Science Investigations Online GOES LIVE!
Many thanks for all of your responses and comments for this idea. I have created the spreadsheet that I hope to use for the sharing of results over at EditGrid (I find that this is much easier to use and currently has more features than Google Spreadsheets)
Please go to http://www.editgrid.com/user/tbarrett/Science_Online and take a look – I have even added a sheet for comments J
Currently there is an investigation, that started this thought process going, on “The effects of temperature change on the rate of dissolving” but there is no reason why this resource cannot expand as the year progresses and as more and more science is completed in classrooms.
There are no results currently present as I am on half term – but I have grand plans (that is if anyone will join me and my class) in completing the science investigation again but at the same time so we see real time changes as children enter results.
This is work in progress and I would appreciate any suggestions or ways to improve the resource, anything about design or layout too. I already have some ideas about using Flickr and perhaps Google Documents or blogs to collaborate on the scientific method as well as the results.
Please visit and contribute so we can all benefit from the science we do but never share
Create a free edublog to get your own comment avatar (and more!)
This is a super idea. I would hope to contribute at some point.
