Faggioni, Thaís; Ferreira, Natiele Carla da Silva; Lopes, Renato Matos; Fidalgo-Neto, Antonio Augusto; Cotta-de-Almeida, Vinicius; Alves, Luiz Anastacio – Advances in Physiology Education, 2019
The use of computers as a pedagogical resource is currently on the rise. In the case of immunology, students present difficulties in visualizing molecular phenomena. Thus the use of animations and simulations available on the internet might facilitate the learning of complex immunological concepts. In this context, it is important to map and…

Saka, Arzu – European Journal of Educational Research, 2019
The aim of this study is to present pre-service biology teachers with reading texts about the research of Van Helmont and Joseph Priestley relate to the subject of photosynthesis, for their familiarization with the processual and contextual aspects of science and their understanding of the nature of science, and to reveal the extent to which these…

Linkov, Václav; O'Doherty, Kieran; Choi, Eunsoo; Han, Gyuseog – SAGE Open, 2021
Current scientometric indexes do not encourage the linguistic diversity of sources cited in academic texts and researchers are not motivated to cite texts written in smaller languages. This diminishes the cultural diversity of the sources cited and limits the representation of small and indigenous cultures. This text proposes a scientometric…

Laranjeiro, Dionísia – Education Sciences, 2021
Recent studies indicate tablets as the preferred devices of preschool children, due to portability, autonomy of use and variety of apps. There is also extensive evidence of the contributions of digital technologies in different areas of learning at these ages. The Aprender XXI project aimed to develop game-based learning apps, with content…

Ragosta, Summer; Potter, Daniel; Bartosh, Heath – American Biology Teacher, 2020
We present results from the first year of a three-year extramurally funded project involving a partnership between an ethnically diverse urban high school and professional research botanists. The goals are to provide students exposure to real-world science, broaden interest in scientific fields of study, and increase floristic data and herbarium…

Byars-Winston, Angela; Leverett, Patrice; Benbow, Ross J.; Pfund, Christine; Thayer-Hart, Nancy; Branchaw, Janet – Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, 2020
This case study investigated how mentors and mentees in biology experience and understand race and ethnicity in their research mentoring relationships. Semistructured interviews were conducted with mentors (n = 23) and mentees (n = 15) who had participated in an undergraduate biology summer research opportunity program at a large Midwestern…

Van Ruyskensvelde, Sarah; Nys, Laura – History of Education, 2020
The establishment of the Central Observation Institute in Mol in 1913 marks the introduction of scientific expertise in Belgium's youth delinquency policy. The child at risk was subjected to a series of observations, resulting in an observation report ('waarnemingsverslag') that contained the psychological, moral and physical characteristics of…

Simbürger, Elisabeth; Guzmán-Valenzuela, Carolina – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2020
This article discusses the role of the media and academic experts in the configuration of educational policy in a neoliberal context. The analysis is based on the discourse on the public/private divide in higher education scrutinising the opinion columns of "El Mercurio," a major Chilean newspaper. The authors identify the discursive…

Pineda, Pedro; Gregorutti, Gustavo; Streitwieser, Bernhard – Journal of Studies in International Education, 2020
Analyzing the number of publications and proportion of corresponding authors of Latin American scholars and scholars from the German Max Planck Society (MPS) and the Leibniz Association (LA; 1954-2018), this article asks if North-South partnerships continue to represent power imbalances. Our bibliometric analysis indicates that (a) in comparison…

Berland, Leema K.; Russ, Rosemary S.; West, Cori P. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2020
Meaningfully engaging students in the NGSS scientific practices requires that student ideas become the driving force of classroom activity. However, in order for student ideas to take on this new role, teachers must engage in responsive teaching in which they elicit, notice, and respond to the substance of student thinking. In this work, we…

Ramos, Tania; Marques, João; Garcia-Marques, Leonel – Psicologica: International Journal of Methodology and Experimental Psychology, 2017
Implicit memory reflects itself on situations in which previously acquired information is expressed, without awareness or intention. The study of implicit memory has had a profound impact on how researchers have investigated the human memory. In this paper, we review the main studies which have revealed dissociations between direct and indirect…

Robertson, Janet; Chadwick, Darren; Baines, Susannah; Emerson, Eric; Hatton, Chris – Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2017
Dysphagia (feeding and swallowing disorder) is associated with serious health complications and psychosocial sequelae. This review summarizes international research relating to the prevalence of dysphagia in people with intellectual disability. Studies published from 1990 to July 2016 were identified using Medline, Cinahl, PsycINFO, Web of…

Coath, Martin – School Science Review, 2017
This article describes a workshop designed to help students to ascertain the relative difficulty and amenability to scientific investigation of various questions. Group discussions are used to illustrate that some questions do not have a right answer, which is not a normal expectation in science lessons.

Fernandes, Lynette B. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2017
Responsible conduct in learning and research (RCLR) was progressively introduced into the pharmacology curriculum for undergraduate science students at The University of Western Australia. In the second year of this undergraduate curriculum, a lecture introduces students to issues such as the use of animals in teaching and responsible conduct of…

Keviczky, László; Bányász, Csilla – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2017
The paper discusses some interesting, mainly philosophical paradigms of the modeling and control areas, which are still partly unsolved and/or only partially studied. First the possible introduction of a prejudice free control--similar to the term for the modeling introduced by Rudi Kalman--is investigated. Next the real constraints in real…
