Item Type: Article
Additional Information: Originality: Introduces a novel diagrammatic re-codification of electricity (AVOW diagrams) to the field of science education. Rigour: Demonstrates the scope of the representation over the domain and gives evidence that it improves learning in real instructional environments (part 2). Significance: Can supplement or supplant conventional approaches to electricity instruction up to undergraduate level. Impact: The potential of this novel approach is demonstrated by 2 papers accepted to the fully refereed journal School Science Review, which showed real learning gains in an intervention study with school students at 'A' level. Outlet/: The top international science education journal.
