Engagement in scientific discourse is an essential part of becoming a scientist. In this exploratory study, we aim to examine the scientific discourse (and resulting benefits) between undergraduate biology students and professional scientists. We developed a novel method for engaging in scientific discourse, grounded in the theory of legitimate…

Bennett, Nichole; Dudo, A.; Besley, J. C. – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2023
Science communication training programs aim to provide scientists with the skills and confidence to interface with the public about their research. But past research suggests science communication training programs lack strategy, focusing instead on narrow skill-building. Science communication fellowships may differ from other training programs in…

Vasquez-Salgado, Yolanda; Camacho, Tissyana C.; López, Isabel; Chavira, Gabriela; Saetermoe, Carrie L.; Khachikian, Crist – Infant and Child Development, 2023
The current study investigated science identity development among Latinx university students selected for a critical race theory (CRT)-informed undergraduate research experience. Twenty students (12 female, 8 male; M[subscript age] = 22.00; SD = 2.77) enrolled in biomedical-related majors at a 4-year university responded to open-ended questions…

Oskar Marg; Lena Theiler – Research Evaluation, 2023
Transdisciplinary research (TDR) is conceptualized as not only providing societal effects but also benefiting academia. However, recent literature on the evaluation of TDR has focused almost entirely on the societal effects of TDR. A discussion of the scientific effects of TDR is needed to do justice to the potential of this research mode. To…

Buchanan, Alaina – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) have become more commonly incorporated in laboratory courses in undergraduate education. Because CUREs incorporate research within the context of a course, the benefits of mentored research (self-efficacy, science identity, persistence, and more) are extended to each student enrolled. CUREs…

Gallina, Pasquale; Lolli, Francesco; Gallo, Oreste; Porfirio, Berardino – International Journal for Educational Integrity, 2023
Professorships in Italy are assigned following public competitions. However, favouritism affects faculty hiring. Researchers lacking clientelistic support remain excluded from academia and are obliged to seek employment abroad or at non-university institutions, or to abandon their career. Do non-recruited researchers have better or worse…

Kelechi O. Uleanya; Samantha K. Furfari; Leonie C. Jones; Kgato P. Selwe; Amelia B. Milner; Caroline E. H. Dessent – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
In our taught chemistry curricula, the majority of individuals who are used to illustrate historical aspects of chemistry topics are white, western chemists. Decolonizing the undergraduate chemistry curricula is increasingly recognized as an important step toward developing a more inclusive higher-education environment for students from…

Ha, Heesoo; Ha, Minsu – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Creativity is considered a key element of the scientific infrastructure and a driving force of scientific advancement. This study aims to present Korean scientists' voices regarding scientific creativity by investigating their perceptions of scientific creativity and education for it. Extending the phenomenography lens through activity theory, we…

Bartels, Selina; Lederman, Judith – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Scientific literacy is the primary goal of elementary science education. Scientific literacy requires an overall understanding of what science is, and how and why scientific knowledge is developed. The normal assumption is that as students progress in school, they learn more. One would expect students to become more scientifically literate as they…

Kool, Denise; Azevedo, Nathalia Helena; Avraamidou, Lucy – Educational Media International, 2022
Popular films can influence the public's image of women scientists and (re)shape social stereotypes. In this study, we examined how women scientists were portrayed in films in the context of fourth-wave feminism. Twelve characters of women scientists in eight films were analysed using sociological film interpretation across the following…

Anthony Lorsbach; Allison Antink Meyer – American Biology Teacher, 2024
This lesson used the correspondence of Charles Darwin as an exploration of nature of science (NOS) in a historical context. Specifically, we used his original correspondence about his "provisional hypothesis" of pangenesis as a novel way to explore a scientist's social community. Darwin's community of friends and colleagues in the…

Ai Nurlaelasari Rusmana; Rahmi Qurota Aini; Yustika Sya'bandari; Minsu Ha – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2024
Scientists' attitude toward the Mertonian norms of science measures the degree to which scientists adhere to ethical values in research activities. Though the norms are generally applicable in scientific communities, cultural aspects and research experience may create a difference in attitudes. The present study assesses the effect of country of…
