Megan C. Connor; Jeffrey R. Raker – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Despite institutional reform efforts to increase use of evidence-based instructional practices (EBIPs) in undergraduate chemistry and STEM courses, didactic lecture remains the predominant mode of instruction. Research to inform these initiatives routinely focuses on drivers and barriers to EBIP adoption, with recent work investigating factors…

James Deehan; Amy MacDonald – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2024
In recent decades a body of research has emerged supporting the effectiveness of a plethora of science teaching practices in improving learners' science achievement and scientific literacy. However, if the benefits of evidence-based science practice are to be realised consistently and at scale we need to improve our understanding of how teachers…

Opateye, Johnson Ayodele; Ewim, Daniel Raphael Ejike – Science Education International, 2022
This research focused on the impact of research- and assessment-based instruction on senior high school students' achievement in selected chemistry topics. A 3 × 2 × 2 pre-test and post-test control group in a quasi-experimental research design was used on a population of Grade 11 chemistry students in Ojo Local Government Area of Lagos state. Two…

Barthelemy, Ramón; Lenz, MacKenzie; Knaub, Alexis; Gerton, Jordan; Sandick, Pearl – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
In 2017 the University of Utah experienced a tragedy which catalyzed already active changes in the department. In the aftermath, admissions to the graduate program was paused while new policies were developed and implemented. This article outlines this change process through the perspectives and accounts of those involved. Through in-depth…

Mercer-Mapstone, Lucy; Kuchel, Louise – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2017
Science communication is a diverse and transdisciplinary field and is taught most effectively when the skills involved are tailored to specific educational contexts. Few academic resources exist to guide the teaching of communication with non-scientific audiences for an undergraduate science context. This mixed methods study aimed to explore what…

Charles J. Eick; Michael Dias – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2016
The first author re-entered the middle grades classroom to teach a new National Science Foundation (NSF) physical science curriculum that was designed to foster conceptual change through a scientific approach. The curriculum design met the need and call for reform in science education through its focus on inquiry, evidence-based reasoning, peer…

Lund, Travis J.; Stains, Marilyne – International Journal of STEM Education, 2015
Background: Research at the secondary and postsecondary levels has clearly demonstrated the critical role that individual and contextual characteristics play in instructors' decision to adopt educational innovations. Although recent research has shed light on factors influencing the teaching practices of science, technology, engineering, and…

Mangiante, Elaine Silva – Education Sciences, 2013
Science education reform standards have shifted focus from exploration and experimentation to evidence-based explanation and argumentation to prepare students with knowledge for a changing workforce and critical thinking skills to evaluate issues requiring increasing scientific literacy. However, in urban schools serving poor, diverse populations,…
