Apple, Lillian; Baunach, John; Connelly, Glenda; Gahlhoff, Sonia; Romanowicz, Colleen Megowan; Vieyra, Rebecca Elizabeth; Walker, Lucas – Physics Teacher, 2021
Multiple initiatives contend that all students should master computational thinking, including the "Next Generation Science Standards, the K-12 Framework for Computational Thinking," and Code.org. In turn, many physics teachers have begun to explore a variety of approaches to integrating computational modeling through programming. These…

Akerson, Valarie L., Ed.; Carter, Ingrid S., Ed. – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2021
Certainly the year 2020 will be one for the history books, as COVID-19 made its impact globally beginning in that year. While it did not hit the United States substantially until about March of 2020, other countries felt the effects sooner. Eventually it seemed that the globe essentially was shut down due to the COVID-19 outbreak. This type of…

Lucas Education Research, George Lucas Educational Foundation, 2021
This research brief highlights the findings of a study looking at the impact of a project-based approach to science instruction in middle school. Stanford University experts and middle school teachers developed the project-based program, Learning Through Performance (LTP). Researchers found that the approach boosted student achievement in science…

Samora Rugumamu – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Many high school science teachers feel ill-equipped and ill-trained to adequately support the ever-increasing number of ESL/EFL students. The purpose of this qualitative single case study was to explore science teachers' perspectives of effective science teaching strategies, the challenges implementing science teaching strategies, and suggestions…

Bar, Varda; Shirtz, Aviv Spector; Brosh, Yafa; Sneider, Cary – Science Educator, 2019
In light of extensive research demonstrating widespread misconceptions about electricity, this paper describes a learning study that targeted the most likely source of difficulty--failure of middle school pupils to develop a mental model that serves as a bridge between static and current electricity. During the intervention, pupils first envision…

Wang, Tzu-Hua; Kao, Chien-Hui; Dai, Yu-Ling – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
This study developed a web-based multimedia assessment system (WMA system) and applied it to science laboratory instruction. The goal was to improve students' knowledge acquisition under science laboratory instruction. The developed system enabled learners to perform self-assessments by responding to multimedia technology test items online. The…

Gumpert, Mindy; McConell, William – Science and Children, 2019
Students with disabilities spend the majority of their day in the general education classroom (U.S. Department of Education 2017). However, these students consistently underperform in science. This highlights the importance of using effective differentiated instruction. According to Mastropieri and colleagues (2006), differentiated instruction…

Menon, Deepika; Devadas, Mary Sajini – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
The new approach to teaching science presented by the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) warrants training high-quality science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teachers to prepare the future STEM workforce. We share the implementation of an energy lesson using a nanoscience approach, well-aligned with the NGSS vision, in a…

Dean, Natalie L.; Ewan, Corrina; Braden, Douglas; McIndoe, J. Scott – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Comprehension of the 3D structure of objects usually represented in 2D is a critical part of understanding molecular geometries. The frequency with which students actually get hands-on with 3D molecular structures is often limited to a singular laboratory session. We sought to develop a set of molecular shapes that were inexpensive enough not only…

Noei, Nima; Imani, Iman Mohammadi; Wilson, Lee D.; Azizian, Saeid – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
A low-cost and simple setup to measure the densities of liquids is introduced herein. The results and reliability of this setup were evaluated for pure liquids, water-ethanol binary mixtures, and aqueous NaCl solutions. The constructed densitometer provided density values with acceptable relative errors (less than ±3.0%), which were compared to…

Jeffery, Kathleen A. – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Recent calls in education have emphasized the critical need for curricula in the sciences to support student development of the general and disciplinary-specific practices that are relevant to modern scientific research and careers, as well as foundational scientific knowledge that reflects recent advances. In this regard, the life sciences,…

Özcan, Hasan; Tasar, Mehmet Fatih – Journal of Inquiry Based Activities, 2019
This study aimed to teach 9th grade students the meanings of scientific theory and scientific law, and the differences between them. The related literature informs that students at different grade levels have misconceptions about the definition of both scientific theory and scientific law and the relationship between them. In this study, the…

Hainsworth, Mark – Primary Science, 2019
Learning outdoors can be a powerful pedagogical tool in a teachers science arsenal and one that can be exploited throughout the year to teach a variety of science topics. In his first article on outdoor learning in science, the author considered which areas of science could be taught outdoors and the resources that can be used; in this follow-up…
