ABSTRACT PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) is one of two large scale international comparative projects of student assessment that now exert considerable influence upon school science education policy, the other being TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study). This paper focuses on PISA, now the most influential study. This article outlines the origins of PISA, identifies some of the challenges in its construction and the claims made for it. It argues that while the statistical and methodological aspects of PISA have received much research attention, other elements of PISA have been largely ignored. In particular, there are several outcomes of PISA testing that point towards a significant research agenda. In addition, the political, ideological and economic assumptions underpinning the PISA project have implications for school science curriculum policy that deserve closer scrutiny and debate.
摘要PISA(国际学生评估计划)是目前对学校科学教育政策产生重大影响的两个大型国际学生评估比较项目之一,另一个是TIMSS(国际数学与科学研究趋势)。本文的重点是PISA,这是目前最具影响力的研究。本文概述了PISA的起源,确定了PISA构建中的一些挑战以及对PISA的主张。文章认为,尽管PISA的统计和方法方面受到了广泛的研究关注,但PISA的其他元素在很大程度上被忽视了。特别是,PISA测试的几个结果指向了一个重要的研究议程。此外,支撑PISA项目的政治、意识形态和经济假设对学校科学课程政策有影响,值得仔细审查和辩论。

ABSTRACT Studies which consider science teacher identity continue to be a focus for education researchers, particularly given the persistent challenges to retain specialist science teachers. The proliferation of research in this area, without a unifying theoretical framework, has meant the literature is diverse, methodologies are varied, and coverage is patchy. This review article considers to what extent and in which ways the social identity approach (SIA) might provide a useful lens through which to consider middle and/or high school science teacher identity. In doing so, we synthesise the findings from 79 empirical and theoretical publications on science teacher identity in middle and/or high school settings, published since 2000. This review highlights the important role that shared identity and group membership play in developing and sustaining positive identities. We argue that the SIA provides education researchers with a greater understanding of how and why some middle and/or high school science teachers are able to form positive professional identities, whilst others are not. This understanding of both the importance of group membership in the social construction of identities and the processes through which memberships form could helpfully inform teacher education and professional development programmes.
摘要考虑科学教师身份的研究仍然是教育研究人员关注的焦点,特别是考虑到留住专业科学教师的持续挑战。这一领域的研究激增,没有统一的理论框架,这意味着文献多样,方法多样,覆盖范围参差不齐。这篇综述文章考虑了社会认同方法(SIA)在多大程度上以及以何种方式可以提供一个有用的视角来考虑中学和/或高中科学教师的身份。在这样做的过程中,我们综合了自2000年以来发表的79篇关于中学和/或高中环境中科学教师身份的实证和理论出版物的研究结果。这篇综述强调了共同身份和群体成员在发展和维持积极身份方面发挥的重要作用。我们认为,SIA让教育研究人员更好地了解一些中学和/或高中科学教师如何以及为什么能够形成积极的职业身份,而另一些则不然。这种对群体成员身份在身份社会建构中的重要性以及成员身份形成过程的理解,有助于为教师教育和专业发展计划提供信息。

ABSTRACT Difficulties in understanding evolution are often rooted in early childhood, arising from naïve assumptions and cognitive biases. However, literature reviews mainly focus on school and university students’ understanding of evolution, with only limited comprehensive reviews on children in early childhood aged up to 7 years. This systematic review aims to capture precursory concepts in evolution and influencing cognitive biases as documented in the empirical literature. Searches of three databases identified 204 articles, of which 26 were used for further analyses after screening for eligibility. The analyses revealed that even young children are capable of understanding the basic mechanisms of core concepts in evolution, such as variation, inheritance, and natural selection. However, while children’s understanding of the inheritance concept has been investigated intensively, their understanding of variation lacks in-depth research despite its probable influence on natural selection. Existing evidence is contradictory concerning the usefulness of children’s cognitive biases for learning core concepts in evolution: These can serve as stepping stones for learning evolutionary principles, but their usefulness is questioned if children have already developed scientifically correct explanations. More research is clearly needed concerning the reciprocal effects of children’s precursory core concepts in evolution in order to develop effective learning interventions for children.
理解进化的困难往往源于儿童早期,源于天真的假设和认知偏见。然而,文献综述主要集中在中小学生和大学生对进化的理解上,对7岁以下儿童的全面综述有限。这篇系统综述旨在捕捉经验文献中记载的进化和影响认知偏见的前兆概念。对三个数据库的搜索确定了204篇文章,其中26篇用于资格筛选后的进一步分析。分析表明,即使是年幼的孩子也能够理解进化中核心概念的基本机制,如变异、遗传和自然选择。然而,尽管人们对儿童对遗传概念的理解进行了深入的调查,但他们对变异的理解缺乏深入的研究,尽管变异可能会对自然选择产生影响。关于儿童的认知偏见对学习进化中的核心概念的有用性,现有证据是矛盾的:这些偏见可以作为学习进化原理的垫脚石,但如果儿童已经形成了科学正确的解释,它们的有用性就会受到质疑。显然需要更多的研究来了解儿童早期核心概念在进化中的相互影响,以便为儿童制定有效的学习干预措施。

ABSTRACT Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education garnered significant attention in recent years and has emerged as a key field of research globally. The goal of this article is to offer a critical review of how STEM education and its transdisciplinarity were defined and/or positioned in empirical studies published during the early formulation of the field. In particular, we sought to identify how these studies conceptualise learners and learning and portray the underlying assumptions in light of the macrosystemic discourses that often serve as ideological forces in shaping research and practice of STEM education. We examined 154 peer-reviewed articles published between January 2007 and March 2018 and analysed them along several emergent dimensions: their geospatial focus, focal disciplinary areas, methodological and theoretical assumptions, and major findings. Grounded in a critical transdisciplinary perspective, we used critical discourse analysis to identify how macrosystemic and institutionalised forces – overtly and implicitly – shape what counts as STEM education research, including its goals and conceptualisations of learners and learning. Our analysis highlights the need for aesthetic expansion and diversification of STEM education research by challenging the disciplinary hegemonies and calls for reorienting the focus away from human capital discourse.
科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)教育近年来引起了人们的广泛关注,并已成为全球研究的一个重点领域。本文的目的是对STEM教育及其跨学科性如何在该领域早期制定期间发表的实证研究中被定义和/或定位进行批判性回顾。特别是,我们试图确定这些研究如何概念化学习者和学习,并根据宏观系统话语描绘潜在的假设,这些话语通常作为塑造STEM教育研究和实践的意识形态力量。我们研究了2007年1月至2018年3月期间发表的154篇同行评议文章,并从几个新兴维度对它们进行了分析:它们的地理空间重点、重点学科领域、方法和理论假设以及主要发现。基于批判性的跨学科视角,我们使用批判性话语分析来确定宏观系统和制度化的力量-公开和隐性-如何塑造STEM教育研究,包括其目标和学习者和学习的概念。我们的分析强调了通过挑战学科霸权来实现STEM教育研究的美学扩展和多样化的必要性,并呼吁将焦点从人力资本话语中重新定位。

Probability-related naïve ideas across physics topics 物理学主题中与概率相关的天真想法

ABSTRACT In this literature review, we survey student naïve ideas (frequently referred to as ‘misconceptions’) that plausibly relate, at least in part, to difficulty in understanding probability. We collected diverse naïve ideas from a range of topics in physics: Non-linear Dynamics; Cosmology; Thermal Physics; Atomic, Nuclear, and Particle Physics; Elementary Particle Physics; Quantum Physics; and Measurements and Uncertainties. With rare exception, these naïve ideas are treated in the literature to be topic-specific. For example, the idea that ‘only one measurement is needed because successive measurements will always yield the same result’ is treated to be a misconception in Measurements and Uncertainties. In our review, however, we raise the possibility that these diverse naïve ideas have something in common: they are enabled, to varying degrees, by the stance that ‘random is incompatible with predictions and laws’ that researchers in mathematics education have documented. This is important, as it may inform instruction. Namely, it may be the case that it is more effective to treat this underlying cause of student difficulty, rather than the individual naïve ideas themselves.
摘要在这篇文献综述中,我们调查了学生的天真想法(通常被称为“误解”),这些想法似乎至少在一定程度上与理解概率的困难有关。我们从物理学的一系列主题中收集了各种天真的想法:非线性动力学;宇宙学;热物理;原子、核和粒子物理学;基础粒子物理学;量子物理学;以及测量和不确定度。除了极少数例外,这些天真的想法在文献中被视为特定的主题。例如,“只需要一次测量,因为连续的测量总是会产生相同的结果”的想法在测量和不确定度中被视为误解。然而,在我们的综述中,我们提出了这样一种可能性,即这些不同的天真想法有一些共同点:它们在不同程度上是由数学教育研究人员记录的“随机性与预测和规律不兼容”的立场促成的。这一点很重要,因为它可能会为指导提供信息。也就是说,处理学生困难的根本原因可能比处理个人天真的想法本身更有效。

ABSTRACT In this article, we propose an analysis of the state of, and trends in, the field of conceptual change research in science education through the lens of its models. Using a quantitative approach, we reviewed all conceptual change articles (n = 245) published in five major journals in the field of science education in search of the support that their authors give to conceptual change models (CC models). We looked for support in the form of explicit or implicit mentions, favourable and unfavourable position statements and empirical confirmations and refutations. The results present a thorough description of all types of support, as well as their evolution from the early days of the field to today. We also propose a hierarchical list of the 86 CC models that we have recorded, appearing in decreasing order by the support they received from the literature. General comments are formulated in order to provide an interpretation of the field and its evolution.

ABSTRACT A theoretical review of the literature was conducted to understand how environmental identity is currently being interpreted and applied so the construct can be extended to the classroom context appropriately. The review found three key foundational philosophies contributing to the interpretation of environmental identity in the field of education: Eriksonian identity theories, Meadian identity theories, and those grounded in the conservation movement that revolve around understanding and promoting environmentally responsible behaviours. As expected, these foundational theories were inconsistent in the emphasis given to the social versus physical context within which environmental identities develop. Social network analysis was used to analyse the network of literature reviewed. This revealed that Susan Clayton’s interpretation of environmental identity had greatly influenced the educational research reviewed. However, her definition of environmental identity and the environmental identity scale she developed greatly emphasise the physical context. This commonly referenced interpretation recognises nature as the social ‘other’ and leaves little room to recognise the human social ‘other’ in environmental identity development. The author calls for the consideration of both social and physical contexts in environmental identity research, as well as transparency in the interpretation of the construct for research purposes.
摘要对文献进行了理论回顾,以了解当前环境身份是如何被解释和应用的,从而使该结构能够适当地扩展到课堂环境中。该综述发现,有三种关键的基础哲学有助于解释教育领域的环境身份:埃里克森身份理论、米德身份理论,以及那些以理解和促进对环境负责的行为为基础的保护运动。正如预期的那样,这些基础理论在强调环境身份发展的社会与物理背景方面是不一致的。运用社会网络分析法对网络文献进行综述分析。这表明苏珊·克莱顿对环境身份的解释对所回顾的教育研究产生了重大影响。然而,她对环境身份的定义和她开发的环境身份量表极大地强调了物理背景。这种通常被引用的解释承认自然是社会的“他者”,在环境认同发展中几乎没有空间承认人类的社会“他者”。作者呼吁在环境身份研究中同时考虑社会和物理背景,并在出于研究目的解释结构时保持透明。

However, her definition of environmental identity and the environmental identity scale she developed greatly emphasise the physical context. This commonly referenced interpretation recognises nature as the social ‘other’ and leaves little room to recognise the human social ‘other’ in environmental identity development. The author calls for the consideration of both social and physical contexts in environmental identity research, as well as transparency in the interpretation of the construct for research purposes.","PeriodicalId":49262,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Science Education","volume":"56 1","pages":"35 - 76"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/03057267.2020.1736379","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47534442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT In the present meta-analysis, we examine how secondary school characteristics – such as schools’ academic press, school climate, material resources, personnel resources, classroom climate, instructional practices, out-of-school activities, and socioeconomic status (SES) composition – provide opportunities for students to engage in science and maths, and how these matter with regard to students’ cognitive and motivational-affective outcomes. The meta-analysis includes 71 (international) articles from large-scale studies with a total of 3,960,281 students, 260,390 schools, and 285 effect sizes that were transformed to correlation coefficients. Multilevel meta-analyses were performed. Results identified a number of school variables that can be regarded as relevant for making a difference in student outcomes and at the same time be influenced by education. These refer to school variables such schools’ academic press, classroom climate, instructional practices, and out-of-school activities. Moreover, SES composition was significantly related to student outcomes. Material and personnel resources as well as school climate yielded a close to zero effect. No differences were found between cognitive and motivational-affective outcome variables or between science and maths. The results point to the most promising school characteristics for promoting students’ outcomes and emphasise schools’ potential for students’ engagement in science and maths.
在本荟萃分析中,我们研究了中学特征——如学校的学术出版、学校气候、物质资源、人力资源、课堂气氛、教学实践、校外活动和社会经济地位(SES)构成——如何为学生从事科学和数学提供机会,以及这些因素如何影响学生的认知和动机情感结果。荟萃分析包括71篇(国际)大型研究的文章,共涉及3,960,281名学生,260,390所学校,285个效应量转化为相关系数。进行了多水平荟萃分析。结果确定了一些学校变量,这些变量可以被视为与学生成绩的差异有关,同时也受到教育的影响。这些是指学校的变量,如学校的学术出版,课堂气氛,教学实践和校外活动。此外,社会经济地位构成与学生成绩显著相关。物质和人力资源以及学校氛围的影响接近于零。在认知和动机情感结果变量之间以及科学和数学之间没有发现差异。研究结果指出了促进学生成绩的最有希望的学校特点,并强调了学校在学生参与科学和数学方面的潜力。
