This book presents innovative technology-enhanced learning solutions for STEM education proposed by the EU Horizon 2020-funded NEWTON project by first highlighting the benefits and limitations of existing research work, e- learning systems and case studies that embedded technology in the teaching and learning process. NEWTON’s proposed innovative technologies and pedagogies include adaptive multimedia and multiple sensorial media, virtual reality, fabrication and virtual labs, gamification, personalisation, game-based learning and self-directed learning pedagogies. The main objectives are to encourage STEM education among younger generations and to attract students to STEM subjects, making these subjects more appealing and interesting. Real life deployment of NEWTON technologies and developed educational materials in over 20 European educational institutions at primary, secondary and tertiary levels demonstrated statistical significant increases in terms of learner satisfaction, learner motivation and knowledge acquisition.
This book constitutes selected, revised and extended papers from the 12th International Conference on Computer Supported Education, CSEDU 2020, held as a virtual event in May 2020. The 25 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 190 submissions. The presented papers contribute to the understanding of relevant trends of current research on Computer Supported Education, including learning analytics, intelligent tutoring systems, virtual and augmented reality, MOOCs, and automated assessment systems.
This report aims to 'crack the code' by deciphering the factors that hinder and facilitate girls' and women's participation, achievement and continuation in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education and, in particular, what the education sector can do to promote girls' and women's interest in and engagement with STEM education and ultimately STEM careers.
The second decade of the 21st century has seen governments and industry globally intensify their focus on the role of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) as a vehicle for future economic prosperity. Economic opportunities for new industries that are emerging from technological advances, such as those emerging from the field of artificial intelligence also require greater capabilities in science, mathematics, engineering and technologies. In response to such opportunities and challenges, government policies that position STEM as a critical driver of economic prosperity have burgeoned in recent years. Common to all these policies are consistent messages that STEM related industries are the key to future international competitiveness, productivity and economic prosperity. This book presents a contemporary focus on significant issues in STEM teaching, learning and research that are valuable in preparing students for a digital 21st century. The book chapters cover a wide spectrum of issues and topics using a wealth of research methodologies and methods ranging from STEM definitions to virtual reality in the classroom; multiplicative thinking; STEM in pre-school, primary, secondary and tertiary education, opportunities and obstacles in STEM; inquiry-based learning in statistics; values in STEM education and building academic leadership in STEM. The book is an important representation of some of the work currently being done by research-active academics. It will appeal to academics, researchers, teacher educators, educational administrators, teachers and anyone interested in contemporary STEM Education related research in a rapidly changing globally interconnected world. Contributors are: Natalie Banks, Anastasios (Tasos) Barkatsas, Amanda Berry, Lisa Borgerding, Nicky Carr, Io Keong Cheong, Grant Cooper, Jan van Driel, Jennifer Earle, Susan Fraser, Noleine Fitzallen, Tricia Forrester, Helen Georgiou, Andrew Gilbert, Ineke Henze, Linda Hobbs, Sarah Howard, Sylvia Sao Leng Ieong, Chunlian Jiang, Kathy Jordan, Belinda Kennedy, Zsolt Lavicza, Tricia Mclaughlin, Wendy Nielsen, Shalveena Prasad, Theodosia Prodromou, Wee Tiong Seah, Dianne Siemon, Li Ping Thong, Tessa E.

This timely book presents the latest scholarly research on the integration of Information Communications Technology (ICT) for enhanced STEM education in African schools and universities. Featuring critical discussion and illustration of key data-led arguments, this volume gives a comprehensive picture of the breadth, complexity, and diversity of issues present in different African countries. It highlights a diverse range of topics such as approaches to ICT integration, the use of digital technologies to support inquiry-based learning, teacher development, and contextual issues in ICT integration for STEM education. Chapters feature contributions and shared experiences from prominent science educators and researchers from across African regions, and demonstrate findings and reflections on emerging trends, pedagogical innovations, and research-informed practices on ICT integration in STEM education. Offering cutting-edge research on STEM and digital education in Africa, the book will appeal to researchers, postgraduate students, and scholars in the fields of STEM education, ICT education, digital education, and pedagogy.
Modern science communication has emerged in the twentieth century as a field of study, a body of practice and a profession—and it is a practice with deep historical roots. We have seen the birth of interactive science centres, the first university actions in teaching and conducting research, and a sharp growth in employment of science communicators. This collection charts the emergence of modern science communication across the world. This is the first volume to map investment around the globe in science centres, university courses and research, publications and conferences as well as tell the national stories of science communication. How did it all begin? How has development varied from one country to another? What motivated governments, institutions and people to see science communication as an answer to questions of the social place of science? Communicating Science describes the pathways followed by 39 different countries. All continents and many cultures are represented. For some countries, this is the first time that their science communication story has been told.
The continued growth in general studies and liberal arts and science programs online has led to a rise in the number of students whose science learning experiences are web-based. However, little is known about what is actually going on in web-based science courses at the level of the disciplines within liberal arts and sciences or the corresponding course design features. Online Science Learning: Best Practices and Technologies reviews trends and efforts in web-based science instruction and evaluates contemporary philosophies and pedagogies of online science instruction. This title on an emergent and vital area of education clearly demonstrates how to enrich the academic character and quality of web-based science instruction.
This is an open access book. 2022 International Conference on Science Education and Art Appreciation (SEAA 2022) was held on June 24–26, 2022 in Chengdu, China. It aims to encourage exchange of information on research frontiers in different fields, connect the most advanced academic resources in China and abroad, turn research results into industrial solutions, bring together talents, technologies and capital to boost development. The purpose of the conference is to provide an international platform for experts, scholars, engineers and technicians, and technical R&D personnel engaged in related fields such as "Science Education" and "Art Appreciation" , to share scientific research results, broaden research ideas, collide with new ideas, and strengthen academic research, and to explore the key challenges and research directions faced by the development of this field, and promote the industrialization cooperation of academic achievements. Experts, scholars, business people and other relevant personnel from universities and research institutions at home and abroad are cordially invited to attend and exchange.
