Yang, Der-Ching; Sianturi, Iwan Andi Jonri – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2021
Numbers and operations is widely considered the most essential domain in elementary school grades. Nevertheless, elementary students in Indonesia have consistently performed unsatisfactorily on this domain in several international mathematics assessments. This study examined 308 Indonesian sixth grade students' current performance(s),…

Holme, Thomas A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Psychologists have studied the question of what happens to naïve or intuitive concepts about science that form before accepted scientific ideas have been taught. Studies find that both the accuracy and time required to decide about the accuracy of carefully crafted statements reveal remnants of intuitive models of science. This is true even after…

Atkinson, David W. – On the Horizon, 2021
Purpose: Much has been written about the crisis in the Humanities even as student interest in the Humanities continues to decline. In the so-called "post-truth," "post-COVID-19" period," however, the Humanities deserve attention for the important role they must play in preparing students for the world during a period of…

Dutton, KaitlynG.; Lipke, Mark C. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Frost diagrams provide convenient illustrations of the aqueous reduction potentials and thermodynamic tendencies of different oxidation states of an element. Undergraduate textbooks often describe the lowest point on a Frost diagram as the most stable oxidation state of the element, but this interpretation is misleading because the thermodynamic…

Graves, Scott L.; Phillips, Shanye; Johnson, Kyanna; Jones, Mark A.; Thornton, Danita – Contemporary School Psychology, 2021
The term social justice is frequently utilized in the field of school psychology. However, a systematic review of this framework in terms of its relationship to research and outcomes has not been undertaken. As such, the purpose of this study was to conduct a bibliometric analysis and case study review of research literature associated with the…

Günter, Katerina P.; Gullberg, Annica; Ahnesjö, Ingrid – Science Education, 2021
Studying biology entails negotiating knowledges, identities, and what paths, more or less well-trodden, to follow. Knowledges, identities, and paths within the very practices of science are fundamentally gendered and it is, therefore, critical to recognize when exploring students' learning and participation in natural sciences. Even though…

Yadigaroglu, Mustafa; Agyan, Zeynep; Demircioglu, Gokhan – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2021
This study aims to determine to what extent high school students are able to associate their knowledge of acid-base concepts with daily life. A form consisting of six open-ended questions was used to collect data in line with the specified purpose. Case study design, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was preferred as a method.…

Butler, Johnnella E. – Liberal Education, 2021
Faculty development programs in higher education frequently focus on educational practices advancing diversity, inclusion, and student success. They also usually address how to handle tense class disruptions arising over controversial topics. What faculty development programs usually fail to tackle, however, are fundamental questions of belonging.…

Kim, Sungki; Paik, Seoung-Hey – Physics Teacher, 2021
The floating and sinking phenomenon related to buoyant force can readily be observed in everyday life and easily demonstrated to young students. However, many students believe that the buoyant force is determined by the object's attributes, such as the shape (e.g., ship) or material (e.g., wood). As a result, students find it challenging to…
