The Impact of Instructional Guidance on Science Learning in Second-Grade Classrooms
The appropriate level of instructional guidance for students to acquire a deep understanding of the disciplinary core ideas, crosscutting concepts, and science and engineering practices outlined in the Next Generation Science Standards remains ambiguous. To shed light on this important topic, we tested two distinct science programs in a cluster randomized controlled trial involving 11 second-grade classrooms and 185 students. Holding constant con…
Inquiry‐Based Science Instruction for Students With Disabilities
Developing scientific literacy is necessary for students with disabilities (SWD) as it supports the ability to create solutions to real‐world problems and understand current events, and it strengthens critical thinking, problem‐solving, and complex communication skills. The purpose of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to evaluate extant literature on inquiry‐based science interventions for SWD in service of developing scientific practi…
The Role of Instructional Design in the Delivery of Early Science Instruction
A critical tenet of education research is establishing what works. Another is exploring theorized mechanisms of change to help ascertain why academic programs work, for whom, and under which conditions. In other words, unpacking the black boxes of academic programs. This study explored the quality of teachers’ facilitation of (a) scientific investigations and (b) science discourse during and after the implementation of a systematic, explicit seco…
Do Mathematics and Reading Skills Impact Student Science Outcomes
Establishing validated science programs for students with or at risk for learning disabilities requires testing treatment effects and exploring differential response patterns. This study explored whether students’ initial mathematics and reading skills influenced their treatment response to a whole-class, second-grade science program called Scientific Explorers (Sci2). The original Sci2 study employed a cluster randomized controlled design and in…
Efficacy of a Second-Grade Science Program
This study, which was reviewed through the Registered Report process, examined the initial efficacy of the Scientific Explorers program (Sci2) on second-grade students’ science achievement. Sci2 is grounded in the growing body of empirical research on science instruction, embedding principles of explicit instruction within a guided inquiry-based design framework. Eighteen second-grade classrooms were randomly assigned to treatment or control cond…
