Too often, mathematics and science are taught in isolation from each other and from meaningful problems that matter to students. This book draws on the authors' experiences with teacher colleagues, including time spent in their classrooms co-developing and refining lessons. The core of their approach is to encourage learners to pursue solutions to…

Peer reviewedPei, Bo; Xing, Wanli; Zhu, Gaoxia; Antonyan, Kristine; Xie, Charles – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Infrared (IR) technologies have been universally acknowledged as a valuable pedagogical tool for exploring novel and abstract scientific subjects in science education. This study explores the roles of IR images played in middle school students' Evidence-based Reasoning (EBR) process in support of the understanding of the heat radiation process.…

Julie Tomczak – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This action research study aimed to find ways to adjust my practice by incorporating inquiry-based, science activities and virtual simulations to improve student conceptual understanding of physical and chemical changes. A multi-lesson, curricular intervention combining inquiry-based activities and virtual simulations was developed using…

Meng-Jun Chen; Hsiao-Ching She; Pei-Yi Tsai – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Despite national curricula and instructional reforms calling for collaborative problem-solving skills (CPS), however, there is an absence of a theory-laden model showing how to effectively construct CPS for science learning. We therefore developed and validated a simulation-based CPS model that exploits its constructs, sequences, and causal…

W.; Buck Bracey, Zoë E.; Deutch Noll, Jamie; Kowalski, Susan M.; Novak, Dawn; Lo, Abraham S.; Landel, Carolyn; Krumm, Andrew; Penuel, William R.; Van Horne, Katie; González-Howard, María; Suárez, Enrique – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
OpenSciEd is an ambitious effort to implement the vision of the "Framework for K-12 Science Education" and the "Next Generation Science Standards" broadly across the United States. The premise of OpenSciEd is that high quality instructional materials can play a critical role in transforming science teaching and learning at a…

Price, Colin – Teaching Science, 2019
This article proposes an evidence-based and engaging approach to teaching the mechanisms driving the movement of tectonic plates that should lead high school students towards the prevalent theories used in peer-reviewed science journals and taught in universities. The methods presented replace the inaccurate and outdated focus on mantle convection…

Williamson, Dolores; Spies, Tracy; Higgins, Kyle; Sparks, Shannon – Journal of the American Academy of Special Education Professionals, 2022
This study measured the effect of an evidence-based science curriculum delivered in both English and Spanish using the preview-view-review (PVR) strategy, on the science vocabulary and content knowledge acquired by students with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities who were learning English. The intervention was compared to the same…

Alexander, Kimberly; Vermette, Paul – Excelsior: Leadership in Teaching and Learning, 2019
For the continuing development of quality instructional practices, educators must have access to the findings of research and be in a position to explore applications of those findings. We think we may have found such a resource: A 2016 book titled "The ABCs of How We Learn: 26 Scientifically proven approaches, how they work, and when to use…

Science includes a multitude of specialized terms that are not consistently taught using effective practices. Often, students with disabilities rely on ineffective strategies in order to memorize word definitions, which inhibits their science achievement. Using a counter-balanced design, we tested whether having access to multimedia videos that…

Irby, Beverly J.; Tong, Fuhui; Lara-Alecio, Rafael; Tang, Shifang; Guerrero, Cindy; Wang, Zhuoying; Zhen, Fubiao – Science Insights Education Frontiers, 2021
In this empirical study we examined the effect of a literacy-infused science intervention on fifth grade economically challenged students' science achievement in the curriculum-based and standardized assessments. A total of 27 treatment students and 20 comparison students from two intermediate schools in a rural district in South Texas in the…

Terrazas-Arellanes, Fatima Elvira; Gallard, Alejandro J.; Strycker, Lisa; Walden, Emily – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2018
Disparities in academic science performance remain for diverse learners, including students with learning disabilities and English learners. Educational technology offers the potential to support diverse learners by taking into account their specific needs and unique strengths. This paper reports on third-year results of a 3-year randomized…

Wolf, Rebecca; Cook, Michael; Reid, Alan; Neitzel, Amanda; Ross, Steven; Risman, Kelsey – Grantee Submission, 2021
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the Literacy-Infused Science Using Technology Innovation Opportunity (LISTO) validation project (Valid 45). LISTO was funded by the Investing in Innovation (i3) Fund and involved a multi-year intervention that provided virtual professional development and coaching, and literacy-infused science curricula to…

Kennedy, Michael J.; Rodgers, Wendy J.; Romig, John Elwood; Lloyd, John Wills; Brownell, Mary T. – Journal of Teacher Education, 2017
Vocabulary knowledge is vital for students' success in school and beyond. However, students with disabilities and others who consistently score below their peers on various measures of vocabulary knowledge have difficulties in secondary-level content area courses. Because many students with disabilities are now educated primarily in general…
