Description
For courses in Elementary Science Methods.
Organized around the National Science Education Standards, this text takes a constructivist approach to teaching science methods that focuses on first-hand experience. It encourages students to become actively involved as they process information they will later transfer to their own elementary and middle school classrooms. Essentially, readers will learn to process information the same way their science students do.
