Developing a Dialogic Approach to Early Secondary School Science and Mathematics Teaching: insights and findings from the epiSTEMe project.

Prof. Kenneth Ruthven gives a talk for the Department of Education public seminar series The Effecting Principled Improvement in STEM Education (epiSTEMe) project designed and trialled a research-informed intervention which sought to incorporate a dialogic component within the teaching of early-secondary science and mathematics. This talk discusses the design and trialling of the intervention, particularly the crafting of a dialogic approach, and reports findings from a large-scale evaluation of the intervention.
