The selection of a learning model is very crucial before the teacher carries out learning activities. Inquiry is a learning model that has existed for a long time and is recommended for use in learning activities. This study aims to map the results of studies related to inquiry learning in elementary schools. Bibliometrics is used as a method to…

This paper details an integrated inquiry-based mathematics and science method course for preservice teachers designed around STEM problem-based learning. It documents how problem-based learning (PBL) activities supported PSTs' envisioning of equitable approaches for diverse children. The overarching research question was: "How did preservice…

This paper reflects on the dynamic of co-developing knowledge within a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) project in the UK that set out to direct teenage and young adult Ambulatory Care. This is a service that offers cancer treatment that would have once required inpatient hospital stays. Working within a Community-of-Inquiry (CoI),…

Adolescent youth participating in a summer writing workshop drew from funds of community wealth to answer youth-generated inquiry questions about history, political participation, and equity. By turning to community members as expert sources of knowledge, students deepened their inquiry, their connections to the local community, and their…

This study examines a Technology, Pedagogy, Content Knowledge (TPACK) training framework for pre- and in-service mathematics teachers that enables them to experience inquiry-based learning as learners in a dynamic geometry environment that serves as a mathematics laboratory. We investigate the effect of this experience on the teachers' TPACK,…

Too often, traditional educational models silence students' voices and stifle their genius. "Pedagogies of Voice" invites educators at all levels to reinvent their schools and classrooms into spaces that celebrate student identity, nurture agency, awaken inquiry, and cultivate deep belonging for every child. "Pedagogies of…

This paper aims to investigate the systematic use of an inquiry-based learning approach in science by using inquiry boxes for preschool children. We prepared four thematic inquiry boxes for the areas of magnetism and buoyancy, separation of substances, weighing objects, and the investigation of substances. The research sample consisted of twenty…

This study examines how in-service teachers of multilingual learners (MLs) utilize teacher research to integrate and reflect on culturally and linguistically responsive pedagogy (CLRP). Through a 12-month professional development (PD) course, part of a broader initiative supported by a National Professional Development grant, teachers engaged in…

Assessing scientific inquiry competence (SIC) is essential for fostering students' inquiry skills, and the effectiveness of such assessments largely depends on teachers' assessment knowledge. Grounded in a four-dimensional framework of science teacher assessment knowledge, this study developed and validated a scenario-based diagnostic instrument…

Teacher education for early childhood education in Papua New Guinea (PNG) has been minimal in the past and this paper reports on workshops in which both quality mathematics education and computers were introduced to teachers in remote areas of PNG. With a lack of funding and time, the logistics of holding the workshops are noted. There were some…

Although there is a push to provide more student agency in science classrooms, teachers and students may become frustrated when inquiry activities and equipment do not work as planned--teachers because of the time crunch to "cover" topics and students because of the perceived lack of value in activities that are "off task." In…

The shift to online instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges for engaging preservice teachers in authentic, inquiry-based science learning. To address these challenges, place-based and inquiry-driven investigations emerged as promising strategies for supporting meaningful scientific engagement in remote settings.This…

This study embarked on the development of a comprehensive Junior High School Biological Inquiry Experiment Manual. This manual was utilized in a research initiative involving 30 students in the control group and an equal number in the experimental group. Rigorous data analysis techniques, encompassing mean values, standard deviations, paired…

This study aims to determine the effect of inquiry-based learning using the 5E instructional model on students' attitudes toward learning history. A quantitative quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a pre-post attitude questionnaire. A total of 149 tenth-grade students from two different schools in Bonga town participated in the…

Integrating science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) into classroom activities is a recurring and increasingly important topic. School-based agricultural education (SBAE) has historically been a relevant platform to integrate STEM concepts since it has strong ties to STEM industries, including horticulture, animal science, mechanization,…
