Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student achievement in science is becoming a major problem among students at all grade levels. In fact, the most recent U.S. science report card exposed that only 16 out of the 50 states have made small academic gains in science. What is more, students in both private and public schools are doing rather poorly in science at the elementary level. Studies have attributed these poor science performance to the use of traditional teaching methods, instead of the constructivists approach to teaching science causing a dramatic fall in student performance, while the science achievement gap increases between the United States and its rival countries. Research clearly indicates that constructivists approach leads to more successful outcomes, increasing student engagement, critical thinking skills, and even their overall desire to learn. The suggested curriculum project examines suggests the effectiveness of the constructivist approach to teaching science to students. It advances the argument of how the constructivist approach is more engaging, meets the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), California Common Core Standards and significantly increases students critically thinking skills. The sole objective for the curriculum proposal is to inspire an approach to learning science in a manner that is truly effective and more meaningful for students so they can make academic advances in science.
Book Synopsis The Content Of Science: A Constructivist Approach To Its Teaching And learning by : Peter J. Fensham
Download or read book The Content Of Science: A Constructivist Approach To Its Teaching And learning written by Peter J. Fensham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1994. Leading scholars in science education from eight countries on four continents and ex-pert practising science teachers (primary and secondary) wrote about the teaching and learning of particular science content or skills, and hence how different science content requires different sorts of teaching and learning. Having shared the papers, they then met to discuss them and subsequently revised them. The result is a coherent set of chapters that share valuable insights about the teaching and learning of science. Some chapters consider the detail of specific topics (e.g. floating and sinking, soil and chemical change), some describe innovative procedures, others provide powerful theory. Together they provide a comprehensive analysis of constructivist learning and teaching implications.

Book Synopsis Education Is Upside-Down by : Eric Kalenze
Download or read book Education Is Upside-Down written by Eric Kalenze and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-10-08 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education Is Upside Down cuts through adjustments being made at technical levels of educational practice and accountability, challenging ideals and philosophies that have powered American Education for most of the last century. This book explains how and why long-standing approaches generate flawed instructional practices, flawed systemic reform efforts, and a fundamental misalignment between the educational institution and the society it is missioned to serve. Education Is Upside Down urges readers wishing to improve American Education to more carefully consider the institution’s central mission, challenge long-accepted truths of practice, and question current reform efforts and actions. In full, Education Is Upside Down resists the practitioner-vs.-reformer blame game, seeking ultimately to carefully untangle—not tighten by yanking on any single strand—the long-complicated knot of American Education.

Book Synopsis In Search of Understanding by : Jacqueline G. Brooks
Download or read book In Search of Understanding written by Jacqueline G. Brooks and published by ASCD. This book was released on 1999-07-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The activities that transpire within the classroom either help or hinder students' learning. Any meaningful discussion of educational renewal, therefore, must focus explicitly and directly on the classroom, and on the teaching and learning that occur within it. This book presents a case for the development of classrooms in which students are encouraged to construct deep understandings of important concepts. Jacqueline Grennon Brooks and Martin Brooks present a new set of images for educational settings, images that emerge from student engagement, interaction, reflection, and construction. They have considerable experience in creating constructivist educational settings and conducting research on those settings. Authentic examples are provided throughout the book, as are suggestions for administrators, teachers, and policymakers. For the new edition of their popular book, the authors have written an introduction that places their work in today's educational renewal setting. Today, they urge, the case for constructivist classrooms is much stronger and the need more critical. Note: This product listing is for the Adobe Acrobat (PDF) version of the book.

This book was released on 2019-06-08 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Philosophy - Theoretical (Realisation, Science, Logic, Language), grade: 10.0/10.0, University of Macedonia, language: English, abstract: The main aim of this essay is to examine the impact of constructivism on adult education by implementing some of the constructivist approaches to e-learning. We observe in recent years that constructivist philosophy has a great impact on adult education. Constructivism as a philosophical stream draws its content from various theories. His main point is that knowledge is directly related to construct. Individuals, depending on their emphasis on external reality, form a personal view, focusing, of course, on the importance of social processes in the production of knowledge. On the other hand, we observe the adoption of a new way of learning, e-learning, that takes place in a different environment, the distance environment and not in the traditional class environment. Of course, it is a fact that in the context of e-learning, adult educators have to use some special techniques and adopt different approaches in order to successfully pass their teaching work. In particular, each adult learner has his own particular needs and experiences, which the trainer has to recognize and take into account in the design of his teaching. The philosophical and methodological changes that the trainer will adopt will therefore significantly affect his teaching.
Book Synopsis Constructivism and the Technology of Instruction by : Thomas M. Duffy
Download or read book Constructivism and the Technology of Instruction written by Thomas M. Duffy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the implications of constructivism for instructional design practices, and more importantly, it is about a dialogue between instructional developers and learning theorists. Working with colleagues in each discipline, the editors were amazed to find a general lack of familiarity with each others' work. From an instructional design perspective, it seems that the practice of instructional design must be based on some conception of how people learn and what it means to learn. From a learning theory perspective, it seems obvious that the value of learning theory rests in the ability to predict the impact of alternative learning environments or instructional practices on what is learned. Thus the interchange of ideas between these disciplines is essential. As a consequence of both the information rich environment and the technological capability, business is seen moving away from a fixed curriculum and toward providing information and instruction when it is needed. These changes bring about a window of opportunity establishing a dialogue that will provide for a richer understanding of learning and the instructional environment required to achieve that learning. The editors hope that this book is the beginning of the conversation and that it will serve to spur continued conversation between those involved in learning theory and those involved in the design of instruction.

Book excerpt: Unique in offering a multidisciplinary perspective on key issues of alternative epistemologies in education, this collection includes contributions from scholars in family therapy, epistemology, and mathematics, science, and language education. These respected researchers were brought together to develop the theme of constructivism as it applies to many diversified fields. This book examines key distinctions of various constructivist epistemologies, comparing and contrasting the various paradigms. Each section provides both keynote positions on a particular alternative paradigm as well as critical comments by respondents regarding that position. Several chapters also present a synthesis of the alternative epistemological perspectives.
