Pandemi Coronavirus Disease-2019 (Covid-19) membawa tantangan dan peluang di segala sektor, tak terkecuali bagi pendidikan tinggi yang menjadi pusat studi dan tempat terjadinya interaksi akademik. Tantangan Covid-19 yang terjadi tanpa diprediksikan sebelumnya ibarat “seleksi alam” di dunia pendidikan. Istilah ini dianggap “ngeri” menurut teori evolusi. “Makhluk hidup yang tidak mampu beradaptasi dengan lingkungannya lama-kelamaan akan punah dan yang tersisa hanyalah mereka yang mampu beradaptasi dengan lingkungannya”, demikian ungkapan teori evolusi. Meskipun analogi yang bisa dibilang cukup jauh antara kedua subjek yang dibahas, di mana yang satu menjelaskan tentang makhluk hidu...
External representations (pictures, diagrams, graphs, concrete models) have always been valuable tools for the science teacher. This book brings together the insights of practicing scientists, science education researchers, computer specialists, and cognitive scientists, to produce a coherent overview. It links presentations about cognitive theory, its implications for science curriculum design, and for learning and teaching in classrooms and laboratories.
This book addresses key issues concerning visualization in the teaching and learning of science at any level in educational systems. It is the first book specifically on visualization in science education. The book draws on the insights from cognitive psychology, science, and education, by experts from five countries. It unites these with the practice of science education, particularly the ever-increasing use of computer-managed modelling packages.
Contains standards-based activities for the physical sciences that help students learn the scientific method and develop analysis skills that can be applied to science and other subjects.

Designed for reviewers of research manuscripts and proposals in the social and behavioral sciences, and beyond, this title includes chapters that address traditional and emerging quantitative methods of data analysis.
How to assess critical aspects of cognitive functioning that are not measured by IQ tests: rational thinking skills. Why are we surprised when smart people act foolishly? Smart people do foolish things all the time. Misjudgments and bad decisions by highly educated bankers and money managers, for example, brought us the financial crisis of 2008. Smart people do foolish things because intelligence is not the same as the capacity for rational thinking. The Rationality Quotient explains that these two traits, often (and incorrectly) thought of as one, refer to different cognitive functions. The standard IQ test, the authors argue, doesn't measure any of the broad components of rationality—ada...
