This study explores benefits of studying two related subjects, mathematics and physics, in teacher education. German teacher students study two subjects as a major, which allows for investigating how the development of content knowledge in one subject, mathematics, benefits students' content knowledge in the other subject, physics. The sample…

The present study aimed to examine the affordances and constraints of small-group discussions in relation to student teachers' learning of science. By drawing on variation theory, this study focused explicitly on the student teachers themselves as the primary agents for providing opportunities for their own learning of science. The results show…

Distance learning has become an important tool in many fields of education. Museums, like other educational institutions, have been offering distance learning programs to their audiences for more than 30 years.
