Moritz Krell; Carola Garrecht; Nina Minkley – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
The present study analyzed the structural and the content complexity of 76 preservice science teachers' socioscientific argumentation in the context of a mandatory COVID-19 vaccination. Data were analyzed within the methodological frame of qualitative content analysis. Concerning the structural complexity, the participants' socioscientific…

Hui Jin; Hyo Jeong Shin; Dante Cisterna – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Learning progressions (LPs) are cognitive models that describe the development of scientific knowledge and practices in students. They are constructed based on learning theories and student data. Scholars have advocated for using LPs to align curriculum, instruction, and assessment into a coherent system, and by doing so, promote productive…

Neta Shaby; Orit Ben-Zvi Assaraf; Nicole Pillemer Koch – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
There are relatively few studies examining cooperative learning during laboratory activities in a science museum. This study aims to explore such activities to better understand the nature of cooperative learning, if any, in that setting. The participants in this study were 60 fourth-grade students who visited a science museum lab as part of a…

Nataša Nikolic; Radovan Antonijevic – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Problem-solving is, by nature, a creative process which, by teaching through the implementation of research and discovery activities, allows students to create their knowledge, revise it and link it to broader systems. The aim of the research was to describe and analyse the process of solving biological problems through activities that are…

Ylva Hamnell-Pamment – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Many science students struggle with using scientific language and making sense of scientific phenomena. Thus, there is an increased interest in science education research and public policy with regard to understanding and promoting scientific language use and sensemaking in science classrooms. However, there is a lack of comparative studies on how…

Shu-Fen Lin; Wan-Chin Shie – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Teachers lack effective curriculum-based instruments to assess their students' scientific competence that would provide information for modifying their inquiry instruction. The main purpose of this study was to develop and validate a Curriculum-Based Scientific Competence (CBSC) test to assess students' scientific competence in a 1-semester Grade…

Tytler, Russell; Prain, Vaughan; Kirk, Melinda; Mulligan, Joanne; Nielsen, Chris; Speldewinde, Chris; White, Peta; Xu, Lihua – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Growing research evidence indicates student learning gains from guided representation construction/invention in school science and mathematics. In this inquiry approach, students address challenges around what features of a phenomenon/problem to attend to, what data to collect, how and why, and make collective judgments about multimodal accounts…

Avsar Erumit, Banu; Yuksel, Tugba – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Raising scientifically literate citizens has been the main concern of the science education community. Socioscientific issues (SSIs) provide a context to facilitate individuals to expand their epistemic understanding and develop scientific reasoning skills such as evidence-based argumentation and consensus building. In this qualitative research,…

Kang, Jingoo – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
This study explores the effects of gendered inquiry-based learning (IBL) practices on other science learning experiences and motivations including STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) career aspirations. For this, PISA 2015 data representing the Finnish 15-year-old student population has been selected and analyzed by multiple…

Fortus, David; Lin, Jing; Passentin, Shira – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Science teachers in many countries were required to shift from face-to-face (F2F) instruction to distance learning (DL) during the COVID-19 pandemic. With the aim of helping science teachers learn how to support their students in negotiating such shifts in the future, we used an online motivation survey based on achievement goal theory to…

Aristeidou, Maria; Lorke, Julia; Ismail, Nashwa – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Citizen science offers teachers a way to bring authentic scientific research into their classrooms by providing both teachers and their students with opportunities to contribute to authentic research. The potential of citizen science for science education has already been highlighted in various fields and by various stakeholders. More and more…

Kang, Jingoo; Salonen, Anssi; Tolppanen, Sakari; Scheersoi, Annette; Hense, Jonathan; Rannikmäe, Miia; Soobard, Regina; Keinonen, Tuula – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
In the last decades, secondary school students have indicated a low interest in science and a lack of awareness of authentic science careers that may impede their aspiration to work in science-related fields in future. To raise students' aspirations, several studies used context-based approaches, but few integrated career aspects into the school…

Aglarci Özdemir, Oya; Önen Öztürk, Fatma – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Science fiction (SF) combines realistic and imaginary elements of science and technology and develops students' imagination, creativity, and interest in science. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine SF stories written by pre-service science teachers (PSTs) in terms of various textual and science variables. The case study of SF story…

Jazby, Dan; Widjaja, Wanty; Xu, Lihua; van Driel, Jan H. – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Teacher noticing of student thinking represents a key aspect of teacher expertise as it informs teachers' actions 'on the fly' during a lesson. In science and mathematics education, teacher noticing has been conceptualised as being driven by attending to and making sense of student thinking. A range of models of noticing developed in professional…

Chen, Sitong; Wei, Bing; Zhang, Hongfeng – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
The notion of science identity has been widely discussed in the field of science education in recent years. Many research studies have focused on students' science identity in a general sense in spite of the fact that students are usually exposed to discipline-specific science courses in high school. We argue that it is more appropriate to explore…
