When it comes to science, many of today's children experience
narrow and impoverished learning opportunities, which, as professor
Judah Schwartz writes in the preface to this book, lead ultimately
to a mere caricature of science. As a curative to this prevalent
and unfortunate situation, this well-written and thought-provoking
book presents the state of the art in science education for
kindergarten and primary schools. It begins with a thorough
theoretical discussion on why it is incumbent on the science
educator to teach science already at first stages of childhood. It
goes on to analyze and synthesize a broad range of educational
approaches and themes such as: inquiry-based teaching; learning
through authentic problems; scaffolding; situated learning;
learning through projects; non-verbal knowledge; and informal
learning.
