Wajeeh Daher – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
Researchers pointed at project-based science education encourages students' dialogic practices such as wondering about the scientific phenomenon and asking questions, which may positively affect positively students' democratic practices in the classroom. It is the goal of the present research to verify this issue. Sixty-six Grade 5 students…

Kiss, Anna – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2022
Little is available in mathematics education research about what the teacher can anticipate from the students when applying inquiry-based learning (IBL). Even less is known about how to recognize and exploit on the spot when a mathematical domain, other than the one in focus, is activated in the students' minds. Yet, in tests, in everyday life,…

Michelle Reidel; Ariel Cornett; Erin Piedmont; Kania Greer; Betsy Barrow; Alex Reyes – Social Studies and the Young Learner, 2025
By some estimates, over 1.2 billion tons of soil was blown across the Great Plains during the height of the Dust Bowl. The so-called "black blizzards" these massive dust storms caused suffocated cattle, sickened children, and destroyed thousands of family farms. Formerly prosperous farmers, unsure why they had such bad luck, wondered if…

Guo Su; Jia Sun; Taotao Long; Wenli Chen; Aoxue Mei – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2025
This study explored the impact of "Argumentation-driven inquiry" (ADI) on primary school students' argumentation performance in a blended synchronous learning environment (BSLE). A total of 159 fifth-grade primary school students (79 from an urban school and 80 from a rural school) participated in this quasi-experimental study. Students…

Hüsnüye Durmaz; Medat Mutlu – Alberta Journal of Educational Research, 2023
We investigated the effects of guided inquiry-based laboratory activities on the perceptions of the research skills and inquiry learning skills in science of 5th grade students. The sample of this study consisted of 38 students enrolled in a public secondary school located in the northwest part of Türkiye. This study is based on the non-equivalent…

Erin Hogan; Yuting Sun – Reading Research Quarterly, 2025
Using an explanatory sequential mixed methods approach, this secondary analysis investigated the relations among classroom dialogic interaction, fifth-grade students' reading achievement, and teachers' dialogic stances. First, quantitative analyses of time-sampled lesson observations and state reading test scores suggested that the more class time…

Seokmin Kang; MingTsan Lu; John B. Black; Sungyeun Kim – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background: The theory of embodied cognition claims that body interaction with the environment change how we think and constitute cognition. Accordingly, active learning enriches learning experiences which in turn lead to better learning. Purpose: Although learning by moving one's body is often regarded as active learning, not all body movements…

Chang, Jina; Park, Joonhyeong; Park, Jisun – Asia-Pacific Science Education, 2023
This study aims to explore how to use an AI chatbot pedagogically in scientific inquiry by developing a guided-inquiry activity using an AI chatbot and applying it. The developed guided-inquiry activity consisted of designing and doing inquiry activities using the transmission of sound as the topic. In this activity, a chatbot, which was given the…

Hubbard, Jane; Russo, James; Sullivan, Peter – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
This article is based upon Peter Sullivan's (2021) structured inquiry approach to teaching mathematics, in which the authors take a deep dive into the technique of "Spotlighting" in the "Explore" phase of this model to assist in optimal learning experiences for students. Working from the premise that students are best placed to…

Ryan Williams; Bo Zhu; Max Pardo; Crystal Aguilera; Tara Zuber – American Institutes for Research, 2024
Prosocial and Active Learning (PAL) Classrooms is a year-long teacher professional development program designed to increase students' prosocial behavior and engagement in 5th grade mathematics and science classrooms that use active, team-based lessons by altering the way that teachers interact with students using research-based strategies. The…

David Antonio Rosas; Natalia Padilla-Zea; Daniel Burgos – Smart Learning Environments, 2025
This paper advances in the understanding of motivation in terms of flow in groups from a physiological perspective. We use wearable devices to monitor the heart rate variation during a set of sessions of face-to-face STEAM project-based learning. By using Action Research with mixed-methods design, we observed a set of 28 students in real-world…

Zorn, Kristin; Larkin, Kevin; Grootenboer, Peter – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2022
Engagement in mathematics education is an important factor in a successful student experience. This paper reports findings from a study of Year 5 student perceptions of engagement during a two-week, inquiry-based learning (IBL), problem-posing investigation. The study triangulated data from semistructured interviews, video observations and student…

Hrisa, Karagianni; Psillos, Dimitris – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
This paper investigates whether and how primary school students improve their epistemic understanding about a particular aspect of the nature of inquiry (NOSI), namely, the 'non-linear nature of inquiry' through an explicit-reflective or implicit instruction. The sample consisted of 30 5th grade students, who were randomly divided into two groups:…

Hira Javed; Muhammad Athar Hussain; Mubeshera Tufail – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2024
Traditional teaching practices lack student-focused learning, critical thinking, interactivity, creativity and student's engagement in the classroom, which results in boredom and low motivation among students. Moreover, these practices disregard diversification or variability in learners in a classroom. To engage such learners and create better…
