Science Teaching explains how history and philosophy of science
contributes to the resolution of persistent theoretical,
curricular, and pedagogical issues in science education. It shows
why it is essential for science teachers to know and appreciate the
history and philosophy of the subject they teach and how this
knowledge can enrich science instruction and enthuse students in
the subject. Through its historical perspective, the book reveals
to students, teachers, and researchers the foundations of
scientific knowledge and its connection to philosophy, metaphysics,
mathematics, and broader social influences including the European
Enlightenment, and develops detailed arguments about
constructivism, worldviews and science, multicultural science
education, inquiry teaching, values, and teacher education. Fully
updated and expanded, the 20th Anniversary Edition of this classic
text, featuring four new chapters-The Enlightenment Tradition;
Joseph Priestley and Photosynthesis; Science, Worldviews and
Education; and Nature of Science Research-and 1,300 references,
provides a solid foundation for teaching and learning in the field.
