Lee, Yun Soo; Jang, Yongkyu; Kang, Minsoo – Physical Educator, 2015
Concept map assessment has been applied to many education areas to measure students' knowledge structure. However, the proper and valid use of concept map assessment has not been examined in physical education. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the evidence of validity and responsiveness of the concept map assessment scores in physical…

Changes in Science Teachers' Conceptions and Connections of STEM Concepts and Earthquake Engineering
Cavlazoglu, Baki; Stuessy, Carol – Journal of Educational Research, 2017
The authors find justification for integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in the complex problems that today's students will face as tomorrow's STEM professionals. Teachers with individual subject-area specialties in the STEM content areas have limited experience in integrating STEM. In this study, the authors…

Lebec, Michael; Luft, Julie – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2007
Web-based learning has been proposed as a convenient way to provide professional development experiences. Despite quantitative evidence that online instruction is equivalent to traditional methods (Russell, 2001), the efficiency of this approach has not been extensively studied among teachers. This case report describes learning in an online…
