Willingham, Daniel T.; Daniel, David B. – Education Next, 2021
Scientific evidence is regularly invoked in defense of one classroom practice or another. Yet teachers, for the most part, ignore these studies. Why? First, teachers may view research as somewhat removed from the classroom, with further translation needed for the practice to be ready to implement in a live setting. Second, teachers may judge a…

McKinney, Daniel – Science Teacher, 2020
Teaching the tools and concepts associated with modern physics can often be a daunting and difficult task for secondary science teachers. Classical physics is often perceived as intimidating and complex in its own right. Modern physics addressing quantum phenomena where Newtonian laws break down is even more abstract for learners. However,…

Littlejohn, Emily – Brock Education: A Journal of Educational Research and Practice, 2018
"Adaptation" originally began as a scientific term, but from 1860 to today it most often refers to an altered version of a text, film, or other literary source. When this term was first analyzed, humanities scholars often measured adaptations against their source texts, frequently privileging "original" texts. However, this…

Alpaslan, Muhammet Mustafa; Yalvac, Bugrahan; Loving, Cathleen – Science & Education, 2017
This case study explores students' physics-related personal epistemologies in school science practices. The school science practices of nine eleventh grade students in a physics class were audio-taped over 6 weeks. The students were also interviewed to find out their ideas on the nature of scientific knowledge after each activity. Analysis of…

Bailey, Richard – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2020
It seems reasonable to suppose that educational practices should be informed by philosophical and scientific understandings of the character and operation of mental processes. Clark and Chambers' 1998 'The Extended Mind' is a seminal paper in the philosophy of mind, but has received limited attention by educational researchers. Their Extended Mind…

Chan, Lisa; Macdonald, Mary Ellen; Carnevale, Franco A.; Steele, Russell J.; Shrier, Ian – Research Synthesis Methods, 2018
While the systematic review process is intended to maximize objectivity and limit researchers' biases, examples remain of discordant recommendations from meta-analyses. Current guidelines to explore discrepancies assume the variation is produced by methodological differences and thus focus only on the study process. Because heterogeneity of…

Leria, Lucinda A.; Benitez, Priscila; Fraga, Francisco J. – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
Currently, computer-based tests are widely used in large-scale assessments in education. However, the effective participation of people with visual impairments (PwVI) through the use of Assistive Technologies (ATs) to take these tests equitably and independently is an open challenge, particularly in countries with high social inequality, as…
