Editorial - New Directions Issue 2 December 2006
In this this issue we present a series of 'reviews' of topics in physical sciences education and educational research written by 'expert' practitioners. The publication also includes 'communications' which arise from a general call for contributions from the physical sciences education community and invited reports from the funded projects working in the physical sciences education arena. In order to increase the provenance of the journal all submissions to New Directions are peer reviewed at both the initial and the final submission stages. Once again the Editorial Team at the Physical Sciences Centre (Roger Gladwin Tina Overton and Paul Chin) has been pleased to work with Derek Raine at Leicester University (now in association with πCETL The Physics Innovations Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning) on this issue.
