Educational practices with gender perspective in science education
This study characterizes the perception of gender-sensitive practices among pre-service teachers and teacher educators in science teacher education programs. A 23-item questionnaire was completed by 238 pre-service teachers and 25 teacher educators to identify gender-sensitive practices recognized in their courses and the number of gender equity activities they participated in. No significant differences were found in the perception of gender-sen…
The moderating effect of metalinguistic reflection on the linguistic resources used in written scientific explanations / Efecto moderador de la reflexión metalingüística en los recursos lingüísticos e…
The objective of this study was to analyse the moderating effect of metalinguistic reflection (MR) on linguistic resources to predict the quality of the scientific explanations produced by 359 fourth-grade students who participated in an instructional proposal on scientific explanations of two different scientific processes. The students’ MR level on the changes in their written explanations was assessed at the beginning and end of each unit acco…
Domain‐general and reading‐specific cognitive flexibility and its relation with other executive functions
Background Cognitive and linguistic factors have been incorporated into models to explain reading comprehension beyond classical models of reading. This study explores the contribution of executive functions, mainly domain‐general and reading‐specific cognitive flexibility, in reading comprehension of science texts in monolingual Spanish speaking upper elementary students. Methods A total of 275 Chilean students from fourth to sixth grade partici…
Reflexión metalingüística y su relación con la calidad de explicaciones científicas
La reflexión metalingüística (RM), entendida como la capacidad de atender conscientemente a la lengua, puede ayudar al escritor en la textualización. En géneros disciplinares, cuya producción es demandante, contar con evidencias de factores para andamiar su construcción es un aspecto clave. Sin embargo, más estudios son necesarios para comprender las características de la RM y la relación con los textos escritos por los estudiantes en géneros dis…
Mapping the astronomy content knowledge of Chilean in-service teachers
This paper reports a mapping of the astronomy content knowledge held by a sample of 171 Chilean in-service teachers, both from primary and secondary education, using a multiple-choice test. The responses were analysed by total achievement, and the proportion of alternative conceptions for each item was identified. Moreover, the test items were divided by Big Ideas in Astronomy and curricular topics to analyse teachers’ performance by subject, and…
Validación de un cuestionario de liderazgo intermedio para profesores responsables de un departamento didáctico
INTRODUCCIÓN. Dada la importancia de liderazgo entre pares, la necesidad de relevar el rol de profesores en posiciones directivas intermedias y la ausencia de un instrumento validado para identificar sus prácticas y ser usado en países de habla hispana, el objetivo de este estudio es reportar la validación y resultados de una versión adaptada en español del cuestionario de liderazgo intermedio diseñado por Highfield (2012). MÉTODO. Por medio de d…
Analysis of student perceptions of scientific models
We present the results of a study of Chilean students’ understanding of scientific models, using a Spanish-adapted version of the Students’ Understanding of Models in Science instrument (Treagust, D. F., Chittleborough, G., & Mamiala, T. L. (2002). Students understanding of the role of scientific models in learning science. International Journal of Science Education, 24(4), 357–368. doi:10.1080/09500690110066485). The study covered 290 students i…
Oportunidades para aprender ciencias en el currículo chileno
Este trabajo describe la organización, distribución y frecuencia de las oportunidades de aprendizaje de las ciencias naturales ofrecidas por la reforma de las Bases Curriculares 2012 para educación básica en Chile. El currículo fue segmentado en elementos que fueron codificados de acuerdo a los contenidos científicos, procesos cognitivos y habilidades científicas presentes/ausentes. Los resultados indican que la mitad de los contenidos científico…
