Most research on emotions and behaviors in science education has used observational or declarative methods. These approaches present certain strengths, but they have important limitations for deepening our understanding of the affective domain. In this work, we develop a method for analyzing the dynamics of affective variables during an…

This study aimed to identify pre-service science teachers' awareness of employing artificial intelligence in science education. It sought also to determine the reasons that led to this level of pre-service science teachers' awareness of employing AI in science education. The mixed-method was used with an interpretive sequential design. The…

In the market discourses of technological disruption, higher education institutions have routinely been positioned in deficit models and of anachronistic approaches to teaching at odds with the types of educational futures being presented by commercial organisations. Predominantly, automation technologies in the form of artificial intelligence are…

The technological advancement and rapid development of artificial intelligence have led to a growing number of studies investigating pedagogical innovations incorporated with emerging technologies in this digital era. An increasing amount of empirical evidence has suggested the potential benefits of incorporating digital technologies and…

Organized by the International Society for Research in Education and Science (ISRES) and the International Society for Academic Research in Science, Technology, and…

This study examines the special education studies on science education in the ERIC database. The main facts to be determined in the content analysis conducted in this study are as follows: subject types of special education studies in the field of science education, change of preferred studies according to years, main objectives, research methods,…

This study aimed to investigate research trends related to socio-scientific issues (SSI). The SSI articles analysed were from highest-rating five science education journals with the highest impact ratings, published between 2011 and 2022, including "Science Education" [SE], "Journal of Research in Science Teaching" [JRST],…

The latest development of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), particularly ChatGPT, has drawn the attention of educational researchers and practitioners. We have witnessed many innovative uses of ChatGPT in STEM classrooms. However, studies regarding students' perceptions of ChatGPT as a virtual tutoring tool in STEM education are rare.…

This study focuses on how distance education can be shaped by ChatGPT, one of the most striking examples of generative AI, which is making progress considering current technological developments. Based on the idea that it will be at the center of our lives very soon with the recent developments in artificial intelligence, the study set out to…

Purpose: The Canadian university where this study took place has established an international exchange program in teacher education with a large Chinese university. This study was designed to examine how the international exchange program influenced Chinese science teacher candidates' understanding of science education and how such learning…
