There is growing research interest in both the challenges and opportunities learners face in trying to represent scientific
understanding, processes and reasoning. These challenges are increasingly well understood by researchers, including integrating
verbal, visual and mathematical modes in science discourse, and making strong conceptual links between classroom experiences
and diverse 3D and 2D representations. However, a matching enhanced pedagogy of representation-rich learning opportunities,
including their theoretical justification, is much less clearly established. Our paper reports on part of a three-year project
to identify practical and theoretical issues entailed in developing a pedagogical framework to guide teacher understanding
and practices to maximize representational opportunities for learners to develop conceptual understandings in science. 相似文献

Personalised learning is now broadly endorsed as a key strategy to improve student curricular engagement and academic attainment, but there is also strong critique of this construct. We review claims made for this approach, as well as concerns about its conceptual coherence and effects on different learner cohorts. Drawing on literature around differentiation of the curriculum, self‐regulated learning, and ‘relational agency’ we propose a framework for conceptualising and enacting this construct. We then report on an attempt to introduce personalised learning as one strategy, among several, to improve student academic performance and wellbeing in four low SES regional secondary schools in Australia. We report on a survey of 2407 students’ perceptions of the extent to which their school provided a personalised learning environment, and a case study of a programme within one school that aimed to apply a personalised approach to the mathematics curriculum. We found that while there were ongoing challenges in this approach, there was also evidence of success in the mathematics case. 相似文献

Recent accounts by cognitive scientists of factors affecting cognition imply the need to reconsider current dominant conceptual theories about science learning. These new accounts emphasize the role of context, embodied practices, and narrative‐based representation rather than learners’ cognitive constructs. In this paper we analyse data from a longitudinal study of primary school children’s learning to outline a framework based on these contemporary accounts and to delineate key points of difference from conceptual change perspectives. The findings suggest this framework provides strong theoretical and practical insights into how children learn and the key role of representational negotiation in this learning. We argue that the nature and process of conceptual change can be re‐interpreted in terms of the development of students’ representational resources. 相似文献

As part of a long‐term research study to enhance science learning, this paper reports on an exploratory study aimed at identifying initial beliefs and practices of a group of teachers and students (Years 4–6) in Australia when the students engaged with multiple representations of the same science concepts. There is growing recognition in science education research that students need to understand and link different representational modes, such as graphic and verbal modes, in learning to think and act scientifically. This exploratory study used a multi‐site case‐study approach employing qualitative and quantitative methods. The findings indicated that while teachers used various modes to engage students and assess learning, they were not systematic in their focus on student integration and translation across modes. The study found that various factors affected students’ understanding of different modes, and that students who recognised relationships between modes demonstrated better conceptual understandings than students who lacked this knowledge. 相似文献

This study is a secondary analysis of six previous studies that formed part of an ongoing research program focused on examining
the benefits of using writing-to-learn strategies within science classrooms. The study is an attempt to make broader generalizations
than those based on individual studies, given limitations related to sample sizes, topics, and classroom contexts. The results
indicated that using writing-to-learn strategies was advantageous for students compared to those students working with more
traditional science writing approaches. Using diversified types of writing enabled students in treatment groups to score significantly
better on conceptual questions and total test scores than those in comparison groups. Importantly, when the cognitive demand
of the question is increased from an extended recall to a design type question, there are significant performance differences
between comparison and treatment groups in favour of treatment. The authors argue that the use of writing-to-learn strategies
requires students to re-represent their knowledge in different forms and, as such, greater learning opportunities exist. Traditional
writing strategies tend to favour replication of knowledge rather than re-representation knowledge. 相似文献
