Palermo, Martin; Kelly, Angela M.; Krakehl, Robert – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2022
The issue of science teacher turnover has been examined in many national studies, yet most educational policies related to teacher preparation and student performance are determined at the state level. There has been a lack of research that explores this issue in specific science domains. The present nonexperimental longitudinal study examined…

Raje, Sonali – Journal of Curriculum and Teaching, 2019
Cross-connections between the sciences and mathematics are emphasized through the Next Generation Science Standards and the Common Core State Standards in the United States. One topic that is a common bridge between math and science is the concept of measurement and unit conversions in the metric/English system. This article uses a mixed-methods…

Education Week, 2023
Schools experienced a massive expansion of technology over the past few years. They put in place 1-to-1 computing programs, are now using a record number of digital learning tools, and improved the availability of home-internet access for students. It was essentially a "fast-forward" for the evolution of digital learning in schools. But…

Timothy, Hoss G. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
There is a large body of research focused on tracking and ability grouping over the past decades (Oakes, 1985; Burris & Welner, 2008). Tracking, sometimes referred to as ability grouping, is defined as sorting or grouping students by ability into separate homogeneous classes based on achievement (Loveless, 2009) in order to shape the pace and…

Tessier, Jack T. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2014
College faculty have myriad choices of resources for their students when designing courses. The rising prices of textbooks and the availability of cell phones with internet access open the question of using cell phones in the classroom. In this study, I compared student learning in an ecology course between a semester in which a textbook was used…
