Wegner, Class; Remmert, Kathrin; Ohlberger, Stephanie – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2017
This article deals with a concept helping to reflect on teaching practice in the project "Kolumbus-Kids" at Bielefeld University. Lesson reflection aims at the mediation and training of certain teaching competences of student teachers, and therefore self-reflection is promoted by using the newly developed reflection wiki, its videotaping…

Philipp, Stephanie B.; Tretter, Thomas R.; Rich, Christine V. – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2016
Nine science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) departments across our university developed a program to increase persistence of undergraduate STEM majors. Trained and supported undergraduate teaching assistants (UTAs) implemented active learning strategies such as guided questioning, formative assessments, and metacognitive…

Wheeler, Erin R.; Wischusen, Sheri M. – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2014
The Louisiana State University Biology Intensive Orientation for Students (BIOS) Program has been found to be an effective retention initiative for freshman Biological Science majors (S. M. Wischusen, Wischusen, & Pomarico, 2010; S. M. Wischusen, Wischusen, W. E., 2007). Students who attended the five-day camp out-perform their non-participant…

Foote, Kathleen Teressa – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2014
SCALE-UP (Student-Centered Active Learning Environment with Upside-Down Pedagogies) (Beichner et al., 2007) is a reformed pedagogy and classroom design originally developed for large enrollment university physics courses at North Carolina State University. It is currently being used at over 250 institutions worldwide and has since expanded into…

Turner, Galen E.; Deemer, Eric D.; Tims, Heath E.; Corbett, Krystal; Mhire, Jeremy – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2014
The authors empirically examine the effectiveness of an intervention program designed to facilitate interest in cyber science among high school students (N = 60). Pretest-posttest and mediation designs were used to model self-report data that were collected at pre-camp, during a cyber-related task at mid-camp, and at post-camp. An analysis of…

Adams, Anne E.; Miller, Brant G.; Saul, Melissa; Pegg, Jerine – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2014
Although recent educational reforms emphasize the importance of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), many elementary teachers feel less knowledgeable about STEM content and less comfortable teaching STEM than other subjects. This study examined a teacher education program that utilized place-based pedagogies within an…

Peer reviewedLilly, James Edward; Sirochman, Rudy F. – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2000
Introduces a curriculum model for teaching physical science to the pre-service elementary school teacher entitled "Powerful Ideas in Physical Science (PIPS)". This model was developed by members of the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) and is inquiry-based, hands-on, and discrepant-event based. (Author/MM)

Peer reviewedMesarch, M. A.; Meyer, S. J.; Gosselin, D. C. – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2000
Describes a program created by the Nebraska Earth Science Education Network (NESEN) called "Students and Teachers Exchanging Data, Information and Ideas (STEDII)" for K-12 audiences that emphasizes data collection mixed with weather education. Compares and contrasts the vision for STEDII from NESEN's and the participant teachers' points of view.…
