In respiratory physiology, students must have a good idea about Dalton's Law to understand the effect of water vapor pressure on the partial pressure of the respiratory gases. This illumination has two aims: the first is to introduce a student's misconception about the application of Dalton's Law in respiratory physiology, and the second is to…

This research is a systematic literature review study that aims to explore the evidence in publications that report on the types of misconceptions experienced by students in learning chemistry by providing types of students' chemical misconceptions based on levels and obtaining the correct formulation of misconceptions so that they can be used as…

Background: Pictures drawn by people with aphasia (PWA) are often more challenging to understand than those drawn by healthy people. There are two types of objects: those that tend to be drawn symbolically (symbolically drawn objects--SOs) and those that are likely to be drawn realistically (realistically drawn objects--ROs). Aims: To compare the…

This cross-sectional study investigated the efficacy of an extended theory of planned behavior in predicting academic dishonesty among students of higher education. The participants comprised 328 undergraduates drawn from Nigerian and Malaysian public universities. Existing measures were adapted and validated using Cronbach's alpha statistics and…

Concerns have been raised about how viewing Sexually Explicit Internet Material (SEIM) shapes adolescents' understanding of sexual relationships and has potentially negative impacts. However, research frequently takes a narrow view of adolescent SEIM use and excludes their understandings. The present study explored how 13 participants, aged 14 to…

Purpose: This study aimed to describe the knowledge and alternative conceptions of climate change in a group of Chilean science and non-science teachers with different teaching experiences. Design/Approach/Methods: The study used a quantitative approach with an exploratory, descriptive, and transversal design, in which a Climate Change…

There are a lot of very interesting scientific concepts to learn in natural and social science. The initial concepts that the student possesses may contradict the actual concepts, which is what causes misconceptions. Misconceptions are identified using misconception detection test tools. In fact, the development of the use of diagnostic test…

The paper aims to provide a review of literature that emphasizes students' and teachers' views on the nature of science (NOS) and associated instructional approaches to develop adequate understanding of the NOS that have been employed in different contexts. One hundred and seventy-two (172) studies were selected from ResearchGate, Academia, Google…

Background: Recognizing the relatively few studies that have explored university students' understanding and alternative conceptions in linear and circular motion as well as the relatively few studies that have used 2-dimensional multiple-choice questions (MCQs) in the science education literature, this study set out to contribute to these areas.…

The Kigali Amendment introduced a new family of chemical compounds, which do not contribute to stratospheric ozone depletion but present a high global warming potential, under the watch of the Montreal Protocol in 2016. Earlier this year, a press note from the World Meteorological Organization entitled "Ozone layer recovery is on track,…

Developing an assessment tool to identify mathematical misconceptions is important for early intervention and support for at-risk students. This exploratory sequential mixed methods study aimed to develop and validate a questionnaire for self-reflection on mathematical misconceptions among senior high school students using exploratory and…

This study aims to determine the need for multitiered diagnostic instruments to identify misconceptions and their causes, as well as multi-representational profiles in chemistry lessons starting from grade 10 in the initial to the final material for grade 12. The data analysis technique used in this research is descriptive, namely descriptive…

Antimicrobial resistance poses one of the most significant medical challenges for humanity. The current burden is overwhelming and is projected to escalate rapidly, with predictions for 2050 indicating 10 million deaths per year due to antibiotic-resistant microorganisms. Enhancing public awareness and education on this topic is crucial in efforts…

This paper examines the evolution and characteristics of technological myths surrounding educational technologies (EdTech) in the Spanish media over the past decade, focusing on the case of MOOCs by analysing the representation of MOOCs in mainstream during the 2010s through qualitative discourse analysis of articles published in newspapers during…

This study investigated the impact of the knowledge revision components (KReC) framework on enhancing student conceptual understanding and eliminating misconceptions about matter and change in science lessons. The study used refutation texts and integrated them into the Online Advanced Organizer Concept Teaching Material (ONACOM). The research…
