Methods for teaching science as inquiry
"Research tells us that an inquiry approach to science teaching motivates and engages every type of student, helping them understand not only science's relevance to their lives but also the nature of science itself. But is there a manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry into their science classrooms? Methods For Teaching Science As Inquiry scaffolds concepts and illustrates instructional models to help readers understand the inquiry approach to teaching, particularly highlighting the 5-E model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate), a learning cycle model of instruction that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards." -- from cover
