Hulings, Melissa – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
This study sought to better understand how past science learning experiences affected preservice elementary teachers, both in terms of their own self-efficacy and their perceptions of science teaching and learning at the beginning of their science methods course. Following an explanatory sequential mixed methods design, this study first involved…

Taylor, Joseph A.; Adams, Catrina T.; Westbrook, Anne L.; Creasap Gee, Jodi; Spybrook, Jessaca K.; Kowalski, Susan M.; Gardner, April L.; Bloom, Mark – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
This article describes the effects of a student-teacher-scientist partnership program on high school students' science outcomes. The design was a cluster-randomized trial with an analytic sample of 36 teachers randomly assigned to teach a photosynthesis- and respiration-focused module including student-designed investigations supported by online…

She, Hsiao-Ching; Lin, Huann-shyang; Huang, Li-Yu – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2019
Abstract The 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) has drawn a substantial amount of attention from science educators and educational policymakers because it marked the first time that PISA assessed students' ability to evaluate and design scientific inquiry using computer-based simulations. We undertook a secondary analysis…

Israel, Maya; Wang, Shuai; Marino, Matthew T. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2016
Extant research reports differential effects related to the efficacy of video games as a means to enhance science instruction. However, there are very few studies examining differences in learning outcomes across student-level independent variables. This study used multilevel modeling to examine the effects of three video game-enhanced life…

Beghetto, Ronald A.; Baxter, Juliet A. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2012
This study had the goal of investigating the association among elementary students' (N = 276) science and math beliefs and the relationship between those beliefs and teachers' ratings of mathematical and science understanding. Results of structural path analysis indicate that in science, intellectual risk-taking (IRT; the willingness to share…

Vedder-Weiss, Dana; Fortus, David – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2012
This is a mix methods follow-up study in which we reconfirm the findings from an earlier study [Vedder-Weiss & Fortus [2011] "Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 48(2)", 199-216]. The findings indicate that adolescents' declining motivation to learn science, which was found in many previous studies [Galton [2009] "Moving to…

Beghetto, Ronald A. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2007
The aim of the present study was to gain a better understanding of students' perceived science competence by examining potentially related beliefs and perceptions in a diverse sample of middle and secondary students (N = 1289). Results of hierarchical regression analysis showed that students' perceived science competence was related to: (a)…

Kahle, Jane Butler; Meece, Judith; Scantlebury, Kathryn – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2000
Examines the influence of standards-based teaching practices on the achievement of urban, African-American, middle school science students. Indicates that teachers who frequently used standards-based teaching practices positively influenced students' achievement and attitudes. Supports the efficacy of high-quality professional development to…

Rivera Maulucci, Maria S.; Brotman, Jennie S.; Fain, Shoshana Sprague – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2015
This study draws on data from a 10-month critical narrative inquiry of science teaching and learning in a third grade, dual language, integrated co-teaching classroom. The teachers were participants in a 14-week science professional development seminar that enrolled inservice and preservice teachers and focused on enhancing science teaching and…
