Kaps, A.; Stallmach, F. – Physics Teacher, 2022
In physics lessons at secondary school and experimental physics courses at universities, the magnetic field inside a current-carrying solenoid is considered quantitatively. The corresponding equations and theories are supported by measuring the magnetic flux density inside the solenoid with a Hall probe. It has already been shown that smartphones…

Bhattacharya, Ahana; Chattopadhyay, K. N.; Adhikary, Chandan – Physics Education, 2022
A cost-effective method has been developed with utmost efficiency for the determination of density of a liquid. The experimental setup for this purpose is a Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cylinder fitted with an overflow spout, a volume measuring cylinder, a wooden block along with a hook and a known mass taken from scientific weight box. For this…

Wildan, Ardan; Yau, Chin Doong; Wijesinghe, Chamaka; Xiao, Kevin; Ng, Tuck Wah – Physics Teacher, 2022
The Van de Graaff (VDG) generator is ubiquitous in the physics laboratory, but the high-voltage discharges that emanate from it can cause user discomfort or damage to nearby electronics during experimentation. In this work, an augmented reality (AR) tool is developed to help students conduct the experiment safely. More specifically, it allows them…

Mahy, Blue; Wallace, Maria F. G. – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2022
School science curricula habitually encourages students to develop science knowledge alongside 'ethical understanding', the moral theory of right and wrong. Drawing from the ideas of Karen Barad, Donna Haraway and Rosi Braidotti, this paper critically examines the 'science-ethics nexus' in Australian secondary schooling. In doing so, it offers a…

Emenaha, Uchenna; Hernandez, James – Teaching Science, 2022
The article presents a 5E environmental science lesson to help students understand the major environmental factors that lead to acid rain. Students are supported to ask scientific questions to solve the mystery of how acid rain might impact historical buildings. This lesson can be used in a variety of settings both in person and online modalities.…

Martin Rozman; Mojca Alif; Urban Bren; Miha Luksic – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Electrochromism encompasses reversible changes of material's optical properties (color, opacity) under the influence of an external electric current or applied voltage. The effect has been known for decades, but its importance continues to grow due to the rapid development of smart systems and the accompanying demand to build devices that consume…

Kevin H. Hunter; Jon-Marc G. Rodriguez; Nicole M. Becker – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
We review the literature, from 2006 to 2020, focused on the teaching and learning of chemical bonding. The studies included in our review (48 studies set in 19 different countries overall) involved secondary and postsecondary students as well as K-12 teachers and university faculty. We synthesize these studies' findings to provide implications for…

Padios, Alfredo C., Jr.; Tobia, Macario V., Jr. – Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education, 2023
Due to the necessity to continue learning even during the pandemic, schools opened utilizing distance learning modalities. However, there is a dearth of evidence on the effectivity of this modalities in physics. In this study, we investigated the effects of three physics distance learning modes; the module-only (MO), virtual lab plus module (VLM),…

Setiaji, Bayu; Santoso, Purwoko Haryadi – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic has constituted a sudden educational transformation around the world. It has disrupted instructors, including physics educators, forcing them to adjust to remote teaching. The hands-on laboratory, one of the components of physics instruction, has also had to rapidly go online in all branches of this science, including nuclear…

Ebert, James R.; Dolphin, Glenn; Bischoff, Paul – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2023
Three cohorts of six pre-service Earth Science teachers (undergraduate majors in Earth Science Education) participated in summer research experiences focused on developing dynamic physical models of Earth processes to help middle and high school students understand complex concepts and confront misconceptions. The pre-service teachers used…

Views of Prospective Science Teachers on Teaching Patriotism Value within the Scope of Science Class
Mevlüt Gündüz; Hasan Polat – International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research, 2023
In this study, the value of patriotism, which is one of the ten core values that students should acquire in the science course, was selected. In this context, the aim of the study is to reveal the views of pre-service science teachers on the teaching of patriotism and examine them in the context of value teaching. In this study, holistic…

Hands-on experiences in analytical chemistry laboratories are essential to improve students' technical skills on handling analytical glassware and instruments, but the coronavirus pandemic in 2020-2021 disrupted such learning activities. Thus, alternative remote activities are required to supplement practical skills. In this work, a new portable…

Aikenhead, Glen S. – Science Education, 2023
This article establishes a rational, feasible, and necessary conclusion to reform high school science content into an equitable experience for its wide diversity of students' self-identities. Research indicates that 85% of graduates would not normally have enrolled in any science course unless required. Their values are more aligned with their…
