Jessica D. Young; Betül Demirdögen; Christopher F. Bauer; Scott E. Lewis – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2025
Peer-led team learning is a socially mediated pedagogy where trained peer leaders, students who have completed a course, return to lead students in groups within a targeted course. The effect of peer-led team learning to improve student success in chemistry has been extensively documented but it is unclear if it is just as effective at…

Qianqian Gao; Mingwen Tong; Jia Sun; Chao Zhang; Yuxin Huang; Si Zhang – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2025
The blended synchronous classroom fosters equitable and balanced educational development; however, challenges persist, including low motivation and suboptimal effects on the deep learning of remote students. This study employs a student-centered learning approach and incorporates the process-oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) strategy into…

Schafer, Adam G. L.; Kuborn, Thomas M.; Schwarz, Cara E.; Deshaye, Megan Y.; Stowe, Ryan L. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2023
The way high school chemistry curricula are structured has the potential to convey consequential messages about knowledge and knowing to students and teachers. If a curriculum is built around practicing skills and recalling facts to reach ''correct'' answers, it is unlikely class activities will be seen (by students or the teacher) as…

Asaph Nkomo – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2023
This paper describes a study in which five physical science teachers were requested to take photographs and describe the science concepts embedded in these. Particularly, the science had to be relevant to the grade 10-grade 12 curriculum they were teaching. This study was an exploratory case study employing qualitative methods. To analyze data…

Hans Eric Muehsler – European Journal of Physics Education, 2023
Lab activities are a vital part of physics courses, providing students with hands-on experiences of classroom topics. At the same time, building self-efficacy is vital to student learning and retention; however, females traditionally have lower self-efficacy in STEM fields. This research explores the role of gender and the changes in interest in…

Matilynn Lam; Casey Schwarz; Rashi Sharma; Julie Donnelly – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Despite the growing importance of nanomaterials in numerous industries, most undergraduate chemistry students are unlikely to encounter characterization techniques common in the field during their education. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a common technique for materials characterization widely used in careers chemistry students are likely…

Arun Richard Chandrasekaran – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The field of DNA nanotechnology has grown rapidly in the past decade and has expanded to multiple laboratories. While lectures in DNA nanotechnology have been introduced in some institutions, laboratory components at the undergraduate level are still lacking. Undergraduate students predominantly learn about DNA nanotechnology through their…

Kübra Özmen – Research in Science Education, 2024
While many university health science programs include physics courses to raise knowledge and understanding of physical science concepts, they are still far from addressing the needs of that science health profession. This study aimed to investigate the effect of an introductory physics course on first-year physiotherapy and rehabilitation (PR)…

Hilal Coskun Karabulut; Naime Elcan kaynak; Ishak Afsin Kariper – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
This paper examines the findings obtained in a chemistry laboratory course provided through online hands-on activities during the pandemic. Case study design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The data collection period was 8 weeks. The study was carried out with 16 third-year pre-service science teachers within the scope of a…

Matthew Lundquist; Ann Aguanno – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
Moving to remote, online learning to meet health guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic posed a challenge for college science courses due to the interactive nature of laboratories. We developed and implemented a remote/in-person lab partner model where in-person students were paired with remote students in natural science courses during the…

Catherine Maresca – Religious Education, 2024
When a conflict between science and faith is perceived by the child, who will help them? Parents, grandparents, and other caretakers can model the embrace of both faith and science. In some situations, schools and teachers can foster both spirituality and science education. More commonly, with proper guidance and practical examples from different…
