The Expectancy-Value model provided a theoretical framework for the exploration of 336 middle school student participants. Initially, participants were generally positive literacy instruction into biology through collaborative, metacognitive inquiry • Attempted to build and measure science teachers’ implementation integrating literacy and content • Targeted schools serving African American, Latino, English Learner, and Low SES students • … "The Effects of an Innovative Activity-Centered Biology Program on Attitude Toward Science Teaching Among Preservice.

Based on initial student reasoning ability (i.e., low, medium, or high), students were assigned to either homogeneous or heterogeneous collaborative groups within either inquiry or didactic instruction.

Ninety-six students from three 7th-grade classes at a public school were randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group. on reasoning gains and achievement in college biology.

A rigorous Biology course covers the primary aspects of the discipline, including cells and their inquiry can provide a powerful learning experience where students not only learn about science content but also gain reasoning and research skills. Students come to understand Teaching science with hand-on inquiry may have more effects that student achievement. A number of papers have linked hands-on or inquiry teaching to changes in effects of culture on behavior • an appreciation of aesthetics and the power of creative expression • an awareness of the ways in which disciplines interact and overlap • a core of essential skills for productive, meaningful engagement with the world: * ffective written and oral communication e * ogical thinking l * uantitative reasoning q If reasoning skills are more predictive of future success in the sciences, and, as one might imagine, have a broader application to students' future lives regardless of career path, inquiry-based Responsibility ! Organization ! Independent Work ! Collaboration ! Initiative ! Self-Regulation Learning skills and work habits influence student achievement and are included as a formal part of the assessment and evaluation process. Learning skills and work habits will be assessed through a variety of teacher strategies.

More invention is also When planning formal group work, instructors should form the groups, considering student characteristics that can contribute to more effective group processes and group performance. Smaller teams tend to work better. Most studies that look at group size find that groups of 3-5 produce greater cooperativity and less social loafing, leading to better group performance and … Continued
