Abstract

'Articulate science: Re-thinking the school education of prospective scientists’ investigates the relationships between Australian professional scientists and the broader community. Data production for ‘Articulate Science’ was by a one-to-one semi-structured interview in which the participant was asked to draw a variety of sketch graphs and diagrams as he or she elaborated on aspects of their development as scientists. The use of these diagrams and graphs proved successful. We explore some of the ways in which they were used by participants and researchers during the interview. We give examples of participant responses and feedback about the interview.
