This systematic review aimed to address the following three research questions: What are the characteristics and trends of the current studies on integrating entrepreneurial education into STEM education? (RQ1); Based on the extent of integration, what are the types of integration of entrepreneurial education into STEM education? (RQ2); Following an in-depth analysis and overview of each type, what are the corresponding patterns for each type of integration of entrepreneurial education into STEM education? (RQ3). Utilizing the PRISMA procedure’s criteria, we pinpointed 31 eligible articles. Reacting to RQ1, a descriptive analysis has been conducted to provide a comprehensive description of the publication year, the first author’s nation, research methods, participants, and impact. Reacting to RQ2, we conducted an in-depth content analysis and categorized entrepreneurial STEM education into three distinct types: the entrepreneurial element-embedded design, the whole-process integration, and the project-driven entrepreneurial design. Reacting to RQ3, the flowcharts provided for each type offer a practical template for understanding the patterns of integration.

The study aimed to enhance high-school students’ entrepreneurial skills, namely resourcefulness and problem-solving skills, and investigate their experiences and feelings of entrepreneurial STEM education. Three entrepreneurial STEM activities were implemented with 30 students in a private high school in Turkey. The qualitative data were collected through pre- and post-interviews and group reflective journals and analysed with content analysis. The quantitative data were collected through the Self-Control Schedule (SCS) and the Problem-Solving Scale (PS) and analysed through SPSS. The quantitative data indicated that the participants’ average SCS results increased from 117.63 to 122.40 (no significant difference) and their average PS results increased from 130.00 to 135.55 (no significant difference) following an intervention. This may be because of participants’ prior experiences or the number of participants attending the study. However, there were significant changes in the subscales of SCS and PS, showing that participants’ approach-avoidance style (PS subscale) as well as planning of behaviour and control of emotions (SCS subscales) can be enhanced by implementing entrepreneurial STEM activities. The qualitative data showed that participants started to face their problems more and try to find them different solutions rather than avoiding them. The qualitative data also pointed to the changes in participants’ capability of making connections between the subject disciplines and everyday life. Moreover, students found entrepreneurial STEM activities entertaining and helpful for improving understanding of chemistry topics. The study contributes to the field by bringing authenticity to STEM education by incorporating social and green entrepreneurship, supporting students’ entrepreneurial skill development, and helping teachers and students make connections between STEM, real-world, and public.</p>","PeriodicalId":47988,"journal":{"name":"Research in Science Education","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141974306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These gaps, termed explanatory black boxes, are often perceived as counterproductive to the teaching of mechanisms, yet are integral to it, and their cognizant use is a nuanced skill. Amidst the discourse on mechanistic reasoning in science education, this paper focuses on biology teachers’ perception of explanatory black boxes and the explicit discussion of them in their classroom. Using interviews with 11 experienced high-school biology teachers, we unraveled perceived affordances and constraints in teachers’ use of black boxes in the context of challenges in teaching mechanisms. Utilizing the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) framework, we expose a nuanced interplay of considerations related to strategies, students, curriculum alignment, assessment, and orientation toward science teaching. A constant tension existed—with considerations supporting and opposing the use of both unpacking and black boxing as teaching strategies—both within and between PCK components. In contrast, contemplating the explication of black boxes led teachers to illustrate this strategy as an intermediate one, attenuating constraints of both unpacking and black-boxing strategies while also promoting teachers’ ability to align curricular items and endorse student agency. Implications for teacher training are discussed, emphasizing the need to make teachers aware of the involvement of black boxes in mechanistic reasoning, and familiarize them with black-box explication as an intermediate strategy that can enrich their pedagogy.</p>","PeriodicalId":47988,"journal":{"name":"Research in Science Education","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141974304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate the potential of metaphors about nutrient uptake occurring in classrooms in which an animation was used. To identify metaphors in the classroom interaction, we have applied an analysis according to systemic-functional grammar (SFG), rooted in social semiotic theory. The present study indicates that the use of metaphors can play an important role in scientific meaning-making, since, in that way, students and teachers can make meaning about scientific processes and functions before having access to the scientific terminology. However, if metaphors are to be functional tools for meaning-making in science education, the teacher has an important role to play in, among other things, explicitly connecting the metaphors and everyday language to scientific concepts. We argue that metaphors based on functional similarity have a high affordance for making meaning about complex processes, such as nutrient uptake.</p>","PeriodicalId":47988,"journal":{"name":"Research in Science Education","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141730572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Few studies have investigated the nature of models and modelling in integrated STEM teacher education.

Model and modelling for authentic STEM are used as a theoretical lens for conceptualising PSTs’ understanding of the nature of models and modelling. Interpretive research was used to analyse how this course contributed to PSTs’ understanding of the nature of models and modelling based on four dimensions: meanings, purposes, processes and the complexity of models and modelling. Data were collected through questionnaires. Inductive content analysis was used to reveal distinct patterns of PSTs’ understandings. The findings indicated that at the beginning of the course, PSTs understood that models were a replication of phenomena or a prototype. By the end of the course, they understood modelling as a practice to explain and predict phenomena in science to solve problems and improve the quality of life through engineering. By the end of the course, PSTs viewed modelling as a bridge between science and engineering within the context of an integrated STEM education. The PSTs showed marked shifts by the end of the course by demonstrating a deeper understanding of modelling as a dynamic process. PSTs saw the integration of science and engineering in STEM as a route for epistemic agency on behalf of their students and a greater appreciation of model complexity.
