Abstract

There were three aspects to this research project and the findings have been reported in the previous chapters for the pre-phase, Phase 1 and Phase 2. The pre-phase had a professional development focus with students and teachers learning to investigate in science. One researcher did professional development and the other collected evidence of teacher and student learning.
