Student views of an out-of-school, university lab science enrichment programme

This paper examines students' perspectives on a science enrichment programme led by a university-based science outreach initiative. Few studies have previously examined the impact of such experiences from the student perspective. Findings suggest carefully designed out-of-school inquiry programmes broaden students' experiences of science, particularly for those from under-resourced schools. The paper includes a checklist of conditions for success for out-of-school inquiry programmes which may be of interest to ISE educators.
