Learning Science in Informal Environments:people, places, and pursuits
Category: For Educators, Communicating Science
Resource Type: Book
Date Posted: 08/17/2009

The report assesses the evidence of science learning across settings, learner age groups, and over varied spans of time; identifying the quality of learning experiences that are special to informal environments and those that are shared (e.g., with schools) and develops an agenda for research and development. The "places" include everyday experiences, designed settings, and programs along with cross-cutting features like media as a shaper of context and tool for learning and opportunities for inclusion of diverse culturally, socially, and linguistically diverse communities.
