Khishfe, Rola – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The study investigated how explicit instruction of argumentation-in the context of socioscientific issues (SSI)- and explicit instruction of NOS, compared with explicit instruction of argumentation only, can develop grade 10 students' argumentation skills and NOS conceptions. Participants were 36 grade 10 students enrolled in two sections that…

Ageitos, Noa; Puig, Blanca – Journal of Biological Education, 2021
Though argumentation is a key component of scientific knowledge construction practices, it rarely occurs in classrooms worldwide. Moreover, related literature in the context of genetics and evolution learning primarily addresses them separately. In contrast, this paper is part of broader research on genetics and evolution instruction taught…

Hugerat, Muhamad; Kortam, Naji; Kassom, Fadda; Algamal, Shafea; Asli, Sare – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
Classroom climate and motivation plays a major role in the teaching-learning process. In this study, we proposed a new teaching method (PBL-JD). "Problem-Based Learning" (PBL)-Jigsaw Discussion (JD) (PBL-JD) is a student-centered teaching methodology applied in science education; it ensures that the students are actively involved…

Ahamad, Adri Nirwan; Samsudin, Mohd Ali; Ismail, Mohd Erfy; Ahmad, Nur Jahan – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
The complexity of physics concepts in online learning environment probably will only benefit certain group of students. Thus, there are suggestions that the approach of delivering physics concepts in online learning environment shoud be conducted in various ways. The purposed of research was to investigate the effect of online multiple…

Fang, Su-Chi – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2021
Inquiry-based science instruction has been advocated for decades. However, the implementation of inquiry teaching and learning in everyday classrooms is rather limited due to various factors. Previous research investigated implementations of inquiry-based teaching at the activity level with self-reported methods. However, little is known about how…

Ramnarain, Umesh; Dlamini, Thandiwe; Bansal, Garima; Dhurumraj, Thasmai – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
This study explored five Life Sciences teachers' practices of formative assessment when enacting an inquiry-based pedagogy. The ESRU cycle (teacher "Elicits" a response; the Student responds; the teacher "Recognises" the student's response; and then "Uses" the information collected to support student learning) was…

Mbhiza, Hlamulo W. – Pythagoras, 2022
Examples that teachers choose and use are fundamental to what mathematics is taught and learned, and what opportunities for learning are created in mathematics classrooms. This qualitative multiple case study, using Sfard's commognitive theory, draws attention to mathematics teachers' classroom practices during functions lessons which is…

Smit, Julie; Lesley, Mellinee; Baker-Beach, Whitney; Stewart, Elizabeth – Journal of Research in Reading, 2022
Background: This case study examined the consequences of a literacy initiative designed to improve writing instruction for a high school under pressure to increase standardised test scores or face government oversight. Realities of underperforming schools, such as interruptions to instructional time, a focus on formulaic essay writing and…

Vandermeulen, Nina; Van Steendam, Elke; De Maeyer, Sven; Rijlaarsdam, Gert – Written Communication, 2023
This intervention study aimed to test the effect of writing process feedback. Sixty-five Grade 10 students received a personal report based on keystroke logging data, including information on several writing process aspects. Participants compared their writing process to exemplar processes of equally scoring (position-setting condition) or…

Tursucu, Süleyman; Spandaw, Jeroen; de Vries, Marc J. – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
Mathematics is of major importance in science subjects. Unfortunately, students struggle with applying mathematics in science subjects, especially physics. In this qualitative study we demonstrate that transfer of algebraic skills from mathematics in physics class can be improved by using pre-knowledge effectively. We designed shift-problems…

Leshota, Moneoang – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
This paper examines how seven teachers working in contexts of limited resources used the prescribed textbook for teaching, and the kinds of teacher-textbook relationships forged in the interactions. The study employs a sociocultural perspective to explore the processes by which teachers mobilise the affordances of the textbook to the teacher's…

Guo, Jian-Peng; Yang, Ling-Yan; Ding, Yi – Research in Science Education, 2019
Researchers have consistently demonstrated that studying multiple examples is more effective than studying one example because comparing multiple examples can promote schema construction and facilitate discernment of critical aspects. Teachers, however, are usually absent from those self-led text-based studies. In this experimental study, a…
