Teaching Nature of Science
Incorporating Nature of Science (NOS) into science instruction remains challenging for teachers, primarily due to time constraints, limited resources, misunderstandings about NOS, and limited knowledge of successful NOS teaching methods. This study explored the impact of a professional development course based on the Pedagogy of Practice framework on teachers’ views of NOS instruction and their implementation of NOS teaching methods and strategie…
The Intersection Between Social-Institutional Aspects of Nature of Science and Social Justice in Natural History Museum Exhibitions
Natural history museums (NHMs), once seen as elitist and colonial institutions, are now redefining their roles as agents for change and transformation in society. Many are committed to social justice, equity, and community engagement, which establishes them as significant cultural and educational entities. These museums often serve as hubs for scientific research and provide a uniquely authentic environment that promotes public engagement in scie…
Natural History Museum Guides’ Conceptions on the Integration of the Nature of Science
Facilitating the Design and Analysis of Middle School Students’ Reasoning in the Context of Citizen Science
Important everyday decisions warrant the integration of statistical, scientific, and Nature of Science (NOS) reasoning. While each of these three types of reasoning is distinct and has been mostly examined separately, they have many interrelations. A deeper appreciation of the interrelations between the three can greatly inform how to concurrently nurture all three, thus empowering today’s young learners with the necessary skills in our data-driv…

The contribution of a project-based learning course, designed as a pedagogy of practice, to the development of preservice teachers' professional identity
Examining future-oriented discourse within reflective narratives as professional identity development for student teachers
Despite a growing awareness of the importance of future-oriented reflective practices among teacher-education researchers, there is a gap in the literature regarding the question of whether and in what way these kinds of written reflections promote the development of student teachers’ professional identity. To fill this gap, the current study aims to explore the contribution of future-oriented discourse within written reflective narratives to the…
Self-Reported Reasons for Participating in Pro-environmental Citizen Science Activities
The current study examines the common characteristics of citizen science volunteers and the factors that lead them to participate in pro-environmental conservation-related activities, specifically in monitoring butterflies. The research was conducted as a case study and involved the use of qualitative and quantitative methods for gathering and analyzing the data. Findings indicate a complex system of factors, mostly internal, reflecting participa…
Digital curation for promoting personalized learning
The article presents a research study that examined the ways in which digital curation promotes personalized learning, as well as the students’ experiences of this learning process. The study was conducted in the context of K-12 education. Participants spent three months on a project that included curating a personalized digital collection. The study was conducted using a phenomenological qualitative approach for the collection and processing of …
Experiences of preservice teachers exposed to project-based learning
This is a qualitative study that examines Jewish and Bedouin preservice teachers' (n = 76) meaningful experiences in a project-based learning framework, in which they participated as part of their pedagogical coursework. The main goal of the study is to gain insight into participants’ meaningful experiences, i.e. thoughts, feelings, and emotions related to the PBL process. The data collection method consisted of 38 in-depth interviews and 152 ref…
Science teachers' worldviews in the age of the digital revolution
In this qualitative study, we examined the worldviews that contemporary science teachers demonstrate in relation to the digital revolution. The main goal of the study was to gain insight into participants' worldviews as related to the digital revolution, specifically, the contents and structure of their worldviews. The data collection method consisted of in-depth interviews with 30 in-service high-school science teachers. Study findings revealed …
