To address these concerns, researchers suggested school districts schedule a time for science instruction, acquire needed materials for science investigations, and provide teachers with sustained professional development that focuses on content knowledge, pedagogical skills, and confidence in teaching science (Brand & Moore, ; Buczynski & Hansen, ; Duschl, Schweingruber, & Shouse, ; NSB, 2010; Robinson, Shore, & Enerson, ).…”
