Cemal Tosun – Science & Education, 2024
The present study aimed to reveal science education research (SER) general trends via VOSviewer version 1.6.17 software program. For this purpose, a bibliometric analysis of 13,242 articles in the Education and Educational Research (E&ER) category of Web of Science (WoS) was performed. It was found that there was a significant increase in…

Marina Martins – Science & Education, 2024
Few empirical studies in Science Education have investigated the contributions of integrating scientific practices such as argumentation and modelling. In this article, I examine the characteristics of high school students' argumentative dialogues in different modelling situations. From this, I discuss the influences of modelling and the nature of…

Li, Xiaoshan; Li, Yanyan; Wang, Wenjing – Science & Education, 2023
Meaningful learning for conceptual change in science education should aim to help students change their existing misconceptions to develop an accurate understanding of scientific concepts. Although collaborative argumentation is assumed to support such processes, its value for conceptual change is unclear. Moreover, the roles of argumentative…

Anisa; Widodo, Ari; Riandi; Muslim – Science & Education, 2023
The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for analyzing classroom argumentation that includes a process of rebutting. A most commonly used framework to analyze argument in science education is Toulmin's Argumentation Pattern. It is useful for analyzing argumentation but it cannot represent the complexity of students' rebuttals during…

Wang, Shutao; Chen, Yaoyao; Lv, Xinlei; Xu, Jianmei – Science & Education, 2023
Bibliometric mapping serves as a method to systematically evaluate and visually demonstrate the development of a research field. CiteSpace and VOSviewer, two research tools of bibliometric mapping, were used in the present study to analyze, synthesize, and visualize the hot topics as well as frontier evolution of science education. Co-authorship…

Archila, Pablo Antonio; Truscott de Mejía, Anne-Marie; Restrepo, Silvia – Science & Education, 2023
In theory, there is broad agreement among science education stakeholders that supporting the achievement of scientific literacy is crucial for citizens to make informed and critical decisions about socioscientific issues (SSI). Likewise, it is widely held that argumentation is an important component of scientific literacy. In practice, however,…

Quality Indicators of an Experienced Middle School Science Teacher's Argument-Based Inquiry Teaching
Soysal, Yilmaz – Science & Education, 2023
The paper presents a study that aimed to reveal the process quality descriptors of an argument-based inquiry approach. Process quality signifies whether a teacher is a better or unsatisfactory implementer of a version of in-class science inquiry. An experienced middle school science teacher was the participant. Based on the initial analysis…

Skoumios, Michael – Science & Education, 2023
The engagement of students in processes for evaluating scientific arguments is particularly important for science education of all students. Research studying students' abilities to evaluate scientific arguments based on their evidence is limited. The present paper investigates the impact of a teaching sequence for temperature and heat, which is…

Demircioglu, Tuba; Karakus, Memet; Ucar, Sedat – Science & Education, 2023
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and adapting the classes urgently to distance learning, directing students' interest in the course content became challenging. The solution to this challenge emerges through creative pedagogies that integrate the instructional methods with new technologies like augmented reality (AR). Although the use of AR in science…

Brohinsky, Jais; Sonnert, Gerhard; Sadler, Philip – Science & Education, 2022
While dissent is recognized as a necessary component of scientific knowledge production, in school settings, it is a double-edged sword that can disrupt and undermine social cohesion just as it can promote thinking and creativity. This pilot study explores patterns of dissent in a science education context. It uses a mixed-methods approach to…

Archila, Pablo Antonio; Molina, Jorge; Danies, Giovanna; Truscott de Mejía, Anne-Marie; Restrepo, Silvia – Science & Education, 2022
The identification and the evaluation of arguments are fundamental elements of critical thinking. However, the explicit promotion of these elements is virtually absent from university science courses. Much of the reason for this is that in most universities, across nearly all disciplines, instructors are required to see the conceptual content…

Smith, Dorothy V. – Science & Education, 2022
Trust arises from confidence in a person or confidence in the practices of an institution. Theorists argue that institutional trust depends, to varying extents on intrapersonal trust, which is trust between people who know each other. Science rests its claim to expert knowledge on the practices of knowledge production engaged in by its…

Soysal, Yilmaz – Science & Education, 2021
The paper reports an empirical study that examined relationships between the implementation quality of an argument-based inquiry (ABI) approach, teachers' talk moves, and students' critical thinking. Students were taught using an ABI approach in which they had opportunities to engage in critical thinking. However, this instructional approach was…

Saribas, Deniz; Çetinkaya, Ertan – Science & Education, 2021
Along with the COVID-19 outbreak, which has been a global threat for public health, the unconfirmed information about the pandemic in circulation has become another threat. Hence, it has become important to improve public understanding of science with a focus on explaining the nature of uncertainty in science and its impacts. The goal of the…

The Covid-19 pandemic is the reason why humanity is paying more attention to the importance of regular and rigorous handwashing. Interestingly, in the nineteenth century, regular and rigorous handwashing was a key (and controversial) solution proposed by the Hungarian obstetrician Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis to cut drastically cases of puerperal…
