The scale of it all : Students' experiences of spatial scales

• This talk reports on the preliminary data and initial findings of a pilot study from a larger project investigating the teaching and learning of spatial/temporal scales in science. We video-recorded pre-service science teachers from physics and biology while completing a ranking task for objects ranging in size from the scale of a proton to the scale of the Universe. From this data, a phenomenographic analysis was carried out to determine the qualitatively different ways in which science students experience spatial scales.
