chapter
posted on 01.01.2016, 00:00 authored by I Freitag-Amtmann, Gail Chittleborough, Peter Hubber, George ArandaGeorge ArandaThis chapter describes two cases, one from Germany and the other from Australia in which science journals were used in classrooms that adopted an inquiry-based approach to teaching science. We are interested in the following research questions:
1. In what ways do teachers use journals to promote student learning of science?
2. What evidence of reasoning is present in the cases in respect of the use of learning journals?
3. When and in which form is feedback given in journals?
