Candas, Bahar; Altun, Taner – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2023
Innovative activities carried out during school laboratory sessions include 'flipped learning' (FL), which is an interactive learning environment where the teacher guides students learn individually. This study examined the impact of the adoption of the FL approach on the academic performance of 2nd year science student teachers enrolled in the…

Kara, Filiz – Journal of Inquiry Based Activities, 2023
In the present research, the "DNA Model with Clothespins" activity was designed to teach the subjects of nucleotide, DNA, and DNA replication, which are abstract subjects of science. The aim of the research, which was carried out with 20 students in 8th grade, was to examine the effects of the activity on students' achievement on the…

Connor, Megan C.; Rocabado, Guizella A.; Raker, Jeffrey R. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2023
Over a decade has passed since faculty members' goals for the undergraduate chemistry instructional laboratory were first investigated on a large, national scale in the United States. This study revisits these goals, using data from a 2022 national survey of chemistry faculty members in the United States (n = 521) to investigate current…

Buggé, Danielle; Rutberg, Joshua; Ahmed, Sheehan H.; Zisk, Robert; Jammula, Diane – Physics Education, 2023
The Investigative Science Learning Environment (ISLE) approach to learning and teaching holds as one of its core tenets that students should learn physics by engaging in the same processes through which physicists develop new knowledge. One key skill necessary for this is hypothetico-deductive reasoning. In this study, we explored how the…

Oyama, Hiroshi; Nabeshima, Yuka; Morimoto, Koichi; Sugimura, Yukio – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
Coagulation is an important process in the context of water purification; and the seed protein of the moringa tree ("Moringa oleifera") is a remarkably effective coagulant. The laboratory course described here is designed to provide high-school students with a stepwise, hands-on experience in investigating the protein-rich coagulant…

Hakan Türkmen; Fazilet Zenciroglu – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2023
The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between the learning styles of classroom students in the force and energy unit and their scientific process skills. In the study, pre-test and post-test weak experimental design without a control group was used. The research was carried out in 2 different secondary schools in the central district…

Gidele Gito Gizaw; Solomon Sorsa Sota – Science Education International, 2023
This paper aims to review and assess the strategies available in literature to improve the practices of science process skills (SPS) among students. SPS encompasses the mental and physical activities of students in collecting and organizing information and then using the information to make predictions, explain phenomena, solve problems,…

Nicole Vick; Nina Blanton – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Educators have struggled with maintaining student engagement in science, especially as students transition from primary to middle school and upper grades (Vedder-Weiss & Fortus, 2012). A recent push in science education has been the adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), released in 2013, whose development was guided by…

Joana F. C. Silva; Ma´rio T. S. Rosado; Teresa M. R. Maria; Pedro S. Pereira Silva; Manuela Ramos Silva; M. Ermelinda S. Euse´bio – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The concept of co-amorphous systems is introduced in an integrated laboratory experiment, designed for advanced chemistry students, using solvent-free, environmentally friendly mechanochemistry. The dual-drug naproxen-cimetidine co-amorphous system (NPX-CIM) is investigated as an example of the emergent field of medicinal mechanochemistry.…

Sudripet Sharma; Tharique N. Ansari; Karanjeet Kaur; Andrea Gorce; Wilfried M. Braje; Sachin Handa – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Chemistry in water is an emerging field that fulfills the fifth principle of green chemistry: replacing toxic organic solvents with their benign counterparts. Although some pharmaceutical industries have developed and adopted chemistry in water, its implementation in teaching laboratories is still limited. Therefore, we have designed an experiment…

Tovar-Gálvez, Julio César – Science Education, 2023
Intercultural teaching practices for science education (ITPSE) are suitable to support science teachers in bringing cultural inclusion into their classrooms. The epistemological bridge is the base of the ITPSE design since this approach describes culturally inclusive teaching of science. There is an ITPSE of planning and one of enactment. With…
