Abstract
|
:
|
This book explores sixteen contemporary issues in science education, through an examination of the practical dilemmas the issues provoke for teachers. The distinctive feature of this book is that substantive arguments about these issues are contextualised and illuminated by case studies of students and teachers working together in science classrooms. Written with contributions from fifty internationally recognised science educators in seven countries, this is a unique book which presents student-teachers with personal and professional insights into a whole range of science topics including the laws of science, teaching ethics, laboratories and culture, gender and ethnicity. The extensive use of teacher-written case studies and commentaries will make this book suitable for the pre-service market, where case methods are typically used to provide a context for learning from the craft of teaching. The addition of commentaries from distinguished scholars makes the book relevant for graduate courses in science education and as a reference volume for teacher researchers. The international list of contributors guarantees worldwide recognition.
