Game of Science Education, The, MyLabSchool Edition - Jeffrey Weld

An accessible and authoritative approach to effective science teaching, this text is the work of 16 contributors who each employ a single metaphor that will resonate with readers - that science education can and should be considered an exciting game. With #&147;Windows Into the Classroom" personal accounts and #&147;The Game in Action" vignettes students are provided with practical applications throughout the book. Many contributors to this book were involved in the development and draft review of the National Science Education Standards, and therefore fully appreciate the importance of overtly linking research-based commentary and recommendations to the Standards. As a result, the entire work is steeped in a current research foundation tied closely to the National Science Education Standards.
