The author provides teachers in primary and junior secondary school with different evidence-based strategies they can use to teach inquiry science in their classrooms. The research and theoretical perspectives that underpin the strategies are discussed as are examples of how different ones areimplemented in science classrooms to affect student engagement and learning. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cp\u003ePresents processes involved in teaching inquiry-based science \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cp\u003eDiscusses importance of multi-modal representations in teaching inquiry based-science\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cp\u003eCovers ways to develop scientifically literacy\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cp\u003eUses the Structure of Observed learning Outcomes (SOLO) Taxonomy to assess student reasoning, problem-solving and learning\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cp\u003ePresents ways to promote scientific discourse, including teacher-student interactions, student-student interactions, and meta-cognitive thinking\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessor Robyn Gillies has worked extensively in both primary and secondary schools to embed STEM education initiatives into the science curriculum. This includes helping teachers to embed inquiry skills into the science curricula so they capture students' interests, provide opportunities for them to explore possible solutions to problems, explain phenomena, elaborate on potential outcomes, and evaluate findings. Professor Gillies is a Chief Investigator on the Science of Learning Research Centre (SLRC), her recommendations on how teachers can translate research into practice have been widely profiled in the international literature and on the website of the Smithsonian Science Education Center in Washington, DC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 122\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8.6 x 5.7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 11, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47221648359673,"sku":"9780367279233","price":129.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/UEh6SjNuRFdtbmxNLys5d3dHUVhKZz09.webp?v=1768195568","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/inquiry-based-science-education-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
