Stylianidou, Fani; Ormerod, Fiona; Ogborn, Jon
International Journal of Science Education, v24 n3 p257-83 Mar 2002
Outlines the findings of the Science Teacher Training in an Information Society (STTIS) project concerned with describing the possible difficulties pupils have when reading science textbook pictures on energy. Concludes that reading science textbook pictures is not trivial for pupils and that teachers need to spend time and effort talking through the meaning of the images with them. (Author/MM)
