Giancarlo Perez-Flores – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Professional development (PD) is crucial for teachers to learn about new practices, technology, and improve self-efficacy to apply these skills. This sequential explanatory mixed-method study served to explore teachers' experiences with PD and using virtual labs in the classroom. First, in the quantitative phase of the study, a survey was…

Lindsay M. Griendling; Victoria J. VanUitert; Michael J. Kennedy; Wendy J. Rodgers; John Elwood Romig; Hannah Morris Mathews; Katherine N. Peeples – Grantee Submission, 2023
Student achievement disparities in inclusive science classrooms are concerning, as knowledge about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is increasingly important for upward mobility. When students identify with multiple marginalized sociocultural groups, progress becomes more troubling, as the interplay among these factors is…

Chaonan Liu – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Recent trends toward engaging undergraduate biology students in scientific investigations have shifted focus toward helping students understand and use scientific evidence. Instructors must promote students' evidentiary reasoning as they generate, use, and evaluate scientific evidence during the investigations. However, explicit guidance is needed…

Mpho Kenneth Madavha; Thuli Gladys Ntuli; Awelani Victor Mudau – Research in Social Sciences and Technology, 2024
Teaching physical sciences in English as the Language of Learning and Teaching (LOLT) has presented numerous challenges, particularly for learners who are not proficient in the language. The South African government is increasingly considering the use of indigenous languages as the medium of instruction for subjects such as physical sciences,…

Lundon Pinneo; Amy L. Benton – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2024
This study utilizes the meta-analysis method described by Timulak (Psychother Res 19(4-5):591-600, 2009) to create a more cohesive understanding of culturally responsive (CR) science teaching for in-service science teachers. Through the lens of Critical Race Theory, this study explores two questions: (1) What common themes emerge in studies…

Mohammad Reza Sarkar Arani; Yimin Gao; Linfeng Wang; Yoshiaki Shibata; Yanling Lin; Hiroyuki Kuno; Toshiya Chichibu – Prospects, 2024
This research is based on an approach that looks at cross-cultural research design as a "lens" for a deeper understanding of what goes on in the classroom. The research question is how a cross-cultural study like this one can lead to identifying the cultural script of teaching and help educators reflect on their practice. In this…

Saskia Grooters; Emma Zaal – Higher Education, Skills and Work-based Learning, 2024
Purpose: Work-Based Learning (WBL) is a form of practical learning that is still rare, yet upcoming in academic education. It differs mainly from classical approaches because work experience forms a key curriculum element. To enable WBL, a cultural change in academic landscape seems required, which depends on views and support of academic staff.…

K. Rende Mendoza; Carla C. Johnson – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
The teaching of science in K-12 schools has long been criticized as a process that propagates oppression for students who do not conform to entrenched norms of gender, sex, and sexuality. Academic standards, curriculum, and textbooks are rife with rhetoric that reinforces any deviation from cisheterosexuality as aberrant, unusual, or abnormal.…
