Stephanie M. Breen; Jesse McCain; Josipa Roksa – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2024
Prior literature has documented the importance of faculty advisors in the doctoral student socialization process, with a few studies describing negative advising relationships characterized by disengagement, disinterest, unsupportive behavior, and interpersonal conflict. We extend this research by exploring how negative advising relationships…

Alexis D. Riley; Felicia Moore Mensah – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Marginalized communities cannot and do not have decontextualized experiences with how socioscientific issues, such as exposure to COVID-19 as frontline essential workers, high Black infant mortality rates, air pollution leading to respiratory problems, and other issues, affect their communities. As PreK-12 science teachers and teacher educators…

Irina Braun; Nicole Graulich – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Resonance is a crucial concept in Organic Chemistry that enables both deriving chemical properties from molecular structures and predicting reactions by considering electron density distribution. Despite its importance for problem-solving and learning success, learners encounter various difficulties with this concept. Although prior research…

Ifeyinwa Uke; Jazlin Ebenezer; Osman Nafiz Kaya – Research in Science Education, 2024
This mixed-methods research study aimed to observe the changes in relational conceptual changes and achievement in photosynthesis and cellular respiration in 15 seventh-grade students using the variation theory of learning, a framework for contextual distinctions, and supports the Common Knowledge Construction Model (CKCM) for science education.…

Chi Kit Jacky Ng; Lok Yin Joyce Kwan; Wai Chan – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
In the past decade, moderated mediation analysis has been extensively and increasingly employed in social and behavioral sciences. With its widespread use, it is particularly important to ensure the moderated mediation analysis will not bring spurious results. Spurious effects have been studied in both mediation and moderation analysis, but this…

Seliem El-Sayed; Filip Paspalj – Research Ethics, 2024
Recital 33 GDPR has often been interpreted as referring to 'broad consent'. This version of informed consent was intended to allow data subjects to provide their consent for certain areas of research, or parts of research projects, conditional to the research being in line with 'recognised ethical standards'. In this article, we argue that broad…

William R. Nugent – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2024
Symmetry considerations are important in science, and Group Theory is a theory of symmetry. Classical Measurement Theory is the most used measurement theory in the social and behavioral sciences. In this article, the author uses Matrix Lie (Lee) group theory to formulate a measurement model. Symmetry is defined and illustrated using symmetries of…

Chih-Hung Chen; Jia-Yu Syu – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
Virtual contexts play a crucial role in assisting students' learning. Researchers have taken advantage of the potential of immersive virtual reality (VR) for situating students in inaccessible places, and for engaging them in learning activities. Meanwhile, several previous studies have reported that, in VR-based learning contexts, students'…

K. K. Mashood; Arvind Kumar; Anwesh Mazumdar – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
Working with approximations is a common practice in physics. This paper presents an exploratory study of student understanding of some of the elementary aspects of approximations encountered in college physics. For this purpose, a questionnaire (a set of 14 multiple-choice questions) was developed to probe how students dealt with these aspects in…

Juliann Dupuis; Rachel E. Durham – Environmental Education Research, 2024
Green School Programs are an internationally recognized effort that transforms schools into environmentally friendly entities and engage school communities in environmentally impactful efforts. Such efforts may increase student awareness about their connection to the environment and have the potential to increase achievement through opportunities…

Zeynep Güler; Burcu Güngör Cabbar; Sami Özgür – Journal of Science Learning, 2024
This study aims to determine those topics and concepts that biology and science teacher candidates find most challenging to learn in biology lessons. A qualitative case study research method was used to this end. A total of 132 science and biology teacher candidates studying at a state university were asked to write down the ten subjects or…

Barton, Callie; Gasaway, Katherine Clohan; Islam, Rejaul; Aziz, Tarfi; Krewall, Jessica; Punthrangkul, Devon; Willian, Kyle R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
This paper describes the development of a fully remote upper-class biochemistry lab course. The sudden change to online teaching in the middle of spring semester 2020 had a primarily negative impact on laboratory teaching. These effects were mitigated because the students had done many of the basic hands-on procedures before the switch. A true…

May, Jason Michael – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Undergraduate physics laboratory curriculum has undergone significant modification in recent decades in response to research and recommendations from educational and professional organizations and stakeholders. These reforms address multiple issues, such as 1) lack of student agency in experimentation, 2) an incomplete framework for student…
