When socioscientific inquiry-based learning meets open schooling: the COSMOS approach to science education
During 1-5th July 2024, we had the opportunity to present and share some of the on-going work and initial findings from the COSMOS project with our academic community as part of a symposium at the 14th conference of European Researchers in Didactics of Biology (ERIDOB) that took place in Lyon, France. Five presentations across various facets of our work were delivered as follows:
Towards a multidimensional model of school openness through science education, by Dr Ariel Sarid
Socio-scientific inquiry-based learning and community engagement for open schooling, by Dr Andri Christodoulou and Dr Marie-Christine P.J. Knippels
Adapting Teacher Professional Development in COSMOS to diverse educational settings – insights from first implementation, by Dr Daphne Goldman
Working with genetically modified organisms as SSI within the COSMOS project - a case study from Sweden, by Dr Susanne Walan, Harald Raaijmakers, Prof Niklas Gericke
“I feel that what I do matters”: the impact of SSIBL-CoP implementations on student outcomes, by Dr Jelle Boeve-de Pauw and Mart Doms
The symposium was well attended, and we had the opportunity to discuss questions and issues arising from our work with primary and secondary schools and how to best support teachers in this open schooling process.
