Research in Science Education

Research in Science Education is an international journal publishing and promoting scholarly science education research of interest to a wide group of people. The journal examines early childhood, primary, secondary, tertiary, workplace, and informal learning as they relate to science education.

In publishing scholarly articles, RISE is looking for articulation of the principles and practices used by scholars to make valid claims about the world and their critique of such claims. Publishing such work is important as it makes these principles and practices known to the scholarly community so that they can be considered, debated, judged, and accepted, rejected or reframed. Importantly, these principles and practices must be constantly advancing in ways that allow our knowledge to advance within the field. In looking for works to publish, RISE will seek articles that advance our knowledge in science education research rather than reproducing what we already know.

Research can take many forms, quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods to name a few. RISE is interested in producing valid and trustworthy research that takes on a variety of forms and embraces new capabilities at hand, particularly around new technologies. Innovative practices and how these relate to science education will be at the forefront of our thinking in RISE.

Scholarly works of interest need to encompass the wide diversity of readership. RISE is the journal associated with the Australasian Science Education Research Association (ASERA), one of the oldest such association in the world. With ASERA’s history from a colonial western tradition, combined with its location within the highly productive and exciting Asian region, the membership of ASERA and the readership of RISE spans the globe and cultural perspectives. Hence, the scholarly works of interest published within RISE need to reflect this diversity. Additionally, they must also include a diversity of form. So, RISE will continue to review articles, editorials, book reviews, and other material deemed appropriate by the Editors.

This is a transformative journal , you may have access to funding.

Topical Collections in RISE

Research in Science Education (RISE) is pleased to announce the introduction of topical collections to complement the ongoing publication of papers through regular and special issues. A topical collection curates papers on a given topic, theme or problem. The articles in a topical collection are published continuously over several issues, making them different from special issues that are time-bounded and assigned to one issue. Articles selected for a topical collection will appear in that collection. At the same time, they will still be published in a regular issue.

Topical collections represent a chance for editors to gather related papers on a topic of contemporary interest to the RISE readership and the wider science education research community. As such, we are interested to develop collections that both consolidate a series of thematically-related papers previously published in RISE and encourage future developments in the field. This approach allows us to connect the rich  historical conversation in RISE with contemporary issues that matter to the science education community.

With this objective, RISE has launched two inaugural topical collections on “Artificial Intelligence in Science Education” and “STEM and teaching engineering design”. Interested authors are encouraged to explore these collections and contribute new articles that build upon the ongoing work within the collection. To read more of these collections, please click here .

Authors wishing to submit their manuscripts to a topical collection can indicate their intention via the Editorial Manager submission system. All submissions to a topical collection will undergo the same peer review process and standards. The Editors-in-Chief have the final discretions to choose and include articles in any collection.

Furthermore, RISE welcomes proposals for new topical collections that meet the following criteria:

1.      Relevance to RISE: The topic should have a solid foundation within RISE, as evidenced by a substantial number of previously published articles in RISE. These articles will be curated to form the initial core of the collection.

2.      Timeliness: The topic should focus on current and urgent issues in science education, demonstrating a strong potential to draw future contributions to the collection

Researchers interested in editing a topical collection are encouraged to contact the Editors-in-Chief.

Call for Papers: Science Education: Fit for the Future

Guest Editors: 

Peta White and Russell Tytler

Please email abstracts to [email protected] before you submit the full manuscripts online .  To read more, please click here

Scientific Research in Education

VIEW LARGER COVER

Scientific Research in Education

Researchers, historians, and philosophers of science have debated the nature of scientific research in education for more than 100 years. Recent enthusiasm for "evidence-based" policy and practice in education—now codified in the federal law that authorizes the bulk of elementary and secondary education programs—have brought a new sense of urgency to understanding the ways in which the basic tenets of science manifest in the study of teaching, learning, and schooling.

Scientific Research in Education describes the similarities and differences between scientific inquiry in education and scientific inquiry in other fields and disciplines and provides a number of examples to illustrate these ideas. Its main argument is that all scientific endeavors share a common set of principles, and that each field—including education research—develops a specialization that accounts for the particulars of what is being studied. The book also provides suggestions for how the federal government can best support high-quality scientific research in education.

Downloading and Using eBooks from NAP

What is an ebook.

An ebook is one of two file formats that are intended to be used with e-reader devices and apps such as Amazon Kindle or Apple iBooks.

Why is an eBook better than a PDF?

A PDF is a digital representation of the print book, so while it can be loaded into most e-reader programs, it doesn't allow for resizable text or advanced, interactive functionality. The eBook is optimized for e-reader devices and apps, which means that it offers a much better digital reading experience than a PDF, including resizable text and interactive features (when available).

Where do I get eBook files?

eBook files are now available for a large number of reports on the NAP.edu website. If an eBook is available, you'll see the option to purchase it on the book page.

There is a productive trajectory of research concerned with the role of technology in science education. Educational researchers have often situated their studies with science domains, given the structured and robust conceptual matter, the defined forms of problem solving and inquiry, or the available research funding (i.e., from governmental science agencies). Studies have investigated the nature of students’ misconceptions and conceptual change, as well as problem solving, argumentation, collaboration, data analysis, design, scientific reasoning, and many other aspects of learning and instruction. Such studies typically employ computer and information technologies in order to support and investigate new forms of learning and instruction. New technologies included scientific visualizations (e.g., animations, simulations, etc.), probeware, models, data analysis, online discussions, and scaffolding environments (i.e., to support inquiry, knowledge building, and knowledge communities). Researchers have explored learning in science classrooms, playgrounds, households, museums, and other informal learning environments.

Review of Research in Education

Marcia Linn

Advances in technology, science, and learning sciences research over the past 100 years have reshaped science education. This chapter focuses on how investigators from varied fields of inquiry who initially worked separately began to interact, eventually formed partnerships, and recently integrated their perspectives to strengthen science education. Advances depended on the broadening of the participants in science education research, starting with psychologists, science discipline experts, and science educators; adding science teachers, psychometricians, computer scientists, and sociologists; and eventually including leaders in cultural studies, linguistics, and neuroscience. This process depended on renegotiating power structures, deliberate funding decisions by the National Science Foundation and others, and sustained, creative teamwork. It reflects a growing commitment to ensure that all learners are respected and that all students learn to address the complex scientific dilemma...

This is the 3rd document of the series, devoted to the experiences related to science education. Its aim is helping GRACE partners reflect on possible GAs to develop in this area during the project implementation period or in the framework of the 8-year Roadmap towards RRI.<br> The overall aim of Science Education is to enhance education processes to attract and better equip future researchers and other societal actors with the necessary knowledge to fully responsibly join research and innovation processes. This also includes initiatives aimed at boosting science literacy in society and sparking the interest of children in science and technology.<br> This short document also considers education initiatives aimed at supporting the diffusion of RRI in higher education settings. The document is organised in four sections, respectively devoted to: Science education with and for schools Science education outreach Internal skills in science education and RRI Governance structu...

As science teachers and science educators, we belong to a unique group of individuals. We strive to improve education by talking critically about ideas related to science education, making observations about teacher and student learning, and collecting data that we hope will shed light on the learning and teaching process of teachers and students. As we communicate with each other, we suggest innovations and confirm existing practices. Communication occurs in different venues and includes participating in informal discussions, conferences, and meetings, as well as writing e-mails, posting our findings on web pages, and publishing our work. This last venue of communication-the publishing of our work-is the focus of this editorial. Academics and educators are often funded by public dollars. We share our work with each other in order to advance the field, but also because we have a responsibility to do so. By communicating frequently, we can build upon the knowledge base in science edu...

Shodh Sari- An International Multidisciplinary Journal

Science education has been recording dismal academic achievement, skills and attitudinal outcomes in Nigeria. The students, right from the basic education to the tertiary level lack 21 st century skills of critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, citizenship, selfregulation, time management, knowledge construction, problem solving, digital literacy skills and many other positive skills expedients for proper employability and entrepreneurship. The conventional, didactic, non-heuristic instructional strategy adopted in teaching science education in the country is already dated at the face of Covid-19 and post-Covid-19 pandemic. The National Science Teaching Association (NSTA, 2012, 2020) of America recommended the Next Generation Science Standard (NGSS) as the trending path to science education productivity through technology integration and reflective thinking. Cybernetics, constructivism and behaviorism theories buttressed the integrating of technology and reflective thinking in science education. Empirical findings equally justify teaching science technologically and with reflective thinking. There are challenges to technological integration in science education, the FUD factors (Fear, Uncertainties and Doubts) about the use of technology in science education, Inadequate ICTs policies and programmes, insufficient technological infrastructures, low ICTs skills and knowledge, poor attitudes to change (status quo sustenance), poor finance, poor management cum maintenance culture, and many other impinging challenges to effective technological integration in basic science education.
