Description
Help Your Students Become the Scientists of the Future with Practical Strategies for Science Teaching. Making Every Science Lesson Count offers effective advice to science teachers looking to improve their practice. Shaun Allison combines timeless wisdom from experienced educators with evidence from cognitive science to provide six pedagogical principles: challenge, explanation, modelling, practice, feedback and questioning. This book provides simple, realistic strategies to make abstract ideas more concrete and practical demonstrations more meaningful. By challenging common myths in science teaching, such as the idea that students can make huge progress in a single lesson, Shaun Allison advocates an approach of artful repetition and consolidation. The book is designed for new and experienced teachers alike, with each chapter concluding in questions to inspire reflective thought and help you relate the content to your classroom practice.
