- What’s in a building? Some reflections on the history of ASE headquarters
-
Issue: March 2013 348
Author: Derek Bell
Extract: The headquarters of an organisation, both the building and staff who work in it, has a key role to play in the way in which it operates and portrays its character. After presenting a brief history of the buildings the Association for Science Education (ASE) has occupied during its 50 year history, this article reflects on the role of ASE headquarters over those years in terms of the functions of headquarters, the working practices, the aspirations of the organisation, and, finally, its image and values. It argues that the relocation and setting up of a new headquarters requires each of these issues to be considered afresh.
- From secret garden to crowded marketplace: 50 years of ASE and the science curriculum
-
Issue: March 2013 348
Author: Martin Hollins
Extract: This article charts some of the most notable ways in which the science curriculum has changed over the past 50 years and identifies the influence of members of the Association for Science Education (ASE) in both projects and policy developments. The world is different from that of 50 years ago but there are continuing issues about the teaching, learning and assessing of science in which ASE members have a role to play.
- ASE and primary school science
-
Issue: March 2013 348
Author: Wynne Harlen
Extract: This article focuses on the role of the Association for Science Education (ASE) in supporting and developing policy and practice in primary school science. It first sets the events after the formation of ASE in 1963 in the context of what went before. It then takes a mainly chronological view of some, but by no means all, of ASE’s activities that have had an impact on primary science in the past 50 years. More details can be found in Chapter 4 of Advancing Science Education: the First Fifty Years of the Association for Science Education (Jenkins and Wood-Robinson, 2013).
