Investigating the Evolution of CVS Sub-Skills on High School Students Through the Implementation of Inquiry-Based Learning Experimental Activities in Physics
This exploratory study examines how Control of Variables Strategy (CVS) sub-skills develop among high school students through Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) activities in physics. It specifically assesses students' understanding of four CVS sub-skills (Planning, Identifying, Interpreting, and Understanding) as they engage in Confirmation, Structured, and Guided inquiry activities. A total of 22 students from 10 and 11th grades participated in this …
A Teaching-Learning Sequence on Introducing Aspects of the Control of Variables Strategy
In this study we describe the refinement process from the first to the second phase of a teaching–learning sequence development and implementation. The TLS comprises several experimental activities that aim to support understanding of Control of Variables Strategy (CVS) reasoning in the context of floating/sinking and properties of magnets. The research was carried out during a science laboratory course in a department of early childhood educatio…
Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation of a Teaching–Learning Sequence on Heat Conduction
A review of the literature on students’ ideas about thermal concepts and phenomena indicates that primary students tend to associate material properties with the concept of heat and perceive water and air as good heat conductors. These ideas appear to represent a significant obstacle to the conceptual understanding of heat conduction. In this study, a Teaching–Learning Sequence on heat conduction was designed and implemented in order to capture s…
Does the Understanding of Managing Variables among Pre-Service Early Childhood Teachers Correspond to Distinct Teaching Methods in Their Future Careers
This study aims to examine the views of pre-service early childhood student teachers (referred to as student teachers) regarding the potential impact of an inquiry-based science course on their intention to utilize inquiry-based learning approaches, such as the Control of Variables Strategy (CVS) method. The study comprised a preliminary phase (N = 17) and a primary phase (N = 81). The participants’ level of understanding of the inquiry-based met…
Teaching and learning floating and sinking
Floating and sinking (FS) is a key topic in science education, both at primary and secondary levels. The interpretation of FS phenomena, however, is challenging due to the difficulty of the scientific concepts and explanatory models involved (e.g., density, buoyancy), along with students' everyday experiences, which conflict with scientific explanations. Consequently, many studies over the last few decades have investigated how FS could be taught…
Study of Kindergarten Teachers’ Intentions to Choose Content and Teaching Method for Teaching Science
In this paper, we investigate the intentions of kindergarten teachers to use the content and to apply the teaching methods that they acquired in a one-day teacher training seminar. According to the theory of planned behavior, the answer to this research question is directly related to a series of social-psychological personal criteria assessments, such as an assessment of the personal gains or losses, the opinions of important third persons, the …
