Abstract:

This study explored outcomes of inquiry-based teaching and learning as perceived by students, and which they felt were the most important or salient. Participants were 6 teachers and their 181 students in classes categorized as least, middle, and most with respect to degrees of using inquiry. Information from teacher interviews was used to place classes in these groups. A student questionnaire, constructed using a criterion-referenced list of potential inquiry outcomes from a literature search, assessed the extent to which they experienced these outcomes in their classes.

Abstract:

This research study explored the role of the elementary art educator in facilitating individualized learning experiences for students in contrast to a standardized culture of education. The methodology of a/r/tography was used to investigate the role of the teacher, as well as artist and researcher, within an inquiry-based art curriculum for a fifth grade class. Inspired by contemporary art practices, students used inquiry to investigate, research and experiment with their ideas around an integrated topic of compare and contrast as found within the fifth grade science and language arts standar

Abstract:

<p>This thesis introduces the idea of an interactive web-based visualization tool to support inquiry-based science learning. The problem that occurs when the teachers and students are discussing the collected data is that they are lacking a tool to display such large quantities of data. It is often hard to fully understand such data. This education tool makes use of different visualization approaches in order to support students while getting insights from their collected data. In this thesis I proposed and implemented an interactive web-based visualization tool that was used at a prototype le

Abstract:

In recent years there has been an increased interest in inquiry-based learning, also known as experiential learning or problem-based learning, as a more appropriate model of teaching science. The purpose of this study was to incorporate inquiry-based learning in a college sophomore-level General Microbiology Laboratory. The goal of this laboratory course is to introduce students to basic techniques and procedures necessary for the study of microorganisms. Laboratory sections were randomly assigned to an experimental group or a control/reference group. The experimental group was taught the conc

The current science education reform movement highlights inquiry-based instruction as a key approach in school science teaching. However, researchers have shown that internationally most teachers are not implementing reform or find it difficult to incorporate. In Kuwaiti classrooms inquiry-based instruction is rarely seen. Students are still taught primarily by rote-learning and memorization. Therefore, understanding factors influencing science teachers’ implementation of reform is a challenging issue in education research.

碩士<br>國立臺灣師範大學<br>地球科學系<br>98<br>This study aims to understand student’s inquiry performances with the aid of the TWIN system. At first, we analyzed student’s inquiry performances from 2006 to 2008. The findings and implications were generalized to modify four worksheets in 2009. With their performances on the modified worksheets, we investigated how students’ scientific inquiry performances were influenced by their confidence and learning attitudes toward inquiry as well as teachers’ attitudes toward scientific inquiry instruction. Furthermore, we also analyzed a case teacher’s instructional
