Parisi, Elizabeth; Masia, Giovanna; Reynolds, Cynthia; Richards, A. J. – Physics Teacher, 2023
A learner's perception of what a career in physics is like has a major impact on their decision to pursue physics professionally. This decision can also be influenced by a high school student's awareness of issues concerning diversity within the physics community. We surveyed current high school physics students and investigated their perception…

Entress, Cole – Science & Education, 2023
Biology teachers hope to teach their students more than, say, the steps of aerobic respiration. They want to help students see the living world around them in new and deeper ways. Unfortunately, the living world students encounter every day--in schoolyards and forest preserves, pets and potted plants, soil fungus and sourdough bread--is too rarely…

Joshua M. Heyes; Berry Billingsley – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
In the period following a global pandemic, the promotion of health and wellbeing is a priority area for schools. This accompanies growing calls for health and wellbeing education to be delivered through a whole-child/whole-school approach that connects across subject areas. While it may be clear to most people that a purely scientific sexuality…

Blake Touchet; Diane Wright; Lin Andrews – Research Issues in Contemporary Education, 2024
Over the course of a two-year curriculum field test study that implemented a curriculum-based professional learning framework, we investigated the factors that influenced teachers' willingness and ability to implement NGSS-aligned, phenomenon-based storylines for teaching the nature of science, evolution, and climate change. Through qualitative…

Rosenberg, Joshua M.; Schultheis, Elizabeth H.; Kjelvik, Melissa K.; Reedy, Aaron; Sultana, Omiya – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
With improving technology and monitoring efforts, the availability of scientific data is rapidly expanding. The tools that scientists and engineers use to analyse data are changing in response. At the same time, science education standards have shifted to emphasize the importance of students making sense of data in science classrooms. However, it…

Tenzin, Sherab; Won, Mihye; Treagust, David – Science Teacher, 2022
Science diagrams are an integral part of science because they are an important means of conveying and visualizing abstract science content. In recent years, researchers have demonstrated the educational benefits of encouraging students to draw their own conceptual diagrams, rather than focusing on interpreting diagrams given to them. To help…

Ladachart, Ladapa; Phothong, Wilawan; Phornprasert, Wannakorn; Suaklay, Narissara; Ladachart, Luecha – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2022
Inquiry-based instruction has been promoted worldwide to achieve scientific literacy among citizens. This kind of reform-based instruction requires science teachers to have specialized knowledge called pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) for teaching science, which includes a set of knowledge and beliefs. Orientations to teaching science are…

Vasconcelos, Lucas; Kim, ChanMin – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2022
National and state science learning standards urge K-12 educators to offer authentic Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics learning experiences. One way to fulfill this goal is to prepare preservice science teachers to integrate computer science skills, such as coding, into science education learning contexts that can benefit from it.…

Wiley, K'Netha – ProQuest LLC, 2022
With increased technology use in classrooms, teachers must design lessons that integrate technology use and stimulate cognitive processing. This dissertation explored science teachers' perceptions of integrating technology-based instruction on cognitive processing in secondary school science. It is vital to understand the neuroscience behind…

Pollard, Benjamin; Hobbs, Robert; Henderson, Rachel; Caballero, Marcos D.; Lewandowski, H. J. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
Introductory physics lab courses serve as the starting point for students to learn and experience experimental physics at the undergraduate level. They often focus on measurement uncertainty, an essential topic for practicing physicists and a foundation for more advanced lab learning. As such, measurement uncertainty has been a focus when studying…

Adam Masri; Tracey Ollis; Russell Tytler – Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education, 2025
The gender gap in physics in Australian secondary schools remains a significant issue. This study aims to address this problem by examining how physics teachers perceive girls' participation in physics, and how these perceptions influence their approach to gender issues and their potential impact on girls' physics identity. The study uses a…

Gencer, Sinem; Turan-Oluk, Nurcan; Kadayifçi, Hakki; Yalçin Çelik, Ayse – Shanlax International Journal of Education, 2023
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, mandatory changes were required in the field of education, as in many other fields. One of these fields is a teacher training programme, which includes teaching practice. It has become of great importance that pre-service science teachers, who frequently include experiments in their teaching practices in face-to-face…

New Aspects of Working with Scientific Data: A Study with Practicing Scientists and Science Teachers
Jin, Hui; Hokayem, Hayat; Cisterna, Dante – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: New technology and increased collaboration have revolutionized how scientists work with data. This creates a need to identify new aspects of working with scientific data that are important for K-12 students to learn. Purpose: To address this need, we conducted a study with practicing scientists and K-12 science teachers. The purpose of…
