Although understandings of scientific inquiry (as opposed to conducting inquiry) are included in science education reform documents around the world, little is known about what students have learned about inquiry during their elementary school years. This is partially due to the lack of any assessment instrument to measure understandings about…

Cisel, Matthieu; Barbier, Charlotte – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Student-Question-Based Inquiry (SQBI) represents a form of inquiry where pupils design their research questions, hypotheses, and protocols. The "Savanturiers" program aims at helping teachers overcome their potential apprehension of SQBI by matching hundreds of elementary and middle school teachers with mentors. These mentors are usually…

Moro, Luciana; Mortimer, Eduardo F.; Tiberghien, Andrée – Classroom Discourse, 2020
The aim of this study is to better understand how teachers use various embodied semiotic modes -- speech, gestures, gaze, and proxemics -- when they present scientific content to the entire class. To analyse the multimodal practices of these teachers, we integrated the social semiotic theory of multimodality and the joint action theory in…

Lescarret, Colin; Magnier, Julien; Le Floch, Valérie; Sakdavong, Jean-Christophe; Boucheix, Jean-Michel; Tricot, André; Amadieu, Franck – Journal for the Study of Education and Development, 2023
The purpose of this study was to better understand how middle school students consider the source of information when processing videos with conflicting information. To this end, we exposed a sample of seventh-graders to a series of videos in which two interviewees expressed divergent positions on a socioscientific issue ('Will organic farming be…

The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 2015 is the sixth administration of this international comparative study since 1995 when first administered. TIMSS is used to compare over time the mathematics and science knowledge and skills of fourth- and eighth-graders. TIMSS is designed to align broadly with mathematics and…

Barrue, Catherine; Albe, Virginie – Science & Education, 2013
The educative goal of citizenship education through science education converges to the declared purpose of the SSI research movement. Socioscientific issues formulated in science education research covering topics as biotechnology, environmental issues, sustainable development, energy choices, have been introduced in French Middle Schools. But…

Radtka, Catherine – Science & Education, 2015
This paper examines physics and mathematics textbooks published in France at the end of the 1950s and at the beginning of the 1960s for children aged 11-15 years old. It argues that at this "middle school" level, textbooks contributed to shape cultural representations of both disciplines and their mutual boundaries through their contents…

Toczek, Marie-Christine; Morge, Ludovic – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2009
We conducted an experimental study to assess the effects of two physics-learning situations that differed in the type of teacher-student interactions that took place: evaluative or co-constructive. As found in various studies on physics teaching and social psychology, the results showed that co-constructive interactions generated a more effective…

Dal, Burçkin – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2007
Students hold a surprising number of ideas about the Earth's structure and process. This paper begins with a discussion on the nature of understanding in the conceptually confined domain of geosciences. There then follows a report on a study of the ideas about a range of concepts relating to "crystals", "volcanoes",…

Briot, Marika; Chifflet, Pierre – European Physical Education Review, 2004
The objective of this study was to apply the sociological model of action logics to investigate the ways in which PE teams function. The chosen framework was a combination of the action logic models of Dubet (1994) and Amblard et al. (1996). The former enabled us to distinguish between integrating, strategic and distinctive logics, the latter…
