Direct linkLadachart, Luecha; Radchanet, Visit; Phothong, Wilawan – Journal of Experiential Education, 2023
Background: In countries that endorse science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education as an educational movement, design-based learning is deemed a pedagogical approach. Purpose: Because the integration of the engineering design process and scientific investigation has been an issue in science education, this study examined the…

Morabito, Nancy P. – Science Educator, 2018
Increasing emphasis on students' understanding of the practices of science and engineering necessitates that teachers themselves possess a strong understanding of these practices. Unfortunately, a teacher's potentially limited engagement in science and engineering practices throughout his or her own education may impede his or her understanding of…

Kalianne L. Neumann; Susan L. Stansberry; Crystal L. Del Rosso; Stacey S. Welch; Toni A. Ivey – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2021
Moonshot is the redesign of NASA's High School Aerospace Scholars (HAS), which traditionally engaged Texas high school juniors in a 16-week online course for credit and an intense week-long onsite experience working in teams with experts at NASA's Johnson Space Center (JSC). Due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), our challenge was to design,…

Burgin, Stephen R.; McConnell, William J.; Flowers, Alonzo M., III – International Journal of Science Education, 2015
This study describes an investigation of a research apprenticeship program that we developed for diverse high-school students often underrepresented in similar programs and in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) professions. Through the apprenticeship program, students spent 2 weeks in the summer engaged in biofuels-related research…
