Brown, Nicole – Research Ethics, 2023
The role of research ethics committees, and research ethics issues more broadly are often not viewed in the context of the development of scientific methods and the academic community. This topic piece seeks to redress this gap. I begin with a brief outline of the changes we experience within the social sciences before exploring in more detail…

Kato, Danilo Seithi; Galamba, Arthur; Monteiro, Bruno Andrade Pinto – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2023
In this article, we argue that mainstream science education is contaminated by neoliberal values and functions in the service of political domination and exploitation and that a neoliberal and exploitative science education does not contribute to the building of a sustainable and just world. The work from Paulo Freire and Enrique Dussel underpin…

Hoang, Cuong Huu – Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education, 2023
Given the importance of local scholars' understanding of research in their integration into global academia, this study explored the way scholars conceptualised and perceived the meaning of research and their identities as researchers. This article reports data from a qualitative case study using semi-structured interviews to explore the…

Karcher, Elizabeth L.; Wardwell, Brianna; Ragland, Elizabeth; York, Ashley; Machaty, Zoltan; Stewart, Kara; Radcliffe, Scott; Lott, Erica A. – Natural Sciences Education, 2023
Departmental-level curricular redesign is a vital issue in higher education, especially as departments work to move toward more student-centered teaching and learning environments. However, there is a lack of guidance on the steps to take or potential solutions to challenges faced by faculty and departments undergoing the curricular redesign…

Cardenas, Alejandra G. – Natural Sciences Education, 2023
As our population continues to grow, the demand of a more efficient agriculture system heightens. We work to produce the highest yield possible to cover demands. Are we compromising our water quality for mass food production? In past years, the West Coast growers had been facing increasing struggles to farm with their allotted water often turning…

Edwards, Danielle N.; Meyer, Edgar R.; Brooks, William S.; Wilson, Adam B. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Medical education has reported a shortage of anatomy educators since the 1960s. While the faculty pipeline has recently been explored, insights into retirement intentions, a key driver of faculty turnover, have yet to be investigated. With the mean age of anatomists rising, knowledge of retirement intentions among current educators is essential to…

Jayanti, Ummi Nur Afinni Dwi; Adlini, Miza Nina – International Journal for Lesson and Learning Studies, 2023
Purpose: Despite numerous kinds of research regarding the potential of lesson study (LS) in internship and microteaching in teacher education curricula, studies examining the adaptation of LS in the lesson planning (LP) course have not been established. To fill this gap, this study aims to explore the perceptions of pre-service biology teachers of…

Goldstein, Yoav; Legewie, Nicolas M.; Shiffer-Sebba, Doron – Sociological Methods & Research, 2023
Video data offer important insights into social processes because they enable direct observation of real-life social interaction. Though such data have become abundant and increasingly accessible, they pose challenges to scalability and measurement. Computer vision (CV), i.e., software-based automated analysis of visual material, can help address…

Danielsson, Anna T.; King, Heather; Godec, Spela; Nyström, Anne-Sofie – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2023
This manuscript reflects on the affordances and limitations of methodological approaches commonly adopted by science education researchers examining learner identities. Our aims are to unpack the relative strengths and weaknesses of such approaches and note their respective prevalence. In so doing, we identify and critique studies which we…

Chacón-Díaz, Lucía B. – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2023
Science education has an important role in educating the public on learning strategies that will generate a scientific literate population. The challenges encountered in this time of crisis calls for individuals to make well-informed decisions, based on reliable information. Understanding scientific basic concepts can inform the population on…

Bolduc, Kathryn C.; McCollough, Shannon L.; Stoeckman, Angela K. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
Undergraduate laboratory courses are vital for both enhancing student learning and preparing students for their future careers. Despite their importance, laboratory courses are often met with a lack of enthusiasm from students. For pre-health students specifically, laboratory courses are commonly seen as part of a check-list that needs to be…

Ma, Xin; Zhang, Yin; Luo, Xingkai – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Although there is an increasing recognition of the importance of critical thinking in science education across the world, the relevant research literature is extremely thin. There is an urgent need to generate more empirical evidence. Purpose: We examined two essential issues concerning critical thinking (the relationship between…

Bonnett, Michael – Environmental Education Research, 2023
This essay outlines some of the key themes and ideas developed in in the above title. These include: the influence of scientism and a "metaphysics of mastery" in late modern times; a phenomenology of nature that focusses on the native "occurring" of things in nature; the development of a notion of environmental consciousness in…

Tan, Michael; Koh, Teck Seng – Science Education, 2023
In considering goals for science education, it is conventional to make arguments for the utility of scientific knowledge for a variety of purposes. Less prominent are rationales based on the beauty or truth of science. In this paper, we examine how an approach to science education might be different if we shift the goals of communication to an…

Lesperance, Rosiane; Kuhn, Deanna – Science Education, 2023
The most important understanding science students should acquire is arguably an understanding of science as a way of knowing, one central to science but not specific to it. Students' own engagement in scientific inquiry and argument can support this developing understanding but does not guarantee it. We report the results of urban adolescents'…
