Summary

This project involves researching video creation as a new method of teaching and learning with respect to science education in secondary schools. The investigators are carrying out an evaluation of an innovative method of teaching and (assessing pupils knowledge of) controversial issues and ethical issues in science. The results will provide new knowledge for the academic community of researchers working on new technologies in education and new research backed pedagogies for teachers in schools.
