Zubeyde Er – International Journal on Social and Education Sciences, 2023
Water is vital for the survival of living things. It is water that sustains all living organisms, all biological life, and all human activity. Water constitutes 3/4 of the world, 60% of the human body. The need for water is increasing day by day due to the rapid increase in the population and the fact that the water resources remain constant. It…

Himes, Marie; Spires, Hiller; Krupa, Erin; Good, Cameron – Science Teacher, 2020
Although the existence of and access to clean water are essential for sustaining life on Earth, multiple studies have demonstrated students' nascent understanding of basic water principles. Students have misconceptions related to the water cycle (Ben-zvi-Assarf and Orion 2005), groundwater (Dickerson and Dawkins 2004; Covitt et al. 2009), and the…

Cross, Rod – Physics Education, 2020
A standard physics experiment for students is to measure the terminal velocity of an object in air or in glycerine. A more difficult challenge is to measure the terminal velocity in water since the depth of the water needs to be large or the object needs to be dropped in the water at a speed close to its terminal velocity. Results obtained by…

Muchnick; Prajjwal Panday; Denielle Perry; Rebecca Thomas; Anne Toomey; Brian H. Tucker; Camille Washington-Ottombre; Shirley Vincent; Steven W. Anderson; Chelsie Romulo – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2024
Interdisciplinary environmental and sustainability (IES) programs are different from other fields because they focus on a complex integration of humanities, social, and natural sciences concepts centered on the interactions of coupled human and natural systems. The interdisciplinary nature of IES programs does not lend itself to traditional…

Sole, Martin Edward; Barber, Patrick; Turner, Ian – Design and Technology Education, 2021
The economic importance of design, and design engineers to the success of a company has led to the exponential growth in the demand for qualified design engineers. To fill this demand, colleges and universities provide the best training available so that, after graduation these engineers will provide significant input from the first day of work.…

Corinna S. Martarelli; Josua Dubach; Natalie Schelleis; Trix Cacchione; Sebastian Tempelmann – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2025
Virtual reality (VR) can provide access to otherwise inaccessible aspects of the world and thus promote science learning. We developed a VR learning tool about the water cycle, with 11 lessons for classroom teaching at the primary level. We assessed prior knowledge before a four-week intervention and learning outcomes directly after the…

Nick Bailey; Nik Winchester; Neil Ellis – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2025
This paper examines the practice of collision avoidance in Merchant ships to highlight the role of tacit knowledge and collective learning in the formation of professional practice. Analysis of 1,431 recorded VHF radio conversations drawn from real-time ship-to-ship interactions provides a unique window onto professional competence in navigation,…

Seijas, Nahia; Uskola, Araitz – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Citizens show misunderstandigs about groundwater that hinder making informed decisions about problems like the deterioration of aquifers. Science education should address this, including modelling practices about the aquifer model. Physical models (PM) have been extensively used in geology teaching, but students rarely construct, evaluate or…

Bazilio, Arianne A.; Kovarik, Michelle L.; Morrison, Janet F. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Chemical solubility and equilibria are paramount for understanding everyday systems. Recent events have led to more interest by the general public in chemical equilibria that occur in drinking water systems. This presents a great opportunity to increase student interest and engagement in the more complicated aspects of chemical equilibria. Shiny…

Lee, Jihyun; Tomimbang, Adriane Cris; Lim, Jongil – Educational Gerontology, 2022
This pilot study was conducted to identify the effects of an 8-week aquatics program with peer-led learning on the functional fitness, postural stability, self-efficacy, and quality of life in older adults. Twenty older adults with a mean age of 65.5 were assigned to either a non-peer-led group or a peer-led-group. Both groups received 60-min…

Kowzan, Piotr – Australian Journal of Adult Learning, 2022
This is an insight into teaching practice followed by reflections on unfolding multiple crises. On the journey from activism, through academia into deep adaptation, the author dives into the meanings of water to re-calibrate his teaching tools. Using auto-ethnography helps to identify water as a resource, research topic and a refuge. Meanings that…

Scherrer, Benjamin D. – Curriculum Inquiry, 2022
What emerges when climate-related displacement is positioned in conversation within the relational practices of collective resistance and oral tradition? In this article, I consider climate displacement and community placement through multiple layers within present day ecologies, narrative texts, and longer views of time. Situated within Black…
