Abstract

To a large extent attention in Chapters 6–10 has centred on the contributions individual researchers see their studies and personal publications making to the research area as a whole. In this chapter, the focus moves to the contribution of these research studies to the practices of science education.

We have a platform of research on children’s ideas in science. What are the consequences now for teaching and curriculum development?
