Testo completoPurpose. This study sought to identify, understand, and describe the decision-making processes used by school districts to determine the middle school science course sequence as part of the adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards. Additionally, this study explored and described the expressed comments, feelings, and beliefs of participants involved in the decision process about their experience in the decision-making process and the outcome.
Methodology. This multiple case study focused on four cases—three school districts that chose the integrated approach and one district that chose the discipline approach. Ten participants represented the four school districts. Data were collected from each participant utilizing personal face-to-face interviews.
Findings. Significant findings included: Administrators tended to defer to teachers, because of their expertise, to promote consensus and teacher buy-in; prolonged discussions led to expressions of demoralization among teachers; each of the four school districts used a different approach to the decision—one depended on expertise of a dedicated science education leader to make a command decision, while three districts included a broad set of participants to promote consensus; conceptual structuring devices facilitated decision making; science teachers with discipline-specific backgrounds tended to prefer the discipline model and were more reluctant to adopt the integrated approach; the professional identity of the science teacher influenced their preference and their feelings about the outcome; and each participant expressed unique perceptions of who was involved in the decision—teachers tended to downplay the importance of their own influence and to describe the ultimate decision as being in the hands of administrators.
Conclusions. There is no best approach to selecting a middle school science course sequence. Multiple decision-making approaches resulted in acceptable outcomes, but any approach can be improved by taking steps to promote levels of trust among constituents.
Recommendations. Educational leaders must understand how the professional identity and science content expertise of science teachers influence their preferences of curricular sequencing. Leaders interested in developing consensus should take careful steps to promote transparency and trust. Participants in the decision should be provided professional development to limit ambiguity, provide guidelines, and promote structuring devices to facilitate the decision.

Commoditization of the PC market has led to a shift in strategy at Dell away from customization towards defining specific consumer configurations ahead of time. This shift creates new planning and decision processes around which configurations to select. Given configurations are defined before true demand can be measured, variability leads to selection of configurations based on imperfect knowledge. The existing variety of configurations has imposed substantial complexity costs on Dell. Modeling this selection process as a Newsvendor "life-time buy" includes this variability while optimizing for profit. Estimated costs of overage, costs of underage, and complexity costs are used as inputs. This thesis seeks to develop a framework informing configuration selection decisions based on demand variability and expected profit. A heuristic model uses configuration volume estimates, profit margin estimates, and historical regional bias in submitted forecasts to score and rank potential configurations. This heuristic determines which configurations to select within a fixed maximum total number of configurations limit, based on the business's market share growth and profit goals. This maximum limit is set by Dell's Vice Chairman Jeff Clarke. The results of this heuristic show a decrease in decision process time, an increase in process transparency, and increase in expected profit. A what-if scenario analysis shows an annual increase of 3.4% in profit which amounts to several million dollars. These results were gathered through implementing the model in November 2014 and comparing the heuristic-based decisions against past process decisions.

Sourcing and outsourcing decisions have taken on increased importance within Teradyne to improve efficiency and competitiveness. This project delivered a conceptual framework and a software tool to analyze supply chain costs associated with a specified supply chain design. Determining total supply chain cost is a complex challenge. This work developed the concept of a hierarchical, inter-related, multi-level supply chain cost architecture. Within this architecture, supply chain costs can be expressed as a sum of only 5 supply chain cost factors (material, labor, logistics, inventory holding, and overhead costs). The reduction of a large number of potential cost factors eases communication about total supply chain costs within an organization. An interactive Excel VBA software was developed which allows the user to experimentally model changes to a specific supply chain design. The VBA program automatically recalculates the supply chain costs based on the changes made. The output of the program is a comparison of costs associated with different supply chain designs. In a case study, the total supply chain cost model was applied to evaluate different supply chain node locations in Southeast Asia for one of Teradyne's testers.

OEMinc's new business model is a dramatic departure from that used in the past. The company has moved steadily upstream in the supply chain, leaving more and more of the manufacturing effort to suppliers. Literature shows that extraordinary productivity gains in the production network, or value chain, are possible when companies are willing to collaborate in unique ways, often achieving competitive advantage by sharing knowledge, research and assets. For its newest product, Excelsior, OEMinc has moved to an extended enterprise model involving dozens of Partners. Approximately half are Component Partners (CPs), who supply systems and components. The remainder are Assembly Partner's (APs), who integrate these components into sub-assemblies. Many components are purchased by OEMinc and drop-shipped by CPs to APs, then installed in subassemblies. For the purposes of this analysis, Critical Safety Inventory is defined as inventory held at a site that buffers against disruptions in quality or upstream delivery and is not needed for production at that time.
(cont.) More specifically, the need for CSI is driven by the following: *variability in delivery time, resulting in late parts at the AP site or at OEMinc; *part non-conformances, which result in parts being unavailable for installation; and/or *part damage upon installation. The challenge OEMinc faces, which this project attempts to address, is: "How can OEMinc mitigate supply chain risk in the context of reduced information and control?" This project focuses on inventory management as a tool for mitigating risk. Therefore, the project definition has been further defined as follows: To develop an effective safety inventory policy for OEMinc-owned, drop-shipped components within the Excelsior Supply Chain, with the goal of supporting production, reducing inventory cost, and enabling continuous improvement. As outlined above, OEMinc's move to the extended enterprise business model is a significant step towards its vision of being a large-scale systems integrator. The success of this transition is important for OEMinc's long-term future, in addition to being an enabler for the Excelsior. The following approach was used: 1) Case Studies: Components were selected based on characteristics that bracketed the types of issues that might be seen in the supply chain at OEMinc.
(cont.) It was expected that examination of these supply chains would reveal particular issues representative of a wider selection of components. 2) Simulation analysis: A generic simulation model was created for components under the Excelsior Business model. The simulation was used to determine how many shipsets of inventory should be held at the AP site for a varying lead times, expedite lead times and risks of non-conformance. 3) Benchmarking: Representatives of peer companies were interviewed and site visits were conducted to gather information on how they manage their relationships with partner suppliers, with special attention paid to inventory management, partner management, incentives and data exchange. 4) Metrics Analysis: OEMinc's existing metrics system was assessed to determine what changes might be made given the business model shift for the Excelsior program. 5) Implementation: Based on the results of the preceding steps, a set of guidelines was developed for Partners to reach the desired state with respect to CSI management. Using a Systems Dynamics framework, the supply chain was analyzed to determine what incentives should be applied to encourage the desired supplier behavior.

Testo completoModeling is an important scientific practice through which scientists generate, evaluate, and revise scientific knowledge, and it can be translated into science classrooms as a means for engaging students in authentic scientific practice. Much of the research investigating modeling in classrooms focuses on student learning, leaving a gap in understanding how teachers enact this important practice. This dissertation draws on data collected through a model-based curricular project to uncover instructional moves teachers made to enact modeling, to describe factors influencing enactment, and to discuss a framework for designing and enacting modeling lessons.
I framed my analysis and interpretation of data within the varying perceptions of modeling found in the science studies and science education literature. Largely, modeling is described to varying degrees as a means to engage students in sense-making or as a means to deliver content to students. This frame revealed how the instructional moves teachers used to enact modeling may have influenced its portrayal as a reasoning practice. I found that teachers’ responses to their students’ ideas or questions may have important consequences for students’ engagement in modeling, and thus, sense-making.
To investigate factors influencing the portrayal of modeling, I analyzed teacher interviews and writings for what they perceived affected instruction. My findings illustrate alignments and misalignments between what teachers perceive modeling to be and what they do through instruction. In particular, teachers valued providing their students with time to collaborate and to share their ideas, but when time was perceived as a constraint, instruction shifted towards delivering content. Additionally, teachers’ perceptions of students’ capacity to engage in modeling is also related to if and how they provided opportunities for students to make sense of phenomena.
The dissertation closes with a discussion of a framework for designing and enacting lessons for engaging students in modeling. I draw on examples from this study to provide context for how the framework can support teachers in engaging students in modeling. Altogether, this dissertation describes how teachers facilitate modeling and why varying enactments may be observed, filling a gap in researchers’ understanding of how teachers enact modeling in science classrooms.

Testo completoThis research study examines those aspects of Indigenous Knowledge (IK) that could be socially and culturally relevant in the Western Cape Province, South Africa, for teaching meteorological science concepts in a grade 9 Social Science (Geography) classroom using dialogical argumentation as an instructional model (DAIM). The literature reviewed in this study explains the use of argumentation as an instructional method of classroom teaching in particular dialogical argumentation, combined with IKS (Indigenous Knowledge Systems), which in this study is seen as a powerful tool both in enhancing learners’ views and positively identifying indigenous knowledge systems within their own cultures and communities, and as tool that facilitates the learning of (meteorological) literacy and science concepts. With the development of the New Curriculum Statements (NCS) and the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS) for schools, the Department of Basic Education (DBE) of South Africa acknowledges a strong drive towards recognising and affirming the critical role of IK, especially with respect to science and technology education. The policy suggests that the Department of Education take steps to begin the phased integration of IK into curricula and relevant accreditation frameworks. Using a quasi-experimental research design model, the study employed both quantitative and qualitative methods (mixed-methods) to collect data in two public secondary schools in Cape Town, in the Western Cape Province, South Africa. A survey questionnaire on attitudes towards, and perceptions of high school, of a group of grade 9 learners, as well as their conceptions of weather, was administered before the main study to give the researcher baseline information and to develop pilot instruments to use in the main study. An experimental group (E-group) of learners were exposed to an intervention - the results were recorded against a control group (C-group) that were exposed to no intervention. Both the E-group and C-group were exposed to a Meteorological Literacy Test (MLT) evaluation before and after the DAIM intervention. The results from the two groups were then compared and analysed according to the two theoretical frameworks underpinning the study, namely, Toulmin’s Argumentation Pattern - TAP (Toulmin, 1958) and Contiguity Argumentation Theory - CAT (Ogunniyi, 1997). The findings of this study revealed that: Firstly, the socio-cultural background of learners has an influence on their conceptions of weather prediction and there was a significant difference between boy’s and girls’ pre-test conceptions about the existence of indigenous knowledge systems within the community they live in. For instance, from the learners’ excerpts, it emerged that the girls presented predominantly rural experiences as opposed to those of the boys which were predominantly from urban settings. Secondly, those E-group learners exposed to the DAIM intervention shifted from being predominantly equipollent to the school science to emergent stances and they found a way of connecting their IK to the school science. The DAIM model which allowed argumentation to occur amongst learners seemed to have enhanced their understanding of the relevance of IK and how its underlying scientific claims relate to that of school science. Thirdly, the argumentation-based instructional model was found to be effective to a certain extent in equipping the in-service teachers with the necessary argumentation skills that could enable them to take part in a meaningful discourse. The study drew on the personal experiences and encounters from a variety of sources. These included storytelling-and sharing, academic talks with local community members recorded during the research journey, formal round table discussion and talks at international and local conferences, conference presentations, informal interviews, indigenous chats at social event-meetings, and shared experiences at IKS training workshops as a facilitator. These encounters lead to the formulation of the research study and occurred throughout the country in various parts of the Southern African continent including: Namibia, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Botswana, Tanzania and Mozambique.

Testo completounderstanding of acid-base concepts. Fifty- six tenth grade students from two classes of a chemistry course taught by the same teacher in Atatü
rk Anatolian High School 2003-2004 spring semester were enrolled in the study. The classes were randomly assigned as control and experimental groups. Students in the control group were instructed by traditionally designed chemistry instruction whereas students in the experimental group were taught by the instruction based on 5E learning cycle model. Acid-Base Concepts Achievement Test was administered to both groups as a pre-test and post-test in order to assess their understanding of concepts related to acid-base. Students were also given Attitude Scale Toward Chemistry as a School Subject at the beginning and end of the study to determine their attitudes and Science Process Skill Test at the beginning of the study to measure their science process skills. The hypotheses were tested by using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and t-test. The results indicated that instruction based on 5E learning cycle model caused a significantly better acquisition of scientific conceptions related to acid-base produced significantly higher positive attitudes toward chemistry as a school subject than the traditionally designed chemistry instruction. In addition, science process skill was a strong predictor in understanding the concepts related to acid-base.

Testo completoSince the 1970s, energy has given rise to numerous research studies in didactics which have highlighted difficulties related to the teaching and learning of this concept. In France, in 2015, energy became a teaching theme in cycle 4 (grade 7 to 9). Exploratory interviews show heterogeneity in the appropriation of this theme by teachers and a great diversity in the use of energy chains, which are not based on common standards.In this research work, we characterize school science models of energy promoted by institutional actors likely to influence teaching practices, on the one hand through an analysis of institutional documents (programs, official documents and textbooks), on the other hand by an analysis of declared and actual practices of in-training service (interview with academic trainers and analysis of two training sessions). We particularly focus on the place of energy chains in these models, on their use in a classroom and training context, and on the reasons that can explain the choices of models and training made by trainers.To answer our research questions, we composed a theoretical and methodological framework inspired by the DADE (Robert and Rogalski, 2002) which is structured around three approaches: a didactic approach, to characterize the training and teaching tasks; an epistemological approach, to characterize the academic scientific models of energy; an ergonomic approach, to infer the reasons that justify the choices of models and tasks.The analysis of institutional documents did not highlight a single and clear school science model of energy: most often, the characteristics attributed to energy are not defined, and when they are their definitions may be contradictory to each other. Most of the models described do not make a distinction between the energy associated with the systems of study and the energy received or given by these systems, therefore the representation of phenomena by energy chains does not respond to clear rules of modelling. Generally, the links between the school science concept of energy and the societal concept of energy are seldom evoked (let alone explained in a satisfactory manner), and the models we identified do not permit to discuss societal issues from a scientific angle. Trainers who use a school science model of energy highlight the difficulties linked to teaching and learning about energy, and refer to the need for consensus regarding the words of the model and the modelling methodology. However, the models they promote are not based on common rules and do not rely on the same characteristics of energy. A training course is distinguished by the use of a school science model of energy derived from didactics, which is based on the distinction between forms of energy and energy transfers, as well as on the use of energy chains

The study based on five types of model representation (Boulter & Buckley, 2000) and two types of classification in film analysis (Wu, 1995), and there were seven movie model representation in total. This research took content analysis method to analyze 17 films , 64 sections each film and 317 parts each section from Science and Technology field provided by a most popular publisher at 2007 school year. The research found: 1.Many model representation may appear in the films at the same time. In general, the most popular model representation appeared in the whole film were verbal, concrete, setting and gestural representation. The frequency of model representation in non-experimental film were ordered as concrete, visual, setting, and gestural representation, while the orders were concrete, verbal, gestural and setting in experimental film. Mathematical representation didn’t occur on all types of films. 2.The frequency of model representation in the film for intermediate grade were ordered as verbal, concrete, gestural, setting and visual, while it was verbal, concrete, setting and visual in higher grades. The concrete, verbal, gestural and setting model representation appeared with the same frequency in experimental films across all grades. 3.Physics and Chemistry focused on experiment, so setting, verbal, concrete and action were the major model representation, while verbal, concrete, setting, and visual model representation were more popular in Biology and Earth Science 4.The case teachers affirmed the effect of film in teaching science, and they all had some understandings to model representation of elementary school science films. The case teachers who graduated from Science department and non-Science department had slightly different viewpoints regarding to the content depth of the films provided by the publisher.

While schools are striving for instating the use of information technology (IT), many researches reported only a few secondary teachers have used IT in their teaching practices. Previous researches have explored the factors influencing teachers’ adoption of IT; however, there has been relatively few works on the theoretical verifications. This study aims to establish a research model by which to examine the factors influencing science teachers’ intentions to infuse IT into teaching, and to investigate the discrepancies of individual differences toward intentions of infusion and the influencing factors. Combining the revised Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with the decomposed Theory of Planning Behavior, this study added new socio-cultural factors and external variables derived from the Social Cognitive Theory, the Theory of Innovation Diffusion, and the Task-technology Fit Theory as the research framework. An online questionnaire was administrated to 1,835 science teachers in 461 middle schools based on a stratified random sampling method. A total of 457 effective samples from 461 middle schools were obtained. Results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses showed that the reliability and validity of the instrument were at acceptable levels. The model fitness and path attributes were examined by a structural equation modeling approach. The model fitness indices showed the samples had a good fit with the research model. Nine factors were revealed, including the resource availability (RA), perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease-of-use (PE), entrance stress (ES), subjective norm (SN), image, (IM), perceived fit (PF), personal innovativeness (PI) and self-efficacy (SE). Results showed all hypotheses were supported, except for the relationship between PE and PU. The research model explained 61 percent of variance of intention to infusion (ITI). The stronger effects to ITI included the RA, PU, PE, PF, ES, SE and PI while the weaker effects to ITI included the SN and IM. There were thirteen paths to ITI, including three paths from endogenous variables and ten paths from exogenous variables. Of all paths to ITI, the strongest path was the PFPUITI. With the RA, the baseline model dramatically increased the total variance explained (R2=0.59); however, the full model only slightly increased the total variance explained. Results indicated that science teachers’ intentions to infusion were influenced by nine factors within the personal cognitions and characteristics, school contests, and socio-cultural dimensions. Their relationships are summarized as follows: (1)The RA, PU and PE positively influenced ITI while ES negatively influenced ITI; (2)The SN positively influenced ITI by ways of PU and IM; (3)The PE positively influenced ITI; (4)As the antecedents of PU, SN, IM and PF positively influenced ITI via PU; (5)As the antecedents of PE, SE and PI positively influenced ITI via PE; PI significantly determined SN. The discrepancies of individual differences between intention and infusion, as well as the influencing factors, were tested by the one-way ANOVA. Results were summarized as the follows: (1)The Science teachers with a Master’s degree held the strongest intentions of infusion, followed by those with Bachelor’s degrees and those with Ph.D.’s; (2)The Science teachers with Master’s degrees had stronger cognitions on PE, SN, RA, PF, SE and PI than those with Bachelor’s degrees and Ph. D’s; (3)Male Science teachers had stronger cognitions on PU, PE, IM, SE and PI than female science teachers; (4)Science teachers in the northern districts had stronger cognitions on PU and PI than science teachers in the eastern districts and off-shore islands. The present study confirms the applicability of the research model on explaining or predicting teachers’ adoption of IT in their teaching practices. It supports application of TAM in the educational setting and enhances understanding of teacher’s IT usage. The findings provide useful information for designing teacher growth programs in practices.

The purpose of this study is to propose a learning scaffold of science news questioning model for high school students when they read science news. It is hoped a clear framework and clues for news reading can be facilitated by self-questioning strategy to judge the purpose, experiment designing and logical relations between results and evidence in science articles. The subjects were 70 students (32 students in experiment group and 38 students in control group) within a senior high school located in central Taiwan. Both the learning sheet of science news questioning and comprehension test for science news were self-developed and validated. The duration of this study were two months. The results of ANCOVA indicated that students in experiment group revealed steady literacy performance increases within three tests, in addition, this self-questioning teaching model is helpful for their scientific literacy performances (i.e. explain phenomenon scientifically and interpret data and evidence scientifically) and reading literacy performances (access and retrieve information、integrate and interpret information and reflect and evaluate information). However, this model didn’t help much when it comes to the designing of scientific inquiries with respect to their understandings of science news. Finally, the analysis of learning sheets also indicated that the core competences achieved within experiment group students were their critical thiking regarding evidences appeared in those articles.

For a computer science teacher, the rapid advancement of computer science and computer technology magnifies the importance of the on-the-job continuous education. For beginning computer science teachers, clarifications or supplementations of subject knowledge are often needed. However, timely help is not possible under the current guidance model for first-year school teachers. In this thesis, a guidance model is proposed to address the needs of the beginning computer science teachers in terms of subject related knowledge, in which a web-based Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) system and monthly technology oriented lectures were used to supplement the usual teacher guidance model. The system architecture and quantitative and qualitative evaluations of the system are reported. Experiments have shown that the proposed model is feasible and is useful for improving the subject related knowledge of beginning computer science teachers.

The purpose of this study was to explore the changes of the experimental group students’ learning outcome after participated in the senior high school “Science and Art” club after one-year intervention of creative inquiry model (CIM) in the middle of Taiwan. Students’ learning outcome included examining experimental group students’ scientific inquiry ability and engagement, scientific creativity and influenced factors, and comparing the motivation in science learning and the learning patterns in the experimental group as well as control group 53 students with low motivation in science learning that were selected purposely from different academic areas, sociology group class, science group class, physical education class and English class. The control group, 27 students with similar learning performance as control group, received only traditional teaching. 26 students in the experimental group participated in traditional teaching as well as CIM for one year. The combination of qualitative and quantitative research designs were used in the study. Quantitative data includes (1)Assessment in Scientific Inquiry Ability, the scores of experimental group students’ study reports were based on the scientific standards of the Oregon Department of Education (ODE, 2011), (2)Assessment in Scientific Creativity, the scores of scientific creative’s in the experimental group students’ before and after CIM activities were based on the “Scientific Creativity Product Criteria” that revised by Lin and Chin (2018), and Lin, Tuan and Chin (2017), (3) Science Learning Motivation: The experimental group and the control group students answered the “Scientific Learning Motivation Questionnaire”, that was based on Wu, Tuan, Hsieh and Chin (2013). Qualitative data included individual interviews and group interviews with the experimental and control group students and teachers. In addition, for the experimental group data collection included classroom videos, students’ worksheets, study sheets and their reflective notes, and teachers’ journals. The results and findings of the research were presented through classification, coding and interpretation. Findings showed that CIM significantly improved senior high school students with low science learning motivation in the science learning in the following dimensions: (1) Changes in scientific inquiry ability and engagements: Students in different groups in the experimental group had different levels of inquiry ability improvement, and the higher the engagements, the more advanced the inquiry ability. (2) Changes on scientific creativity and researches on influenced factors: Quantitative data showed that the progress of scientific creativity is mainly determined by the iii completion of "problem solving". The qualitative data shows that the stronger the task motivation on the activity, the more conducive to scientific creativity; the higher inquiry ability is benefit to produce more conducive to scientific creativity. The greater openness on the activity enhance more favorable for students to cross and integrate between the difference subjects, and is conducive to creative thinking. (3) Differences in science learning motivation and changes in learning patterns: The experimental group's motivation of science learning was significantly higher than the control groups, because students experienced creative training made experimental group students’ success on CIM activities and significantly reduced learning anxiety. On the contrary, most of the control group students still used the traditional learning strategies, which was mainly based on mastery learning, and the learning anxiety is not reduced. Keywords: CIM Activities, Scientific Inquiry Ability, Scientific Creativity, Science Learning Motivation, Senior High School Students

Many educational and psychological tests are inherently multidimensional, meaning these tests measure two or more dimensions or constructs. When item response data do not satisfy the unidimensionality assumption, multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) should be used to model the item-examinee interaction. The purpose of this study is to apply MIRT to analyze the 2009 and 2008 Science Basic Competency Test. The item response data of 5000 examinees on 58 items each for these two years were analyzed using the NOHARM program to fit both uni- and multi-dimensional models. And graphical representations are drawn using the MATLAB software to assist better understanding of what tests are measuring. The results showed that: (1)for dimension analysis, the two-dimensional solution is better than the unidimensional solution for both data sets based on the values of three fit indices, although the unidimensional solution fits the data well enough; (2) given by the results from item vector plot, the Science Basic Competency Test of 2009 and 2008 are more like two-dimensional tests than unidimensional ones. From the test information surface, it was found that the direction of maximum information from the axis for each year is close to the angle of and , respectively. This is also the direction of maximum discrimination. Finally, the clamshells graphs show that the tests are less effective in distinguishing examinees with both traits are high or both traits are low.
