Brine shrimp Ecology, children’s science observations and hypothesis making.
An English Biology Education Project
Stephen Tomkins: Homerton College, University of Cambridge.
Artemia salina (brine shrimps) kept in plastic bottles provide an easily observed and sustainable ecosystem for classroom based ecological and behavioural study by young 11-13 year old biology students. Studies of children’s sustained observing, talking and diary keeping demonstrate the importance of such observation and discussion in their own scientific hypothesis making and testing.
