Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate how science teachers in compulsory school, preferably chemistry, but also biology and physics, in their practice conduct teaching about source credibility to meet the curriculum's goals and knowledge requirements in this area. The study has been based on recorded qualitative semi-structured interviews of eight teachers active in primary school. The results have been produced through thematic analysis and describe how the teachers teach source criticism in the science subjects, as well as the capabilities that the teachers believe the students need to be able to benefit the teaching ofsource credibility. Source credibility is mainly treated as an aspect of ordinary teaching, for example in connection with various statements or questions that students address based on information they have taken part in in the public debate or in various discussion forums is mainly treated as an aspect of the usual teaching. The teachers then discuss with the pupils which factors make information credible. The teachers also describe that it is important in the teaching to emphasize that the credibility of scientific statements depends on the statement being supported by the scientific methods used in the development and that the statement has been reviewed by subject matter experts. The teachers in this study describe that the most important capability for students to critically review information with a scientific content is their knowledge of the various NO subjects. Another important capability is that students understand how to use search engines on the Internet to be able to find independent sources. The risk is otherwise that they end up in a so called search bubble and they do not receive relevant information.
Mahama, Wundow. "High school learners’ attitudes towards physical sciences." Thesis, University of Zululand, 2018. http://uzspace.unizulu.ac.za:8080/xmlui/handle/10530/1639.
Full textThe investigation of high school learners’ attitudes towards physical science has been one of the prominent areas of research for the science education research community globally for some time now. However, its current importance in South Africa is emphasised by the mounting evidence of poor performance in physical science at matriculation level. Consequently, identifying the nature of learners’ attitudes towards physical science, and promoting favourable attitudes towards physical science is increasingly a matter of concern. The present study therefore investigated high school learners’ attitudes towards physical science and the relationship between their attitudes and learners’ biographical data such as gender, age and grade level. Both systematic and stratified sampling techniques were used to select a sample size of 298 respondents from five high schools in the Nongoma circuit in KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. The research was based on descriptive research design to obtain information from respondents in their natural environment through the use of adopted attitude scale. Permission was sought and obtained through email to use the attitude scale. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to present and analyse the data. The findings from the present study suggest that majority of high school learners hold positive attitudes towards physical science. Findings with regard to the relationship between learners’ attitudes and their biographical data reveal that there is no association between attitudes and learners’ biographical data such as gender, age and grade level. The findings from this study will add value to education policy pertaining to science education in the country. It will also contribute to the theory of attitudes towards physical science. However, there is a need in future to study ways of encouraging learners to have positive attitudes towards physical science.

Full textThe purpose of this project is to create fun and educational lesson plans for before and after school childcare providers of children in kindergarten through fifth grade. The lesson plan will incorporate aspects of physical activity and nutrition into the basic curriculum for this age group. The nutrition and physical activity curriculum contains four themed weekly lessons. Each lesson incorporates a nutrition discussion, an activity related to the discussion, and one group game. The lessons and activities were designed to incorporate minimal materials so that any facility could easily incorporate them. A committee of nutrition professionals and educators reviewed the curriculum and improvements were made based on their recommendations.

A citation analysis was carried out to gain an understanding of the geographical and institutional distribution of highly cited articles in the chemical sciences in the US over the last thirty years. The contribution of US chemistry departments was determined by quantifying the number of highly cited articles published by individual authors or groups of authors from the same department. Articles stemming from collaborative research across schools were not considered. The results show that a dilution in intradepartmental knowledge production has occurred both on a geographical and institutional level. Three chemistry departments have emerged as strong producers of high impact articles over the last thirty years: the University of North Carolina, Texas A&M University and the University of Utah. In terms of aggregate numbers of highly cited articles these three schools are in the top ten of over seventy schools which were evaluated; their chemistry departments are en par in terms of scientific impact with those from Ivy League schools like Stanford University, Harvard University and the California Institute of Technology. While the literature reports increasing concentration for the US research base, the present analysis shows a dilution in chemical knowledge production when collaborative efforts across departments and schools are excluded. This finding suggests that the increase in concentration in the US science base is not a uniform trend when studied on a more granular level.

Physical activity promotion in schools is a critical component of adolescent health. The main purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of a school-based program to increase the physical activity of 6th grade students. A total of 113 students in a large suburban public middle school participated in the 11 week study. A quasi-experimental design was used. Physical education (PE) classes served as the unit of randomization. Six PE classes were assigned to the control condition and six PE classes to the experimental condition. Control group students were asked to wear unsealed pedometers throughout the day in school and at home and to record their daily step-counts in school. Experimental group students also wore unsealed pedometers throughout the day and logged their daily step-counts in school, but additionally received a 10,000 step per day goal, were asked to attain an increased step-count goal during PE class, and received an enhanced PE curriculum. Pre- and post-test data were gathered for all dependent measures including average daily step-counts by week, GPA, attendance, tardiness, attitude and self-efficacy toward physical activity, and Presidential Physical Fitness Tests. The data analysis was completed using analyses of variance (ANOVAs), analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), paired sample t-tests, and independent sample t-tests. Results revealed significant gains in physical activity for both treatment conditions. Both groups demonstrated significantly increased step-counts relative to their baseline step-counts. The intervention did not produce significant changes in attitude or self-efficacy. There were some significant improvements in physical fitness and the scholastic measures, but these changes were not attributed to the intervention. Very low attrition, a high compliance rate, and favorable participant feedback were also noted. Overall, this study revealed that, in the short-term, it is possible to significantly improve physical activity without changing an adolescent's self-efficacy or attitude. An important finding of this study was that multi-faceted self-monitoring was the most critical factor that contributed to increased physical activity.

Full textSchool sports and physical activities have been shown to provide different health-related benefits. Benefits that involves the ability to feel better and complete the schooling process. However, its not all groups of students who have the prerequisites for using physical education. This work has therefore been based on the purpose of investigating adults with physical disabilities and their experience of intramural sports in Swedish elementary school through an interview study. To answer my purpose, two questions were used. What factors prevent students with physical disabilities to participate in physical education and whether there are factors that allows for the possibilities to participate in physical education. The result has been shown that physical inaccessibility not only affects the ability of individuals to participate in sporting activities but also the possibility of joining a social community with other classmates, which also affects the mental health. There have also been forms of insufficient knowledge about the disability area from school representatives. As far as possible factors are concerned, it has been found that various support interventions may be important for some individuals with physical disabilities to gain access to physical education. For example, assistance. It has also been found that individuals with physical disabilities usually have their own solutions in order to participate in physical education in elementary school.

Full textThe purpose of this paper is to illuminate how students in an upper secondary school concept learning within the course Physical Education and Health A. The theoretical view that we use is to examine the learning from the viewpoints of physical activity and physical literacy. We have used a qualitative method, as we have interviewed 17 students from an upper secondary school in southern Sweden. The result shows that the students in our survey do not get the opportunity to reflect, discuss and formulate themselves around their own learning processes. For instance, the students express that the subject is “fun”, however, further reflection based on personal experience is lacking. Even though only a few students explicitly state that they do not acquire any knowledge from the course Physical Education and Health A (PEH), almost all students have major problems reflecting upon their own learning verbally. This indicates that the students have not had the opportunity to pause and reflect during their own learning process. We find that it seems students deem it more important to be physically active than it is to highlight the learning process through discussion. On this basis, we believe that students do not get the chance to develop physical literacy because this is breached as physical activity is valued higher. Our study also shows that students lack the complete picture needed to ensure that individuals have the opportunity to develop physical literacy. Physical activity is at the center of attention and the students are unable to link together the essential parts of different elements into a coherent whole. The course is divided into theory and practice, which becomes problematic when students seem to have difficulty linking the theoretical concepts to the practical parts. Regarding the practical parts, the focus is on activity, attitude and commitment. This means that the reflection required for physical literacy fails because the physical activity becomes the focus of teaching. Students concentrate on being active with commitment and the right attitude instead of reflectively learning. In conclusion, it seems that being physically active is highly valued by the students at the cost of the individual’s own personal reflection that is necessary to develop physical literacy.

Full textThe aim of this study is to investigate whether the relative age effect (RAE) is a depending factor regarding grades in physical education among boys and girls. To answer the purpose of this study we investigate whether there is a correlation between time of year students are born and what grade they have, if any difference has taken place over time and if there are differences in grades between the genders. The material consists 988 final grades from ninth grade in physical education among all public schools in Helsingborg. Method of this study is quantitative, and by correlations analysis examines whether there is a correlation between the variables of birth and grades. The results show that there is no statistical correlation between time of years students are born and what grade they have. However, it turns out that the girls born early in a year, generally has better grades than those who were born late, while the results for boys are the opposite. The results are different to the previous study which substantiates the relative age effect. The boys in the study have better grades than girls. One explanation for the result may be that Lpo 94 is not as performance-based as Lgr 80, and new sporting habits.

Full textThe objective of the study was to investigate the construction of Physical education(PE) in high school students. Participants were 3 female and 5 male high school students, 16-18 years of age. The participants came from 3 different schools in Malmö and differed in amount of conducted physical activity outside of school. Qualitative interviews were conducted and content analyzed. The result showed that the construct of PE was composed by 4 dimensions; Athletic-, Body and Gender-, Scholastic- and Social dimensions. The result can be helpful to understand, interpret and analyze students’ behavior during PE and, in addition, to develop the content and execution of PE in the future.
