Masters Level Module
This core module covers foundational topics essential for
understanding and developing research in science education, with
the aim of providing a perspective on practice. It draws on a range
of relevant research and professional literature. Particular
attention is given to the fluent use of concepts and theories
related to the teaching and learning of science illuminating the
thinking underpinning the aims, perspectives and construction of
science curricula, learning theories and language in science
education, historical and philosophical aspects of science
education, within national and international contexts. Through a
mixed mode approach of online and face-to-face teaching and
learning, participants learn to write critical reviews of academic
and professional articles in science education as well as
developing theoretical frameworks from which to analyse their own
practice. The module is suitable for participants involved in
science teaching in primary, secondary or tertiary education and
for science educators in other fields such as museum
education.
