Dear NARST community: We are saddened to share that Emeritus Professor Peter Fensham passed away recently. An article about Peter was written by Dick Gunstone for a Special Issue of Cultural Studies of Science Education. It does a wonderful job of sharing wonderful memories of Peter and the work that he did. He will be sorely missed.
