Liat Rahmian; Yotam Hod; Guangji Yuan; Jianwei Zhang – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
In this research, we examine learning within doubly authentic learning designs, which combine the sociocultural perspective that classrooms should be congruent with professional practices, along with a humanistic perspective that suggests students' identities should be aligned with what they inquire about in class. Our work is situated in a…

Kym Fry; Judith Hillman; Rhonda Horne; Elizabeth Rasmussen – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
The revised Australian curriculum presents a new emphasis in primary schools on the process of Mathematical Modelling. A modelling focus brings close attention to confidence and capability with a potentially new problem-solving process, associated language, and pedagogical processes. This paper presents a Year 4 classroom modelling experience that…

Emden, Markus – Science & Education, 2021
There are some crucial critiques on "scientific inquiry" and "the" Scientific Method in current science education. Recent research literature is replete with arguments against inquiry's legitimacy to be included in science classes, and it has even been abandoned from the Next "Generation Science Standards." Critics of…

Beth Archer-Kuhn; Natalie Beltrano; Juyan Wang; Sahar Esmaeili – Journal of Teaching in Social Work, 2025
This paper reflects the results from a 3-year quantitative study in higher education on inquiry-based learning (IBL). Utilizing primary data collection in a quasi-experimental survey, we examined the impact of IBL on six cohorts of undergraduate students. We aimed to answer our main research question: Can IBL be an effective pedagogy that helps…

Sarah Hohrath; Sandra Aßmann; Heiko Krabbe; Maria Opfermann – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Non-formal learning settings like out-of-school labs provide students with insights into authentic learning situations. For example, in physics, students are engaged in experimenting as an authentic method. However, increasing the authenticity in experimentation can lead to overwhelming demands and hinder concept development and does not even need…

Böschl, Florian; Forbes, Cory; Lange-Schubert, Kim – Science Education, 2023
Science education reform efforts have emphasized the incorporation of more authentic and meaningful scientific practices into formal learning environments. With this focus on practices, such as scientific modeling, a powerful tool for sense-making and reasoning, comes a need to observe and understand if and how it is actually occurring,…

Ying-Chih Chen; Jongchan Park; Jamie G. Rapkiewcz – American Biology Teacher, 2024
Productive struggle is a process in which students expend effort to grapple with perplexing problems and make sense of something that is not immediately apparent and beyond their current level of understanding and capacity. The experience encourages students to reflect on and restructure their existing knowledge toward a new understanding of…

Coughlan, Tim – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
Open data has potential value as a material for use in learning activities. However, approaches to harnessing this are not well understood or in mainstream use in education. In this research, early adopters from a diverse range of educational projects and teaching settings were interviewed to explore their rationale for using open data in…

Shafi, Adeela Ahmed; Middleton, Tristan; Jones, Chris – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2023
Children and young people who come into conflict with the law tend to be disengaged with education and learning. This paper reports on research from an EU Erasmus+ project in Spain, Italy, Germany and the UK. The research focused on the impact of Authentic Inquiry (AI) on learners in custodial or youth justice settings and the impact on educators…

Cirkony, Connie – International Journal of Science Education, 2023
To promote scientific literacy in school science, students need to learn key concepts in science, along with the nature of scientific knowledge and how it is generated. Ideally, this learning mirrors authentic scientific inquiry through student engagement in three key epistemic practices: flexibility and creativity, knowledge construction, and…

Medvide, Mary Beth – Global Education Review, 2021
Work-based learning programs in the United States are designed to prepare adolescents for their first jobs and to develop the soft skills to be successful in in the classroom or the workplace. Historically these programs have neglected how work, education, and training in the local context are connected to issues on national and international…

Kristin Zorn; Kym Fry; Kevin Larkin; Peter Grootenboer – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
Problems presented in mathematics classrooms often focus on routine tasks with students practicing mathematical techniques demonstrated by the teacher. However, this does not reflect the problem-solving process in the real world, and students often find it difficult to connect school mathematics with authentic contexts. This paper discusses…

Yang Wang; Yating Zhang – Distance Education, 2024
With the development of technology and the normalization of COVID-19 pandemic prevention and control, asynchronous online learning is becoming popular. However, it is still to be explored on how to enhance students' learning engagement and knowledge construction. Based on this, we used content analysis to explore the roles of teaching strategies…

James DiFranco – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The recent Next Generation Science Standards recommend students have increased opportunities engaging in modeling work scientists do. Science classroom tasks include simple inquiry compared to more complex authentic inquiry that closely resembles authentic science. Science fair participation presents students with the opportunity to engage in…

Maha Zewail-Foote; Marti´n Gonzalez – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
In an effort to improve student learning, authentic research experiences have been incorporated into introductory laboratory courses as a means to teach students scientific inquiry and engage them in the scientific process. Here, we describe the development and implementation of a novel undergraduate research-based laboratory course for first-year…
