The objective of this naturalistic study was to explore, model and visualise the learning progress 13-year-old students in domain evolution theory. Data were collected under actual classroom conditions with a sample size 107 learners, which followed teaching unit on Darwin's theory natural selection. Before after sequence, wrote texts that explained an evolutionary phenomenon. Their explanations for change analysed categorised into nine different patterns. Furthermore, we contrasted these...
Problem School and preschool teachers play a key role in the care of children with epilepsy. Yet, data about their knowledge on epilepsy are scarce. Methods Assessment attitudes towards by conducting questionnaire survey Leipzig Blankenburg, Germany, from August 2013 to January 2014. Results 1243 questionnaires were completed 302 school teachers, 883 56 students two unclassified participants. Of respondents, 140 (11%) stated have already been actively involved an emergency situation, another...
Storytelling essentials are stories that direct attention, trigger emotions, and prompt understanding. Citizen science has recently promoted the narrative approach of storytelling as a means engagement people all ages backgrounds in scientific research processes. We seek understanding about typology citizen projects explore to what extent tool can be conceptualized science. In first step, we investigated use integration three European German-speaking countries. conducted low threshold...
Based on the assumption that process of understanding is partly narrative, this study explores potential benefits and limitations using narrative writing in biology education. We investigate what contribution a student-centered intervention can make to conceptual protein biosynthesis context viral infections virus replication. After teaching sequence topic, 68 secondary school students (M = 15.7 years, SD 0.57 years) explained replication written text. One subsample (n 46) was instructed...
The loss of biodiversity and the accompanying “plant blindness” are major problems for mankind. Biology classes in Germany deal with this topic aim enabling students to identify plants their surroundings. Here, process plant identification plays a key role. To render identification, more student-oriented, new digital approaches being developed. Thus, teachers now confronted tools without having exact knowledge added value. This intervention study was therefore conducted order determine...
Zusammenfassung Biologielehrkräfte beklagen einen Mangel an Unterrichtsmaterial zur Förderung der Bewertungskompetenz ihrer Schüler:innen. Schulbücher sollten entsprechendes Unterrichtsmaterial, wie bspw. kompetenzorientierte Aufgaben, enthalten, da sie kultusministeriell legitimiert sind und demnach den Bildungsstandards bzw. Lehrplänen folgen sollten. Daher verwundert beklagte Material. Um das Phänomen besser zu verstehen, wurden die Aufgaben ( n = 39.464) von in Deutschland zugelassenen...
The 2019 published report of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem (IPBES) reveals that decline in species habitats induced by human activities is continuing. School students still have difficulties to understand meaning biodiversity consequences its loss. underlying assumption this study learners do not only need a scientific understanding order perceive it as personally meaningful. Rather, they should also opportunity relate complex topic their...
Abstract Pre-service teacher (PST) training in Germany largely fails to prepare prospective teachers adequately for the subject-specific use of digital media. In order promote their competences as well intention media, needs adapt. Utilizing Theory Planned Behavior (TPB), this study aims identify beliefs on different media biology classroom. Within a weekly course scientific inquiry methods, pre-service used various and wrote reflections advantages disadvantages they used. Through analysis...
Bewertungskompetenz von Schuler/innen zu fordern stellt Lehrkrafte der Biologie vor besondere Herausforderungen, da naturwissenschaftliche Unterricht um eine ethische Dimension erweitert wird. Der vorliegende Beitrag gibt einen Uberblick uber Ansatze fur die Unterrichtspraxis und macht Vorschlag, wie das Professionswissen angehender Biologielehrkrafte mithilfe Ergebnisse biologiedidaktischer Forschung in universitaren Lehre gefordert werden kann. Damit richtet sich dieser insbesondere an...
Problem: Schools and nursery schools care for most children during daytime. Thus, schoolteachers school teachers have an important role to play in the of with epilepsy. Yet, level knowledge about epilepsy among is not known.
