Aji, Mahardika Prasetya; Rahmawati, Ita; Imtinan, Nisrina; Permatasari, Hestining Ajeng; Hidayah, Husnul; Linuwih, Suharto; Priyanto, Aan; Yusmantoro, Yusmantoro – Physics Teacher, 2022
The center of mass (CM) is an abstract quantity but essential as a reference point used to understand the position and movement of an object or a system of objects. Many researchers have used video recordings to analyze and understand the movement of objects in a system. In a system with colliding objects, the motion can be obtained precisely from…

Artukovic, Ranko Martin; Marušic, Mirko – Physics Teacher, 2021
Although the old problem of rotating liquid is described and solved in many textbooks and articles, the story still remains interesting. Intuitive understanding of the equipotential spatial surfaces is very difficult. This article is an attempt to present Newton's rotating tank in the light of the law of conservation of energy.

Qingming Cui; Guanzhu Lin; Shuhua Qiu; Tao Duan – SAGE Open, 2023
The global food crisis has made food waste reduction an important area for research and practice. In China, food is frequently wasted in university canteens. Identifying the factors involved is critical for reducing waste and preserving resources and the environment. In contrast to previous studies of canteen food waste, which have mainly used…

Elizabeth Braga – Australian and International Journal of Rural Education, 2024
This article addresses the issue of the production of space in rural and urban territories and the dialectical relation with agency and environmental activism. The data came from a collective ethnographic action research conducted at the Unified Educational Centre Uirapuru and its surroundings in the periphery of São Paulo in Brazil. In this…

Can, Derya – Acta Educationis Generalis, 2021
Introduction: Subitizing, a quick apprehension of the numerosity of a small set of items, is consistently utilized to support early number understanding. Perceptual subitizing is the innate ability to recognize less than five items without consciously using other mental or mathematical processes. Conceptual subitizing, which requires higher-level…

Kim, Hyunjee Hannah; Choi, Jin Nam – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
A core challenge for team innovation is the successful translation of creative ideas into innovation through implementation. This study examines the tension between internal and external team resourcing behaviors that account for how teams translate their creative ideas into implemented innovation. Drawing on conservation of resource theory, we…

Hong, Dae S.; Runnalls, Cristina – School Science and Mathematics, 2020
The purpose of this work was to explore how elementary preservice teachers responded to area conservation tasks. We administered written pre-assessments, followed by semi-structured interviews with 23 preservice teachers, asking them to respond to and reason with area conservation tasks. Findings highlighted several interesting preservice…

Gauld, Colin; Cross, Rod – Physics Education, 2021
Newton's cradle is often discussed in science classrooms as a clear example of the laws of conservation of momentum and energy although it has been shown that this use is somewhat misleading. Approaches to understanding the behaviour of this apparatus are often over-simplified and deficient or over-complex and with little impact among teachers. In…

Unyapoti, Trai; Arayathanitkul, Kwan; Emarat, Narumon – Physics Teacher, 2020
Collisions are real-world situations from everyday life (such as car crashes, playing billiards, etc.) that can be described and understood by the principle of conservation of momentum. One might expect that learning from simple collisions might help students understand more complicated physical phenomena. However, from our teaching experiences we…

Cross, Rod; Gauld, Colin – Physics Education, 2021
Newton's cradle is a well-known physics toy that is commonly used by teachers to demonstrate conservation laws in mechanics. It can also be used to investigate the physics of colliding objects, by recording motion of the balls on video film. Various experiments are described using 3-ball and 5-ball cradles, showing how different types of collision…

Sari, Puspita; Fong, Ng Swee – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2022
Algebra as a study of quantitative relationship is one of four conceptions of school algebra which serves as a foundation for the concept of function. However, there is still a lack of attention to this particular relationship, especially in early algebraic reasoning. This study aims to investigate how the aspect of quantitative relationship in…

Rafiepour, Abolfazl; Abdolahpour, Kazem – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2022
The main purpose of the current study is modifying students' daily drinking water and managing waste water through modelling activities as context and modelling cycle as tool. In this study, 12 students (13-14 years old) from the lower secondary school were participated. These students were participated in two sessions (60 minutes) each week for…

Watanabe, Nobuki – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2021
Conservation and executive function (EF) are important early childhood skills; however, knowledge about their relationship is scarce. Hence, in this study, this relationship is investigated, and a comparison is conducted between the Piagetian conservation and EF tasks to obtain the total hemoglobin (mMmm) for the left and right brain activity in…

Olteanu, Radu Lucian; Gorghiu, Gabriel – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2023
Science actions represent specific initiatives and demarches that involve investigation, experimentation, and even research, for raising the interest of the young generation in science, through particular approaches of STEM education. Important topics are promoted to students in various approaches, addressing nowadays problems, answering…
