Henriksen, Leif; And Others – European Journal of Teacher Education, 1996
A preservice physics/chemistry course was created that was inspired by constructivist thinking, that emphasized metacognition, and that integrated concepts of pedagogical and scientific topics by developing a teaching/learning cycle. Denmark's educational system and the implementation of the course are described. Preliminary evaluations suggest…

Swanson, C. Bruce – Teaching and Change, 1995
A high school teacher examined how using technology in his chemistry classroom would affect students' attitudes and motivation. Observations, interviews, and surveys indicated that students stayed on task longer, wanted to come in to finish labs, wanted to know how they could improve, and felt they understood certain concepts better.

Koballa, Thomas R., Jr.; Graber, Wolfgang; Coleman, Dava; Kemp, Andrew C. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 1999
Describes prospective teachers' conceptions of what one needs to know to be a chemistry teacher at the German gymnasium, and compares their conceptions with those emphasized by the university they attend. Hypothesizes that preservice teachers' conceptions suggest a nested model of knowledge needed for chemistry teaching. (Contains 30 references.)…
