Abstract

This paper describes an experience of learning through investigation with second grade students curious about the gait of the enormous bird, Tuiuú. The study was part of the Learning Based on Investigation research project at NIED-UNICAMP. Using research in action methodology, the researchers worked with the classroom teacher to develop the steps in a scientific investigation. The 1:1 educational laptops were used in conjunction with concrete materials and various forms of record keeping. Nevertheless the students were unable to respond to their own question: "Why do the legs of the Tuiuiú bend backwards and not forwards when he walks?"
