Tracy N. Vassiliev; Douglas J. Gardner; David J. Neivandt – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2024
This STEM research project asks middle school or high school students to work towards creating ecologically friendly packaging. Packaging that can be composted instead of thrown away and collected in landfills and oceans like plastics. This inquiry uses nanocellulose and focuses on water permeability. The fibers of nanocellulose can be dried to…

Pallant, Amy; Lee, Hee-Sun – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2015
Modeling and argumentation are two important scientific practices students need to develop throughout school years. In this paper, we investigated how middle and high school students (N = 512) construct a scientific argument based on evidence from computational models with which they simulated climate change. We designed scientific argumentation…
