Theoretical background• The goal of science education is to promote SL(Roberts, 2007; OECD, 2007; Choi et al., 2011; Sarkar & Corrigan, 2014).
• SL in the current study is defined as:• developing an ability, to creatively utilise appropriate evidence-based scientific knowledge and skills, particularly with relevancefor everyday life and a career, in solving personally challengingyet meaningful scientific problems as well as making,responsible socio-scientific decisions (Holbrook & Rannikmäe, 2009).
• SL encompasses Competence-based curricula and Student learningoutcomes (e.g. Eurydice, 2002; 2011; Dillon, 2009; DeBoer, 2011).
• SL promoted through Real-life contexts (e.g. Bybee, 1993; Millar &Osborne, 1998; Bennet, Lubben & Hogarth, 2007; Murcia, 2009).
