Advancing Interdisciplinary Science Education
The Interdisciplinary Science Assessment of Carbon Cycling II (ISACC II) addresses the growing need for effective interdisciplinary learning assessments in science education. ISACC II expanded the foundational work of ISACC I by targeting a more appropriate grade level, enhancing psychometric evidence, and incorporating new items that address sustainability and real-life challenges. We reported evidence of validity for ISACC II in this study by e…
A scaffolding model for designing and implementing work-integrated learning experiences based on the analysis of the university and company's arrangements
In response to the lack of field experience perceived by employers and recent STEM graduates, Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) arrangements have become more common. However, not all WIL experiences are valuable. Indeed, having students in companies without establishing protocols to protect their participation, meaningful interaction, and psychological safety could be counterproductive to non-traditional students. Furthermore, WIL experiences must b…
Policy Brief
Native stingless bees are vital to the ecological, social, and cultural fabric of Peruvian Amazonian communities. They are essential pollinators, supporting ecosystem regeneration, forest maintenance, local economy, and the biocultural heritage of indigenous peoples. However, these species face escalating threats primarily from deforestation, climate change, and the excessive and inappropriate use of pesticides. Building upon the recently approve…
Traditional ecological knowledge on stingless bees in two Ashaninka communities in the central rainforest of Peru
This article explores the Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) on the management of stingless bees and the cultural use of honey among the Ashaninka communities of Marontoari and Pichiquia in the central Amazon Rainforest of Peru. From March 2019 to November 2022, semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven families dedicated to raising stingless bees. The communities' knowledge includes harvesting honey, particularly from species such…
Artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies generate increasingly sophisticated non‐human cognition; however, foundational learning theories only contemplate human cognition, and current research conceptualizes AI as a pedagogical tool. We argue that the incipient abilities of AI for mutual engagement with people could allow AI to participate as a legitimate member in social constructivist learning environments and suggest some potential structures…
Exploring the impact of an intervention on pre‐service science teachers' attitudes and beliefs about gender and sexual diversity‐inclusive science teaching
Exploring how science teacher education programs can prepare science teachers to support gender and sexually diverse students remains an important area for research. A 5‐week intervention was designed for pre‐service science teachers' (PSSTs), addressing gender and sexual diversity (GSD). The effects of the intervention on PSSTs' attitudes and beliefs about GSD‐inclusive science teaching (GSDST) were explored using a multiple case study research …
Using communities of practice to investigate work-integrated learning in engineering education
Generating a framework for gender and sexual diversity‐inclusive STEM education
Students who identify as LGBTQ continue to report feelings of being unsafe at school because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. Access to a gender and sexual diversity (GSD)‐inclusive curriculum and supportive teachers may positively improve the school climate for LGBTQ students, but these supports are often not included in STEM classrooms. One response is to ensure that STEM teachers are prepared to integrate GS…
Traditional Knowledge of Stingless Bees (Hymenoptera)
This paper describes the traditional knowledge on the management of stingless bee colonies and the use of honey by Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities of the department of Loreto, in the Peruvian Amazon. Semi-structured interviews and collection of voucher bees were carried out from June to August 2016 and from November to December 2017. The informants were selected through intentional non-probabilistic sampling (snowball sampling). During …
Leveraging the epistemic emotion of awe as a pedagogical tool to teach science
Awe is a complex emotion theorised to impact science learning and practice. In science education, awe has the potential to motivate explanation-seeking, promote conceptual change, and instill feelings of connectedness to the natural world. This exploratory study examined teachers’ experiences with awe as well as their uses of awe in their science instruction. Thirty-four elementary (grades 4-5; n =14) and middle school (grades 6-7; n = 20) teache…
A taxonomy of cognitive image functions for science curriculum materials
Pedagogical content knowledge of science teachers includes knowledge of representational forms, such as visual displays. Past research has provided a general means to evaluate pictures, but is not fine-grained on features internal to pictures. Furthermore, many existing picture function typologies consider pictures as subservient to text, though pictures have their own explanatory power. We here adapt a general ‘performative’ image function typol…
Crossing cultural borders
Evolution is an essential underlying concept in biology. Previous research demonstrates that many obstacles exist that prevent successful teaching and learning about evolution. This research study used the theoretical framework of cultural border crossing and its underlying cognitive explanation, collateral learning, to design an intervention for community college students in an introductory biology class for non-science majors. Cultural border c…
A closer look at US schools
The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics of US schools associated with two measures of scientific literacy (content knowledge and “procedural and epistemic” knowledge) using the 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) data. Because outcomes are nested within students, and students within schools, a multivariate three‐level modeling method was employed. About 21% of the total variance in science performance li…
Rhynchophorus palmarum used in Traditional Medicine in the Peruvian Amazon
Ethnoentomological research focuses on the wealth of knowledge about insects used by indigenous communities. Here, we examine the medicinal use of insects, with a particular focus on Rhynchophorus palmarum, also known as suri, by indigenous peoples in the Peruvian Amazon. Between January 2014 and November 2015, a semi-structured survey was conducted in six communities belonging to Kukama-kukamiria, Tikuna, and Awajum ethnic groups. Each participa…
