Kudenko, Irina; Ratcliffe, Mary; Redmore, Alison; Aldridge, Catherine – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2011
Evaluation of large-scale professional development programmes in a cost-effective but detailed manner presents challenges. Much of the research evidence on the effectiveness of professional development in science education has been the result of small-scale studies that use clustered or stratified sampling methods. Using the evidence collected…
