Areepattamannil, Shaljan; Khurma, Othman Abu; Ali, Nagla; Al Hakmani, Rehab; Kadbey, Hanadi – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2023
Background: A solid foundation in science is critical to students' success in the 21st century workforce, especially in fields related to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Therefore, high-quality science education is critical to prepare students for the challenges of the future. However, Emirati students have consistently…

Koirala, Kamal Prasad – Diaspora, Indigenous, and Minority Education, 2023
This paper focuses on the context underpinning the implementation of ethno science at the K-12 school science curriculum in the context of Nepal. Since human evolution, Indigenous people have both gained scientific knowledge and practiced scientific skills. This paper refers to this knowledge as Ethno Science/ Indigenous Wisdom. However, hegemonic…

McGregor, Debra, Ed.; Anderson, Dayle, Ed. – Contributions from Science Education Research, 2023
This book presents a wide range of international perspectives that explore the different ways the diverse forms of drama supports learning in science. It illustrates how learning science by adopting and adapting theatrical techniques can offer more inclusive ways for students to relate to scientific ideas and concepts. The theatrical processes by…

Eric Hirsch; Sam Shaw – State Education Standard, 2024
More than a decade ago, the K-12 Framework for Education and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) shifted states' notions of what constitutes the core of science skills and knowledge that students need to thrive in school and beyond. The majority of states adopted standards based on the framework as well as the NGSS. Yet because of the…

K. Rende Mendoza; Carla C. Johnson – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
The teaching of science in K-12 schools has long been criticized as a process that propagates oppression for students who do not conform to entrenched norms of gender, sex, and sexuality. Academic standards, curriculum, and textbooks are rife with rhetoric that reinforces any deviation from cisheterosexuality as aberrant, unusual, or abnormal.…

Upadhyay, Bhaskar; Aleixo, Marina B. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
In this paper, the authors explore how teachers and community members in Nepal come together to transform students' science teaching and science learning experiences. The community members, primarily parents of the students, took the opportunity to drive the kinds of science topics and the nature of science activities the teachers needed to teach…

Zehua Dong; Ming Ming Chiu; Shuqi Zhou; Zihong Zhang – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Building on past studies showing that mobile learning improves learning outcomes and differs within a domain (e.g., science), this meta-analysis models domain-specific differences (e.g., learning activities) that drive these differences in science performance. A systematic database search (i.e., Web of Science, JSTOR, ERIC, PsycINFO, ProQuest…

Okhee Lee; Scott Grapin – Science Education, 2024
The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) provide a vision for contemporary science education with all students, including the fast-growing population of multilingual learners in the United States K-12 context. The shifts heralded by the NGSS have resulted in significant changes to English language proficiency (ELP) or English language…

O'Donnell, Colleen – ProQuest LLC, 2023
With an impetus towards science reform in the United States, citizen science is emerging as a platform with the potential to transform student learning and engagement. While current citizen science studies predominantly focus on student outcomes, there is little empirical evidence that captures the voices of teachers who voluntarily implement…

Miller-Rushing, Anica; Hufnagel, Elizabeth – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
In-service teachers of science work with unique content and pedagogical experiences within a changing educational landscape. Understanding teacher agency in these circumstances will help researchers understand the actions that these teachers take. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to review how the agency of K-12 in-service teachers of science…

Alahmari, Muteeb; Jdaitawi, Malek Turki; Rasheed, Abeer; Abduljawad, Rania; Hussein, Elham; Alzahrani, Mohammad; Awad, Noha – Contemporary Educational Technology, 2023
Digital technology development has led to the creation of various learning options in the science education field. Technology such as gamification has been used in several science areas, uncovering diverse benefits regarding its usage. However, more research is needed to understand how gamification enhances students learning in science fields.…

Osborne, Jonathan; Pimentel, Daniel – Science Education, 2023
In this paper, we argue that the current science curricula are failing to educate students to be competent outsiders to science. Historically, science education has rested on two premises. The first is that it is possible for students to acquire sufficient scientific knowledge from K-12 education to become intellectually independent. That is that…

Cunningham, Kathleen M. W.; Osworth, David – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2023
This study aims to illustrate how states include an improvement science approach to educational improvement in their Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) state plan. Through a qualitative content analysis of 52 state ESSA plans, we propose an introductory organizational typology to categorize states based on their explicit inclusion of improvement…

Price, Nancy A. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2023
The epistemic components of science are included in instruction through the three-dimensional learning of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Students use the Science & Engineering Practices to engage the Disciplinary Core Ideas through the perspective of the Crosscutting Concepts. The NGSS focus on the epistemic aspects that all…
