(2) What similarities and differences exist in how secondary-level in-service teachers and elementary-level in-service teachers engage with Pinterest? Findings indicate teachers at all levels tend to use Pinterest to search for educational resources and adapt resources to suit their classroom needs. Preservice teachers identify a more complex interaction with Pinterest than in-service teachers when determining quality resources. Findings indicate a need for future research into teacher education practices and the complex interactions preservice teachers engage in with Pinterest resources.}, number={2}, journal={JOURNAL OF RESEARCH ON TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION}, author={Schroeder, Stephanie and Curcio, Rachelle and Lundgren, Lisa}, year={2019}, pages={166–186} } @article{lundgren_stofer_dunckel_krieger_lange_james_2019, title={Panel-based exhibit using participatory design elements may motivate behavior change}, volume={18}, ISSN={["1824-2049"]}, DOI={10.22323/2.18020203}, abstractNote={Meaningful science engagement beyond one-way outreach is needed to encourage science-based decision making. This pilot study aimed to instigate dialogue and deliberation concerning climate change and public health. Feedback from science café participants was used to design a panel-based museum exhibit that asked visitors to make action plans concerning such issues. Using intercept interviews and visitor comment card data, we found that visitors developed general or highly individualistic action plans to address these issues. Results suggest that employing participatory design methods when developing controversial socio-scientific exhibits can aid engagement. We conclude by recommending participatory strategies for implementing two-way science communication.}, number={2}, journal={JCOM-JOURNAL OF SCIENCE COMMUNICATION}, author={Lundgren, Lisa and Stofer, Kathryn A. and Dunckel, Betty A. and Krieger, Janice and Lange, Makenna and James, Vaughan}, year={2019} } @article{bex_lundgren_crippen_2019, title={Scientific Twitter: The flow of paleontological communication across a topic network}, volume={14}, ISSN={["1932-6203"]}, DOI={10.1371/journal.pone.0219688}, abstractNote={The field of paleontology, which is based principally on observations of the natural world, includes an active community that is engaged across multiple social media platforms, consisting of museums, academic researchers, amateur fossil collectors, paleontological artists, and commercial fossil dealers. As such, it represents an ideal environment for examining the people, interactions, and flow of scientific information. Using interactions involving the four most popular Twitter hashtags for paleontology, this embedded mixed methods study defined the members of this social world and investigated how they influenced and controlled the flow of information, as well as how their expression of scientific practice was related to their identity. Results provide further evidence for the diversity of people and practice involved in this domain of science and indicate that the magnitude and breadth of the public’s impact may be larger than previously projected. Certain types of messages were shown to be effective for different segments of the community, but news posts, essentially media outlet stories, were ineffective for generating any form of engagement. This study adds to our understanding of the important scientific contribution being made by members of the public as they interact with professional scientists and educators as peers in an open social media platform that supports a diverse and active community.}, number={7}, journal={PLOS ONE}, author={Bex, Richard T. and Lundgren, Lisa and Crippen, Kent J.}, year={2019}, month={Jul} }
