Teaching Open-Ended Learning and Research

For many teachers science can be an intimidating subject to tackle in the classroom, they feel they don't have the necessary background knowledge and fall back onto the safety net of textbook learning. But it is becoming increasingly hard to ignore the benefits of hands-on learning over more traditional approaches. The best way for educators to overcome their trepidation is to enlist - connect with a researcher!

How to Connect with Researchers

1. Contact your local Universities or Research Centres
