Advancing rural science education in Chile through local rural knowledge
This study addresses the advancement of rural science education (RSE) through a focus on water education in Chile’s Los Lagos Region. Employing a Design-Based Research approach with four rural communities, the research first aimed to characterize local rural knowledge (LRK) and identify educational needs regarding local water sources, quality, and infrastructure challenges. Second, it focused on the collaborative co-design with teachers of a cont…
Cultivating relationships for Indigenous futures
This article analyzes the efforts of Cultivating Relationships Collaborative partnering with teachers and Tribes to integrate Indigenous and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics school knowledge, a project of re-learning, un-learning, and the development of Indigenous Land pedagogies with kindergarten to year 12 (K-12) public educators. Cultivating Relationships Collaborative is a co-designed yearlong teacher professional certificate…
Gifts from Dry Creek
This field report grounds the experience of two coaches and ten high schoolers exploring the ecology of Dry Creek, informed by the theory that land is a teacher and gift-giver. As author/coach and co-author, we share the importance of value-shifting education to address the value-system failures at the root of climate change, which threatens Dry Creek and waterways worldwide. We illustrate how a place-based and student-directed stream ecology exp…
Shallow Water Crossings
Background: Outdoor Adventure Education (OAE) predominantly centers learning around individual goal setting and experiences and has not traditionally elevated Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS). Purpose: This research focuses on understanding how student learning and inquiry is affected through OAE that emphasizes the importance of IKS as a starting point for environmental and experiential data collection. Methodology/Approach: Over the course of…
Use of augmented reality in chromatography learning
Developing chemistry students' capability to use representations to explain phenomena is a challenging task for educators. To overcome chemistry students' learning difficulties, strategies that favor the development of visualization capabilities have been identified as productive. We are particularly interested in exploring the use of augmented reality in chemistry education to foster the development of those capabilities in undergraduate student…
Snailed It! Inside the Shell
Snails have occupied an important role in the ideology and religion of the ancient American peoples, who considered them to be magical and used them in ritual ceremonies as ornaments, musical instruments, and architectural elements. Today, they are a valuable study system for understanding biodiversity and evolution due to their remarkable ecological and morphological diversity. Given that many endemic snails are of conservation concern, and that…
