Abstract

This symposium will draw together the work of several authors and practitioners who have investigated various approaches to engaging students in the sciences with online learning activities and e-assessment tasks. Participants will engage in debate and discussion on the affordances of the online environment, the nature of science education and what evidence we have that the online environment is appropriate and effective in engaging all students in learning in the sciences.
