Rasman, Rasman – International Journal of Language Education, 2021
Motivational currents, a relatively new concept in the field of language learning, has contributed to understanding how long-term motivational energy can be sustained among learners. Despite such critical contribution, little is known on how one of its core elements called vision, a vivid image of one's future self, can be sustainable in such a…

Kaps, A.; Splith, T.; Stallmach, F. – Physics Education, 2021
A concept for undergraduate mechanics courses at universities is introduced where traditional pencil-paper based exercises are partially replaced by experimental exercises, in which smartphones are used as measurement devices. A detailed guidance for practical realization and implementation of these tasks formats into the course is presented.…

Ouellette-Schramm, Jennifer – Journal on Excellence in College Teaching, 2021
Understanding community college English language learner (ELL) goals may help educators better support ELLs to set and pursue those goals. One lens that has illuminated important differences in ELL goals is constructive-developmental theory (CDT). Using a CDT lens, this qualitative case study investigated the goals of six community college ELLs…

Li, Yangqiuting; Singh, Chandralekha – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
Students' motivational beliefs about physics can influence their learning outcomes as well as retention in their majors and career choices. Moreover, due to societal stereotypes and biases about who belongs in physics and can succeed in physics, women often have lower motivational beliefs about physics than men. The expectancy-value theory…

Ntourou, Vassiliki; Kalogiannakis, Michail; Psycharis, Sarantos – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
This article presents a quasi-experiment which, with the use of Arduino and Scratch for Arduino (S4A), attempts to study their effect on self-efficacy and motivation towards Science Education, Computational Thinking (CT) and the views of 5th Grade students about concepts of electricity. It was conducted on the 5th Grade of a Primary School in…

Adkins-Jablonsky, Sarah J.; Shaffer, Justin F.; Morris, J. Jeffrey; England, Ben; Raut, Samiksha – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2021
Anxiety can impact overall performance and persistence in college. Student response systems (SRSs), real-time active-learning technologies used to engage students and gauge their understanding, have been shown to elicit anxiety for some students. Kahoot! is an SRS technology that differs from others in that it involves gamification, the use of…

Williams, Katherine A.; Hall, Troy E.; O'Connell, Kari – Environmental Education Research, 2021
Citizen science projects are an increasingly popular way to engage the public in the process of science. However, few studies have evaluated learning outcomes beyond knowledge gains in formal learning settings with youth. This study evaluated the effects of a classroom-based citizen science project in which middle and high school students…

Barth, Eric; Higginbottom, Ryan S. – PRIMUS, 2021
Gateway testing is an important pedagogic tool employed by many university mathematics departments in calculus and precalculus courses. With a goal of ensuring that students attain needed basic skills in courses with a conceptual "reform" orientation, these tests provide an efficient means of assessing a large volume of student work,…

Kwarikunda, Diana; Schiefele, Ulrich; Ssenyonga, Joseph; Muwonge, Charles Magoba – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
For efficient and effective pedagogical interventions to address Uganda's alarmingly poor performance in Physics, it is vital to understand students' motivation patterns for Physics learning. Latent profile analysis (LPA)--a person-centred approach--can be used to investigate these motivation patterns. Using a three-step approach to LPA, we sought…
