Sokolowski, Andrzej – Physics Education, 2021
Research has identified several students' misinterpretations of the principles of the photoelectric effect (PE). Students cannot interpret the formula using the graph's context despite the linear dependence inherited in it. Many studies pointed out that the graphical representation of kinetic energy of the ejected electrons versus frequency of…

Fick, Sarah J.; McAlister, Anne M.; Chiu, Jennifer L.; McElhaney, Kevin W. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Recent science education reforms, as described in the "Framework for K-12 Science Education" (NRC, 2012), call for three-dimensional learning that engages students in scientific practices and the use of scientific lenses to learn science content. However, relatively little research at any grade level has focused on how students develop…

Little, Sabrina – Journal of Character Education, 2021
In the classical tradition of education that emerged from the ancient Greek paideia, there is a productive pedagogical sequence of mixed methods for virtue education. First, stories of heroes are paired with physical training. Virtue concept-learning comes next, and strategies involving imitation are adjusted as a student intellectually matures.…

Thomas, Nicole Juliana; Vo, Tina – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2021
Natural Selection is prevalent throughout life science learning standards across K-12 contexts. Additionally, undergraduates who are interested in the fields of biology and education must also be well informed on the topic, as it is foundational to some biology research and necessary to touch upon within elementary and secondary classrooms. This…

Karam, Khaled Mostafa; Elfiel, Helmy – Creativity Research Journal, 2021
This paper argues that compression is a hallmark of creativity, demonstrating the effect of the process of compression and decompression on the cultivation of creative potentials. This study also suggests some cognitive strategies by which creative literary compression can be encoded and decoded in the light of some relevant theories. In order to…

Reed, Charlotte R.; Wolfson, Adele J. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2021
Learning progressions (LPs) are descriptions of students' growing sophistication in the understanding of a particular construct through a curricular sequence. They are particularly useful for organizing complex constructs for which students do not necessarily connect concepts as taught in different courses. However, they are challenging to…

Green, Abigail I.; Parent, Kristin N.; Underwood, Sonia M.; Matz, Rebecca L. – American Biology Teacher, 2021
Core chemistry ideas can be useful tools for explaining biological phenomena, but students often have difficulty understanding these core ideas within general chemistry. Connecting these ideas to biologically relevant situations is even more difficult. These difficulties arise, in part, from a lack of explicit opportunities in relevant courses for…
