  • Textbook Representations of Chemical Bonding

    Open AccessUnni Eikeseth, Annette Lykknes et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2026

    Chemical bonding is a fundamental concept in chemistry and is essential for understanding the chemical and physical properties of substances and their interactions. Despite its importance, students often hold alternative conceptions and exhibit poor conceptual understanding. This study examines the extent to which widely used textbooks in Turkey, Norway, and Czechia reflect key recommendations from science education research. We analysed textbook…

  • Teachers’ Understanding of and Practices in Critical Thinking in the Context of Education for Sustainable Development

    Open AccessSónia Martins Félix, Marthe Lønnum et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2025

    Critical thinking (CT) is widely recognised as a key competency in education for sustainable development (ESD). However, international research shows that many teachers feel unprepared to teach CT, especially within the ESD context. Despite its importance, few studies have explored how CT is actually practiced in ESD, particularly in primary and secondary education. This article presents a systematic literature review of 43 qualitative studies pu…

  • Representation of Image Formation—Observation in Optics in Ethiopian Textbooks

    Open AccessEhtegebreal Aregehagn, Annette Lykknes et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2023

    Studies have reported that students find geometric optics topics difficult partly because of representations in textbooks. In Ethiopia, textbooks are the main source of content in schools. Therefore, a study of how textbooks present certain topics can shed light on students’ learning difficulties. This study specifically examines how image formation–observation is presented in Ethiopian textbooks and how these representations might be the possibl…

  • Examining the Effects of Supervised Laboratory Instruction on Students’ Motivation and Their Understanding of Chemistry

    Open AccessMirtachew T Ali, Annette Lykknes et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2023

    This paper examines the impact of supervised laboratory instruction (SLI) on grade 12 students’ understanding of acid–base and solution chemistry topics in the context of Ethiopian secondary schools. A mixed-methods research design was employed, with a purposive sampling of 160 secondary students from six schools in Northwest Ethiopia. The students were divided into two groups: an experimental group (n = 76) and a control group (n = 84). The expe…

  • Let them research with

    Open AccessMadelene Losvik Berntsen, Camilla Berge Vik et al.ARTICLEScience & Education2023

    The French natural philosopher Henri Victor Regnault (1810–1878) was one of many researchers who contributed to the development of the thermometer in the 19th century. In this paper, we use an example from Regnault’s work to explore how the history of thermometry can provide a context for teaching upper-secondary chemistry students about the nature of science (NOS), particularly its aims and values. The study takes form as a hermeneutical spiral,…

  • Appreciated Abroad, Depreciated at Home

    Annette Lykknes, Lise Kvittingen et al.ARTICLEIsis2004Citada por: 1Referencias: 19

    Ellen Gleditsch (1879-1968) became Norway's first authority on radioactivity and the country's second female full professor. From her many years abroad--in Marie Curie's laboratory in Paris and at Yale University in New Haven with Bertram Boltram--she became internationally acknowledged and developed an extensive personal and scientific network. In the Norwegian scientific community she was, however, less appreciated, and her appointment as a pro…
