Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Epistemology
  • Law
  • Social science

Keith S. Taber spends much of his time researching Mathematics education, Science education, Epistemology, Chemistry and Concept learning. His research in Mathematics education is mostly focused on Educational research. His work in Science education addresses issues such as Heuristic, which are connected to fields such as Physical science.

Many of his research projects under Epistemology are closely connected to Simple with Simple, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Teaching method and Perspective. His work in the fields of Pedagogy, such as Learning sciences, overlaps with other areas such as Field.

His most cited work include:

  • The Use of Cronbach’s Alpha When Developing and Reporting Research Instruments in Science Education (861 citations)
  • BUILDING THE STRUCTURAL CONCEPTS OF CHEMISTRY: SOME CONSIDERATIONS FROM EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH (196 citations)
  • Revisiting the chemistry triplet: drawing upon the nature of chemical knowledge and the psychology of learning to inform chemistry education (187 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Keith S. Taber mainly focuses on Mathematics education, Science education, Pedagogy, Epistemology and Chemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Context and Curriculum in addition to Mathematics education. His work deals with themes such as Philosophy of science, Conceptual change and Engineering ethics, which intersect with Science education.

His study in Learning sciences, Educational research, National curriculum and Constructivism is carried out as part of his studies in Pedagogy. In most of his Epistemology studies, his work intersects topics such as Perspective. Keith S. Taber works in the field of Chemistry, namely Chemistry education.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mathematics education (39.09%)
  • Science education (30.62%)
  • Pedagogy (26.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Science education (30.62%)
  • Mathematics education (39.09%)
  • Chemistry (18.89%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Keith S. Taber focuses on Science education, Mathematics education, Chemistry, Epistemology and Engineering ethics. His Science education study is concerned with Pedagogy in general. Mathematics education and Perception are frequently intertwined in his study.

His work on Chemistry education as part of general Chemistry study is frequently linked to Nanotechnology and Computational chemistry, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work on Sociology of scientific knowledge, Philosophy of science and Conceptual change as part of general Epistemology research is often related to Research community, thus linking different fields of science. As a part of the same scientific study, Keith S. Taber usually deals with the Engineering ethics, concentrating on Educational research and frequently concerns with Cronbach's alpha, Value, Terminology and Social psychology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Use of Cronbach’s Alpha When Developing and Reporting Research Instruments in Science Education (861 citations)
  • A research-informed dialogic-teaching approach to early secondary school mathematics and science: the pedagogical design and field trial of the epiSTEMe intervention (17 citations)
  • Lost and found in translation: guidelines for reporting research data in an ‘other’ language (13 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Epistemology
  • Law
  • Social science

His primary areas of investigation include Science education, Mathematics education, Pedagogy, Curriculum and Sociology of scientific knowledge. His study on Nature of Science is often connected to Statistic as part of broader study in Science education. Mathematics education connects with themes related to Affordance in his study.

The Pedagogy study combines topics in areas such as Physical science and Episteme. His studies in Curriculum integrate themes in fields like Generalization and Counterintuitive. His Sociology of scientific knowledge research is under the purview of Epistemology.
