  • How the Affordances of Different Modeling Tools Impact Kindergartener‐Constructed Models and Modeling Reasoning

    Open Access•Loucas T Louca, Zacharias C Zacharia•ARTICLE•Science Education•2025•References: 71

    This study seeks to enrich our understanding of modeling‐based learning (MbL) in kindergarten science education, investigating the influences of different modeling tools on kindergarten child‐constructed models and their modeling reasoning. Therefore, this multi‐case study aimed at providing in‐depth descriptions of how MbL was enacted by 66 kindergarteners while combining the use of three modeling tools: paper‐and‐pencil, three‐dimensional struc…

  • Examining models constructed by kindergarten children

    Open Access•Loucas T Louca, Zacharias C Zacharia•ARTICLE•Journal of Research in Science…•2023

    Despite its proven added value, modeling‐based learning (MbL) in science is not commonly incorporated into the early grades. Our purpose in this descriptive case study was to enrich our understanding of how kindergarten children enact MbL by examining these children's constructed models and their accompanying oral descriptions of their models. For this purpose, we adopted a drawing‐based modeling approach in which children used annotated drawings…
