| Resumo: | Final report from a project that addressed how, in the coming decade, we will be teaching instrumental-based science, collaborative learning activities, and issues of delivering the curriculum over the web. By permitting virtual access to key equipment, the project connected students who at present have no opportunity to engage with the practice of modern science. Researchers delivered a cohesive program of tertiary science experiments using instruments that communicate with the experimenters via an electronic laboratory notebook regardless of the location of the participants (students and their mentors). The program actively distributed throughout the sector and will be sustained by a growing community of practice. The project generated evidence of the efficacy and use of these approaches, which formed the basis of the critical analysis by the project team. |
