What Science Fairs Reveal About STEM Learning
Science fairs have long been promoted as valuable platforms for fostering authentic science learning. With current standards emphasizing active engagement in Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs), there is a growing need to examine how science fairs support students’ development in these areas. This pilot study investigated the learning outcomes of 166 students (grades 6–12) who participated in a statewide science and engineering fair. Using a…
Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. water extract alleviates exercise-induced fatigue by activating mitochondrial biogenesis via the PGC-1α/NRF1/TFAM axis
Preservice Secondary Science Teachers’ Nature of Science Views, Rationales, and Teaching During a NOS Course Guided by RFN
Engaging Preservice Secondary Science Teachers in TeachLivETM to Support English Learners in Developing and Communicating Science Ideas
To meet the needs of English learners (ELs) and the call of the Next Generation Science Standards to engage all students in communicating science ideas, a collaboration between science, second language acquisition, and disciplinary literacy teacher educators resulted in a trifocal approach within a reformed science teacher education program. The purpose of this study is to explore how TeachLivETM, a mixed-reality simulation technology, was used t…
Polymethoxyflavones in citrus extract has a beneficial effect on hypercholesterolemia rats by promoting liver cholesterol metabolism
Traditional Chinese Medicine formula Wubi Shanyao Pills protects against reproductive aging by activating Sirt1/3 to reduce apoptosis
Preparing preservice secondary science teachers to work with multilingual learners’ ideas
Do teaching practices and enjoyment of science matter to science achievement
This study focuses on the effectiveness of two types of teaching practices (i.e., inquiry‐based and teacher‐directed) on students' science achievement, an ongoing contentious issue in science education. It examined the direct and indirect effects of the two types of teaching practices, enjoyment of science, and students' science achievement with the US data of the 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). Results indicated that …
Reflecting upon 30 Years of STEM Partnerships between Industry, University, and Public Schools
The importance of partnerships is critical in educational arenas, but information on how partnerships form with the involvement of corporations, districts, and universities working in harmony is limited in the current literature. The teacher preparation program described in this paper is a “built-to-last” partnership model with over 650 teachers prepared to be teacher-leaders in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. …
Mapping and reflecting on integration of the components of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) for teaching natural selection
The mediation effect of student self-efficacy between teaching approaches and science achievement
Influence of science instruction reform on academic performance of eighth grade students in Chinese inner-Mongolia autonomous region
The Chinese government has implemented centralised science curriculum standards to change science teaching from a didactic to inquiry-based approach to support all students in acquiring science literacy. Framed through theoretical perspectives of inquiry-based instruction and cultural pedagogy, this study examined the influence and impact of these reforms on Chinese science teaching and the performance of 8th grade Chinese students in the Inner-M…
Relationship between Science Teaching Practices and Students’ Achievement in Singapore, Chinese Taipei, and the US
Teaching transformation under centralized curriculum and teacher learning community
Downstream signaling mechanisms of arcuate nucleus malonyl-CoA in the hypothalamic control of energy balance
Implications of arcuate nucleus acc and malonyl-CoA in the regulation of energy balance
