Josephine C. Meyer; Gina Passante; Bethany Wilcox – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Driven in large part by the National Quantum Initiative Act of 2018, quantum information science (QIS) coursework and degree programs are rapidly spreading across U.S. institutions. Yet prior work suggests that access to quantum workforce education is unequally distributed, disproportionately benefiting students at private research-focused…

Taylor, Jonte' C.; Hwang, Jiwon; Rizzo, Karen L.; Hill, Doris Adams – Science Educator, 2020
Broad scientific concepts are vital to individual wellbeing as a function of daily living skills. Science connects how individuals interact with the environment and how they interpret those interactions (Browder et al, 2007). According to the National Assessment of Education Progress, students with disabilities score significantly lower than…

Furtak, Erin Marie – Teachers College Press, 2023
The current wave of science education reforms emphasizes more equitable opportunities for students as they learn disciplinary core ideas and apply crosscutting concepts by engaging in the practices of scientists. Formative assessment--the assessment teachers and students conduct while learning is in progress--also needs to shift to support this…

Lannan, Amanda; Chini, Jacquelyn J.; Scanlon, Erin – Physics Teacher, 2021
All students deserve access to effective, equitable physics education. Postsecondary faculty have been shown to be unprepared to support students with disabilities in their classes, and popular, research-based introductory physics curricula do not adequately plan for variations in learners' needs, abilities, and interests. It is urgent to address…

Nancy Kober – National Academies Press, 2023
Research shows that that children learn science and engineering subjects best by engaging from an early age in the kinds of practices used by real scientists and engineers. By doing science and engineering, children not only develop and refine their understanding of the core ideas and crosscutting concepts of these disciplines, but can also be…
