Maria Tamboukou – History of Education, 2024
In this article the author looks at processes of becoming a woman philosopher and scientist in eighteenth-century Europe, by focusing on educational experiences, discourses and practices revolving around the Italian mathematician, scientist and philosopher Maria Gaetana Agnesi. The author uses the Arendtian notion of "agonism" as a lens…

Katie Blocksidge; Hanna Primeau – Journal of Information Literacy, 2024
Information Professionals are avid users of data points to inform their practices, but have we flattened the data to such an extent that we have lost the emotional side of research that students experience? In this article, we will discuss our findings regarding student emotions and information beliefs and share ways in which this data can give…

Avraamidou, Lucy; Schwartz, Renee – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2021
Our purpose in this paper is to put forward an argument about both the need and the value for understanding how the constructs of science identity and the nature of science (NOS) might intersect and intertwine and offer useful insights about science participation in times of crises. Based on our knowledge and understanding of these two research…

Smith, Dorothy V. – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2021
In this article, I use the idea of post-patrimonial governance to consider the science education of future scientists. I argue, with Anna Yeatman, that the politics of our time is structured by a contest between two kinds of post-patrimonial contractualism. Data are reported from a study of contemporary Australian scientists to show that some…

Olson, Don – Physics Teacher, 2021
Most physics teachers have observed the majestic swings of a monumental pendulum at a science museum and have watched long enough to see the plane of oscillation slowly changing direction as Earth turns. The purpose of Don Olson's article is to describe visits to Paris sites related to Jean Bernard Léon Foucault (1819-1868), with a special focus…

Wilson, Cristina G.; Shipley, Thomas F.; Davatzes, Alexandra K. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Previous research demonstrates that domain experts, like ordinary participant populations, are vulnerable to decision bias. Here, we examine susceptibility to bias amongst expert field scientists. Field scientists operate in less predictable environments than other experts, and feedback on the consequences of their decisions is often unclear or…

Gonsalves, Allison J. – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2020
This paper dialogues with Lucy Avraamidou's theoretical contribution Science Identity as a Landscape of Becoming: Rethinking Recognition and Emotionality through an Intersectionality Lens. Avraamidou discusses the centrality of recognition for science identities, and presents an argument for taking up intersectionality as an analytical lens for…

Victoria Nicholas; Mark Hirst; Sarah Chyriwsky; Grahame Danby – Open Learning, 2025
We describe findings from a study based upon a collaborative project carried out online as the end of module assessment activity of a multidisciplinary science module at the UK Open University. Our aim was to determine how well students dealt with working in a team of unfamiliar multidisciplinary scientists and to identify tools and processes that…

Jennifer Riedl Cross – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2025
Through the lens of the talent development megamodel and the higher mastery framework, this instrumental case study examines the career trajectory of a biological anthropologist, Barbara J. King, who became a persuasive science communicator in the struggle for animal justice. Much of her impact stems from her development in two career paths, one…

Bojko, Marta; Kowalczyk, Barbara – International Journal for Academic Development, 2023
In the highly competitive research sector, performance pressure is leading to the stratification of the academic profession, and to difficulties for early-career researchers. Support is therefore vital for talent retention, and to avoid 'brain drain'. However, limited research has distinguished varying models of professional support in research…

Margherio, Cara; Horner-Devine, M. Claire; Mizumori, Sheri J. Y.; Yen, Joyce W. – Race, Ethnicity and Education, 2023
This qualitative study analyzes the relationship between two concepts from critical race theory -- counterspaces and community cultural wealth. Counterspaces are supportive, identity-affirming community spaces, while community cultural wealth highlights the importance of the knowledge, skills, and networks used by individuals belonging to…

Swords, Christina M.; Porter, Jerlym S.; Hawkins, Amy J.; Li, Edwin; Rowland-Goldsmith, Melissa; Koci, Matthew D.; Tansey, John T.; Woitowich, Nicole C. – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2023
The impacts of science are felt across all socio-ecological levels, ranging from the individual to societal. In order to adapt or respond to scientific discoveries, novel technologies, or biomedical or environmental challenges, a fundamental understanding of science is necessary. However, antiscientific rhetoric, mistrust in science, and the…

Arslan, Kevser; Akcay, Hakan; Kapici, Hasan Ozgur – International Journal on Social and Education Sciences, 2023
This study aims to reveal whether there are any relations between secondary school students' perceptions of scientists and the images of scientists in secondary school science textbooks. The participants of the study were 140 secondary school students from a public school. The study is based on a qualitative research methodology. Qualitative…

Shelby Montague – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Calls for increased involvement in science outreach have come from scientists (Alberts, 2018; Friedman, 2008), from professional organizations (Jayaratne et al., 2003; Lee, 2018; Toolin, 2004) and from funding agencies (Broadening Participation, 2008; Catsambis, 1995) to increase students' interest in science, technology, engineering, and…

Baylor, Martha-Elizabeth; Hoehn, Jessica R.; Finkelstein, Noah – Physics Teacher, 2022
Increasingly, the physics community is attending to issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI), both in language and action. We are more publicly recognizing our individual responsibilities as physicists to address social injustice and systemic oppression. To this end, our physics classrooms are key levers for action. While we have made…
