Robert Murphy; Christopher Harris; Mingyu Feng – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
Background: The Framework for K-12 Science Education (NRC, 2012) and Next Generation Science Standards ([NGSS] NGSS Lead States, 2013) emphasize that all students from the earliest grades onward must have the opportunity to learn and actively participate in authentic science. In K-12 science instruction, this means that students should have the…

Haus, Jana Maria – Research in Science Education, 2020
This work uses new materialist perspectives (Barad 2007; Lenz Taguchi 2014; Rautio in "Children's Geographies," 11(4), 394-408, 2013) to examine an exploration of concepts as agents and the question how intra-action of human and non-human bodies lead to the investigation of scientific concepts, relying on an article by de Freitas and…

Markwick, Andy – Primary Science, 2020
Light is a topic that is often taught in year 3 (ages 7-8) in English schools, where children learn that light is needed for us to see, that it can be reflected from shiny surfaces and that shadows form when light is blocked by an object. They may also have some experience of how the size of shadows changes when the distance between a light source…

Welsh, Kate Muir; Brock, Cynthia H.; Robertson, Dana A.; Thrailkill, Laurie – Reading Teacher, 2020
The limited time available to teach content area subjects, given the intense demands for literacy and math instruction, is a common concern in U.S. elementary schools. Unfortunately, this is especially true in schools that serve students who are less economically advantaged. With time being a perennial concern for educators, integrated…

Ramon Mayor Martins; Christiane Gresse von Wangenheim; Marcelo Fernando Rauber; Jean Carlo Hauck – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2024
Although Machine Learning (ML) is found practically everywhere, few understand the technology behind it. This presents new challenges to extend computing education by including ML concepts in order to help students to understand its potential and limits and empowering them to become creators of intelligent solutions. Therefore, we developed an…

Endang Widi Winarni; Endina Putri Purwandari; Fadhli Omi Raharjo – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Scientific literacy must be developed to prepare the students for handling current challenges. This study purpose is to determine whether the use of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM) and Virtual Reality (VR) with the Project-based Learning (PjBL) model has an influence on scientific literacy in elementary students. The…

Grapin, Scott E.; Llosa, Lorena; Haas, Alison; Lee, Okhee – TESOL Journal, 2021
The latest content standards in U.S. K-12 education are academically rigorous for all students, including a fast-growing population of English learners (ELs). Because these standards are different from previous standards in terms of not only their rigor but also their theoretical underpinnings, enacting instruction aligned to the standards will…

McGill, Tara A. W.; Housman, Gail; Reiser, Brian J. – Science and Children, 2021
Using the practices in three-dimensional learning means that a classroom community of students working alongside the teacher identifies questions and debates how to make progress. Students should see each step of their work as addressing goals they have set. This article explores a strategy developed by researchers and teachers for supporting…
