Australian and New Zealand universities commenced a new academic year in February/March 2020 largely with "business as usual." The subsequent Covid-19 pandemic imposed unexpected disruptions to anatomical educational practice. Rapid change occurred due to government-imposed physical distancing regulations from March 2020 that…

Yanan Zhang; Ying Zhan; Zhi Hong Wan; Daner Sun – International Journal of Science Education, 2024
Formative assessment has been long emphasised as a powerful means for enhancing science learning. However, there is still a lack of research to investigate the impacts of formative assessment on both students' motivational beliefs and behaviours in science learning. This study examined such impacts using data from six Western and six East Asian…

Moeed, Azra; Anderson, Dayle; Rofe, Craig; Bartholomew, Rex – Teaching and Learning Research Initiative, 2016
The science learning area of the "New Zealand Curriculum" (NZC) (Ministry of Education, 2007) requires students to learn about "features of scientific knowledge and the processes by which it is developed" and "carry out science investigations using a variety of approaches." Investigations are mostly, but not always,…

Howie, Jess; Kara, Hinerangi – New Review of Academic Librarianship, 2022
Researcher-facing librarians in New Zealand are providing guidance across more of the research lifecycle than ever before in response to an increasingly complex scholarly ecosystem. This research explored the development of research support through survey responses from all eight New Zealand University Libraries. From the responses it was possible…

Designing Mobile Learning with Education outside the Classroom to Enhance Marine Ecological Literacy
Eames, Chris; Aguayo, Claudio – Teaching and Learning Research Initiative, 2019
The aim of this study was to explore how purposeful educational design using mobile learning might enable integration of classroom and outside of classroom teaching and learning. It was based on a marine reserves learning experience at a primary school which connected with a marine science and conservation visitor centre. The researchers'…

Eppler, Elisabeth; Serowy, Steffen; Link, Karl; Filgueira, Luis – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2018
Profound anatomical knowledge is the basis for modern demands in medicine and surgery, but many countries worldwide including Australia and New Zealand have discontinued offering dissection courses to medical and dental students during the past decades. This educational project done in Australia aimed at enhancing basic and advanced anatomy…

Hipkins, Rosemary; Tolbert, Sara; Cowie, Bronwen; Waiti, Pauline – New Zealand Council for Educational Research, 2022
Science education has an important role to play in supporting our young people to meet the complex challenges of the modern age. Students need a curriculum that can prepare them to work collaboratively, competently and confidently to address the wicked "glocal" problems of our time. Rangatahi themselves recognise this - those involved in…

Cossham, Amanda; Irvine, Jan – Journal of Education for Library and Information Science, 2021
This article presents an illustrative and instrumental case study of participatory design and co-production as used in curriculum renewal for a bachelor's degree in library and information studies (LIS). It outlines the process of constant review and reflection to improve the next round of development. The authors use the lenses of participatory…

Wald, Navé; Harland, Tony – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2021
This article examines how much 'complex knowledge' is assessed during a university degree and the extent to which a student has the opportunity to develop this. We conceptualise complex knowledge as any type of assessment that requires students to create and evaluate knowledge, and for which they may receive formative feedback. Such activities are…

Buntting, Cathy; Cowie, Bronwen – Curriculum Matters, 2017
This article draws primarily on a policy discussion hosted by the New Zealand Association of Research in Education's (NZARE) Science Special Interest Group at the 2016 national conference, arguing that an ecosystem view of science education is a useful metaphor when considering both what is being done to implement the vision for science education…

Fergusson, Anna; Pfannkuch, Maxine – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2022
The advent of data science has led to statistics education researchers re-thinking and expanding their ideas about tools for teaching statistical modeling, such as the use of code-driven tools at the secondary school level. Methods for statistical inference, such as the randomization test, are typically taught within secondary school classrooms…

Trask, Suzanne; Cowie, Bronwen – Curriculum Journal, 2022
Variability in education systems is a given. Variability has at once positive and negative implications for the main goal of education which is accelerating learning across diverse contexts and for all learners. In this article, we explain and employ a tight-loose framing to understand the scope for variability within an education system. A…

Carrie Vander Zwaag – Assessment Matters, 2022
Integrated STEAM education (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) has been shown to effectively foster global competencies as well as school and societal engagement for 21st century learners of diverse backgrounds. However, facilitating quality STEAM teaching and learning can be challenging for teachers, particularly in the area…

Ualesi, Yvonne; Ward, Gillian – Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 2018
Concern has been raised globally that a lack of interest by teachers towards teaching science has a negative impact on the children they teach. While attention has been paid to the teacher as a contributing factor to students' attitudes, less has been written about the attitudes of teachers. To bridge this gap, the current study examines six Year…
