Lewis, Gary J.; Asbury, Kathryn; Plomin, Robert – Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 2017
Background: Childhood behavior problems predict subsequent educational achievement; however, little research has examined the etiology of these links using a longitudinal twin design. Moreover, it is unknown whether genetic and environmental innovations provide incremental prediction for educational achievement from childhood to adolescence.…

Stichter, Erin Christine – Natural Sciences Education, 2020
Soybean yield potential can be increased by increasing the number of pods per plant, which can be achieved by increasing the number of nodes per plant while decreasing internode length to prevent lodging due to excessive height. In an effort to discover the genetic variability for this trait, a genome wide association study (GWAS) was performed on…

Funa, Aaron A.; Ricafort, Jhonner D. – Online Submission, 2019
As technology advances, the demand for innovative instructional materials also increases. As a result, the Department of Education urges teachers to develop instructional materials. This study was conducted at Bulusan National High School, Bulusan, Sorsogon, Philippines SY 2018-2019 which was aimed to develop gamified instructional materials in…

Dryden, Mary – Communique, 2019
School psychologists are asked to provide a number of different services in schools, including evaluating and providing recommendations to educators and parents on children and adolescents with rare genetic conditions. One genetic disorder with physical, cognitive, and behavioral features is Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). PWS is a unique genetic…

Wesseldijk, Laura W.; Mosing, Miriam A.; Ullén, Fredrik – Developmental Psychology, 2019
Both genes and the environment are important for individual differences in expertise, but little is known about gene-environment interactions underlying domain-specific achievement. Here we explored this issue in a large Swedish twin cohort (N = 6,610), using moderator modeling with musical expertise as a model domain. Specifically, we tested…

Eriksson, Miikka; Kärkkäinen, Sirpa; Tahvanainen, Ville – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Technologies may successfully be used to mediate, aid, and diversify learning, but several studies indicate that technologies cannot substitute outdoor learning and its experiential nature. To halt human-induced biodiversity loss, teachers should acquire a deep understanding of the principles of ecology, including the challenging…

Rodriguez, Princess D.; Mariani, Michael; Gay, Jamie; Hogan, Tyler C.; Amiel, Eyal; Deming, Paula B.; Frietze, Seth – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) has become an important tool in the biological sciences and has a growing number of applications across medical fields. Currently, few undergraduate programs provide training in the design and implementation of NGS applications. Here, we describe an inquiry-based laboratory exercise for a college-level molecular…

Tan, Mei; Bowers, Megan; Thuma, Phil; Grigorenko, Elena L. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2020
Efavirenz (EFV) is a well-known, effective anti-retroviral drug long used in first-line treatment for children and adults with HIV and HIV/AIDS. Due to its narrow window of effective concentrations, between 1 and 4 µg/mL, and neurological side effects at supratherapeutic levels, several investigations into the pharmacokinetics of the drug and its…

Duncan, Ravit Golan; Castro-Faix, Moraima; Choi, Jinnie – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2016
The Framework for Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards in the USA emphasize learning progressions (LPs) that support conceptual coherence and the gradual building of knowledge over time. In the domain of genetics there are two independently developed alternative LPs. In essence, the difference between the two progressions…

Kantahan, Sasithorn; Junpeng, Putcharee; Punturat, Sompong; Tang, Keow Ngang; Gochyyev, Perman; Wilson, Mark – International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education, 2020
The main purpose of this study was to design and verify the quality of an assessment aimed at diagnosing scientific misconceptions among students enrolled in 10th-grade biology subjects. A sample consisted of N=200 students from schools under the administration of the Office of Secondary Educational Service 31, Nakhon Ratchasima province. We…

Oztas, Fulya; Oztas, Haydar – Journal of Education and Practice, 2016
Misconceptions are a barrier to understanding biology hence, to promote meaningful learning, it is necessary to overcome these difficulties with the help of different instructional methods rather than traditional instructional methods. Therefore it could be very interesting to find out "how students' prior knowledge of genetics affects…

Starling, Tamara; Maricle, Denise E. – Communique, 2022
Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development of bones and tissues of the face and is characterized by deformities of the ears, eyes, cheekbones, and chin. The signs and symptoms of TCS vary greatly, ranging from unnoticeable to very severe manifestations and malformations. This article provides a history…

Hinojosa, Leighanna; Swisher, Esmarie; Garneau, Nicole – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
The goal of inclusive design to promote participation of marginalised groups in science is ubiquitous across informal science education, and in the growing field of citizen science. Yet the aspiration of equality in the sciences continues to be met with challenges. Despite decades of educational research studying the barriers of participation in…

Aulck, Lovenoor; Nambi, Dev; West, Jevin – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
Effectively estimating student enrollment and recruiting students is critical to the success of any university. However, despite having an abundance of data and researchers at the forefront of data science, traditional universities are not fully leveraging machine learning and data mining approaches to improve their enrollment management…
