Literature suggests that existing learning management systems should be extended to integrate learning activities that aim at enhancing comprehension of students in Computer Science education. Therefore, literature has proposed Computing Augmented Learning Management System (CALMS) that meets the needs of online Computer Science education. However, it’s unclear the current state of architecture...

The study attempts to assess the impact of the educational level of the country’s population, the level of science and technology development on the general environmental environment. The aim of this article is to assess the impact of educational level and level of science development on individual elements that reflect the state of the environment. To receive the obtained results is being used...

The ability to make evidence-based decisions, and hence reason on questions concerning scientific societal aspects, is a crucial goal in science education communication. However, denial poses constant challenge for society education. Controversial issues (CSI) encompass knowledge rejected by the public as well socioscientific issues, i.e., grounded that are frequently applied Generating justifi...

Efforts to improve science education include university science departments hiring Science Faculty with Education Specialties (SFES), scientists who take on specialized roles in science education within their discipline. Although these positions have existed for decades and may be growing more common, few reports have investigated the SFES approach to improving science education. We present com...

The CBE—Life Sciences Education (CBE-LSE) Approaches to Biology Teaching and Learning feature most often focuses on translating research and scholarship in science education into practical, accessible teaching strategies that can support CBE-LSE readers in their own efforts as science instructors, primarily at the college and university level. In this column, we highlight an issue in science ed...

The reward systems at research universities heavily weight efforts of many professors toward research at the expense of teaching, particularly in disciplines supported extensively by extramural funding ( 1). Although education and lifelong learning skills ar...

In the celebration of the Oswaldo Cruz Institute centenary, we wanted to stress our concern with the relationship between two of its missions: research and education. What are the educational bases required for science and technology activities on health sciences for the future years? How can scientists collaborate to promote the popularization of academic knowledge and to improve a basic educa...

The thesis is made up by four studies, on the comprehensive theme of integrated and subjectspecific science education in Swedish compulsory school. A literature study on the matter is followed by an expert survey, then a case study and ending with two analyses of students’ science results from PISA 2003 and PISA 2006. The first two studies explore similarities and differences between integrated...
