ABSTRACT

This chapter examines how science works in outof-the-classroom contexts has an impact of some sort on participating students. For many teachers, the most familiar outdoor science activities include biological fieldwork and visits to museums. The science centres offer educational workshops for children at all stages of the National Curriculum and outreach. Some science centres offer continuing professional development resources for teachers and organise public dialogue events. Education staffs in museums, science centres, botanical gardens and other institutions that provide access to science in everyday contexts are developing increasingly appealing and effective ways to engage students in learning about how science works. Increasingly, the museum sector is finding ways to involve the public in science through large-scale research. Numerous organizations support science learning in the school grounds. Unsurprisingly, most of them promote the growing of plants, or, more specifically, vegetables for consumption.
