48403 NARST 2011 Program.indd 9 3/16/11 4:19 PM General Information Information about NARST The National Association for Research in Science Teaching was founded in 1928 for the purpose of promoting research in science education at all educational levels and disseminating the findings of this research in such ways as to improve science teaching and learning. The Association is incorporated as a non-profit corporation in the State of Minnesota. The official publication is the Journal of Research in Science Teaching. NARST encourages presentations of a wide variety of investigations in all aspects of science education, including action, historical, philosophical, ethnographic, experimental, and evaluative research studies. Reports of empirical research, critical reviews, and theoretical works are encour- aged. Research areas of interest to NARST members include curriculum development and organization, assessment and evaluation, learning theory, teacher education, programs for exceptional students (special needs and talents), equity studies, policy, and methods of teaching.

NARST Mission Statement The National Association for Research in Science Teaching (NARST) is a worldwide organization of professionals committed to the improvement of science teaching and learning through research. Since its inception in 1928, NARST has promoted research in science education and the communication of knowledge generated by the research. The ultimate goal of NARST is to help all learners achieve science literacy. NARST promotes this goal by: 1) encouraging and supporting the application of diverse research methods and theoretical perspectives from multiple disciplines to the investigation of teaching and learning in science; 2) communicating science education research findings to researchers, practitioners, and policy makers; and 3) cooperating with other educational and scientific societies to influence educational policies. To learn more about NARST you may visit the Association’s website at http://narst.org/ and read the Bylaws approved by the membership in October 2008 at http://www.narst.org/about/NARST_bylaws.pdf.

Explanation of Program Session Formats Paper Sessions Organized by the Program Committee In a paper session, the presider introduces the presenters and monitors the time used for each presentation. All papers will be allotted 15 minutes for presentation, followed by approximately 5 minutes of questions or discussion. The presider and audience will use any time remaining in the session for additional discussion, general review, and suggestions for further research. The overall length of the paper sessions may vary based on the number of papers assigned to that session, but each paper within a particular session will observe the 15-minute presentation guideline. For example, four papers grouped together will be given a 90-minute time period, while two papers grouped together will be given a 45-minute time period for the overall session. This will optimize the grouping of papers by allowing strand coordinators to group papers based on similarity, rather than forcing the grouping of papers to fit a standard time block. Each presenter is expected to disseminate a paper during or immediately following the session, unless the paper is on the NARST 2011 CD, distributed as part of the program.

Symposium A symposium involves a panel of experts or stakeholders who examines a specific theme or issue. This format does not involve the presentation of individual papers. Therefore, individual papers and authors will not be listed under this format. Rather, the participants are listed as panel members. The proposer controls presentations, discussion, and questioning with the assistance of the presider or discussant (if designated). Discussion should promote the expression of similar or alternative viewpoints and theoretical positions. The proposer of the symposium is expected to disseminate a paper or a summary with references during or immediately following the session, unless a summary of the symposium is on the NARST 2011 CD. 10 2 011 NARST Annual International Conference

48403 NARST 2011 Program.indd 10 3/16/11 4:19 PM Related Paper Set This category accommodates, in a single session, three to five related research papers reporting several studies that originate from a common base of research. This format also allows for common elements of design or approach to be presented once rather than repetitively. The proposer and authors may determine the specifics of the session once it is accepted. For instance, those involved may opt for a formal presentation style or they may conduct their session in a more informal, discussion-oriented style. Each presenter is expected to disseminate a paper during or immediately following the session, unless a summary of the related paper set is on the NARST 2011 CD.

Interactive Poster Sessions This format offers presenters the opportunity to display their work graphically in a traditional poster session format. Displays should fit on the 48” (long) x 36” (high) tri-fold boards provided and should include a brief abstract in large typescript. Audience members will have approximately 90 minutes to circulate throughout the room to view the posters and interact with the presenters. Each presenter must set up the display prior to the start of the session and then remove it promptly at the end of the session. Each presenter is expected to disseminate a paper during the session, unless a summary of the poster is on the 2011 CD.

Guidelines for Meeting Presenters

• Go to the designated room at least 10 minutes early. • Greet the presider/discussant. • NARST provides the LCD and screen in each presentation room. NARST does not provide computers. So, you must have your own notebook computer or you may put your file on a USB flash drive in advance, in case you will be using another presenter’s computer for your presentation. • Check your understanding of the LCD projector and any other audiovisual equipment prior to the session. • Keep presentation within the designated time limit. • Invite audience comments and questions.

Guidelines for Presiders and Discussants

We have accommodated most sessions with a presider, whose role is detailed below. For sessions without presiders, we are counting on the presenters to set aside time for discussion so that the audience participants can contribute to a discussion of the papers. Presider Roles • Arrive early at designated room and arrange furniture as per desires of presenters. • Check and focus LCD projector. • Check pronunciations of the names of the presenter and their institutions. • With presenters, make a time plan, retaining the order of presenters in the program. • Start session promptly. • Introduce presenters and serve as timekeeper. Alert presenters when they have 5, 3, and 1 minute remaining. It is important to end each presentation within the agreed allocated time to ensure fairness to all presenters and in order to end the session on time. One suggestion that may be followed is if someone begins to exceed their allotted time, then it is appropriate to stand up and politely announce to the audience that you invite further discussion directly with the author(s) at the conclusion of the entire session. • Facilitate discussion, assuring equitable involvement of audience members. Close session on time.

Discussant Roles • Read papers before the session and have remarks prepared ahead of time. • Perform presider duties as detailed above, if there is only a discussant for the session. • After the presentation, make brief and cogent remarks on each paper with suggestions for future research.
