About the Book

This title includes an edited collection of papers containing illustrations of teaching approaches and of students' learning acquisitions in the science teaching laboratory, presentation of new evaluation tools, and theoretical frames and positions concerning laboratory work. It aims to improve both the design and the organisation of innovative laboratory practices and to provide tools and exemplary results for the evaluation of their effectiveness, adequate for labwork in order to promote students' scientific understanding in a variety of countries. The book focuses the discussion on the role of labwork in upper secondary and in higher education. The papers are based on research and developmental work carried out in five European countries in the context of the European Project "Labwork in Science Education" (LSE), which was funded by the European Union, and provide a unique framework for gaining deeper insights into the role of experimentation in science teaching and learning in a variety of contexts.
