How Educational Leaders Think About Intersections of Identities and Disciplinary Learning in Science
Resource
American science education leaders play critical roles in promoting equity in education, but little is known about how they understand everyday classroom interactions where inequities related to intersectionality are…
Interrogating Whiteness in Mathematics Education Research: A Discourse Analysis of Storylines About Latiné Communities
Resource
Society produces storylines about Latiné communities, including their placement in racial and linguistic hierarchies, that permeate the mathematics classroom and research in mathematics education. We conducted a discourse…
Learning by Evaluating in Engineering Design Classrooms: A 5E Instructional Model Perspective from Teachers
Resource
This study explores how Learning by Evaluating (LbE) can be integrated into the 5E instructional model to support technology and engineering education. LbE, influenced by comparative judgment, engages students in analyzing…
Middle School Students’ Meanings of Points from Quantitative and Covariational Reasoning Perspectives
Resource
We examine the meanings students give to points when they are graphing relationships between quantities in dynamic, experiential contexts. Using data from teaching experiments with middle-grades students, we illustrate two…
Resource
Engaging students in scientific modeling practice is critical for developing their competence in using scientific knowledge to explain phenomena and design solutions. Student-drawn models are frequently used to investigate…
Resource
Science instruction should involve learners in generating and warranting ideas, what we call epistemic generation. In modeling instruction, epistemic generation should be achieved by coordinating a model structure with the…
Resource
The purpose of this chapter is to bring a rigorous and well-studied theoretical framework of motivation to the study and design of virtual learning environments.

A Geometric Path to the Concept of Function: Transformations using dynamic software can provide a unique perspective on a common topic.
Resource
The concept of function spans elementary school through high school. When introducing the topic to elementary school and middle school students, we ask them to work with a variety of examples and representations of…
