“…This scale-up context requires implementation of a science program within the participating districts' constraints of science instructional time, professional development in science with student diversity including ELLs, a science curriculum that meets the learning needs of diverse student groups including ELLs, and science supplies and equipment essential for quality science instruction. Thus, the results of the study contribute to the emerging literature on scaleup research (McDonald, Keesler, Kauffman, & Schneider, 2006;Schneider & McDonald, 2007a, 2007b, especially in science education (Lee & Luykx, 2005; see also Lee & Krajcik, 2012).…”
