Demonstrating higher-order thinking skills is crucial for thriving in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment. In science education, inquiry-based learning has increasingly been recognized as a potent approach to stimulate students' higher-order thinking skills. While prior research has shown evidence of its positive…

Direct linkHsiao, Hsien-Sheng; Lin, Yi-Wei; Lin, Kuen-Yi; Lin, Chien-Yu; Chen, Jheng-Han; Chen, Jyun-Chen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
This study used robot-based practices to develop an activity that incorporated the 6E model. The sixth-grade students learned interdisciplinary knowledge about how to use Arduino electronic components, microcontrollers, and hands-on tools to make a "Crab Robot." In addition, the students learned how to use Scratch programming language to…

Wei, Ju-Hui; Chuang, Hsueh-Hua; Smith, Thomas J. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2022
While inquiry-based pedagogy is expected to prepare students well for their future life and work in the modern world, research indicates that teachers still prefer the more traditional lecture-based teaching practices. To explore better the issues underpinning the adoption of inquiry-based teaching, this study hypothesized that inquiry-based…

Ming-Wen Chang; Chien-Chih Chen; Joseph Meng-Chun Chin – British Educational Research Journal, 2025
This case study explores the transformation process and educational outcomes of a small rural public elementary school in Taiwan as it transitioned from a traditional school into a Montessori experimental school. Faced with challenges such as low student motivation and limited resources, the school adopted a bottom-up trial strategy to introduce…

Gwo-Jen Hwang; Shu-Yun Chien; Ting-Wei Chen; Chun-Chun Chang – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2025
Science education aims to enhance students' scientific knowledge and inquiry ability. In recent years, due to the advancements of computer and network technology, as well as the considerations of safety and cost, virtual reality (VR) has been gradually applied in scientific inquiry activities. When implementing inquiry-based learning in the past,…

Tseng, Yu-Jan; Hong, Zuway-R.; Lin, Huann-shyang – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
Inspired by existing literature indicating that reading literacy is significantly associated with scientific reasoning and chemistry conceptual understanding, this quasi-experimental study explored the effectiveness of reflective reading of scientific articles on student inquiry performance. A total of 134 10th graders from southern Taiwan were…

Ming-Chia Lin – Cogent Education, 2024
The study investigates the effects of the Argumentation-Based Inquiry (ABI) approach in dual-language (DL) courses on oral presentation (OP) skills and willingness-to-communicate (WTC) among EFL high school students. Using a mixed-methods research approach with an embedded design model, the study emphasizes the quantitative approach (QUAN) for an…

Fang, Su-Chi – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2021
Inquiry-based science instruction has been advocated for decades. However, the implementation of inquiry teaching and learning in everyday classrooms is rather limited due to various factors. Previous research investigated implementations of inquiry-based teaching at the activity level with self-reported methods. However, little is known about how…

Tang, Hanwei; Qiu, Chen; Meng, Lingqi; Li, Yujia; Zhang, Jiangkun – SAGE Open, 2020
The present study aimed to investigate factors predicting inquiry-based teaching in science across One Belt One Road countries and regions (OBOR economies). Teacher-level (N = 8,603) and school-level (N = 1,385) data were drawn from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2015. Hierarchical linear modeling was adopted for data…
