Siddiq, Nur Abdillah – Physics Education, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced educational institutions to adjust their learning process to distance education or online learning. This paper explains how to teach optics during the COVID-19 pandemic by implementing project-based learning that can be supervised online. Students are instructed to design, characterize, and optimize droplet lenses…

Ramnarain, Umesh Dewnarain – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
This mixed methods research explored the autonomous experiences of South African school students when participating in a science fair. A prominent global goal for school science education is for students to partake in scientific inquiry in order to acquire understanding of science concepts, the processes and skills of science, and the nature of…

Kittiravechote, Aungtinee – European Journal of Physics Education, 2020
Hands-on projects have been widely used as alternative approaches for teaching and learning of science with direct practical experience on doing to promote students' development of 21st-century skills. Here, we present an implementation of hands-on projects into teaching and learning of magnetic field topic that corresponds with indicators and…

Hurst, Glenn A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2017
A laboratory experiment was developed to enable students to investigate the use of smart hydrogels for potential application in targeted drug delivery. This is challenging for students to explore practically because of the extremely high risks of handling cross-linking agents such as glutaraldehyde. Genipin is a safe and green alternative that has…

Paul, Jürgen; Lederman, Norman G.; Groß, Jorge – International Journal of Science Education, 2016
Experiments are essential for both doing science and learning science. The aim of the German youth science fair, "Jugend forscht," is to encourage scientific thinking and inquiry methods such as experimentation. Based on 57 interviews with participants of the competition, this study summarises students' conceptions and steps of learning…

Bekeris, Victoria; Bonomo, Flavia; Bonzi, Edgardo; Garcia, Beatriz; Mattei, Guillermo; Mazzitelli, Diego; Dawson, Silvina Ponce; Fernandez de la Vega, Constanza Sanchez; Tamarit, Francisco – Astronomy Education Review, 2011
We describe the projects "Eratosthenes 2009" and "Eratosthenes 2010 America," carried out during the International Year of Astronomy (2009) in Argentina and with almost all the countries in North and South America during 2010. More than 15000 students at more than 200 schools each year determined the radius of the Earth using…

Bronson, Scott; Jones, Keith W.; Brown, Maria – International Electronic Journal of Environmental Education, 2013
We describe an interactive collaborative environmental education project that makes advanced laboratory facilities at Brookhaven National Laboratory accessible for one-year or multi-year science projects for the high school level. Cyber-enabled Environmental Science (CEES) utilizes web conferencing software to bring multi-disciplinary,…

Bulunuz, Mizrap – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2015
Problem Statement: Research studies indicate that teachers with negative attitudes toward science tend to use didactic approaches rather than approaches based on students' active participation. However, the reviews of the national academic literature in Turkey located a few research studies on the relationship between playful science experiences…

de Oliveira, Marcos Henrique Abreu; Fischer, Robert – Physics Education, 2017
Ciênsação, an open online repository for hands-on experiments, has been developed to convince teachers in Latin America that science is best experienced first hand. Permitting students to experiment autonomously in small groups can be a challenging endeavour for educators in these countries. We analyse the reasons that cause hesitation of teachers…

Tracy, Charles; Cunningham, Elizabeth – Education in Science, 2014
This article reports on a plea directed to schools in England that changed status to an "academy" and thus lost their Local Authority Radiation Protection Adviser (RPA) service. These schools have been encouraged to do all that they can to hang on to their sources (radioactive equipment used in classroom experiments to investigate…

Langley, Mark – School Science Review, 2014
Science is at heart a practical subject, but the perception of what makes good teaching and learning through practical science is often misunderstood. Through working with teachers on professional development courses at the UK's National Science Learning Centre, and drawing on work carried out by other organisations, we present some thoughts and…
