The changing landscape of science and science education has provided an impetus to re-imagine how science can be taught in schools. The dawn of the Big Data era, especially in astronomy, and the notion of “Science as Practice” are some of the developments driving this need for a re-imagination of science education. This current work contributes to this agenda by exploring the features an educational design framework for developing a web-based interface that will support school students to engage with Big Data in the context of authentic science inquiry. The aim is to bring authentic data into the classroom, in a way that allows students to experience Science as Practice, providing teachers with the scaffolding resources to implement this into their classroom. The paper explores the challenges associated with the educational design for such inquiry-based projects, and how these may be overcome. A preliminary user interface design is presented, and guidelines for construction and direction are discussed.

科学和科学教育领域的不断变化为重新思考如何在学校教授科学提供了动力。大数据时代的来临，尤其是在天文学领域，以及“科学即实践”的概念是推动对科学教育进行重新构想的一些发展。当前的工作通过探索功能性教育设计框架来开发基于Web的界面，该功能将支持学校学生在真实的科学探究中与大数据互动，从而为这一议程做出了贡献。目的是将真实的数据带入教室，以使学生体验“科学即实践”的方式，为教师提供将其应用于教室的脚手架资源。本文探讨了与此类基于查询的项目的教育设计相关的挑战，以及如何克服这些挑战。介绍了初步的用户界面设计，并讨论了构造和方向指导。
