Developing Teachers’ Epistemic Cognition and Teaching (DeTECT) Practices for Supporting Students’ Epistemic Practices with Scientific Systems

Funder: NSF DRK12 Program, 2020

In this third instantiation of the Biograph project series, teachers from around the world implement Biograph modules to investigate needs and challenges in developing an informed public able to evaluate empirical evidence generated from scientific activities with a focus on epistemic practices–how people acquire knowledge of science and how they evaluate knowledge sources. In collaboration with University of Pennsylvania and Rutgers University.
