Wegener and Continental Drift
This main unit in the Ideas and Evidence pack from the Pupil Researcher Initiative is about how difficult it can be for new ideas in science to become accepted.

Darwin and Evolution
This main unit in the Ideas and Evidence pack from the Pupil Researcher Initiative is about how new scientific ideas become accepted. In the past, there was much opposition to a new idea if it contradicted the religious views that people held. This made it hard for the new idea to become accepted. A good example of this was Darwin’s…
Dalton and Particle Theory
This main unit in the Ideas and Evidence pack from the Pupil Researcher Initiative is about how scientists dream up new ideas. Scientists can work on a problem for many years, and have to be very creative to solve it. They are often building on the work of other scientists who came before them. A good example is the theory of particles,…
