Gain a clear understanding of what effective teachers doand how
successful students learn Over the past 20 years, a greater
concentration on research aimed at both teaching and learning has
revealed that chalk and talk teaching, copying notes, and cookbook
practical lessons offer little challenge to students. Teaching in
the Sciences: Learner-Centered Approaches steers the learning
process away from traditional modes of instruction to a more
student-centered, activity-based curriculum that makes science
relevant, engaging, and interesting. This innovative book helps
educators bring out the best in their studentsand themselvesby
identifying and meeting students' needs and providing environments
that encourage active, strategic learning. Helpful tables and
figures make complex information easy to access and understand.
Rather than focusing on teaching methods that merely deal in the
content of life science, Teaching in the Sciences: Learner-Centered
Approaches promotes a deep learning designed to develop critical
and skilled learners. This collection of frank and thoughtful
empirically based papers places greater emphasis on learning
environments and social interaction patterns, assessment processes,
and perceptions of students and teachers in a range of learning and
teaching settings in the life sciences. The book presents
strategies for mentoring and assessing students, assessments of
learning outcomes, innovative approaches to curriculum design,
constructivist approaches to teaching science, how to use
technology to support learning, and practical examples of
learner-centered teaching that mark important steps on a journey to
transform the learning process. Teaching in the Sciences:
Learner-Centered Approaches examines: using broadband
videoconferencing for distance learning in tertiary science

The larger text and carefully controlled language level make the
pages more accessible for lower achievers. More regular in-text
questions and the end-of-spread questions build up pupils'
knowledge - and confidence - throughout the lesson. Red and Green
books have identical pagination, so you can use them side by side
in a mixed-ability class.
Elements Top TrumpsTM is an entertaining, fast-paced chemistry card
game. With eye-catching imagery and fascinating facts about the
elements, it's a great way to have fun and learn about the
elements. Recommended for children aged 7-14, the game can be
played by two or more players. Each of the 30 cards represents an
element. Players compare numerical properties of the elements
(melting point, density, price, discovery date and the size of the
atom) and choose the category they think will win. Elements Top
Trumps is created by the Royal Society of Chemistry in partnership
with Winning Moves Ltd, the makers of Top TrumpsTM. This product is
also available in packs of six.

Maximizing the potential of RNA interference in functional genomics
- as well as in the development of therapeutics - continues to be
at the forefront of biomedical research. Unlike journal articles,
Gene Silencing by RNA Interference: Technology and Application
combines essential background to the RNAi field with practical
techniques designed by renowned researchers to provide the most
diverse and in-depth examination of the subject yet. This book
describes methods and protocols for gene silencing and RNA
interference. Each chapter provides necessary background to the
subject and then gives detailed methods in easy-to-follow steps,
along with troubleshooting hints and tips. Following a general and
historical introduction, chapters two through eight focus on
technical details of the various methods of siRNA design, chemical
and enzymatic production, plasmid- and virus-mediated intracellular
expression, and other RNAi tools. Chapter nine discusses the
exogenous delivery of siRNAs into cells, and the final chapters of
the book detail the application of RNAi to dissect gene function in
a number of biological systems, including cell-free systems,
cultured cells, and whole organisms. From the design and production
of RNAi tools to their applications, Gene Silencing by RNA
Interference: Technology and Application is the first to present
the entire spectrum of activity, design, production, and delivery
of RNAi reagents, providing a welcome guide for both academic and
commercial use.
