With the inclusion of science and engineering practices into the national science education standards in the US, teachers’ content knowledge goes beyond subject matter knowledge and into the realm of how scientists use practices for scientific inquiry. This study compares two approaches to constructing and validating two different versions of a survey that aims to measure the construct of teachers’ knowledge of models and modeling in science teaching. In the first version, a 24-item Likert scale survey containing content and pedagogical knowledge items was found to lack the ability to distinguish different knowledge levels for respondents, and validation through factor analysis indicated content and pedagogical knowledge items could not be separated. Findings from the validation results of the first survey influenced revisions to the second version of the survey, a 25-item multiple-choice instrument. The second survey employed a competence model framework for models and modeling for item specifications, and results from exploratory factor analysis revealed this approach to assessing the construct to be more appropriate. Recommendations for teacher assessment of science practices using competence models and points to consider in survey design, including norm-referenced or criterion-referenced tests, are discussed.}, number={4}, journal={EDUCATION SCIENCES}, author={Carroll, Grace and Park, Soonhye}, year={2023}, month={Apr} }

Bearing this in mind, the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) recommend engaging students in eight science practices to build their knowledge of and proficiency in science. Engaging students in science-as-practice instruction depends on building preservice teachers’ understanding of, proficiency with, and value for the science practices. Through this mixed methods study, we investigated the effects of an elementary science teaching methods course on 109 preservice teachers’ epistemic understanding of the practices, their perceived importance of each practice, and the value that they ascribe to each practice. The results of our analysis indicate that: (1) the course initiated changes in preservice teachers’ epistemic understanding of the practices; (2) these preservice teachers viewed Asking questions as the most important science practice; and (3) they most frequently attached Attainment value to the science practices. Based on these findings, we recommend that courses for preservice teachers purposefully include significant opportunities for them to engage in the doing of science; place emphasis on crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas in science; and provide preservice teachers with viable strategies for engaging students in each of the science practices in actual classrooms.}, number={4}, journal={EDUCATION SCIENCES}, author={Seung, Elsun and Park, Soonhye and Kite, Vance and Choi, Aeran}, year={2023}, month={Apr} }

As CT is a relatively new construct, preparing inservice science teachers to implement CT-infused learning experiences depends on the creation of robust CT professional development (CT-PD) initiatives. Given that teachers’ understandings, attitudes and beliefs impact their teaching, an important step in the development of these programs is identification of teachers’ conceptualizations of CT and its role in science education as well as their perceived barriers to CT/science integration. Additionally, scholars have noted that teacher PD is more effective when it is tailored to the needs of participating teachers. To this end, this survey study examined secondary science teachers’ conceptualizations of CT, perceived barriers to CT/science integration, and the types of professional support they believe is needed to overcome these perceived barriers. Analysis of 123 open-ended surveys revealed that secondary science teachers: (1) conceptualize CT as a specific type of thinking that can be used to build science students’ problem-solving skills; (2) view their lack of CT understanding as a primary barrier to CT/science integration; (3) believe their students are academically unprepared for CT-infused science; and (4) want CT-PD focusing on the what, why, and how of CT/science integration. Drawing upon these findings, multiple implications for supporting science teachers in bringing CT-infused experiences to their students are provided.}, number={4}, journal={Journal of Science Teacher Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Kite, Vance and Park, Soonhye}, year={2022}, month={Sep}, pages={1–24} }

Accordingly, there is emerging research for the design of teacher dashboards that empower instructors by providing access to quantifiable evidence of student performance and SRL processes. Typically, they capture evidence of student learning and performance to be visualized through activity traces (e.g., bar charts showing correct and incorrect response rates, etc.) and SRL data (e.g., eye-tracking on content, log files capturing feature selection, etc.) in order to provide teachers with monitoring and instructional tools. Critics of the current research on dashboards used in conjunction with advanced learning technologies (ALTs) such as simulations, intelligent tutoring systems, and serious games, argue that the state of the field is immature and has 1) focused only on exploratory or proof-of-concept projects, 2) investigated data visualizations of performance metrics or simplistic learning behaviors, and 3) neglected most theoretical aspects of SRL including teachers’ general lack of understanding their’s students’ SRL. Additionally, the work is mostly anecdotal, lacks methodological rigor, and does not collect critical process data (e.g. frequency, duration, timing, or fluctuations of cognitive, affective, metacognitive, and motivational (CAMM) SRL processes) during learning with ALTs used in the classroom. No known research in the areas of learning analytics, teacher dashboards, or teachers’ perceptions of students’ SRL and CAMM engagement has systematically and simultaneously examined the deployment, temporal unfolding, regulation, and impact of all these key processes during complex learning. In this manuscript, we 1) review the current state of ALTs designed using SRL theoretical frameworks and the current state of teacher dashboard design and research, 2) report the important design features and elements within intelligent dashboards that provide teachers with real-time data visualizations of their students’ SRL processes and engagement while using ALTs in classrooms, as revealed from the analysis of surveys and focus groups with teachers, and 3) propose a conceptual system design for integrating reinforcement learning into a teacher dashboard to help guide the utilization of multimodal data collected on students’ and teachers’ CAMM SRL processes during complex learning.}, journal={Frontiers in Education}, publisher={Frontiers Media SA}, author={Wiedbusch, Megan D. and Kite, Vance and Yang, Xi and Park, Soonhye and Chi, Min and Taub, Michelle and Azevedo, Roger}, year={2021}, month={Feb} }

Many contend that integrating CT into core curricula is the surest method for providing all students with access to CT. However, the CT community lacks an agreed-upon conceptualization of CT that would facilitate this integration, and little effort has been made to critically analyze and synthesize research on CT/content integration (CTCI). Conflicting CT conceptualizations and little understanding of evidence-based strategies for CTCI could result in significant barriers to increasing students’ access to CT. To address these concerns, we analyzed 80 studies on CT education, focusing on both the CT conceptualizations guiding current CT education research and evidence-based strategies for CTCI. Our review highlights the code-centric nature of CT education and reveals significant gaps in our understanding of CTCI and CT professional development for teachers. Based on these findings, we propose an approach to operationalizing CT that promotes students’ participation in CT, present promising methods for infusing content with CT, and discuss future directions for CT education research. }, number={2}, journal={SAGE Open}, publisher={SAGE Publications}, author={Kite, Vance and Park, Soonhye and Wiebe, Eric}, year={2021}, month={Apr}, pages={215824402110164} }

Employing a multiple-case study design, this study examined the influence of cooperating teachers (CTs) on their Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) preservice science teachers’ (PSTs) PCK during student teaching. The pentagon model of PCK for teaching science served as the conceptual framework for this study, capturing the interactions among the components of PCK and other characteristics that each PST exhibited in each observation. Data from observations, interviews, the researcher’s field notes, edTPA materials, lesson plans, and other artifacts and documents were analyzed using three approaches: (1) coding with a priori codes, (2) PCK map approach, and (3) the constant comparative method. Three salient features emerged in regard to the influence of the CT on their MAT PST’s PCK: (1) regardless of the instructional types (i.e., co-teaching or PST lead teaching) the CTs did not greatly impact PSTs’ PCK; (2) the influence of the CT on PCK usually happened during the planning and reflection stages of instruction; and (3) negotiating power dynamics was a priority in the PSTs’ instructional decision making that hindered the development of PCK. Implications of this research suggest that PSTs should be given more autonomy during student teaching with a focus on reflection.}, number={4}, journal={Journal of Science Teacher Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Norville, Kayla and Park, Soonhye}, year={2021}, month={Feb}, pages={444–468} }

This review systematically analysed 30 empirical studies on flipped classrooms in formal, K-16 science and maths classrooms to understand theoretical underpinnings leading to different approaches to flipped classrooms and the impact of flipped classrooms on student learning in science and maths classrooms. The selected studies were qualitatively analysed, and the results showed that: (1) there is more published literature on the flipped classroom identified in post-secondary science and mathematics classrooms, (2) the design of the flipped classroom is rarely grounded in theoretical frameworks especially in science classrooms, and (3) the flipped classroom has an overall positive effect on students’ science and maths learning. This study highlights the importance of using explicit theoretical frameworks aligned with contemporary learning theories to guide the design, implementation, and evaluation of the flipped classroom.

This study investigated which proxy measures of teacher quality best predict teachers’ PCK levels with 166 secondary science teachers from the U.S. and South Korea. Additionally, this study compared teachers’ PCK levels in both countries. A PCK survey consisting of 30 dichotomous and open-ended items was administered to secondary science teachers in a Midwest State in the U.S. and Seoul, South Korea. Eighty-five and eighty-one participants from the U.S. and South Korea, respectively, completed surveys. Statistical analyses indicated that biology teaching certification and teaching at the high school level were the most significant predictors of PCK total scores. No significant relationship between teachers’ gender or years of teaching experience and PCK total scores was found. Although Korean teachers exhibited higher PCK total scores than U.S. teachers, teachers from both countries similarly struggled to make connections between knowledge of students’ understanding and knowledge of instructional strategies.}, number={15}, journal={International Journal of Science Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Park, Soonhye and Choi, Aeran and Reynolds, Wm.

To accomplish this goal, science teachers must embed science content in authentic science practice. Successfully integrating content and practice will require significant epistemological and pedagogical shifts on the part of teachers. However, teachers cannot meaningfully achieve this integration if they, themselves, do not understand the epistemic underpinnings of the science practices. Given the lack of literature specifically addressing teachers’ epistemic understanding of science practices, we conducted a qualitative study to fill this gap in the literature. Data were collected using an open-ended online survey, and responses from 128 science teachers were analyzed using the constant comparative method. Our results indicate that relatively few teachers exhibited more nuanced epistemic understandings of scientific practice that extend beyond the rigid, linear scientific method presented in science textbooks. Teachers broadly believed that scientific inquiry must begin with a question, seldom cite methodological differences when comparing two experiments, frequently viewed models as teaching tools for representations and explanation, and hardly discussed computational thinking in terms beyond data analysis. More importantly, teachers viewed that scientific conclusions are heavily influenced by researchers’ perceptions and biases. To enhance science teachers’ sophisticated epistemic understanding of science, we highlight the need not only to engage teachers in authentic scientific inquiry experiences, but also to provide opportunities to learn how to effectively integrate science practices as a coherent system, especially computational thinking and models, into science lessons.}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Science Teacher Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Kite, Vance and Park, Soonhye and McCance, Katherine and Seung, Elsun}, year={2020}, month={Sep}, pages={243–264} }

According to Kuhn, a discipline's paradigm drives research, provides explanations, and directs the accumulation of discipline-specific knowledge. In 2006 and 2008 Jeanette Wing authored articles that reignited interest in computational thinking (CT) education and CT education research. Wing's articles, arguably, set in place the conceptual foundations of the paradigm currently guiding CT education and paved the way for a fruitful decade of CT education research. We are concerned, however, that the present direction of CT education and research will not support CT as an integral part of K-12 education. In its current form, CT instruction focuses almost exclusively on teaching students to program and isolates CT from disciplinary content; perpetuating the persistent misconception that programming = CT. This approach to CT education may deprive students of the opportunity to adequately develop foundational CT skills (e.g. systems thinking, abstraction and generalization, data collection and utilization, solution evaluation) and may prevent teachers from persistently and meaningfully integrating CT into their curriculum. Through this talk, we identify features of the current CT paradigm, question their alignment with Wing's ideal of "computational thinking for everyone," and propose specific recommendations for expanding the current CT paradigm.}, journal={Proceedings of the 50th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education}, publisher={ACM}, author={Kite, Vance and Park, Soonhye and Wiebe, Eric}, year={2019}, month={Feb} }

This study utilized a mixed-methods design using both qualitative and quantitative data collected with 55 participants over four years. The TSI (Teaching Science as Inquiry) was administered at the beginning and end of the course to estimate participants’ self-efficacy. We only measured PSTEB (Personal Science Teaching Efficacy Belief) using 34 items out of the TSI to reduce test fatigue. We also conducted semi-structured interviews at the end of the course to investigate sources for their self-efficacy. The paired samples t-test of the pre- and post-course survey indicates that preservice teachers’ self-efficacy in teaching science as inquiry increased significantly as a result of participating in the course (p < .001). Analysis of the interview data revealed eight main sources of self-efficacy and each one’s relative significance compared to other sources. The findings of this study imply that the camp-based course increased pre-service teachers’ self-efficacy by providing not only various mastery experiences, but also unique experiences that afforded reflection and mentoring, and drew camp participants’ positive reactions. This study highlights the potential of informal science education settings as field experience sites especially for elementary science methods courses.}, number={8}, journal={Journal of Science Teacher Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Seung, Elsun and Park, Soonhye and Lee, Myung-Ah}, year={2019}, month={Jul}, pages={872–889} }

This journey starts by recounting the process that led to an update and significant revisions to the model of teacher professional knowledge and skills including PCK (informally known as the 2012 Consensus Model (CM)). Then, we unpack and describe the different components of the model in both diagrammatic form and in explanatory text. The RCM describes the complex layers of knowledge and experiences that shape and inform teachers’ practice and mediate student outcomes. A key feature of this model is the identification of three distinct realms of PCK—collective PCK, personal PCK, and enacted PCK. These realms are used to situate the specialised professional knowledge held by different science educators in different settings ranging from the collected knowledge understood by many to the unique subset of knowledge an individual teacher draws upon. The model also recognises that the broader professional knowledge bases are foundational to teacher PCK while the learning context a teacher is working in can greatly influence the teaching and learning that takes place.}, booktitle={Repositioning Pedagogical Content Knowledge in Teachers’ Knowledge for Teaching Science}, publisher={Springer}, author={Carlson, Janet and Daehler, Kirsten R. and Alonzo, Alicia C. and Barendsen, Erik and Berry, Amanda and Borowski, Andreas and Carpendale, Jared and Kam Ho Chan, Kennedy and Cooper, Rebecca and Friedrichsen, Patricia and et al.}, editor={Hume, A. and Cooper, R. and Boroswski, A.Editors}, year={2019}, pages={77–94} }

Four categories emerged concerning teacher perceptions of misconceptions: Concept, Knowledge Construction, Curriculum, and Pedagogical. Most teachers employed Concept or Knowledge Construction perspective to identify and reason out student misconceptions in both countries. In respect to instructional strategies, two dominant patterns emerged: content-focused and student-focused strategies. Teachers from both countries demonstrated the most frequent use of content-centered approaches, although the patterns of the usage in relation to their perceptions towards misconceptions were different to some degree.Conclusions:Possible attributing factors for the observed patterns and some limitations of the study are further discussed.}, number={1}, journal={EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education}, publisher={Modestum Publishing Ltd}, author={Choi, Aeran and Seo, Kyungwoon and Park, Soonhye}, year={2017}, pages={269–296} }

Then, individual studies within each purpose group were analyzed in depth in terms of metaphor elicitation methods and analysis methods. Based on the analysis, we discuss methodological issues associated with metaphor research. Suggestions for resolving these issues are also discussed, focusing on the validity of metaphor elicitation, analysis techniques, and the trustworthiness of metaphor research. We suggest that researchers pay more attention to the use of multiple elicitation methods, clarity of data analysis procedures, and application of various strategies to establish the trustworthiness. We also call for a broader research effort to use metaphors as an intervention tool, beyond simply a methodological tool to improve teachers’ professional knowledge or teaching practice.}, journal={Metaphor in Language, Cognition, and Communication}, publisher={John Benjamins Publishing Company}, author={Seung, Eulsun and Park, Soonhye and Jung, Jinhong}, year={2015}, pages={39–64} }

Although research indicates a positive relationship between student perceptions of science and their science learning, this area has not been sufficiently explored in Korea. Particularly, even though both students' perceptions of scientific practice and their understanding of the nature of science (NOS) are influenced by their science learning experiences at schools, little research examines how this perception, understanding, and experience are related to one another. This study aimed to uncover Korean students' perceptions of school scientific practice through exploring their drawings, writings, and responses to questionnaires. Participants were 500 Korean students in 3rd, 7th, and 10th grades who were asked to complete an open-ended questionnaire. The results indicated that Korean students typically viewed school scientific practices as experimental activities or listening to lecture; and that most participants held an insufficient understanding of the NOS. Overall, no significant relationship emerged between students' perceptions of school scientific practice and their understanding of the NOS. Our findings highlight the need to help both teachers and students understand the potential breadth of school scientific practices, beyond simple ‘activity mania.’ This study also suggests that teachers must balance implicit and explicit instructional approaches to teaching about the NOS through scientific practices in school science contexts.}, number={16}, journal={International Journal of Science Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Yoon, Sae Yeol and Suh, Jee Kyung and Park, Soonhye}, year={2014}, month={Jun}, pages={2666–2693} }

Data were collected at the beginning of the course and at the end to determine if there are changes made during the length of the course. The initial student survey included several open ended questions aimed at identifying general perceptions of learning and how they thought they would learn anatomy. Fifty‐six initial surveys were completed from students in four different anatomy courses. Preliminary results indicate that students preferred either an apprenticeship or a practice model for general learning. Students indicated that they would learn anatomy by repetition/memorization, reading, attending lecture, and studying notes. Although anatomy students believed that they learned better in an active learning environment, many indicated that they perceived learning anatomy in passive and behaviorist approaches.

Qualitative interviews were conducted with 14 teachers who were either considering NBC, in the process, or had been awarded NBC. Interview data were analyzed using the constant comparative method. Results indicated that teacher interactions triggered by NBC helped one another's professional development in several ways: (a) enhancing reflection on teaching practice, (b) establishing a professional discourse community, (c) raising the standards for teaching performances, and (d) facilitating collaboration. Implications for teacher professional development were discussed.}, number={4}, journal={Teaching and Teacher Education}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Park, Soonhye and Oliver, J.

Participants were 35 secondary science teachers. Data were collected from open-ended questionnaires and interviews. Results indicated that participants showed a growing awareness that creativity can be expressed by every student; creativity can be enhanced; science has a much wider range of activities that foster creativity; and creativity-centered science teaching can be implemented in Korea. The major elements of the professional program that promoted these perceptual changes included hands-on creativity activities, observation of creativity-centered classrooms, and discussion with other teachers. Follow-up study revealed that their perceptual changes have been reflected in their teaching practices.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Science Teacher Education}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Park, Soonhye and Lee, Soo-Young and Oliver, J.
