    • Natural experiments: taking the lab outdoors 

      Höper, Jan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2017-12-08)
      <p>Many teachers like to take their classes on field trips. So why do we usually confine chemistry lessons to the laboratory or classroom? The benefits of outdoor teaching are well documented (Malone & Waite, 2016; Dillon et al., 2006), and include both cognitive and skills-based aspects. It’s also well known that, for most students, solving puzzles is more exciting than reading textbooks or listening ...
