U.S. Pilot Study of the International Relevance of Science Education Project

This project is being conducted in collaboration with Jason Marcks at Space Education Initiatives. The International Relevance of Science Education (ROSE) Survey is an international comparative research project meant to shed light on factors of importance to the learning of science and technology (S&T) – as perceived by the learners. Key international research institutions and individuals work jointly on the development of theoretical perspectives, research instruments, data collection and analysis. This project is lead by Professor Svein Sjøberg at the University of Oslo and includes more than 40 international researchers. Survey data for the U.S. pilot study has been collected from approximately 900 students distributed geographically throughout the United States. We are in the data collection phase of this study.
