Project Overview
The goal of the Conceptual Dynamics Project is the development of new frameworks for capturing student learning in science.Through the development of these frameworks, we hope to inform the design and assessment of learning environments, as well as to contribute, more broadly, to research that seeks to understand thinking and learning in rich subject-matter domains.
We are particularly interested in developing techniques for capturing the learning that occurs within science curricula that are organized around tasks. These task-based curricula include project-based, problem-based, and design-based approaches.We believe that capturing learning in these kinds of curricula is particularly challenging.
The Conceptual Dynamics Project is funded by the National Science Foundation, and it operates within the Center for Learning Technologies in Urban Schools (LeTUS).
