Secondary students’ attitudes towards mathematics and science in Ireland
This study examines Irish secondary students’ attitudes towards mathematics and science using latent profile analysis (LPA) on TIMSS 2019 data. Three key research questions guided the analysis: (1) identifying distinct attitudinal profiles, (2) exploring their associations with demographics, achievement, and perceptions of mathematics and science, and (3) comparing these findings with those from Australia and Norway. Four profiles emerged: Resist…
The Positive Influence of Inquiry-Based Learning Teacher Professional Learning and Industry Partnerships on Student Engagement With STEM
School teachers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) face challenges in developing and maintaining high levels of student engagement and achievement in those disciplines. Consequently, declining numbers of students are electing these subjects beyond the compulsory years of schooling. A major factor in student engagement often is curriculum content being relevant to the lives of students outside the classroom. Two key ways te…
Linking K-12 STEM Pedagogy to Local Contexts
Student engagement and learning in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields in primary and secondary schools is increasingly being emphasized as the importance of STEM skills for future careers is realized. Localized learning has been identified as a group of pedagogical approaches that may enhance learning in STEM by making the relevance of STEM clear to students and providing stronger connections to students’ lives and con…
Online educational research with middle adolescent populations

Online surveys are advantageous in recruiting adolescent participants and can be designed for adolescents to provide informed consent without the requirement of parental consent. This study sampled 338 Australian adolescents to participate in a low risk online survey on adolescents’ experiences and perceptions of their learning in science classes, w…
