Tang, Kok-Sing; Jeppsson, Fredrik; Danielsson, Kristina; Bergh Nestlog, Ewa – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
This paper examines the affordances of physical objects (e.g. apparatus, models, manipulatives) as they were used by teachers and students to make meaning in coordination with their speech and gestures. Despite the pervasive use of physical objects as material and tactile resources in hands-on investigations or demonstrations, there have been few…
