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

Anne, 

Fouad And El Khalick from the University of Illinois is a leader in NoS.  I recall he had a very well tested instrument. I don’t have a particular paper to cite but you might get in touch with him.

Best,

Hi all Geoed-researchers, 

I am designing a research program for a small pilot program that will teach students about the nature of science. Do you have suggestions for a useful instrument that addresses this? 

Thanks, 
Anne
