Ryan Pfleger; Gary Orfield – Civil Rights Project - Proyecto Derechos Civiles, 2024
This report analyzes changing racial composition in a comparable subset of schools to enable policy-relevant comparisons between charter and magnet schools. It reports the levels of segregation and diversity in these two systems, which is important because of strong evidence that diverse schools produce educational gains and substantial lifelong…

Xiaobin Dai – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study will explore the experiences and perspectives of teacher effectiveness from those directly involved in arts intensive education at an arts magnet school in the Midwest to gain a deeper understanding of their experience. Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky's social construction theory will serve as the theoretical framework for…

Christopher Wheatley; James Wells; John Stewart – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
The Brief Electricity and Magnetism Assessment (BEMA) is a multiple-choice instrument commonly used to measure introductory undergraduate students' conceptual understanding of electricity and magnetism. This study used a network analysis technique called modified module analysis-partial (MMA-P) to identify clusters of correlated responses, also…

Eder Hernandez; Esmeralda Campos; Pablo Barniol; Genaro Zavala – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
Electricity and magnetism are fundamentally interconnected, as represented by the symmetry in Maxwell's equations. Much of the research on Gauss's and Ampere's laws has focused on their application in calculating electric or magnetic fields. However, there remains a significant gap in the literature in exploring these laws in a broader…

Kyla Adams; Anastasia Lonshakova; David Blair; David Treagust; Tejinder Kaur – Teaching Science, 2024
Quantum science is in the news daily and engages students' interest and curiosity. A fundamental quantum science concept that underpins medical imaging, quantum computing and many future technologies is quantum spin. Quantum spin can explain many physical phenomena that are in the lower secondary school curriculum, such as magnetism and light,…

Little research examines the experiences and perspectives of Asian American parents who participate in K-12 desegregation efforts, such as magnet schools. Conceptually framed by research on Asian American racialization, this qualitative case study investigates 10 Asian American parents in metropolitan Hartford, Connecticut; and the motivations…

Brian Welch – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Science, engineering, technology, and mathematics (STEM) classes are required for families in the United States. Due to this requirement, there have been more STEM focused schools present in the educational landscape. Traditionally a high school offering, middle schools are now developing more focused STEM curricula, opening STEM campuses, and…

Álvaro Suárez; Arturo C. Marti; Kristina Zuza; Jenaro Guisasola – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
We investigate learning difficulties among second-year students in electromagnetism courses when they apply Ampère-Maxwell's law. Using phenomenography, we analyzed written answers from 65 undergraduate physics students to four questions on Ampère's and Ampère-Maxwell's laws. We complemented our research by interviewing 12 students. To design the…

Contribution: A remote laboratory system for induction motors was developed in this study. By creating an original simulated induction motor, the structure of the motor can be observed, and the current and magnetic flux can be measured safely. Background: Electrical machinery has little appeal to young engineers. Such machinery deals with…

Christoph Hoyer; Raimund Girwidz – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Vector fields are a highly abstract physical concept that is often taught using visualizations. Although vector representations are particularly suitable for visualizing quantitative data, they are often confusing, especially when describing real fields such as magnetic and electric fields, as the vector arrows can overlap. The present study…

Magnet schools employ a variety of methods in order to enroll a diverse student body, such as targeted outreach, free and accessible transportation, encouraging choice across school districts, intentional school siting, and employing equitable lottery-based admissions policies. Many magnets also offer innovative programs around an attractive and…

T. Leon Venable – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
As an introduction to quadrupolar effects in NMR spectroscopy, students use low field ([superscript 1]H, 60 MHz), benchtop [superscript 13]C NMR spectroscopy to contrast the spin-spin coupling behavior of [superscript 13]C to the dipolar [superscript 1]H and quadrupolar [superscript 2]D in familiar solvents C(H/D)Cl[subscript 3], C(H/D)[subscript…

Yerin Yoon; Shaun M. Dougherty – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background: Magnet schools emerged during the 1960s as part of an effort to desegregate schools across the United States. Their primary purpose is to provide appealing educational settings to induce voluntary desegregation through parental choices (George & Darling-Hammond, 2021). Some of these magnet schools operate at a regional level to…

Audrey Conway Roberts; R. Joseph Waddington; Shannon Sampson – Journal of Research in Education, 2025
The operationalization of school climate is inconsistent, adding to an unwieldy existing body of climate instruments, bringing into question measurement validity concerns. Further, there is minimal literature regarding if comparisons can be made between different school sectors (i.e., public, private, charter). We seek to understand if a commonly…

Charles L. Glenn – Journal of School Choice, 2024
AI offer first-hand account of a key stage in the development of parental choice in American public schooling, when Massachusetts state officials, concerned not to repeat the trauma and disruption resulting from mandatory reassignment of students to achieve desegregation in Boston, persuaded and helped more than a dozen other cities to adopt plans…
