MODELING DESIGNS FOR LEARNING SCIENCE - MoDeLS
The MoDeLS project (Modeling Designs for Learning Science) is large, multi-site project. The project is concered with developing a theoretically-grounded and empirically-supported learning progression for late elementary and early middle school students with regard to their modeling practices and metamodeling knowledge.
