Projects
Investigating cognitive modeling in science education; using the Interactive Whiteboard
(Joint Project with Universitas 21 partner Nottingham University)
Background information:
Science teaching models represent scientific ideas. Models are designed to present an explanation of reality to students that can be safely, easily and powerfully expressed in a classroom. Teachers anticipate the model has the ability to communicate science concepts authentically. The literature committed to understanding the place of models in science education points to a need for an improved theoretical understanding of the science model and the complexity of the relationship to thinking and learning (Harré, 2004, Gilbert, 2000).
Other 'projects' include Professional Development Programs in schools:
2006 Mercy College – Science and Literacy –
Whole school approach to inquiry learning and using Science to generate interest and engagement in literacy
2005 ADASS College – Science focus
Inquiry approach to learning and role-modelling of approach strategies to support high level engagement and cognitive function.
2003 Melton Christian College
2001 Mont Albert Primary School
