An investigation of meaningful understanding and effectiveness of the implementation of Piagetian and Ausubelian theories in physics instruction.
(1998)This research suggested that Piaget and Ausubel used different terminology to describe learning yet these theories are similar. Further research is needed to validate this premise and validate the blending of the two theories. -
An investigation of the effect of the science curriculum improvement study's first year unit, Material objects, on gains in reading readiness /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1971) -
Margaret Bryan: Science Education
(2015)Margaret Bryan was a schoolmistress for a boarding school for girls in London, in which she taught mathematics and science. She also published several popular scientific textbooks on astronomy, geography, and natural ... -
Master and novice secondary science teachers' understandings and use of the learning cycle.
(2000)The learning cycle paradigm had been used in science classrooms for nearly four decades. This investigation seeks to reveal how the 1earning cycle, as originally designed, is currently understood and implemented by teachers ... -
Measuring combinatorial logic with materials from three disciplines.
(1982)The results of the study were consistent with the following propositions: (1) The existence or nonexistence of the inhibitor element in combinatorial logic tasks does not have any significant effect on the subjects' ... -

The relationship between an inquiry teaching approach and intellectual development /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1970) -
Relationships among epistemological beliefs, implementation of instruction, and approaches to learning in college chemistry.
(1998)Results of the Learning Approach Questionnaire indicated that meaningful and rote learning approaches are unrelated approaches to learning. Type of instruction was not correlated with learning approach. However, the ... -
Relationships among M-power, teaching methodology cognitive development, and content achievement.
(1980)This investigation used the pretest-posttest control group design to experimentally determine the nature of relationships among M-power, concrete and formal teaching methodologies, cognitive development, and achievement ... -
Relationships among reasoning ability, meaningful learning, and computer-based instruction on students' understanding of Newton's laws.
(1999)The purpose of this study was to better understand the nature and extent of students' understanding of Newtonian physics. This study investigated differential effects of three different instructional treatments (computer ... -
Relationships between concrete and formal operational science subject matter and the intellectual level of the learner /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1973) -
Relationships between formal-operational thought and conceptual difficulties in genetics problem-solving /
(1984)One hundred fifty college general biology students were taught a unit in Mendelian genetics by a traditional lecture method, using the Punnett square model for all practice problems. Students were given a unit test and, ... -
Scaffolded problem-solving, learning approaches and understanding of concepts in an introductory college physics class.
(2000)This study was an exploration of students' use of scaffolded problems as part of their homework in an introductory calculus-based physics class. The study included consideration of the possible relationship of students' ... -
Scientist-teacher interactions: Catalysts for developing transformational classrooms.
(2001)Findings indicate all four teachers valued field experiences in personal ways, developed new understandings of scientific practice and content, and anticipated using their new knowledge upon returning to their classrooms ... -
Self As Praxis: Centering Teacher Identity in Instructional Practices in the Secondary Science Classroom
(2024-05-10)The adoption of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and NGSS-like standards necessitates significantly different ways of thinking about K-12 science instruction as well as corresponding instructional approaches to ... -
The Statistics Concept Inventory: Development and analysis of a cognitive assessment instrument in statistics.
(2006)The Statistics Concept Inventory (SCI) is a multiple choice test designed to assess students' conceptual understanding of topics typically encountered in an introductory statistics course. This dissertation documents the ... -
Studies of the content and process of environmental education.
(2002)In order to examine the extent to which four-year institutions in the U.S. provide for the environmental education of students in nonenvironmental majors, and to identify various approaches to increasing environmental ... -
