Sinopsis
`Addressing students′ misconceptions is a critical part of science teaching. But how does one uncover and teach to these misconceptions? A good place to start is Inquire Within, which presents many valuable strategies for meeting this challenge′- National Science Teachers Association, Washington
The author teaches a method of learning in science that is inquiry-based and that involves a process of asking questions, exploring, and making the connections that lead to understanding and discovery. As students involve themselves in the process of inquiry, they learn how to ask the kind of questions that determine the answers they need to help solve their scientific problems.
The reader is given simple step-by-step lessons on how to apply this method of learning to easy scientific experiments, and then the author shows how to evaluate the students′ progress with monitoring charts, rubrics and other assessment tools. By using this method of inquiry, students hone their decision- making skills and find empowerment in applying these skills to become better students.
