Abstract
The previous chapter has reported how teachers and students learned to investigate together while the researchers took turns in facilitating the learning and making observations and interviewing students and teachers. In the next phase, the two teachers, Sue and Liz, taught science to their respective classes and the researchers interviewed the teachers, observed their teaching and conducted focus group interviews with their students.
