One of the educational resources that Indonesia has produced extensively is e-modules. It is still necessary to investigate and assess e-module development research. Analysis of e-module development publications in Indonesian biology education journals is the goal of this assessment of the literature. Only the JPBI (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi…

Developing the next generation of anatomy educators is an expansive challenge that involves developing pathways for established scientists into the profession, and increasing the number of graduate level trainees who are both interested in anatomy education and qualified for educational work. In this article, we present long-term outcomes from a…

The family plays a vital role in fostering children's learning in science through joint experiences in diverse settings such as homes or museums. Beyond frequency, the quality of parent-child interactions in science significantly influences the children's development. However, research in this area has often focused on single aspects of…

This study introduces an Action Learning -- Professional Development Framework (AL-PDF) designed to enhance research skills among young agricultural scientists in a rural institution. The framework tackles issues such as limited research capacity, the absence of formal professional development (PD) pathways, and limited resources. Beyond our…

This study examined the impact of a teacher professional development (TPD) program on primary school teachers' skills and self-efficacy in integrated language arts, science, and technology (ILS&T) instruction. The program's design is based on the four-component instructional-design (4C/ID) model, validated in many areas for developing complex…

Science education in China has undergone a new round of reform in recent years, emphasizing the development of students' scientific literacy, of which the nature of science (NOS) is an essential component. Curriculum standards are the source of top-down curriculum reform, and the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China promulgated…

Professional development (PD) can support science teachers to learn about instructional reforms, but more work needs to be done on broadening our understanding of how specific PD activities support teacher learning. One understudied PD activity is the "student hat": when teachers engage in student learning activities while considering…

This study aims to develop context-based teaching materials and examine their effects on students' scientific literacy skills. This study adopted the developmental research model by Borg & Gall (1983), which was modified into four stages: needs analysis, model development, model validation and implementation. Experts validated the draft of the…

Despite psychology's position within the National Council for the Social Studies' definition of social studies, the American Psychological Association is advocating the rebranding of psychology as a science course. This study interviews six high school psychology teachers and employs a Foucauldian framework to understand different perspectives on…

High-impact practices (HIPs) are educational practices that foster student success. HIPs have not been widely used in cancer education and research despite the need for students to develop key transferable skills and cultivate social responsibility. Our study addresses this need by implementing four community-based learning HIPs within the context…

This study considers the concept of observer--the fundamental concept axial for fundamental physical theories. The history of the observer concept in physics is reviewed and summarized. In the following, the observer concept is considered with regard to science education where scientific concepts should reflect their status in science. This…

Previously we identified that biomedical science students commonly misunderstand "creativity," mistaking it for "freedom." In the present study, we describe and evaluate a workshop designed to increase students' awareness of creativity as a highly sought-after employability skill and cognitive process applicable to scientific…

Computational thinking (CT) has the potential to enhance learning when integrated into mathematical classroom activities. Teachers are being asked to include CT concepts in their core disciplines; however, there is an open question as to how best to equip teachers to integrate CT into their practice. Oftentimes teacher candidates enter math and…

Curricular guidelines promote standardized approaches to coverage of essential knowledge and skills in undergraduate education. The American Society for Microbiology (ASM) Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate Microbiology were developed in 2012. Continuous, rapid growth of knowledge in science and a dynamic, changing world necessitate updates…

This study focuses on how distance education can be shaped by ChatGPT, one of the most striking examples of generative AI, which is making progress considering current technological developments. Based on the idea that it will be at the center of our lives very soon with the recent developments in artificial intelligence, the study set out to…
