Kathrin Otrel-Cass – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background: In science education asynchronous online interactions have increased dramatically during the recent pandemic and some of these practices will stay. One of the characteristics in asynchronous exchanges is the spacing and sequencing of online interaction. It means that dialogue partners do not necessarily receive immediate feedback as is…

Kok-Sing Tang – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background: With a growing new materialism paradigm and research on multimodality, there is an increasing attention on the role of material objects in science teaching and learning. However, there is currently no available framework, coding scheme, or method of inquiry to specifically analyze the use of material objects in science meaning-making.…

Joseph Paul Ferguson; Lihua Xu; Russell Tytler – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background: In learning astronomy, students need to shift between 3D and 2D representations involving complex interactions between the body and material environment. Little attention has been paid to the iconic nature of this astronomical diagramming. Purpose: This research explored the value for students of diagramming to reveal the structural…

Bravo González, Paulina; Reiss, Michael J. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: There is a growing view that 'Big Ideas of science education' are useful for teaching science but there is not much knowledge of how teachers work with them. Purpose: This study explores the conceptualisation and practice of the use of Big Ideas of science education by primary and secondary teachers in Chile. Sample: A total of 63…

Hadjilouca, R.; Papadouris, N.; Constantinou, C. P. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Developing upper secondary school students' understanding of the nature of science and technology are important priorities in educational systems worldwide. More research is needed to better understand the conditions under which teaching and learning of epistemological insights become possible, as well as the tools that are necessary…

Cheung, Kason Ka Ching; Winterbottom, Mark – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Photomicrographs are major biological representations which help students understand more about the structures of cells and tissues. Owing to their abstract nature, students often rely on representations in textbooks to develop their understanding of photomicrographs. Purpose: This study investigated how students with low, medium and…

Guilfoyle, Liam; Hillier, Judith; Fancourt, Nigel – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Argumentation, that is the coordination of evidence and reasons to support claims, is an important skill for democratic society, developing subject-specific literacies, and can be embedded in multiple school subjects. While argumentation has been extensively researched in science education, interdisciplinary argumentation is less…

Laszcz, Martyna; Dalvi, Tejaswini – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Nanotechnology, a multidisciplinary field with increasing societal importance, demands for an increase in research abilities and capacities. Yet, nanoscience and nanotechnology (NST) are largely inaccessible to K-12 students. This situation demands efforts in research towards bringing NST learning into K-12 classrooms. Purpose: The…

Zamalloa, T.; Sanz, J. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: The importance of attitudes in learning is gaining relevance among researchers and teachers and yet little research has examined students' attitudes specifically in relation to geology. Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine students' attitudes towards geology and with respect to other sciences, as well as to determine the key…

Ma, Xin; Zhang, Yin; Luo, Xingkai – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Although there is an increasing recognition of the importance of critical thinking in science education across the world, the relevant research literature is extremely thin. There is an urgent need to generate more empirical evidence. Purpose: We examined two essential issues concerning critical thinking (the relationship between…

Park, Byung-Yeol; Campbell, Todd; Kelly, Miriah; Gray, Ron; Arnold, Chester; Chadwick, Cary; Cisneros, Laura M.; Dickson, David; Moss, David M.; Rodriguez, Laura; Volin, John C.; Willig, Michael R. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: It is crucial to support students in better understanding water and sustainability issues because water plays a vital role in maintaining global ecosystems, including human life. A wide range of curricular and instructional supports like those embodied in model-based learning (MBL) are necessary for teachers to engage students in the…

Oladejo, Adekunle I.; Nwaboku, Nwabuno C.; Okebukola, Peter A.; Ademola, Ibukunolu A. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Science educators around the world have recognised that difference in performance exists between male and female students in chemistry and there have been several efforts and interventions through research and workshops to bridge this gap. Purpose: Owing to the current growth of the effects of the use of computer simulations on…

Lin, Tzung-Jin – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: The role of students' epistemic understanding of science in mediating their engagement in learning activities and tasks has been highlighted in the literature. Although researchers recognize epistemic knowledge of science as a multi-faceted framework, the so-called person-centered approach that aims to generate meaningful and distinct…

Milanovic, Vesna D.; Trivic, Dragica D.; Tomasevic, Biljana I. – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: In the previous decades many research papers and educational documents have emphasized the importance of the application of history of science in the science education of students. Consequently, chemistry teachers are expected to be familiar with the historical development of science and capable of incorporating historical contents in…

Alhadabi, Amal – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Research has shown that students in the United States have been developing negative perceptions of science as a field of study, which is associated with low science identity. The science identity can be influenced by a variety of personal demographic predictors, non-cognitive science-related variables (e.g. science self-efficacy and…
