A content analysis of research on technology use for teaching mathematics to students with disabilities: word networks and topic modelingInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 10 - Trang 1-23 - 2023
Mikyung Shin, Min Wook Ok, Sam Choo, Gahangir Hossain, Diane P. Bryant, Eunyoung Kang
The purpose of this study was to conduct a content analysis of research on technology use for teaching mathematics to students with disabilities. We applied word networks and structural topic modeling of 488 studies published from 1980 to 2021. Results showed that the words “computer” and “computer-assisted instruction” had the highest degree of centrality in the 1980s and 1990s, and “learning dis...... hiện toàn bộ
The landscape of PreK-12 engineering online resources for teachers: global trendsInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 2 - Trang 1-15 - 2015
Aikaterini Bagiati, So Yoon Yoon, Demetra Evangelou, Alejandra Magana, Garene Kaloustian, Jiabin Zhu
The newly formed discipline of engineering education is addressing the need to (a) enhance STEM education for precollege students and (b) identify optimum ways to introduce engineering content starting, perhaps, from the early ages. Introducing engineering at the Prekindergarten through 12th grade (PreK-12) education level requires significant changes in teacher preparation and support. It highlig...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluating the impact of malleable factors on percent time lecturing in gateway chemistry, mathematics, and physics coursesInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 9 - Trang 1-23 - 2022

Active learning used in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses has been shown to improve student outcomes. Nevertheless, traditional lecture-orientated approaches endure in these courses. The implementation of teaching practices is a result of many interrelated factors including disciplinary norms, classroom context, and beliefs about learning. Although factors influencin...... hiện toàn bộ
NGSS-based teacher professional development to implement engineering practices in STEM instructionInternational Journal of STEM Education - - 2021
Kimberly B. Christian, Angela M. Kelly, Mónica F. Bugallo
With widespread adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in the USA (US), research is needed on how secondary science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teachers conceptualize the integration of engineering knowledge and practices in traditional STEM classrooms. The present study explored the affective impacts of participation in an engineering education workshop for ...... hiện toàn bộ
Conceptual connections between science and engineering in elementary teachers’ unit plansInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 8 - Trang 1-17 - 2021
Jacob Pleasants, Kristina M. Tank, Joanne K. Olson
Around the world, efforts are underway to include engineering design as part of elementary science instruction. A common rationale for those efforts is that Engineering Design-based Science Teaching (EDST) is a productive pedagogical approach for developing students’ understanding of core science concepts. Effectively utilizing EDST requires that teachers develop design activities that are highly ...... hiện toàn bộ
An exploratory study of informed engineering design behaviors associated with scientific explanationsInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 2 - Trang 1-12 - 2015
Şenay Purzer, Molly Hathaway Goldstein, Robin S Adams, Charles Xie, Saeid Nourian
Design and science inquiry are intertwined during engineering practice. In this study, we examined the relationship between design behaviors and scientific explanations. Data on student design processes were collected as students engaged in a project on designing energy-efficient buildings on a blank square city block surrounded by existing buildings using a computer-aided design program, Energy3D...... hiện toàn bộ
NE STEM 4U: an out-of-school time academic program to improve achievement of socioeconomically disadvantaged youth in STEM areasInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 3 - Trang 1-7 - 2016

The Nebraska Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics 4U (NE STEM 4U) program was initiated at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) in 2013. NE STEM 4U is a student-run, faculty-led program facilitating problem-based learning (PBL) sessions in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) for socioeconomically disadvantaged kindergarten through grade 8 (K-8) students. PBL ...... hiện toàn bộ
Speaking up: a model of self-advocacy for STEM undergraduates with ADHD and/or specific learning disabilitiesInternational Journal of STEM Education - Tập 7 Số 1 - Trang 1-21 - 2020
Pfeifer, Mariel A., Reiter, Eve Melanie, Hendrickson, McKenna, Stanton, Julie Dangremond
Students with disabilities are underrepresented in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses. Students with disabilities who engage in self-advocacy earn higher GPAs and are more likely to graduate from college compared to students with disabilities who do not engage in self-advocacy. We utilized Test’s conceptual framework of self-advocacy, which breaks self-a...... hiện toàn bộ
