From Experience to Expertise: A Case Study of Biology Teachers’ Pedagogical Content Knowledge Development
type: item
description: PCK is the experiential knowledge and skills acquired through classroom experience and it is the integrated set of knowledge, concepts, beliefs, and values that teachers develop in the context of the teaching situation. Research showed that experienced teachers have more integrated and developed PCK than beginning teacher (Lee, Brown, Luft, & Roehrig, 2007). But, how expert teachers develop their PCK? In this study, PCK is defined as a set of knowledge that teachers use to teach topic specific content. Five high school biology expert teachers participated in this study. They are interviewed to review their knowledge development processes. Concept maps are drew by the interviewer and the teacher together to identify expert teachers’ PCK components development and their relationships between each other. Then they were also interviewed about how they use these knowledge to design and teach a specific lessons based class observations or teaching video records. Based on interview and concept maps analysis, 5 explicit themes were identified: (1) Subject matter knowledge;(2) Student; (3) Pedagogy; (4) Class teaching; (5) Self-identity. Expert teachers developed their PCK components in different order and by different means, which were significantly driven by the teacher's personal study and work experiences. Implications and recommendations for teacher preparations and professional development programs were discussed.

How is CO2 Changing the Seawater? Junior High School Lessons on Ocean Acidification
type: item
description: Ocean acidification (OA), driven by increased atmospheric CO2, poses a significant threat to marine ecosystems, particularly affecting organisms that rely on calcium carbonate (CaCO3) for their shells and skeletons. Despite extensive research on OA, there is a notable gap in junior high school science education regarding this phenomenon. This study aims to address this gap by developing and implementing educational materials to enhance Japanese junior high school students' understanding of OA. Two lessons were designed and taught to third-year junior high school students in Okayama Prefecture, Japan. The first lesson investigated the relationship between OA and water temperature through hands-on experiments using artificial seawater and pH indicators. The second lesson focused on the impact of OA on marine organisms, utilizing molecular models to simulate the formation of CaCO3 under current and acidified ocean conditions. Pre- and post-lesson questionnaires assessed changes in students' understanding. The educational intervention significantly improved students' comprehension of OA, with statistically significant increases (p < 0.01) in median scores for eight out of nine questionnaire items. The greatest improvements were observed in students' (N=145) understanding of OA's impact on marine life, highlighting the effectiveness of the lessons in raising awareness of ecological consequences. The study successfully demonstrated that engaging junior high school students with hands-on experiments and real-world data can enhance their understanding of complex scientific concepts like OA. However, further refinement of the lessons is needed to address lack of knowledge, particularly regarding the role of marine algae in OA.

Indonesian Pre-Service Science Teachers' Climate Crisis Awareness and Factors Influencing Action Intention
type: item
description: This exploratory mixed-methods study examined climate crisis awareness and behavioral intention among science education undergraduates in Indonesia (N = 118). Participants completed a 30-item Climate Crisis Awareness Scale assessing scientific knowledge, risk perception, perceived responsibility attribution and governance, information literacy, and behavioral intention. Quantitative analyses (descriptive statistics and multiple regression) and qualitative content analysis of open-ended responses (n = 98) were conducted. Domain means were uniformly high (all Ms > 4.0), yet scientific knowledge exceeded behavioral intention, t(117) = 3.06, p = .028 (Bonferroni-adjusted). The regression model explained substantial variance in behavioral intention (R² = .74), with information literacy emerging as the strongest predictor (β = .53, p < .001). Qualitative findings highlighted awareness-raising and gotong royong (mutual cooperation) as salient themes. These findings suggest that climate education may benefit from prioritizing critical information literacy and culturally grounded collective frames to translate awareness into action intention.

Logical Reasoning Profile of Student Teachers in Indonesia
type: item
description: A descriptive study was carried out to get information about student teachers' logical thinking abilities. The result is then can be used to prepare learning material for them. The research was conducted on first year students who took Basic Physics courses in some Universities. Their logical thinking abilities are seen from the test scores obtained in completing the Test of Logical Thinking (TOLT). The test consists of 10 questions containing five indicators, namely proportional reasoning, controlling variable, probability, correlation and combinatorial. Each indicator consists of two questions. The number of respondents in this study was 222 students spread across seven private universities. Respondents consisted of students from the Information Technology Education, Science Education and Physics Education study programs. The research results show that 62% of respondents are still at the concrete operational level, 27% are at the transitional level, and only 11% of respondents are at the formal operational level. The results of the analysis of each indicator of logical reasoning are generally still relatively low. The highest indicator that students can achieve is the proportional reasoning indicator, while the lowest is the combinatorial indicator. Reasoning level analysis was also carried out based on majors in high school. Based on the results of the analysis, it is known that whether students have a science or non-science background, the students' level of logical reasoning is dominant at the concrete operation level. Meanwhile, students' achievements in logical reasoning indicators based on majors in high school are the same as the results for all students. The achievements of good reasoning indicators from science and non-science majors, respectively from highest to lowest, are proportional reasoning, correlational reasoning, probabilistic reasoning, controlling variables, and finally combinatorial reasoning.

Exploring the Nexus Between Students’ Interests and Science Textbook Contents: Insights from Japanese Middle School Education
type: item
description: Fostering student’s interest in science is crucial, and examining how scientific topics are presented in textbooks is essential. In Japan, textbooks serve as legally mandated teaching materials for both teachers and students. However, there has been insufficient analysis of the relationship between students’ interests and textbook content. This study analyzed middle school science textbooks and data from the Relevance of Science Education - Second (ROSES) survey. The study addressed the following research questions: “How are ROSES items on topic-level interest covered in textbooks?” “What relationship exists between students’ interests and textbook content?” The main results were as follows: (a) ROSES topics were primarily covered in the text, columns, and picture descriptions; (b) Interest level showed minimal difference based on whether the topic was included in the textbook; and (c) The number of pages in Grade 8 textbooks negatively correlated with students’ interest. Subsequently, we categorized 77 ROSES items into four groups and discussed how items in each group should be treated in science curriculum. The discussion provides insights into effectively using textbook content in science class to improve student interest, such as by utilizing the introduction part of the class or using scientific models.
