Ambitious Science Teaching outlines a powerful framework for
science teaching to ensure that instruction is rigorous and
equitable for students from all backgrounds. The practices
presented in the book are being used in schools and districts that
seek to improve science teaching at scale, and a wide range of
science subjects and grade levels are represented. The book is
organized around four sets of core teaching practices: planning for
engagement with big ideas; eliciting student thinking; supporting
changes in students’ thinking; and drawing together
evidence-based explanations. Discussion of each practice includes
tools and routines that teachers can use to support students’
participation, transcripts of actual studentteacher dialogue and
descriptions of teachers’ thinking as it unfolds, and examples of
student work. The book also provides explicit guidance for
“opportunity to learn” strategies that can help scaffold the
participation of diverse students. Since the success of these
practices depends so heavily on discourse among students, Ambitious
Science Teaching includes chapters on productive classroom talk.
Science-specific skills such as modeling and scientific argument
are also covered. Drawing on the emerging research on core teaching
practices and their extensive work with preservice and in-service
teachers, Ambitious Science Teaching presents a coherent and
aligned set of resources for educators striving to meet the
considerable challenges that have been set for them.
