Drawing on a larger year-long ethnography at a public, urban, comprehensive high school in the Midwestern United States, this article describes the texts students composed in a co-taught sophomore (grade 10) humanities course combining social studies and English language arts. Bringing together sociocultural perspectives on literacy and…

Background: To accurately measure students' science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) career interest, researchers must get inside the 'black box' to understand students' conceptualizations of STEM careers. Aims: The aim of Study 1 was to explore whether students' conceptualizations of STEM included medical careers. The aim of Study…

Using LatCrit and QuantCrit, we examined the effect of school climate, ethnic identity, and self-esteem on GPA in a sample of 300 Latinx high school students. We found significant positive correlations between climate and GPA as well as self-esteem and GPA. Moreover, using structural equation modeling, we found self-esteem mediated the…

The rise of social media platforms and the subsequent lack of traditional gatekeeping mechanisms contribute to the multiplied spread of scientific misinformation. Particularly in these new media spaces, there is a rising need for science education in fostering a science media literacy that enables students to evaluate the credibility of scientific…

Purpose: This study aimed to explore students' perspectives and experiences of social and emotional learning (SEL) during physical education high school classes. Method: Using a case study design, focus group and individual interviews were implemented with 42 students. Based on the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning's SEL…

This study aimed to determine the effect of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) integrated Reading, Mind Mapping, and Sharing (RMS) on biological literacy and critical thinking skills in biotechnology material. This type of research is Quasi-Experimental with pre-test-post-test experiments and a control group design. The researcher conducted the research…

Creativity in biology education is a crucial aspect that enhances students' understanding of the subject. It consists of several indicators (fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration), which can also be used as measuring tools for creativity. This study aimed to determine the influence of the Problem-Oriented Project-Based Learning…

This paper describes the nature of home-school value discrepancies perceived by students, and tests associations between such value discrepancies and teacher-student relationships with student generational status as a moderator. Using a sample of 1,551 students from grades 10 and 11, chi-square tests and ANOVAs were used to describe the nature of…

This study investigated the impact of AICE (Advanced International Certificate of Education) English General Paper courses on the academic progress of 10th-grade students with disabilities, specifically their performance in Florida Standards Assessment (FSA) scores. The primary objective was to examine the correlation between ninth-grade FSA…

This study investigates 10th-grade students' experiences with physical education (PE) units informed by a pedagogical model called the practising model (PM). We apply a theoretical framework that integrates core concepts from phenomenology with empirical investigations of experience by focusing on structures of human existence, such as embodiment,…

This research is about developing stochastic worldview formation among high school students (grades 10 and 11) based on integrating scientific approaches, namely, information and technology, interdisciplinary, system, and activity approaches. Developing the structural components of a stochastic worldview, such as motivation--value relations,…

This study aims at describing students' difficulties in solving mathematical literacy problem level 3, level 4 and level 5. Qualitative research was used in this study. Participants of the research were 10 tenth-grade students randomly selected from a senior high school. The research was conducted at Senior High School 1 North Bengkulu. Data…

The purposes of the study were: (1) to investigate the effectiveness of deductive learning management with online exercises on grade 10 students learning achievement of mathematical relations; and (2) to investigate students' satisfaction with the learning management. The study was conducted in a one-group pretest-posttest design. The participants…

The Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) is a large-scale assessment of 15-year-old students' achievements in three broad areas: Reading, science, and mathematics. PISA results are widely used in discussions on various educational aspects, such as educational policy, quality of education, and teaching methods. Although PISA started…

The current work builds on research demonstrating the effectiveness of Productive Failure (PF) for learning. While the effectiveness of PF has been demonstrated for STEM learning, it has not yet been investigated whether PF is also beneficial for learning in non-STEM domains. Given this need to test PF for learning in domains other than…
