Description
Teaching materials for middle school based on the ISLE approach were developed following the design based research circle. All together there are 7 teaching units of 100 minutes each for 7th grade (13 -14 year-olds) covering topics that can be explained within the particle model of matter. The materials were tested with 46 students in a rural Austrian middle school. The material development process and the results from the testing will be presented.
