McKinley-Hicks, Megan – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2020
This paper highlights an investigation of how middle school students responded to a theatre performance designed to portray science as a humanistic and relatable endeavour that youth -- similar to the youth in the audience -- engage in during their everyday lives. The play included in this study was generated as a part of a design research project…

Scanlon, Eileen – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2010
The role of an educational technologist is difficult to define. This paper reflects on the experience of working on a range of technology enhanced learning in science projects to review a number of working principles which have proved effective in the practice of educational technology. It discusses how these principles relate to the theories in…

Kelly, Martin G. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2013
The Index of Learning Styles (ILS) generates reliable data. Its ability to
characterize learning preference has been validated. However, the ILS
has had very limited application in biology education. In 2009, students in
an introductory biology laboratory completed the ILS. Overall academic
performance (2009) was negatively associated with…

Thompson, Jessica – Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2014
What does it mean for ethnic minority girls, who have historically been marginalized by schools, to "see themselves" in science? Schools fail to create spaces for students to engage their identity resources in the learning of science or to negotiate and enact new science-related identities. This study investigates relationships among…

Babendure, Jeremy; Thompson, Loren; Peterman, Karen; Teiper, Leanne; Gastil, Heather; Liwanag, Heather; Glenn-Lee, Shelley – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2011
The BioBridge Professional Development model was created to bring current and relevant science into the high school classroom. The purpose of this intervention was to connect teachers with relevant science and to create innovative, hands-on activities that engage students, with the goal of increasing student interest in STEM careers. To this end,…
