goals. For this purpose, this study focuses on the analysis of pre-service…

Haverly, Christa; Hossein, Batoul; Richards, Jennifer – Science and Children, 2021
The population of emergent bilingual students (EBs, or English Language Learners, ELLs) is growing steadily in the United States. One common approach to language instruction for EBs is to expose students to a lesson's content vocabulary before teaching the lesson to build students' word banks and background knowledge. An example of this is the…

Conceição, Teresa; Baptista, Mónica; Ponte, João Pedro – Education Sciences, 2021
Multiple representations, such as experimental data, schemas, tables, and graphs, are an essential resource in science teaching. However, their use in the classroom typically poses a challenge for preservice teachers. The aim of this research is to examine changes in the practices of a group of preservice teachers regarding the use of multiple…

Batir, Zafer; Sadi, Özlem – Journal of Inquiry Based Activities, 2021
The purpose of this study is to introduce a science module that was designed based on the ASSURE model and to present its implementation process. The study was conducted with the participation of 21 students attending a private school during the 2020-2021 academic year. The instructional plan focused on the concept of "Relationship between…

White Brahmia, Suzanne; Olsho, Alexis; Smith, Trevor I.; Boudreaux, Andrew; Eaton, Philip; Zimmerman, Charlotte – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
One desired outcome of introductory physics instruction is that students will develop facility with reasoning quantitatively about physical phenomena. Little research has been done regarding how students develop the algebraic concepts and skills involved in reasoning productively about physics quantities, which is different from either…

Rodemer, Marc; Eckhard, Julia; Graulich, Nicole; Bernholt, Sascha – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Research in science education agrees that one of the key challenges of learners in the discipline is certainly connecting domain-specific representations to the underlying concepts. One way of supporting students to make applicable connections is using purposefully designed highlighting techniques in multimedia instructions. In order to examine…

Long, Sam; Steller, Lewis; Suh, River – Science Teacher, 2021
This article outlines a thinking framework that any teacher can use to adapt curriculum through a lens of gender diversity. The authors illustrate the adaptation of several sample lessons to achieve three key outcomes: (1) to support and reduce harm to LGBTQ students; (2) to engage all students with inquiry into science in society; and (3) to…

Güven, Nalan Akkuzu; Uyulgan, Melis Arzu – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2021
The present investigation aims to analyze the knowledge levels and chemical representation levels of pre-service primary school teachers (PPSTs) on the experiment of distillation. For this purpose, the cross-sectional survey technique, one of the quantitative research designs was employed. The study was carried out at a Faculty of Education in the…

Understandings of the nature of scientific inquiry (NOSI), as opposed to engaging students in inquiry learning experiences, are included in science education reform documents around the world. However, little is known about what students have learned about NOSI during their pre-college school years. The purpose of this large-scale follow-up…
