Funded Activity Summary

Affective imagination in science education: exploring the emotional nature of scientific and technological learning and engaging children and teachers. Children are born into an increasingly complex world and knowing how to engage with technologies and to think scientifically is central, yet preschool teachers are becoming reluctant to teach science. This project explores the emotional dimension of concept formation, so as to generate methodologies that engage teachers to teach more science.
