Argumentation in science teaching and learning

Argumentation is about providing justifications to claims with evidence. For example, how do we know that matter consists of particles or that day and night are caused by a spinning earth? What is the evidence? How do we know how to select which evidence? The workshop – mainly intended for secondary school teachers, but open to anyone interested in Science Education – will introduce resources and strategies to support the teaching and learning of argumentation in physics and science lessons. The session will model these pedagogical strategies and will include a brief presentation on some research findings from an interdisciplinary project conducted in the UK.

L'intervento della prof. Erduran sarà in Inglese, ma il workshop sarà accessibile anche in Italiano.
