The book provides readers with a background on metacognition and analyses the latest developments in the field. It also gives an account of best-practice methodology. Expanding on the theoretical underpinnings of metacognition, the chapters present cutting-edge studies on how various forms of metacognitive instruction enhance understanding and thinking in science classrooms. The editors strive for conceptual coherency in the various definitions of metacognition that appear in the book, and show that the study of metacognition is not an end in itself. Rather, it is integral to other important constructs, such as self-regulation, literacy, the teaching of thinking strategies, motivation, meta-strategies, conceptual understanding, reflection, and critical thinking.

This book contains a selection of papers from prominent professionals in science, health and environmental education, who reflect on science education, each from their specific point of view. The core idea is to present well-founded perspectives on how science education may benefit from challenges stemming from both health and environmental education.

This book explores how two primary school teachers, identified as effective practitioners, approached science teaching and learning over a unit of work. In recording the teaching and learning experiences in their classrooms, the author highlights how the two teachers adopted different approaches, drawing on their particular beliefs and knowledge, to support student learning in science in ways that were appropriate to their contexts as well as reflected their different experiences, strengths and backgrounds. Through sharing their stories, this book illustrates, that due to the complex nature of teaching and learning, there is no one way of defining effectiveness. In documenting this research, it is hoped that other teachers and teacher educators will be inspired to think about primary school science education in innovative ways.

This book consolidates contemporary thinking and research efforts in teaching and learning about the nature of science in science education. The term ‘Nature of Science’ (NoS) has appeared in the science education literature for many decades. While there is still a controversy among science educators about what constitutes NoS, educators are unanimous in acknowledging the importance of this topic as well as the need to make it explicit in teaching science. The general consensus is that the nature of science is an intricate and multifaceted theme that requires continued scholarship. Recent analysis of research trends in science education indicates that investigation of the nature of science continues to be one of the most prevalent topics in academic publications. Advances in nature of science research explores teaching and assessing the nature of science as a means of addressing and solving problems in conceptual change, developing positive attitudes toward science, promoting thinking habits, advancing inquiry skills and preparing citizens literate in science and technology. The book brings together prominent scholars in the field to share their cutting-edge knowledge about the place of the nature of science in science teaching and learning contexts. The chapters explore theoretical frameworks, new directions and changing practices from intervention studies, discourse analyses, classroom-based investigations, anthropological observations, and design-based research.

[;This book examines the crucial issues affecting human rights education in contexts of culture, religious and societal diversity. This book considers a variety of connected content and methodological issues in three major sections : philosophical and policy perspectives, gender discourses, and discourses on narratives as safe spaces. The focus of the various chapters succeeds in establishing both a foundation and platform for dialogue surrounding human rights and human rights education in modern policy and governance. Aptly named “Safe spaces”, the edition offers in-depth and credible (“safe”) nuances (“spaces”), in terms of the somewhat reified concept of human rights, at a time when human rights remains a highly topical and contested international issue. ;This book examines the crucial issues affecting human rights education in contexts of culture, religious and societal diversity.

This collection offers a range of contributions to the topic that embody the reflections of science teacher educators who have applied self-study methodology to their own professional development. The material recognizes the paradox that lies between classroom science and the education of science teachers, the disciplines of science are often perceived as a quest for right answers, an unintentional by-product of the classroom focus on right answers in student assessment in science. In contrast, the profession of teaching has few right answers and frequently involves the management of conflicting tensions. A dilemma thus arises in science teacher education of how to shift perspectives among student teachers from reductionist to more inclusive attitudes that are open to the mercurial realities of teaching.

Dalam pelaksanaan program pemberantasan casing di sekolah-sekolah dasar DKI Jakarta selama ini, tidak ada intervensi khusus yang ditujukan kepada dokter kecil. Padahal sebaiknya mereka perlu dilibatkan secara aktif dalam program ini, karena dokter kecil diharapkan dapat membina teman-temannya dan berperan sebagai promotor dan motivator dalam melaksanakan program pemberantasan cacing di sekolah tersebut. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh program pemberantasan cacing dengan pelatihan dokter kecil terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan, sikap dan praktek murid sekolah dasar. Jenis penelitian adalah eksperimen semu dengan menggunakan rancangan ulang non random. Sampel diambil secara purposive yaitu seluruh murid kelas IV,V,VI tanpa dokter kecil dari SDN Pasar Minggu 01 Pagi sebagai kelompok eksperimen, dan dari SDN Pasar Minggu 07 Pagi sebagai kelompok kontrol. Kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol sama-sama mendapat program pemberantasan cacing, dan pada kelompok eksperimen ditambah kegiatan pelatihan dokter kecil. Hasil penelitian menuniukkan bahwa, ternyata pemilihan kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol tidak setara untuk variabel umur murid dan variabel praktek murid hasil pre-test. Perbedaan pengetahuan, sikap dan praktek antara pre-test dan post-test pada masing-masing kelompok didapatkan hasil yang bermakna. Sedangkan perbedaan peningkatan tersebut antar kelompok didapatkan hasil yang tidak bermakna. Berarti program pemberantasan cacing baik dengan atau tanpa pelatihan dokter kecil, sama-sama meningkatkan pengetahuan, sikap dan praktek murid. Temuan tambahan penelitian ini adalah diketahuinya dampak program pemberantasan cacing berupa penurunan kasus kecacingan setelah jangka waktu tertentu. Untuk penelitian selanjutnya, sebaiknya dilakukan studi pendahuluan, sehingga pemilihan responden dapat setara. Juga sebaiknya dilaksanakan mencakup beberapa sekolah dasar pada daerah yang lebih luas dan pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara random, sehingga hasilnya dapat di generalisasi.
