Measuring Science Skills Development in New Zealand High School Students after Participation in Citizen Science Using a DEVISE Evaluation Scale
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lewis, Robert; Carson, Sally – New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, 2021
A goal of the New Zealand Curriculum is to equip students with the skills needed to use science critically and responsibly as citizens. One method of achieving this is through the participation in citizen science. Measuring the learning outcomes of citizen science experiences therefore, is important to ensure that development of science learning…
