inorder to develop critical thinking skills. National and state standards have begun to embrace thisbelief and suggest that students spend a significant amount of time in the classroom learning themethodology of scientific investigations and apply what they learn through projects andexperiments2,3. In particular, the Texas state standards for middle school science explicitly statethat 40% of student time should be spent conducting experiments4. This paradigm shift providesan exciting opportunity for educators and students through the use of innovative and engagingscience curriculum that further evolve students’ understanding of and curiosity about the worldaround them5.Outside of conventional classrooms, there is a need to provide students with

Forthe cases where no significant improvement was found, observations suggest that in order for theprofessional development intervention to be effective, the course format must be sufficient toadequately develop the instructional intervention strategies.
