Petersen, Jacinta E.; Treagust, David F. – Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 2014
Science in the Australian primary school context is in a state of renewal with the recent implementation of the Australian Curriculum: Science. Despite this curriculum renewal, the results of primary students in science have remained static. Science in Australia has been identified as one of the least taught subjects in the primary school…

Vogel, F. Ruric; Human-Vogel, Salomé – Higher Education Research and Development, 2016
A great deal of research within science and engineering education revolves around academic success and retention of science and engineering students. It is well known that South Africa is experiencing, for various reasons, an acute shortage of engineers. Therefore, we think it is important to understand the factors that contribute to attrition…

Teig, Nani; Scherer, Ronny; Kjaernsli, Marit – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2020
Previous research has demonstrated the potential of examining log-file data from computer-based assessments to understand student interactions with complex inquiry tasks. Rather than solely providing information about what has been achieved or the accuracy of student responses ("product data"), students' log files offer additional…

Shen, Kuan-Ming; Lee, Min-Hsien; Tsai, Chin-Chung; Chang, Chun-Yen – International Journal of Science Education, 2016
In the area of science education research, studies have attempted to investigate conceptions of learning, approaches to learning, and self-efficacy, mainly focusing on science in general or on specific subjects such as biology, physics, and chemistry. However, few empirical studies have probed students' earth science learning. This study aimed to…

Yang, Chanho; Noh, Taehee; Scharmann, Lawrence C.; Kang, Sukjin – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2014
Knowledge about students' conceptions is one of the requisite components of pedagogical content knowledge. A keen awareness of students' alternative conceptions provides teachers with information about prospective difficulties students may incur as they make attempts to learn more accurate scientific representations of critical concepts. In this…
