Description

Despite its relevance in secondary science education, measurement uncertainty is a topic that is largely neglected in classroom practice and for which hardly any suitable (evaluated) teaching material exists. Consequently, it is a topic that many students have conceptual difficulties with. To investigate how this topic can be introduced, we developed a digital learning environment and report on its evaluation with 154 students from grade levels 8 to 11.
