Exploring Teacher Candidates' Sensemaking of Sustainable Energy Education
Transitioning to sustainable energy sources (SE) is considered the fundamental strategy to mitigate the ongoing climate crisis. To achieve this transition, intergovernmental organizations like the International Renewable Energy Agency have prioritized “educating the educators” which aims to empower teachers with tools and knowledge to engage students in the energy transition. Although the body of research on SE has examined Teacher Candidates' (T…
Nurturing science learning amidst adversity
In the contemporary world of science, providing high-quality science education is imperative for all students. While a growing body of research in science education is increasing our understanding of science education for many marginalised populations, very little of that research has focused on science education for refugee students, particularly in refugee camps. This study provides an understanding of how refugee teachers in the Rohingya refug…
Barriers and motivations to conservation behaviors in zoo visitors
This study used the transtheoretical model of behavior change to categorize participants into stages of change groups regarding eleven conservation behaviors. Three main stages of change were identified: precontemplation, contemplation, and action. Participants from different stage placements were interviewed to explore barriers and motivations towards doing different conservation behaviors. Individuals in different stages identified different mo…
Using a collaborative action research approach to negotiate an understanding of formative assessment in an era of accountability testing
Issues and techniques in translating scientific terms from English to Khmer for a university-level text in Cambodia
Teachers and students spend much time interacting with written resources such as textbooks, tests, or worksheets during classroom instruction. What if no text is available, however, in the language of the learners? This case study describes the processes and techniques adopted by two university lecturers in Cambodia, as they translated an L1 (first language) science text into Khmer in a manner that tried to take full account of the cultural, ling…
Profiles of Urban, Low SES, African American Girls’ Attitudes Toward Science
The purpose of this study was to increase the science education community’s understanding of the experiences and needs of girls who cross the traditional categorical boundaries of gender, race and socioeconomic status in a manner that has left their needs and experience largely invisible. A first of several in a series, this study sought to explore how African American girls from low SES communities position themselves in science learning. We fol…
Enfleshing Embodiment
Embodiment as a compelling way to rethink the nature of teaching and learning asks participants to see fundamentally what is at stake within teaching/learning situations, encountering ourselves and our relations to others/otherness. Drawing predominantly on the thinking of John Dewey and Maurice Merleau‐Ponty the body's role within teaching and learning is enfleshed through the concrete experiences of one middle‐school science teacher attempting …
