Abstract ▼ AI-Helper

Scientific reasoning is one of the main concerns in current science education. This study have tried to answer on the question whether Korean science education has the potential to help improve of students' ability to think scientifically. Therefore, the present study investigated the relationship between reasoning patterns evident in science textbook and science examination items, and students' scientific reasoning skills across grades in Korea. 1975 subjects (1022 females and 953 males) were administered in the Lawson's Test of Scientific Reasoning skills. Forty seven science textbooks and 240 assessment instrument were analyzed by several scientific reasoning keys. Scientific reasoning patterns were adopted from Lawson's classification which characterized the patterns as the empirical-inductive and the hypothetical-deductive. This study found that reasoning patterns evident in textbook analyses and assessment instrumental items do not evidentce the potential to stimulate the development of students' reasoning skill. In order to improve the students' abilities to think and achieve, higher levels of reasoning must be included in the science textbook and examination. Further, some of scientific reasoning processes, such as generating hypotheses, designing experiments, and logical prediction, were not found in science textbooks and test items in Korean secondary schools. This study also discussed the educational implication of these results and further studies about to develop student's reasoning ability.

가설 설정

First, science education did not stim니ate the students thinking power. In order to improve the students* abilities to think and achieve, higher levels contents must be included in 낞le textbook.

제안 방법

The modified test contains 8 of the original 12 items. The original items were based on Piagetian tasks and involve the identification and control of variables, and proportional, probabilistic, correlational and combinatorial reasoning (Suarez & Rhonheimer, 1974). Two of the additional items on the modified test involve proportional and combinatoriai reasoning and came from Lawson et al.
This study consists mainly of two parts: test of students' scientific reasoning skills; analyzing thinking patterns of textbook inquiries, and examination items.

대상 데이터

Subjects. One thousand and nine hundred seventy-five subjects (1022 females and 953 males) ranging in age from 8.4 to 16.2 years from a big city, a small town and a rural area participated in the test of students scientific reasoning skills. Each student was enrolled 1 of 48 male or female 3러-through 1 De grade classes.
Textbook Inquiries. Reasoning patterns of all scientific inquiries in the section of biological science from sixteen elementary school textbooks (8 books about nature and 8 books about experimental observation) twenty-four 7th to 9th grade science textbooks and seven 10th grade common science textbooks were analyzed. Chapters of the section of biological science in textbooks were followed: Frogs and cabbage butterfly , 'Growth of plants', and The creatures in the pond' in the third grade of primary school; 'Small creatures' and 'Life and environment' in the fourth grade; The structures and functions of plants' and The metebolism of the body and its growth* in the fifth grade; 'Nutrition and health* and Environmental pollution and protection of nature : The neighboring creatures in the 7th grade; , The structures and functions of living things in 하le 8th grade; ^Heredity and evolution and 'Natural environment and our life' in the 9th grade; and 'Life' in the 10th grade common science textbooks.
The analyzed subjects were the textbook contents related to third grade biology in elementary school to the 10th grade in high school. These included three units from third grade in elementary school, and two units from the fourth to the sixth grade respectively; also one unit each from the seven and eight grade, and two units from the 9th grade in secondary school.
The test was originally modified from the version of Lawsori s Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning (Lawson, 1987). The modified test contains 8 of the original 12 items. The original items were based on Piagetian tasks and involve the identification and control of variables, and proportional, probabilistic, correlational and combinatorial reasoning (Suarez & Rhonheimer, 1974).
Examination Items. The objects of 난analysis of the tested items in Korean primary, secondary schools were the midterm and final exams taken in 45 scho이s. There were 240 types of test papers analyzed.

이론/모형

A 14-item written test was adapted from Kwon (1997) to assess students scientific reasoning ability. The test was originally modified from the version of Lawsori s Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning (Lawson, 1987). The modified test contains 8 of the original 12 items.
