Science Action
A journal of classroom research by science teachers in Hertfordshire
The ‘Action Research’ approach to the ‘Continuing Professional
Development’ (CPD) of science teachers in Hertfordshire that was
started during the academic year 2006-07 sparked a lot of interest
both within the county and much further afield following the
publication of the first issue of this booklet. More importantly, those
teachers who took part in the research felt that it made a significant
difference to teaching and learning in their classrooms.
It was therefore decided to repeat the process during the following
academic year 2007-08 and, this time, two broad areas relating to
teaching and learning in science were identified. Each area was led
by members of the county science team, who acted as mentors to
teachers taking part across both areas.

Science Action
A journal of classroom research by science teachers in Hertfordshire
During the academic year 2006-07 the secondary science support team in Hertfordshire decided to adopt a different approach to the ‘Continuing Professional Development’ (CPD) of science teachers in the county. Teachers carried out action research in their own school supported by county staff. Many teachers submitted their findings to the GTC for TLA accreditation. The booklet 'Science Action' reports on the findings of half a dozen of the teachers.
