The Role of Domain-Specific Knowledge in Generative Reasoning About Complicated Multileveled Phenomena (2007, background): “…benefit from technological advances in molecular genetics that they may encounter in their everyday lives such as genetic counseling and screening (Lewis & Wood-Robinson, 2000), nor are students informed enough to understand and participate in current debates involving genetic issues such as…”
Definition of historical models of gene function and their relation to students’ understanding of genetics (2007, background): “In this field less is done, but we consider the following references the best representatives (Hallde ´ n 1990; Pashley 1994; Martins and Ogborn 1997; Venville and Treagust 1998; Banet and Ayuso 2000; Lewis et al. 2000a, b; Lewis and Wood-Robinson 2000; Marbach-Ad and Stavy 2000; Wood-Robinson et ”
Traits, genes, particles and information: re‐visiting students’ understandings of genetics (2004, background): “…students were asked to produce coloured diagrams of chromosomes during the discussion task, was that chromosomes are either male (Y) or female (X) (Lewis and Wood-Robinson 2000): . . . there are male chromosomes and female chromosomes and the male ones go into the sperms and the female ones go…”
