We introduce this approach to teachers' framing of phenomena in community as supporting students' framing of phenomena as personally and locally relevant. Drawing on classroom observations of remote learning during the COVID‐19 pandemic, we took an analytic approach that characterized features of classroom discourse to rate community‐oriented framing at the lesson level. Results show that teachers framed phenomena as both social and scientific, and as rooted in students' lived experiences, with classroom activities designed to gather localized and personalized evidence needed to explain or model phenomena. We also share examples of how Black and Latinx students took up this framing of phenomena in their classroom work. By providing a detailed description of the launch and implementation of activities, findings illustrate how community‐oriented framing supported teachers in posing local questions of equity and justice as simultaneously social and scientific, and helping students perceive science learning as meaningful to their everyday lives. Community‐oriented framing offers a practical means of designing locally and socially relevant instruction. We contribute to justice‐centered science pedagogies by conceptualizing transformative science learning environments as those in which students understand their goal in science class as understanding, and later addressing, inequities in how socioscientific issues manifest in their community.}, journal={JOURNAL OF RESEARCH IN SCIENCE TEACHING}, author={Clark, Heather F. and Gyles, Symone A. and Tieu, Darlene and Venkatesh, Shriya and Sandoval, William A.}, year={2024}, month={Apr} } @misc{sandoval_2023, title={Epistemic cognition}, ISBN={9780128186299}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-12-818630-5.14019-9}, DOI={10.1016/b978-0-12-818630-5.14019-9}, abstractNote={Epistemic cognition refers to how people think about the nature of knowledge and knowing.

Video recorded instruction of eight climate change-anchored lessons spanning three consecutive years were thematically coded. Results indicate that the problematic aspects of the NGSS’s characterization of climate change can help explain the framing of environmental issues and the compartmentalization of humans relative to the climate science in teachers’ lesson plans and instruction.

Several different lines of research design children’s and adolescents’ learning environments in ways that capitalize on self-initiated, largely self-directed question-asking and answer-seeking.

We discuss inquiry, and its importance for students developing a sense of agency and value in conducting their own inquiry and their learning more broadly. The role of argument, a context in which claims are expected to be justified by appeal to evidence, is highlighted as it can lead one to question a claim being made, and thus be seen as a driving factor to engaging in discourse about a claim. Finally, we stress that teachers must learn to cede control to an extent that allows students autonomy in choosing questions they find authentic and worthy of pursuit, and in letting students engage and address one another directly, allowing them to develop the norms of discourse that reinforce accountability to one another.}, journal={The Questioning Child}, publisher={Cambridge University Press}, author={Kuhn, Deanna and Modrek, Anahid S. and Sandoval, William A.}, year={2020}, month={Jan}, pages={232–251} } @article{sandoval_enyedy_redman_xiao_2019, title={Organising a culture of argumentation in elementary science}, volume={41}, ISSN={0950-0693 1464-5289}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/09500693.2019.1641856}, DOI={10.1080/09500693.2019.1641856}, abstractNote={ABSTRACT Most of the research on argumentation in science education has documented the myriad flaws in students’ argumentation, and the difficulties teachers have organising productive arguments in the classroom.

Despite decades of research on students’ ideas, and decades of instructional reforms, it remains very hard to change students’ ideas about the nature of scientific knowledge and practice. There are essentially two specializations in science education related to epistemology: research on student’s conceptions of the nature of professional science (NOS) and research on students’ own efforts to make scientific meaning of the world through inquiry, modeling, argumentation, and so on. They have produced different conclusions about students’ understanding of the epistemology of science (Sandoval, 2005), and the fact that they are in very little dialogue with each other is a major obstacle to producing a coherent theory of epistemological development; a point I expand on below. Without such a theory, however, it is difficult to see how instructional experiences in school are likely to help students develop productive understandings of the epistemology of science. There are, at least, two reasons why we should want all students to leave high school with productive understandings of the epistemology of science. One is so that people understand what makes science science, to distinguish science as a field of human endeavor from other human endeavors. The second reason is to be able to use this understanding to identify scientific arguments and explanations from other kinds, and to be able to evaluate them in}, journal={Science Education}, author={Sandoval, W.

The journal’s Design Research Strand was created in the aftermath of the National Research Council’s (2002) famous report on educational research that appeared to claim a role for design experiments that practitioners of the form may not have chosen for themselves. Special issues of Educational Researcher, 43(1), Educational Psychologist, 39(4), and the Journal of the Learning Sciences, 13(1) were devoted to design research methods, and more recently books on the subject have appeared in Europe (Van den Akker, Gravemeijer, McKenney, & Nieveen, 2006) and the United States (Kelly, Lesh, & Baek, 2009), showing the reach of design research methods around the world. As the new co-editors of this strand, we want to acknowledge the efforts of our predecessor, Sasha Barab, for developing this aspect of the journal. Here, we want to describe what we see as compelling issues for the development of design research as a methodology. We see a need to be able to respond to various issues in the current (and future) world of educational research. The first is the ability to clearly communicate to a range of audiences how design research generates valid inferences about the problems to which it is addressed. A second issue is the development of capacity within the learning sciences to train the next generation of scholars to conduct rigorous research. A third is to develop some sort of epistemological framework, or perhaps frameworks, that can address the first two issues.

When? for what purpose? As calls for argumentation to take a central place in science instruction increase (Driver et al., 2000; Duschl & Osborne, 2002; Kuhn, 1993b), answers to these questions become more important. There are two key claims for engaging students in scientific argumentation. One is that argumentation is a central practice of science, and thus should be at the core of science education. The other is that understanding the norms of scientific argumentation can lead students to understand the epistemological bases of scientific practice. We are more interested in this second claim. We think it unlikely that people who do not practice science are likely to engage in truly scientific argumentation. At the same time, we see everyday contexts all around us where people might apply scientific arguments to further other kinds of arguments.

In these analyses, we aim to explicate the relations between students' conceptual understanding of specific domains and their epistemic understanding of scientific practices of argumentation as they try to learn science through inquiry. We present a method that assesses the warrant of explanatory claims, the sufficiency of the evidence explicitly cited for claims, and students' rhetorical use of specific inscriptions in their arguments. Students were attentive to the need to cite data, yet they often failed to cite sufficient evidence for claims. Students' references to specific inscriptions in their arguments often failed to articulate how specific data related to particular claims.

Decades of research show that this does not happen. Inquiry-based instruction is advocated as a means for developing such understanding, although there is scant direct evidence that it does. There is a gap between what is known about students' inquiry practices and their epistemological beliefs about science. Studies of students' ideas about epistemological aspects of formal science are unlikely to shed any light on how they perceive their own inquiry efforts. Conversely, inquiry-based instruction that does not account for the epistemological beliefs that guide students' inquiry stands very little chance of helping students to understand professional science. This paper reviews largely independent lines of research into students' beliefs about the nature of science and their practices of inquiry to argue that students' inquiry is guided by practical epistemologies that are in need of study. An approach to studying practical epistemologies is proposed that has the potential to produce a better psychological theory of epistemological development, as well as to realize goals of a science education that develops scientifically informed citizens. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Still, it has never been simple to translate theoretical insights into educational practice. Educational psychology has been criticized for not creating “usable knowledge” (Lagemann, 2002). Currently, educational researchers generally have been pushed to justify how their claims are “scientific” and “evidence-based” (National Research Council, 2002). There is a tension between the desire for locally usable knowledge on the one hand and scientifically sound, generalizable knowledge on the other. Lagemann, for example, argued that the traditional paradigm of psychology has striven for experimental control at the expense of fidelity to learning as it actually occurs. Thus, although such claims might be scientific in one sense, they do not adequately explain or predict the phenomena they purport to address. This critique extends the long-standing debate surrounding the ecological validity of well-defined psychological tasks and their relation to psychological phenomena as they come to occur in everyday settings (Brunswik, 1943; Lewin, 1943). As a field, we still lack an adequate methodological reconciliation that attends to issues of both experimental control and ecological validity. At the same time, there is considerable unease with the perceived “credibility gap” (Levin & O’Donnell, 1999) of much of educational research because it is not produced with what are considered to be scientific methods. From this perspective, the knowledge from educational research has limited usability because it is not trustworthy. An educational psychology that is both usable in a practical sense and scientifically trustworthy cannot proceed without directly studying the phenomena it hopes to explain in its inherent messiness. A little over a decade ago, Brown (1992) described her evolving approach to “design experimentation” as an effort to bridge laboratory studies of learning with studies of complex instructional interventions based on such insights. She showed how insights from the laboratory were inherently limited in their ability to explain or predict learning in the classroom. The challenge, as she saw it, was to develop a methodology of experimenting with intervention designs in situ to develop theories of learning (and teaching) that accounted for the multiple interactions of people acting in a complex social setting. At the same time, Collins (1992) was putting forth a notion of educational research as a “design science,” like aerospace engineering, that required a methodology to systematically test design variants for effectiveness. Achieving such a design science, however, requires a sufficient understanding of the underlying variables at all relevant layers of a complex social system (schooling)—an understanding that we do not yet have (Collins, Joseph, & Bielaczyc, 2004). The last 12 years have seen an increasing uptake of the design experimentation methodology, so much so that a recent handbook on research in math and science education is replete with examples and formulations of the approach (Kelly & Lesh, 2000). The general approach has been called by many names. We have settled on the term design-based research over the other commonly used phrases “design experimentation,” which connotes a specific form of controlled experimentation that does not capture the breadth of the approach, or “design research,” which is too easily confused with research design and other efforts in design fields that lack in situ research components.

Groups often failed to explicitly cite data to support key claims, however, both because of difficulty in interpreting data and because they did not seem to see explicit evidence as crucial to an explanation.

Not because it will discipline their minds to logical thinking, but because through programming they can learn to express ideas, especially mathematical and scientific ideas, that are difficult to express in text. Furthermore, they may come to express these ideas in ways that enhance their abilities to think about them. In his provocative, ambitious new book Changing Minds: Computers, Learning, and Literacy, diSessa argues that computer technology makes possible a new “computational literacy” that may have the power to change the way we think, with the same influence that textual literacy has had on our culture. diSessa sees such a literacy as especially beneficial for learning science and mathematics, as a way for students to represent and conceptualize complex ideas, and to construct dynamic, interactive representations that support scientific thinking. If we are to see such benefits, diSessa argues, then we must first understand what a computational literacy might look like, and then figure out how to design for it. Changing Minds presents his efforts to do just that, through his longstanding research program on his Boxer programming system. diSessa starts by trying to formulate an idea of how “a literacy” might be defined. In his view, we take our current textual literacy so much for granted that when we think of “literacy” that is what we think of. Other uses of the term connote a pale shadow of textual literacy. diSessa takes particular issue with the popular notion of “computer literacy,” usually defined as achieving a basic functional competence in operating one’s computer, as being remotely like a real literacy. Literacy implies a deep, not superficial, understanding of a particular representational form (e.g., our textual symbol system) and an ability to use it to produce}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Educational Computing Research}, publisher={SAGE Publications}, author={Sandoval, William A.}, year={2001}, month={Sep}, pages={197–203} } @inbook{tabak_smith_sandoval_reiser_1996, place={Berlin Heidelberg}, title={Combining general and domain-specific strategic support for biological inquiry}, ISBN={9783540613275 9783540684602}, ISSN={0302-9743 1611-3349}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/3-540-61327-7_126}, DOI={10.1007/3-540-61327-7_126}, abstractNote={BGuILE is a learning environment in which students explore rich problem contexts in evolutionary biology and behavioral ecology.
