Haim, Liliana – Journal of Chemical Education, 2005
''The Chemistry Kitchen'', a unit composed of five activities with kitchen elements for elementary students ages 9-11, introduces the children to the skills and chemical working ideas to be used later as anchors for chemical concepts. These activities include kitchen elements, determining the relative mass and so on.

Wu, Meng-Yang Matthew; Yezierski, Ellen J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) have been imperative for informing many facets of the chemistry education research field, one of which includes the professional development (PD) of high school teachers. While many researchers and practitioners have responded to the NGSS' calls for reform by attending to internal factors that influence…

Orozco, Mariana; Gijbels, David; Timmerman, Christiane – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2021
The integration of theory and practice constitutes an anchor of today's technical vocational education and training (T-VET) and a major determinant of professional development. Understanding such integration is expected to contribute to pedagogical advancement and to provide new research tools. Current knowledge on the epistemological roots of…

Frey, Christopher A.; Mikasen, Marjorie L.; Griep, Mark A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2012
Movies and movie clips have been used by many instructors to teach chemistry. Entire movies based on true chemical stories are used because they provide students with a common experience after which instructors can launch writing lessons about the chemistry, the scientists, or engineers, or even postscripts to the story presented in the film. In…

Schmidkonz, Bertram – Journal of Chemical Education, 2017
Learning how cave formations, such as dripstone, take shape can be a valuable pedagogical tool in chemistry and geochemistry. Grasping the underlying processes requires students to synthesize knowledge of several different topical areas. The activity presented here uses an innovative experiment to connect chemistry concepts with an interesting…

Cavallo, Ann M. L.; McNeely, Jack C.; Marek, Edmund A. – International Journal of Science Education, 2003
Examines 9th grade students' explanations of chemical reactions using two forms of open-ended essay questions, those providing students with key terms to be used as "anchors" on which to base their essay, and those that do not provide terms. Results indicate that more misunderstandings were elicited by the use of key terms as compared to…

Rodriguez-Velazquez, Sorangel – ProQuest LLC, 2013
Electrochemistry is the area of chemistry that studies electron transfer reactions across an interface. Chemistry education researchers have acknowledged that difficulties in electrochemistry instruction arise due to the level of abstraction of the topic, lack of adequate explanations and representations found in textbooks, and a quantitative…

Yusten, Jason; Gerber, D. Timothy; Beck, Judy – American Biology Teacher, 2003
Because soils provide water, minerals, and a medium to anchor the roots of plants, measuring the basic physical/chemical components of soils is important to maintaining healthy garden plants and agricultural crops. Historically, soil analysis has been practiced to determine fertilizer and lime applications, soil fertility, and soil improvement…
