Overview
This book brings together international science educators who have used drawings to elicit thinking across ages from young children to medical teaching, as well as visitors to out-of-school settings.
The book provides many examples of actual drawings and how they can be interpreted.
The book provides unforeseen insights into how the drawing medium helps reveal thinking that might not be elucidated by verbal questions or written choices, such as how a group of Bangladeshi women came to know the location of their kidneys more than other organs or the influence of media on a group of Austrian students studying nuclear energy before and after Fukushima.
