Linking Competence to Opportunities to Learn: Models of Competence and Data Mining
ISBN: 9789048182213 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For many people, a high standard for student learning is desirable. This is what underlies current standard-based science education reforms around the world. As someone who was born and brought up in a less-privileged home and educated in a resource-limited school environment in a developing country, I always had to study hard to meet various standards from elementary to high school to univ- sity. My first book in English published over 10 years ago (Liu, X. 1996]. Mathematics and Science Curriculum Change in the People s Republic of China. Lewiston, NY: The Edwin Mellen Press) provided me...

Critical Appraisal of Physical Science as a Human Enterprise: Dynamics of Scientific Progress
ISBN: 9789048181728 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is generally believed that doing science means accumulating empirical data with no or little reference to the interpretation of the data based on the scientist s th- retical framework or presuppositions. Holton (1969a) has deplored the widely accepted myth (experimenticism) according to which progress in science is presented as the inexorable result of the pursuit of logically sound conclusions from un- biguous experimental data. Surprisingly, some of the leading scientists themselves (Millikan is a good example) have contributed to perpetuate the myth with respect to modern science being...

ISBN: 9781453894170 / Angielski / Miękka / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many college teachers of engineering or science enter their profession with inadequate training on how to be an effective teacher. When faced with intense pressure to develop their research programs, many faculty members have little time to devote to developing their teaching skills. These teachers often struggle to teach the course material to their students. The students' educations suffer, and the students will frequently shift their studies out of engineering or science to unrelated disciplines. While not everyone is going to become a great teacher, there are many simple practices that...

Conceptual Profiles: A Theory of Teaching and Learning Scientific Concepts
ISBN: 9789048192458 / Angielski / Twarda / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The language of science has many words and phrases whose meaning either changes in differing contexts or alters to reflect developments in a given discipline. This book presents the authors theories on using conceptual profiles to make the teaching of context-dependent meanings more effective. Developed over two decades, their theory begins with a recognition of the coexistence in the students discourse of those alternative meanings, even in the case of scientific concepts such as molecule, where the dissonance between the classical and modern views of the same phenomenon is an accepted norm....

Elementary Science Methods: A Constructivist Approach
ISBN: 9781111305437 / Angielski / Miękka / 632 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this pioneering text, a constructivist approach guides users in learning how to teach in a constructivist manner. The book is based on the belief that it's more important for children to learn how to do science than it is for them to learn about science, and that teachers of elementary science do not need to know a great deal of science to teach it effectively, but rather need to be co-inquirers with their students. More than 170 process-oriented activities, organized by grade level, help practicing teachers encourage children to develop and perform their own investigations.
