Who We Are

We are a team of researchers and educators working together to develop new approaches to classroom science investigations.

With funding from the National Science Foundation, we have spent the last six years trying out ideas, studying how children and teachers respond to uncertainty in classrooms, developing materials, and making tools to help others try these ideas out- and develop their own approaches to uncertainty in their classrooms.
