Download or read book Science Teaching written by Michael R. Matthews and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science Teaching explains how history and philosophy of science contributes to the resolution of persistent theoretical, curricular, and pedagogical issues in science education. It shows why it is essential for science teachers to know and appreciate the history and philosophy of the subject they teach and how this knowledge can enrich science instruction and enthuse students in the subject. Through its historical perspective, the book reveals to students, teachers, and researchers the foundations of scientific knowledge and its connection to philosophy, metaphysics, mathematics, and broader social influences including the European Enlightenment, and develops detailed arguments about constructivism, worldviews and science, multicultural science education, inquiry teaching, values, and teacher education. Fully updated and expanded, the 20th Anniversary Edition of this classic text, featuring four new chapters—The Enlightenment Tradition; Joseph Priestley and Photosynthesis; Science, Worldviews and Education; and Nature of Science Research—and 1,300 references, provides a solid foundation for teaching and learning in the field.

Download or read book Science Teaching in Schools written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Science and Technology Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-11-05 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee's report examines science and mathematics teaching in secondary schools in England, focusing on the following issues: the take-up of science and mathematics at GCSE and A-level, the provision of careers advice to students, problems in the recruitment and retention of teachers, the quality of teaching methods and the role of continuing professional development. The Committee finds that effective science teaching in schools is essential, both in order to ensure a satisfactory general level of scientific literacy in society, and to enable the next generation of scientists and engineers to progress into higher education and beyond. It argues that the current examination system forces students to study an excessively narrow range of subjects at too early an age, and it recommends that the Government should reconsider the Tomlinson proposals for a broader diploma-based system for 14-19 year old students based on the International Baccalaureate. This would ensure that students receive a more rounded education and are not made to over-specialise before they are able to see the merits of studying science and mathematics. Concerns are also raised about the shortage of science teachers, particularly specialist physics and chemistry teachers, the quality of careers advice in schools, and the importance of practical science in schools.

Download or read book Spare Parts written by Joshua Davis and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four undocumented Mexican American students, two great teachers, one robot-building contest . . . and a major motion picture In 2004, four Latino teenagers arrived at the Marine Advanced Technology Education Robotics Competition at the University of California, Santa Barbara. They were born in Mexico but raised in Phoenix, Arizona, where they attended an underfunded public high school. No one had ever suggested to Oscar, Cristian, Luis, or Lorenzo that they might amount to much—but two inspiring science teachers had convinced these impoverished, undocumented kids from the desert who had never even seen the ocean that they should try to build an underwater robot. And build a robot they did. Their robot wasn't pretty, especially compared to those of the competition. They were going up against some of the best collegiate engineers in the country, including a team from MIT backed by a $10,000 grant from ExxonMobil. The Phoenix teenagers had scraped together less than $1,000 and built their robot out of scavenged parts. This was never a level competition—and yet, against all odds . . . they won! But this is just the beginning for these four, whose story—which became a key inspiration to the DREAMers movement—will go on to include first-generation college graduations, deportation, bean-picking in Mexico, and service in Afghanistan. Joshua Davis's Spare Parts is a story about overcoming insurmountable odds and four young men who proved they were among the most patriotic and talented Americans in this country—even as the country tried to kick them out.
Download or read book Adlerian Counseling Theory and Practice written by William Lyman Camp FACAPP and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-17 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adlerian approach to counseling is a highly structured approach. Adlerians operate according to a set of principles and procedures that make this form of counseling different from many other forms of counseling. In most other forms, a counselor sees a client and they talk, and they talk, and they talk. Adlerians try not to waste a moment. Every word said and everything done is designed according to plan. In the pages of this book, the writer will present techniques that have been used successfully, with the suggestion that the reader, too, may find real success in their use. Chapter 1 and 2 consists of Adlerian child psychology concepts and ideas with information drawn from lectures, interviews, writings, and conversations with Rudolf Dreikurs, MD, as well as ideas from other Adlerian authors, compiled, summarized, edited, updated, annotated, and supplemented for the twenty-first century. Chapters 3 and 4 are essentially the words of Dr. Dreikurs, compiled and edited from tapes, excerpts from his public conversations, lectures, and radio and television presentations—all organized and presented with his suggestions for their organization and presentation. Much of this material is presented primarily as a casebook, with explanations included and transcripts of cases conducted by Dr. Dreikurs. It is presented with his permission and appropriate confidentiality, including name changes, etc. Interspersed are comments, observations, and brief explanations presented for clarification.

Cross known as Kim lives in Danville Virginia. She was born in the spring of April on the 8th day in 1976. Kim began creative writing in 2015. Calm Night was her stress reliever after a long work night and a quick workout at the gym. When Kim arrived home she would type. The initial writing of Calm Night was to be a short story. But with each new day Kim fell in love with Calm Night referring to the writing as her first born. Kim would stay awake inside her tiny studio apartment and type until her eyes became heavy with sleep. But that is when Kim’s eclectic imagination would explode. She dreamed of Calm Night when she slept. The dreams are now chapters in the book. Each character was brought to life with what Kim’s idea of wholeness, ability and concord is. Kim’s political views, opinions of society and her fondest passions were her muse to write Calm Night. The book cover is Kim’s work of art. She named the painting Sisters because both beings are identical but with different dedications toward the same objective. Kim finished the painting of Sisters in the winter of February on the 1st day of 2015. A few months after in the spring of May on the 15th day Kim began the writing of Calm Night. In the autumn of October on the 28th day in 2019 Kim completed Calm Night. She is happy to share Calm Night with you. From Kim’s imagination to your enjoyment.
Download or read book Coming to Narrative written by Arthur P Bochner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting on a 50 year university career, Distinguished Professor Arthur Bochner, former President of the National Communication Association, discloses a lived history, both academic and personal, that has paralleled many of the paradigm shifts in the human sciences inspired by the turn toward narrative. He shows how the human sciences—especially in his own areas of interpersonal, family, and communication theory—have evolved from sciences directed toward prediction and control to interpretive ones focused on the search for meaning through qualitative, narrative, and ethnographic modes of inquiry. He outlines the theoretical contributions of such luminaries as Bateson, Laing, Goffman, Henry, Gergen, and Richardson in this transformation. Using diverse forms of narration, Bochner seamlessly layers theory and story, interweaving his professional and personal life with the social and historical contexts in which they developed.
