Abstract

This study examines the often-heard assumption in science teaching that some pedagogies in science classrooms can serve a dual function—improve the student-perceived teacher quality and improve students' affinity to STEM professions. We asked 7507 freshmen from 40 colleges in the United States, selected in a stratified random procedure, to retrospectively report their experiences of a list of 32 pedagogies during high school biology, chemistry, and physics classes. Our survey also asked students to rate each teachers' quality and to report their Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics career interests at the beginning and end of high school. We found that teachers' chosen pedagogies, on the whole, had a stronger impact on how students rated them than on students' career interests. Interestingly, we also found considerable differences between the disciplines.

高中科学教学法对学生 STEM 职业兴趣及其对教师质量评价的影响
本研究探讨了在科学教学中经常听到的一种假设,即科学课堂中的某些教学法可以起到双重作用--提高学生对教师素质的认知度和提高学生对 STEM 专业的亲和力。我们通过分层随机程序从美国 40 所大学中挑选了 7507 名新生,让他们回顾性地报告他们在高中生物、化学和物理课上对 32 种教学法的体验。我们的调查还要求学生对每位教师的教学质量进行评分,并报告他们在高中开始和结束时对科学、技术、工程或数学职业的兴趣。我们发现,总体而言,教师选择的教学方法对学生评价的影响比对学生职业兴趣的影响更大。有趣的是,我们还发现不同学科之间存在很大差异。
