Examining the Impact of Head-Mounted Display Virtual Reality on the Science Self-Efficacy of High Schoolers
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Huang, Wen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
Traditional science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education is sometimes criticized for lacking approaches to present real-world practices and phenomena beyond naked eyes. Head-mounted display virtual reality (HMD VR) provides opportunities to solve this issue. However, little is known about the impact of this approach on…

Science Self-Efficacy in the Relationship between Gender & Science Identity
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Miles, Jeffrey A.; Naumann, Stefanie E. – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Historically women have been underrepresented in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Some scholars have suggested that science self-concept perceptions have contributed to this gender gap. We propose and empirically examine a model of the relationships between gender, sexual orientation, science self-efficacy,…
