  Meaning making in science is supported by different modes, such as spoken and written language, images and gestures, all of which have different affordances. The epistemological commitments of modes are affordances that cannot be avoided. This article investigates how the epistemological commitments of modes affect possibilities for learning. Video data was collected from a learning activity where upper secondary students drew and explained an experiment representing the greenhouse effect. The analysis uses the variation theory of learning, which assumes that students learn when they notice new aspects of objects of learning by experiencing variation against an invariant background. Such variation can be created through the representations used. Findings show that, in the learning activity, variation was created in a range of modes. Some of the variation, particularly with regards to radiation, was due to the epistemological commitments of drawing. However, these aspects of radiation went unnoticed by the students, possibly because several aspects varied simultaneously. The teacher then helped the students to become aware of certain variation. Implications for the teaching and learning of science when taking the epistemological commitment of different modes into consideration include both challenges, such as when unintended variation is created, and opportunities, such as when spontaneously occurring variation can be taken up for discussion.

  Hvordan kan naturfaglæreren skape interesse for naturfaget hos elevene og legge til rette for at de utvikler sin fagforståelse og evne til å anvende det de har lært? Skolens naturfagundervisning har blitt karakterisert som en mil bred og en tomme dyp, men anbefalingen nå er å konsentrere undervisningen rundt dybdelæring i noen sentrale og grunnleggende byggesteiner i faget. Hva betyr dette i praksis? I «Dybdelæring i naturfag» viser forfatterne hva dybdelæring er, og de presenterer ny forskning på hvordan man kan legge opp undervisningen for å fremme god progresjon i faglig forståelse, kunnskaper og ferdigheter. Dybdelæring er gjennomgående i alle kapitlene og sees i sammenheng med fagdidaktiske tema som valg av kjerneelementer i faget, utforskende undervisning, bruk av modeller, ulike læringsarenaer og grunnleggende ferdigheter.

  Teaching and learning Plate tectonics in school science – a research design Guttormsen, J.1,* & Remmen, K.B.2 1 Department of Mathematics and Science Education, University of South-Eastern Norway 2 Department of Teacher Education and School Research, University of Oslo *Email: jgu@usn.no This paper presents an ongoing PhD-project focusing on lower secondary school students learning plate tectonics. In the new national science curriculum, Kunnskapsløftet 2020, plate tectonics is emphasized, and has the potential to facilitate deep learning. However, research on teaching and learning about plate tectonics is scarce, and more research is needed on instructional approaches on the subject (Mills, 2016). Additional research presents students’ misconceptions on important geological processes such as earthquakes, rock formation and volcanoes (Francek, 2013). Therefore, this PhD-project builds on the aforementioned research as well as theoretical perspectives on science learning. Together with teachers, a 12 hours teaching design has been developed and tried out with a class of 30 students (aged 13). The teaching activities aim to engage students in scientific practices across classroom and the local environment to learn about plate boundaries and consequential formation of major rock groups. Preliminary research questions are: a) How do students develop understanding of plate tectonic processes? b) How can teachers support students’ meaning making processes through a dialogic approach? c) In what way does learning activities in the teaching design contribute to students’ exploratory talk? Data comprise interviews with students and teacher(s), video data recorded through class- and field sessions, as well as students’ written material such as diagrams. In this presentation, we focus on the teaching design and preliminary results and implications for teaching plate tectonics in lower secondary school. References: Francek, M. (2013).
