This paper presents the results of an intervention study exploring the effectiveness of an implementation of a selection of digital learning resources (DLR) in lower secondary science classrooms. Eight teachers participated in a quasi-experimental intervention, teaching three different subjects with and without DLRs. The data presented are from pupil tests before and after the teaching combined with observation of lessons and interviews with both pupils and teachers. In two of the three subjects the groups using DLRs did slightly better than the comparison group. The results indicate that successful ICT based learning is just as dependent on teacher competence as the quality and features of the resources.

Developing students' scientific literacy requires teachers to use a variety of pedagogical approaches including using video as a form of instruction. Using video is a way of engaging students in science ideas not otherwise accessible to them. This study investigated the use of video clips representing scientific ideas in a secondary science classroom as one component of a science program. Drawing an interpretive approach framed as authentic participant-centered inquiry the analysis used cogenerative dialoguing to generate collective perspectives on the affordances and constraints of learning from video. We found that the structure of a video in terms of density of the content delivery and its length shaped students' viewing experiences and access to science ideas. We argue that structures of the learning context afford and constrain students' opportunities to learn science from video.
