Abstract

International collaboration in the design of science instruction enables us to study the impact of technology and inquiry under systematically varied conditions. Projects in the Web-based Inquiry Science Environment (WISE) engage students and their teachers in complex science investigations. By studying WISE in Europe and the United States, we have the chance to exploit naturally occurring differences in professional development and educational philosophy and gain insight into what works. This paper describes the WISE knowledge integration framework and discusses how teachers and students gain understanding of inquiry and technology as they use multiple WISE projects. It concludes with 5 research questions fruitful for international collaboration.
