Due to the recent global pandemic, educators of science and technology have had to pivot and adapt their delivery to create alternative virtual means of delivery. The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced a rapid change in teaching and learning in higher education. It is reshaping curriculum demands, the 21st century digital competence challenges, and learning technologies. These changes in education are likely to endure well past the COVID-19 pandemic, making it crucial for educators to consider teaching and learning under the perspectives of digital education and innovation. Advancing STEM Education and Innovation in a Time of Distance Learning highlights the contemporary trends and challenges in science, technology, mathematics, and engineering education. The chapters present findings and discussions of relevant research studies and theoretical frameworks for the provision of science, technology, engineering, and technical subjects. It not only presents successful practice examples from before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, but also provides useful information to assist educators in understanding the demands and challenges of digital education. Covering topics such as ethnically diverse students, foreign language learning, and mobile gamification, this premier reference source is an essential resource for educators and administrators of both K-12 and higher education, pre-service teachers, teacher educators, librarians, government officials, researchers, and academicians.

Provides banks of questions to address the requirements of the revised CCEA GCSE Biology specification. Covers both the full Biology course and the Biology component of Double Award Science. Questions are entirely new and are not from past papers. Suitable for use as classroom material, for use in homework and to assist with revision. Includes an indication of whether each question is appropriate for the foundation tier and/or higher tier. Students are not encouraged to write on the book itself, meaning that it can be used for several years. Full set of answers will be provided online. To encourage the students' work answers will not be printed in the rear of the book. The author, James Napier, is a highly reputable author and will be well known to teachers in Northern Ireland. One of three similar books that will also cover GCSE Chemistry and Physics.

When it comes to Grade 9-1 GCSE Biology exam prep, nothing beats good old-fashioned practice. This Exam Practice Workbook is bursting with realistic exam-style questions for the entire AQA course (Higher level), including coverage of Working Scientifically, AO3 practical skills and all the required practical activities. Every question is labelled with a grade, so it's easy for students to tailor their practice for their target grade or focus on the tough stuff! Detailed step-by-step answers are included at the back of the book. What's more, we've also put together some free ""What to Expect in the Exam"" information, available via a link in the book!

Imagine a world of innovative, communicative, collaborative and thoughtful problem-solvers. Now imagine a world where needs are met, problems are solved and sustainable decisions are made. Wouldn’t it be fabulous?

The STEM projects series provides opportunities for students to develop Science knowledge and skills, Design and technology skills, Mathematics skills and general capabilities while completing short or long-term projects. It encourages students to follow a consistent design process while completing the projects, including finding out information, planning and designing, creating, evaluating and communicating.

The projects allow students to work in small teams, using effective communication and collaboration skills, to plan, design, create and evaluate a thoughtful and innovative solution to a given task. When satisfied with their solutions, students showcase and discuss their design, explaining how science was used throughout the project.

The STEM projects series contains:

• two introductory cards explaining STEM education; time allocations for using the cards; and tips for planning, differentiating, teaching and assessing STEM projects, as well as classroom management and resource management ideas,
• one card with icons explaining each step of the design process, in child-friendly language,
• one card explaining the Science sub-strand; how the projects can be linked to Design and technology, Digital technology and Mathematics skills; and providing an overview of each project contained within the sub-strand, including the task and the specific materials required,
• six short-term projects and one long-term project for each sub-strand of Australian Curriculum: Science, and
• six copies of each project to allow for small-group use, 28 individual cards per box
