As a neuroscientist, he has studied how the human brain is constantly rewiring itself, a concept known as brain plasticity. He said the brains of today's students are changing because they are growing up in a digital world. Rather than resisting this change, educators need to embrace it...
The central question underpinning this chapter is “What is the purpose of primary science teacher education?”. Despite the simple framing, this is a question without a definitive, fixed answer as science is inextricably linked to the societies within which it is situated. ...

Learning how to model in science classroom: key teacher's role in supporting the development of students' modelling skills the following research question is discussed: What must teachers do to support the development of modelling skills by students in lessons based on the 'Mod... J Rosária -...
Background: Several of the recent reform efforts in K-12 STEM education (e.g. Next Generation Science Standards [NGSS and Common Core State Standards-Mathematics [CCSS-M]) have included significant emphasis on the practices of STEM. We a... L Nadelson,A Seifert,JK Hendricks 被引量: 7发表...
While mastery of these crosscutting concepts has long been an unstated expectation for students learning about science, NGSS is emphasizing their importance by formally incorporating them into performance expectations for all scientific disciplines in K - 12 education. Examples of Applying Crosscutting ...

N.M. Science Standards Slight Evolution The guiding principle of NGSS is that students learn science best by doing science, Evans says. At the elementary level, the biggest challenge in the dozen states now aggressively implementing NGSS is the availability of science material, Evan says. The key...
