In this ground-breaking book science education is explored as a
learning continuum across all years of schooling from Foundation to
Year 12. The expert authors, members of Monash University's Science
Education Research Group, seek to build pedagogical and content
expertise by providing both a level of support and challenge for
all teachers based on current research and best practice. The text
considers key issues including: what the learner brings to the
science classroom; what primary and secondary teachers can learn
from each other; the constructivist perspective and its value in
learning science; context-based science education; the structure of
the Australian curriculum and science education policy; teacher
identity; the nature of scientific knowledge; principles of
assessment and understanding the role of ICT in science teaching
and learning. Featuring case studies and practical examples in each
chapter, this book provides pre-service teachers with the
understanding and tools to ensure their students are engaged and
inspired in science education throughout their school years.
