About the journal
Research in Science Education is an international journal which publishes scholarly science education research of interest to researchers, practitioners and others interested in science education. Articles are published relating to early childhood, primary, secondary, tertiary, workplace and informal learning contexts as they relate to science education. The aim of the journal is to promote scholarly science education research in these contexts and to bring the publication of this research to the professional research community, to practitioners in those various contexts, and to others interested in science education.
The scope of the journal is wide-ranging in both content and type of articles. Articles representing a range of qualitative, quantitative and mixed research methods are invited. The journal welcomes papers based on innovative methods. The content of the articles relates to science education generally and includes, for example, relevant aspects of information technology education and design technology education. Scholarly reports of research, major review articles and position papers, comments and criticism on recently published papers in the journal or issues of general interest to science educators are published.

Reviewing Procedure
Research in Science Education follows a double−blind reviewing procedure. Authors are therefore requested to place their name and affiliation on a separate page. Self−identifying citations and references in the article text should either be avoided or left blank when manuscripts are first submitted. Authors are responsible for reinserting self−identifying citations and references when manuscripts are prepared for final submission.
Manuscript Presentation
The journal's language is English. British English or American English spelling and terminology may be used, but either one should be followed consistently throughout the article. Manuscripts should be printed or typewritten on A4 or US Letter bond paper, one side only, leaving adequate margins on all sides to allow reviewers' remarks. Please double−space all material, including notes and references. Quotations of more than 40 words should be set off clearly, either by indenting the left−hand margin or by using a smaller typeface. Use double quotation marks for direct quotations and single quotation marks for quotations within quotations and for words or phrases used in a special sense.
Number the pages consecutively with the first page containing:
running head (shortened title)
title
author(s)
affiliation(s)
full address for correspondence, including telephone and fax number and e−mail address
Abstract
Please provide a short abstract of 100 to 250 words. The abstract should not contain any undefined abbreviations or unspecified references.
Key Words
Please provide 5 to 10 key words or short phrases in alphabetical order.
Figures
All photographs, graphs and diagrams should be referred to as a 'Figure' and they should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.). Multi-part figures ought to be labelled with lower case letters (a, b, etc.). Please insert keys and scale bars directly in the figures. Relatively small text and great variation in text sizes within figures should be avoided as figures are often reduced in size. Figures may be sized to fit approximately within the column(s) of the journal. Provide a detailed legend (without abbreviations) to each figure, refer to the figure in the text and note its approximate location in the margin. Please place the legends in the manuscript after the references.
Tables
Each table should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.). In tables, footnotes are preferable to long explanatory material in either the heading or body of the table. Such explanatory footnotes, identified by superscript letters, should be placed immediately below the table. Please provide a caption (without abbreviations) to each table, refer to the table in the text and note its approximate location in the margin. Finally, please place the tables after the figure legends in the manuscript.
Section Headings
First−, second−, third−, and fourth−order headings should be clearly distinguishable but not numbered.
Appendices
Supplementary material should be collected in an Appendix and placed before the Notes and References.
Notes
Please use endnotes rather than footnotes. Notes should be indicated by consecutive superscript numbers in the text and listed at the end of the article before the References. A source reference note should be indicated by means of an asterisk after the title. This note should be placed at the bottom of the first page.
Cross−Referencing
In the text, a reference identified by means of an author's name should be followed by the date of the reference in parentheses and page number(s) where appropriate. When there are more than two authors, only the first author's name should be mentioned, followed by 'et al.'. In the event that an author cited has had two or more works published during the same year, the reference, both in the text and in the reference list, should be identified by a lower−case letter like 'a' and 'b' after the date to distinguish the works.
Examples:
Winograd (1986, p. 204)
(Winograd 1986a, b)
(Winograd 1986; Flores et al. 1988)
(Bullen & Bennett 1990)
Acknowledgements
Acknowledgements of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the References.
