Direct linkFeser, Markus Sebastian; Höttecke, Dietmar – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
Although the promotion of students' language proficiency is an objective of all school subjects, many physics teachers self-evidently expect their students to apply sophisticated language repertoires. We assume that this expectation affects how physics teachers assess students' texts in a classroom assessment. More precisely, we suppose that…

Miller, Emily C.; Severance, Samuel; Krajcik, Joseph – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
In "A Framework for K-12 Science Education," researchers call for teachers to make dramatic shifts in practice -- and sustain in these changes in practice -- so students can engage in rigorous and equitable three-dimensional science learning. Project-Based Learning (PBL) motivates students from diverse backgrounds to persist in learning.…

OpenSciEd is an ambitious effort to implement the vision of the "Framework for K-12 Science Education" and the "Next Generation Science Standards" broadly across the United States. The premise of OpenSciEd is that high quality instructional materials can play a critical role in transforming science teaching and learning at a…

Reiser, Brian J.; Novak, Michael; McGill, Tara A. W.; Penuel, William R. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The vision of the Framework and NGSS requires important shifts in teaching approaches and instructional materials. We argue that this commitment to engaging learners in meaningful practice and supporting students' epistemic agency entails that we support "coherence from the students' perspective." This coherence arises when students see…

Haas, Alison; Januszyk, Rita; Grapin, Scott E.; Goggins, Marcelle; Llosa, Lorena; Lee, Okhee – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The adoption of "A Framework for K-12 Science Education" and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) across the U.S. requires that the field of science education develops high-quality instructional materials. This need is particularly urgent as schools and districts are expected to design or adapt instructional materials for an…

Miller, Emily C.; Reigh, Emily; Berland, Leema; Krajcik, Joseph – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
Project-based learning (PBL) is a long-standing curricular model that has been argued to support equity-based goals in science learning. Yet, little is known about how PBL can be implemented effectively and equitably in the context of virtual instruction. This comparative case study follows two elementary science teachers as they transition to…

Karlström, Matti; Hamza, Karim – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
We present an empirically based model for teaching about planning in pre-service science teacher education as part of on-campus courses. Planning is usually taught through the introduction of theoretically based planning models, but these models commonly assume a linear idea of planning that does not match how teachers go about planning. We…

Antink-Meyer, Allison; Parker, Margaret – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The inclusion of engineering in science learning standards draws attention to the need to support pre-service teachers' ability to teach engineering to young learners. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of two courses on pre-service elementary teachers' self-perceptions of their ability to teach engineering and on their design…

Remmen, Kari Beate; Jegstad, Kirsti Marie; Höper, Jan – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
Research has called for greater emphasis on outdoor science activities in preservice teacher education. Therefore, in this study, preservice teachers reflect on an outdoor chemistry unit that aimed to model outdoor science activities to be conducted in local settings within short time frames. Data from the preservice teachers' reflections were…

Norville, Kayla; Park, Soonhye – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
Due to the demand for high-quality teachers in the United States, especially in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), developing pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in teachers early in their teacher education programs can be critical for their becoming effective in the classroom. Employing a multiple-case study design,…

Weinburgh, Molly; Silva, Cecilia; Smith, Kathy Horak – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The purpose of this study was to understand how biology teachers experienced and learned from professional development (PD) in which the 5R Instructional Model was used as a framework for planning inclusive lesson for emerging multilingual learners (EML). The PD integrated biology content with the scientific practices of using mathematical…

Mikeska, Jamie N.; Brockway, Debra; Ciofalo, Joseph; Jin, Hui; Ritter, Suzanne – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
To support science teachers in learning how to engage in ambitious teaching practices, teacher educators, professional development facilitators, and researchers need to develop a nuanced understanding of the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) that science teachers access and use in their daily work. Despite the consensus on the importance of…

Kruse, Jerrid; Henning, Joleen; Wilcox, Jesse; Carmen, Katherine; Patel, Neal; Seebach, Colin – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
A high self-efficacy in teaching is sometimes used as a kind of litmus test of science teaching practices. However, the connection between self-efficacy and teaching effectiveness is not well established. Therefore, this study sought to investigate the connections between self-efficacy and enacted science teaching of preservice elementary…

Kilty, Trina J.; Burrows, Andrea C. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The purpose of this study was to describe "what" and "how" secondary science preservice teachers (SSPST) implemented technology, in student teaching residency, that they had planned in previous science methods courses. A collective case study approach with purposeful sampling was used to gain understanding of multiple…

Menon, Deepika; Azam, Saiqa – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate preservice elementary teachers' science teacher identity development during their participation in the field-based science methods course and a year after. Grounded within the Feiman-Nemser's thematic framework of learning to teach, this study utilized a case study approach aimed to examine…
