Arguing from evidence is one of eight key science practices in which students should engage. It is an essential component of science, yet students have difficulties with this practice. We describe a scaffolded claims-evidence-reasoning (CER) argumentation framework that is embedded within a new eight-week, freely available curriculum unit developed by the Genetic Science Learning Center – Evolution: DNA and the Unity of Life. The scaffold provides high school students with practice in both developing and evaluating written arguments. It is designed to incrementally build student skill week-by-week, starting with an introduction to the CER components of an argument, and ending with students evaluating data and constructing a supported written argument. We also present evaluation findings from field testing the argumentation scaffold in the context of the complete Evolution unit in dozens of classrooms. And we discuss how this integrated, scaffolded approach to argumentation influenced both student and teacher learning.

<div class="WordSection1"><p>Argumentation is scientific discourse in science learning that is used as a link between knowledge from an environment and concepts in science learning. Through argumentation skills can be controlled student understanding in connecting facts with concepts in learning. This study aims to analyze students' argumentation ability on buffer solution subject. Students' argumentation ability is divided into 4 levels; level 1 (claims), level 2 (claims with data), level 3 (claims with data and one rebuttal), and level 4 (claims with more than one rebuttal). Data analysis was done by a qualitative descriptive method using a case study method. The case study method was chosen so that a study of 92 students who were research participants could be carried out in depth and comprehensive. The results obtained that the students' argumentation ability was at level 1 and level 2 argumentation. This shows that students' argumentation skills are still at low and medium levels. The results of this study can be used as a basis for improving the quality of teaching and further research.</p><strong><em></em></strong><em></em><em></em></div><em><br clear="all" /> </em>

Abstract As changes in coastal and marine environments are expected to negatively affect Brazilian ecosystems, the importance of Marine Environmental Education (MEE) comes to the fore. However, so far only 32 contributions related to this issue have been published in Brazil. The MEE workgroup of ReBentos aims at promoting EE and the communication of marine ecological research to the scholastic public as a whole, as well as to groups which exert an influence on general perception, such as the media, politicians, and scientists. This paper presents an overview of the initiatives of MEE in Brazil, with emphasis on the ReBentos projects and guidelines. The conceptual background of action is based on the Rio'92 Treaty on Environmental Education, thereby implying an MEE with Transdisciplinar, emancipatory and reflexive characteristics, directed to changes in values, principles and attitudes. During the period 2011 to 2015, 10 projects were developed from Alagoas to Santa Catarina States, involving the development, implementation and testing through scientific research of 16 MEE activity-models. The didactic material subsequently produced comprised three books and 21 book-chapters. A public of around 6,500 Conservation Unit visitors, 250 public school teachers and 800 high school students have been impacted to date. To act as monitors and multipliers, 250 undergraduate students and professionals were trained. Research project evaluation generated the publication of nine papers. As a further step, the need for protocol elaboration for each model is placed in evidence, in order to direct and facilitate future initiatives.
