Completing the progression establishing an international baseline of primary, middle and secondary students’ views of scientific inquiry
Knowledge of scientific inquiry (SI) is considered essential to the development of an individual's Scientific Literacy (SL) and therefore, SI is included in many international science education reform documents. Two previous large scale international studies assessed the SI understandings of students entering middle school and secondary students at the end of their formal K-12 science education. The purpose of this international project was to us…
Mathematical prerequisites for non-STEM programs
Mathematics is applied in a broad range of academic disciplines and thus takes on a paramount role for college access. However, students often take for granted the necessity of mathematics for STEM subjects but are unaware of or insufficiently informed about the role of mathematics for subjects outside of STEM. In fact, there is no in-depth empirical investigation on which mathematical prerequisites are expected by university instructors from inc…
What’s mathematics doing here? The role of mathematics in German Physics Olympiad tasks
Physics competitions target at motivating students for engaging in physics and at promoting students talented in physics. Physics competitions also aim at conveying a picture of physics as a scientific discipline, going beyond regular physics classes in school, and should thus also include a more intense mathematization of physics problems. Given that physics students often struggle with mathematics, mathematics in the competition may pose a chal…
International collaborative follow-up investigation of graduating high school students’ understandings of the nature of scientific inquiry
Understandings of the nature of scientific inquiry (NOSI), as opposed to engaging students in inquiry learning experiences, are included in science education reform documents around the world. However, little is known about what students have learned about NOSI during their pre-college school years. The purpose of this large-scale follow-up international project (i.e. 32 countries and regions, spanning six continents and including 3917 students f…
Synergy effects in learning? The influence of mathematics as a second subject on teacher students’ physics content knowledge
This study explores benefits of studying two related subjects, mathematics and physics, in teacher education. German teacher students study two subjects as a major, which allows for investigating how the development of content knowledge in one subject, mathematics, benefits students’ content knowledge in the other subject, physics. The sample included teacher students from 12 major teacher education universities in Germany. Each of the N = 104 ph…
