Since many teachers and students recognize other kinds of knowledge (faith) based on other ways of knowing, consideration
of these realities is appropriate for the science education community. Understanding the multitude of ways that clergy view
relationships between science and faith (i.e. alternative ways of knowing) would assist in understanding various ways that
people address complex issues arising from ideas about science and faith. We administered a questionnaire composed of multiple-choice
and short answer items to 63 United Methodist ministers. Findings included (1) that formal, organized faith contexts (e.g.
church services) serve as informal science education opportunities, (2) participants demonstrated considerable diversity regarding
the types of relationships developed between science and faith, and (3) participants recognized a need exists for better understandings
of science and its relationship to faith for them, their colleagues, and their congregations.

This article discusses the Priority Education Zones project (ZEP) in Mauritius. The original and innovative dimensions of
the project are described, together with the difficulties encountered during the setting-up of the ZEP schools. The article
covers five main issues: the status of the ZEP project; the minimal conditions for success; the implications concerning the
teachers; the obstacles faced; and the strategy devised to implement the ZEP project, while overcoming the obstacles.

The whole mode of Galileo’s discovery of the Law of Inertia is an excellent exemplar of the Nature of Science. The law can,
moreover be shown to be a direct consequence of the hypothesis that space is homogeneous and isotropic and time is homogeneous

In this rejoinder to Bryan Brown and John Reveles, we highlight the facts that (a) sociocultural theories of learning do not
go far enough because they fail to address a number of issues and (b) we require concepts such as power and positionality
to understand science learning.

This paper draws on my personal experiences with coteaching and my participation in the research described by Wassell and
LaVan (2009). It examines the role of coteaching in the development of structures that afforded opportunities for shared reflection and
shared responsibility between stakeholders in the classroom. It also describes how the schema and practices developed through
coteaching and cogenerative dialogue helped mediate the transition between my preservice and inservice teaching experiences.

This paper examines theoretical linkages between Anzaldua’s borderland scholarship, in particular the notion of mestiza consciousness,
and participatory action research. Two studies with high school and college co-researchers falling along different points
of the PAR spectrum are described to illustrate these conceptual linkages. Points in the process including critical decisions
in crafting questions and conducting actions, reflections on who are the knowledge holders and producers, and struggles with
responsibilities and vulnerabilities doing this work, are discussed through a lens of mestiza consciousness.

This article discusses Philip Reeve's young adult science fiction novels as literary collages. It explores the ways in which
the author uses postmodernisms to introduce big ideas and construct a compelling futuristic world that combines fast-paced
adventure with the bildungsroman.

In interviews with over 250 urban young adolescents, many students make it clear that they are acutely aware of the educational
inequities that exist in their schools and that these inequities are having a negative impact on their education. Student
voice is used to highlight urban middle school students’ perspectives on the quality of their education particularly in terms
of curricular issues, teacher quality, and lack of resources.

A research framework for creative and imitative reasoning 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Johan Lithner 《Educational Studies in Mathematics》2008,67(3):255-276
This conceptual research framework addresses the problem of rote learning by characterising key aspects of the dominating
imitative reasoning and the lack of creative mathematical reasoning found in empirical data. By relating reasoning to thinking
processes, student competencies, and the learning milieu it explains origins and consequences of different reasoning types.

Technology in Support of Collaborative Learning 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper reviews the research conducted in the last 20 years on the application of technology in support of collaborative
learning in higher education. The review focuses primarily on studies that use Internet-based technologies and social interaction
analysis. The review provides six sets of observations/recommendations regarding methodology, empirical evidence, and research
gaps and issues that may help focus future research in this emerging field of study.

A great challenge in education research involves the difficulty of differentiating between studies that apply commonly understood
theoretical perspectives and recognizing studies that merely rename old theoretical frameworks. This conflict between intellectual
innovation and intellectual retrofitting emerges as central to Basu, Calabrese-Barton, Clairmont, and Lock’s exploration of
the relationship between critical agency and student identity development in science.

Sixteen Minnesota families with children with disabilities participated in a 2-year interview study of their care experiences.
Findings show that families developed a network of care providers, struggled to pay additional costs for care, were not informed
of community services and programs, and believed that their children received adequate child care. This study highlights the
need to provide information to families and providers and to link services in both rural and urban communities.

This essay on the ethical mission of the university explores extremes of anti-social behavior, visiting numerous crime scenes
before concluding that contemporary higher education has lost the capacity—and even the language—for taking character development
seriously. In his attempt to determine whether coincidently traditional-liberationist-diversiphilic-apathetic colleges can
morally improve their charges, Peter Wood collects a wrenching compendium of violent academic mayhem.

Troubleshooting skills are integral for the Information Technology professional. In order to address faculty concerns that
students were not effectively learning required troubleshooting skills, a standardized troubleshooting methodology (the DECSAR
Method) was created and integrated into the standard curriculum of a college information technology program. Components of
troubleshooting were measured using a pre-/post-testing approach with the Social Problem Solving Inventory—Revised. Testing
indicated improvement in several areas of troubleshooting reinforced by DECSAR. The context in which the troubleshooting methodology
was applied was associated with post-test change.

Approaches to research in the social sciences often embrace schema that are consistent with positivism, even though it is
widely held that positivism is discredited and essentially dead. Accordingly, many of the methods used in present day scholarship
are supported by the tenets of positivism, and are sources of hegemony. We exhort researchers to employ reflexive methods
to identify the epistemologies, ontologies and axiologies that are salient in their scholarship and, when necessary, transform
practices such that forms of oppression associated with crypto-positivism are identified and extinguished.

Program assessments are an essential part of the ongoing survival of teaching centers performed by faculty development personnel
at institutions of higher education. Little research is available to guide developers in performing these assessments. In
this article we describe assessments conducted at three Canadian universities and highlight the theoretical models used to
guide the process. Reflections on the strengths and challenges are discussed for each program assessment for the purpose of
assisting faculty developers in performing similar program assessments of their faculty development offices.

Learning by observing and imitating others has long been recognized as constituting a powerful learning strategy for humans.
Recent findings from neuroscience research, more specifically on the mirror neuron system, begin to provide insight into the
neural bases of learning by observation and imitation. These findings are discussed here, along with their potential consequences
for the design of instruction, focusing in particular on the effectiveness of dynamic vs. static visualizations.
