′I believe the experiments in this text can be well integrated into any science education course and help create an environment of exploration." - Willis Walter, Jr., Florida AM University ′This textbook should be a companion of all elementary and middle school pre-service and in-service teachers who are interested in educating students of different abilities and backgrounds′ - Benjamin C. Ngwudike, Jackson State University ′Science is almost always thought of as a solitary content area practiced by lone practitioners in isolated laboratories. The reality is that science is highly dependent upon culture and history. This textbook meaningfully presents these relationships in a fashion accessible to college level teacher candidates′ - Claudia A. Balach, Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania Teaching Science in Elementary and Middle School: A Cognitive and Cultural Approach is an introductory science curriculum and methods textbook for pre-service teachers in primary and middle schools. The primary purpose of the book is to provide an introduction to the teaching of science with an emphasis on guiding the pre-service teacher toward: - conceptual understanding of core standards-based science content from the four major scientific disciplines - application of scientific methods and processes of inquiry to the learning of these science concepts - development of scientific language that is both expressive and constitutive in the formation of scientific reasoning - the ability to guide learners through numerous core scientific experiments that help to illuminate items 1-3 - evaluation of social and cultural factors that shape and influence both science and science education - analysis of the local context in which science must be understood (as well as the global context) - synthesis of science as interrelated with other aspects of the world and how this idea can be taught to students through integrated and thematic instruction. The approach throughout is clear and practical, and is designed to foster reflective teaching rooted in research and theory. Teaching Science in Elementary and Middle School: A Cognitive and Cultural Approach is a synthesis of current knowledge in science education, cognition and culture. The authors provide a text that fosters the development of teachers who feel prepared to engage their students in rich science learning experiences.

Teaching Science in Elementary and Middle School offers in-depth information about the fundamental features of project-based science and strategies for implementing the approach. In project-based science classrooms students investigate, use technology, develop artifacts, collaborate, and make products to show what they have learned. Paralleling what scientists do, project-based science represents the essence of inquiry and the nature of science. Because project-based science is a method aligned with what is known about how to help all children learn science, it not only helps students learn science more thoroughly and deeply, it also helps them experience the joy of doing science. Project-based science embodies the principles in A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards. Blending principles of learning and motivation with practical teaching ideas, this text shows how project-based learning is related to ideas in the Framework and provides concrete strategies for meeting its goals. Features include long-term, interdisciplinary, student-centered lessons; scenarios; learning activities, and "Connecting to Framework for K–12 Science Education" textboxes. More concise than previous editions, the Fourth Edition offers a wealth of supplementary material on a new Companion Website, including many videos showing a teacher and class in a project environment.

The need for a scientifically literate population that can apply scientific ideas to solve real world problems in the 21st century has never been greater. Yet a growing disconnect exists between this need and the educational capacity to prepare them. The mission of Teaching Science in Elementary and Middle School: A Project-Based Approach, 3e is to help answer this need. Like its predecessors, this new edition is organized around the guiding principles of problem-based learning: long-term, interdisciplinary, student-centered lessons that are relevant to real-world issues and activities. This teaching approach engages all young learners--regardless of culture, race, or gender--in exploring important and meaningful questions through a process of investigation and collaboration. Throughout this dynamic process, students ask questions, make predictions, design investigations, collect and analyze data, make products, and share ideas. Changes in this new edition include the following... Stronger, more explicit connections between PBS, inquiry teaching and the National Science Education Standards (NSES). The theme of establishing the relevance of science to students' lives has been expanded. It now includes attention to discrepant events, anchoring events, and experiencing phenomena in addition to its previous focus on driving questions. To help children understand that science is about explaining phenomena, a new chapter, Making Sense of Data, now follows the one on Designing and Carrying Out Investigations. It contains a section on helping children create evidence-based scientific explanations. A new section on the challenges of special needs and gifted students. The discussion of technology in science teaching have been expanded to include such new devices as wireless handhelds, cameras, cell phones, wikis and ipods. The introductory scenarios have been reworked to insure greater relevance to elementary science teaching. An accompanying Web site will offer test items and strategies to support students in problem-solving and in planning and carrying-out investigations. This text is appropriate for anyone interested in teaching elementary or middle school science using an inquiry-oriented, problem-based framework.
