This journal, NorDiNa, has its roots in a series of Nordic Conferences on science education, commencing in 1984, and this issue of the journal contains a selection of articles from the 10th in this series. I was one of those who initiated this tradition, and I use this article to reflect on some aspects of the development. Our field has in rather short time developed from a stumbling start in the mid 1970’s to become an institutionalized and professionalized academic field. The article provides a somewhat personal account of some trends in the early development of our field of research and development, and it raises some questions about our identity and challenges.Downloads
