Hi Anne and others, Our survey on student perceptions in earth and ocean science might be of interest, though some of it may be too discipline-specific for what you're looking for: http://nagt-jge.org/doi/abs/10.5408/10-199.1 Being from CU-Boulder, you are likely familiar with the CLASS instrument ( http://www.colorado.edu/sei/class/) that inspired the above survey. I have also come across the VOSTS (Views on Science-Technology-Society; https://www.usask.ca/education/profiles/aikenhead/webpage/vosts_2.pdf), though have never used it. Not sure if anyone also has experience with it? Happy to chat further about any of this. -Alison On Wed, Jan 14, 2015 at 6:54 AM, Donna Charlevoix <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Anne, > > Fouad And El Khalick from the University of Illinois is a leader in NoS. > I recall he had a very well tested instrument.
