β¦ Synopsis
Practical work is an essential feature of secondary science education. However, questions have been raised by some science educators about its effectiveness as a teaching and learning strategy. Whilst such an approach is generally effective in getting pupils to do things with objects and materials, it is seen as relatively ineffective in developing their conceptual understanding of the associated scientific ideas and concepts. Ian Abrahams argues that this is because it is practiced as a βhands-on', rather than βminds-on' activity.
Abrahams draws together theory and practice on effective teaching and learning in practical work in science - covering biology, chemistry and physics. He provides clear guidance to ensure that students are encouraged and supported to be βminds-on' as well as a 'hands-on' so that they can make the most of this learning experience.
An invaluable text for inspiringΒ aspiring andΒ experienced secondary science professionals,Β especially for those on M-level secondary science PGCE programmes.
