The role of research process presentations in science education
Laypeople often struggle to interpret the provisional nature of scientific knowledge. While scientific knowledge may be widely accepted within the scientific community, it is continually subject to revision and further development as new studies are published. These characteristics of science, where findings build upon each other over time rather than being entirely replaced by new discoveries, are not always well understood by the public. This b…
Opening the Black Box of Scientific Practices
Understanding scientific practices is fundamental to modern society and to science education. Concepts such as Scientific Reasoning (SR) and the Nature of Science (NOS) are important to operationalize different aspects of these practices. Educational policy organizations and international standards require science education to provide insights into the activities and thought processes of scientists to improve science learning. The implementation …

Capturing Captions
This article outlines how AI methods can be used to identify image captions in a large dataset of digitised historical book illustrations. This dataset includes over a million images from 68,000 books published between the eighteenth and early twentieth centuries, covering works of literature, history, geography, and philosophy. The article has two primary objectives. First, it suggests the added value of captions in making digitized illustration…

Reconfiguring Modernity
Julia Adeney Thomas turns the concept of nature into a powerful analytical lens through which to view Japanese modernity, bringing the study of both Japanese history and political modernity to a new level of clarity. She shows that nature necessarily functions as a political concept and that changing ideas of nature's political authority were central during Japan's transformation from a semifeudal world to an industrializing colonial empire. In p…
Coda
This chapter demonstrates a brief tour of paleobiology, microbiology, and biochemistry, humans trying to come to grips with climate change and to define the endangered human for us. Microbiologists describe the human as a coral reef of many species, evolving at different rates and in different ways. With both paleobiology and microbiology, one can remain essentially organic, natural in the sense of being constituted of organic cells created with …

Illustrations and the Victorian Novel
Illustration was a defining feature of the Victorian novel, despite the fact that it has since been marginalized in both published editions and scholarly work. This essay argues for the significance of illustration as a process of interpretative engagement between texts, images, and readers. In so doing, the essay participates in and outlines the emergence of a new illustration studies, which regards illustration as a distinct object of criticism…
Efficacy of the Responsive Classroom Approach
This randomized controlled field trial examined the efficacy of the Responsive Classroom ( RC) approach on student achievement. Schools ( n = 24) were randomized into intervention and control conditions; 2,904 children were studied from end of second to fifth grade. Students at schools assigned to the RC condition did not outperform students at schools assigned to the control condition in math or reading achievement. Use of RC practices mediated …
