Download or read book Misconceptions in Chemistry written by Hans-Dieter Barke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-18 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decades several researchers discovered that children, pupils and even young adults develop their own understanding of "how nature really works". These pre-concepts concerning combustion, gases or conservation of mass are brought into lectures and teachers have to diagnose and to reflect on them for better instruction. In addition, there are ‘school-made misconceptions’ concerning equilibrium, acid-base or redox reactions which originate from inappropriate curriculum and instruction materials. The primary goal of this monograph is to help teachers at universities, colleges and schools to diagnose and ‘cure’ the pre-concepts. In case of the school-made misconceptions it will help to prevent them from the very beginning through reflective teaching. The volume includes detailed descriptions of class-room experiments and structural models to cure and to prevent these misconceptions.
Download or read book Chemical Education Towards Research based Practice written by J.K. Gilbert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-01-31 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical education is essential to everybody because it deals with ideas that play major roles in personal, social, and economic decisions. This book is based on three principles: that all aspects of chemical education should be associated with research; that the development of opportunities for chemical education should be both a continuous process and be linked to research; and that the professional development of all those associated with chemical education should make extensive and diverse use of that research. It is intended for: pre-service and practising chemistry teachers and lecturers; chemistry teacher educators; chemical education researchers; the designers and managers of formal chemical curricula; informal chemical educators; authors of textbooks and curriculum support materials; practising chemists and chemical technologists. It addresses: the relation between chemistry and chemical education; curricula for chemical education; teaching and learning about chemical compounds and chemical change; the development of teachers; the development of chemical education as a field of enquiry. This is mainly done in respect of the full range of formal education contexts (schools, universities, vocational colleges) but also in respect of informal education contexts (books, science centres and museums).

Download or read book The Mixed Methods Reader written by Vicki L. Plano Clark and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2008 with total page 1281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a collection of key methodological writings in mixed methods research along with a collection of exemplar studies. This cross-disciplinary volume helps define the "literature" of mixed methods research. Selections are draw from the international literature that has appeared across diverse research disciplines over the past 30 years. Key features: writings in the field of mixed methods: methodological selections address research design types and purposes, data collection, data analysis, reporting, and future directions; offers exemplar research studies: examples include published studies from diverse disciplines, including sociology, education, evaluation, health sciences, nursing, and family science; Provides visual diagrams to illustrate exemplar research studies: these diagrams help readers understand how the method's components are implemented and how they can develop diagrams for their own studies.
Download or read book Science Teaching Reconsidered written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-03-12 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective science teaching requires creativity, imagination, and innovation. In light of concerns about American science literacy, scientists and educators have struggled to teach this discipline more effectively. Science Teaching Reconsidered provides undergraduate science educators with a path to understanding students, accommodating their individual differences, and helping them grasp the methodsâ€"and the wonderâ€"of science. What impact does teaching style have? How do I plan a course curriculum? How do I make lectures, classes, and laboratories more effective? How can I tell what students are thinking? Why don't they understand? This handbook provides productive approaches to these and other questions. Written by scientists who are also educators, the handbook offers suggestions for having a greater impact in the classroom and provides resources for further research.
