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, invented by John Dalton.
