The progress achieved in the models used by future Spanish primary school teachers on the phenomenon of tides is analysed after implementing a modelling-based didactic sequence. It was implemented throughout ten sessions in two classes (N = 88). An open-ended questionnaire was used as a data collecting instrument. Based on prior studies and the…

The present study aimed to determine the effects of arduino-assisted robotics coding applications integrated into the 5E learning model used in science teaching on students' scientific creativity, robotics attitude and motivation toward science. For this aim, the study was planned according to the convergent parallel mixed research method and was…

Example-based learning often uses a design in which learners first receive basic instructional explanations of new principles and concepts and then examples thereof. In this sequence, it is crucial that learners self-explain by using the content of the basic instructional explanations to elaborate on the examples. Typically, learners are not…

Complex systems are an important topic in science education today, but they are usually difficult for secondary-level students to learn. Although graphic simulations have many advantages in teaching complex systems, scaffolding is a critical factor for effective learning. This dissertation study was conducted around two complementary research…

Teaching and learning are time-dependant processes. It can be hypothesised that the content coherence during a teaching sequence is an important factor of learning. In this perspective, it is of great interest to follow the occurrences of a notion and the development of its meanings in the classroom discourse, all along the various sessions of a…

This bulletin lists materials available in the fall of 1963 to assist educators in their selections of programmed instruction materials, and updates the inaugural issue, "Programs '62." Since the 1962 edition provided a number of first analyses of programmed material available, some of the present statistical data have been related to last year's…
