I am looking for any assessment material, survey/interview/evaluation instruments and qualitative or quantitative tools pertaining to caving: conceptual understanding (k12 and post-secondary). Anything that explores a student's understanding of caves with or without any prior caving knowledge or experience whatsoever. Additionally, I am trying to find anything that has been done with students with physical disabilities (not behavioral/emotional) in geoscience education. Any material or search leads would be very appreciated. Cheers, Chris Atchison Geoscience Education The Ohio State University 614.292.1163
