Milanovic, Vesna D.; Trivic, Dragica D.; Tomasevic, Biljana I. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: In the previous decades many research papers and educational documents have emphasized the importance of the application of history of science in the science education of students. Consequently, chemistry teachers are expected to be familiar with the historical development of science and capable of incorporating historical contents in…

Ayfer Mutlu – Journal of Science Learning, 2023
This study investigates the effectiveness of using a REACT strategy instruction enriched with guided inquiry-based experiments to improve 7th-grade students' understanding of mixtures compared to conventional teacher-centered instruction. A convergent parallel mixed-method design was used, and 39 middle school students were divided into…

Milanovic, Vesna D.; Trivic, Dragica D. – Journal of Education for Teaching: International Research and Pedagogy, 2022
The aim of this paper was to investigate chemistry teachers' attitudes towards certain characteristics of the nature of science and history and philosophy of science, and the influence of those views on their teaching practice. The sample comprised 272 chemistry teachers. A questionnaire was used for data collection. Most teachers recognised some…

Liu, Pei Pei; McKinney, David; Lee, Alexandra A.; Schmidt, Jennifer A.; Marchand, Gwen C.; Linnenbrink-Garcia, Lisa – Cognition and Instruction, 2023
Mastery goal structures, which communicate value for developing deeper understanding, are an important classroom support for student motivation and engagement, especially in the context of science learning aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards. Prior research has identified key dimensions of goal structures, but a more nuanced…

Kuan-Fu Chen; Gwo-Jen Hwang; Mei-Rong Alice Chen – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Many studies have incorporated concept maps into digital games to enable learners to make connections between subject concepts in the game. However, most learners do not associate spontaneously with the thematic concepts in the game but need to be facilitated by effective scaffolding mechanisms to reconceptualize the learning process and content.…

Saba, Janan; Hel-Or, Hagit; Levy, Sharona T. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This paper presents the design and initial learning research with the MMM modeling platform, seeking to advance middle school students' learning through constructing computational models of complex physical and chemical systems. A complexity-based structure of an MMM interface is introduced. It suggests that a complex system can be described and…

Qian Huangfu; Qianmei He; Sisi Luo; Weilin Huang; Yahua Yang – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Video lectures which include the teachers' presence have become increasingly common. As teacher enthusiasm is a nonverbal cue in video lectures, more and more studies are focusing on this topic. However, little research has been carried out on the interactions between teacher enthusiasm and prior knowledge when learning from video…

Samon, Sigal; Levy, Sharona T. – Science & Education, 2021
How do different components of a learning environment contribute to learning in science? The study examines the contribution of laboratory experiments and computer model explorations to the learning of chemistry through a complex-systems approach. Specifically, junior high-school students' learning of chemistry via four different methods were…

Avci, Filiz; Kirbaslar, Fatma Gülay; Sesen, Burcin Acar – South African Journal of Education, 2019
In this study we aimed to analyse the effects of the Instructional Curriculum based on Cooperative Learning (ICBCL) prepared for the subjects, the orders of electrons and chemical properties, chemical bonds, compounds and their formulas, and mixtures on 7th grade learners' learning achievements, motivations to learn science, and their attitudes…

de Guzman, Florentino I. – Online Submission, 2023
The main purpose of this study is to determine the effect of using a new type of mnemonic device, utilizing dance steps in teaching Chemistry 7 in the retention rate of students on the properties of metals and non-metals. Different dance mnemonics corresponding to each property of the two types of elements were developed by the researcher. It was…

Cole, Merryn; Wilhelm, Jennifer; Vaught, Briana Marie-McKnight; Fish, Corinne; Fish, Hailey – Education Sciences, 2021
Research has shown that spatial ability plays a key role in understanding STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) content, including chemistry. Conservation of Matter (CoM) is an essential but challenging topic for chemistry students of all ages to grasp; it is often taught in a way where students memorize it but do not learn what…

Korkman, Nurullah; Metin, Mustafa – Journal of Science Learning, 2021
This study aims to specify the effect of inquiry-based collaborative learning and inquiry-based online collaborative learning methods on students' success and permanent learning. In this quantitative study, a pre-test post-test non-equalized control group model of quasi-experimental design has been used. The study's sample comprises 64 students,…

Araújo, J. L.; Morais, C.; Paiva, J. C. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
The active participation of citizens in scientific research, through citizen science, has been proven successful. However, knowledge on the potential of citizen science within formal chemistry learning, at the conceptual and procedural levels, remains insufficiently explored. We developed a citizen science project -- PVC: Perceiving the Value of…

Langbeheim, Elon; Ben-Eliyahu, Einat; Adadan, Emine; Akaygun, Sevil; Ramnarain, Umesh Dewnarain – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
Learning progressions (LPs) are novel models for the development of assessments in science education, that often use a scale to categorize students' levels of reasoning. Pictorial representations are important in chemistry teaching and learning, and also in LPs, but the differences between pictorial and verbal items in chemistry LPs is unclear. In…
