5.0 out of 5 stars A book to help drag science teaching from the 19th Century!, July 14, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Teaching Science for Understanding: A Human Constructivist View (Educational Psychology) (Hardcover)
An excellent book laying out the authors'view of teaching and learning - The Human Constructivist view. If you are a science teacher and feel that there is something missing in your classrooms, read this book. If you are disenchanted with a prescriptive curriculum that bores you and your students, read this book. If you want to find out how to get into your students' minds (using tools such as concept maps), read this book. I have found this book to be full of interesting and useful ideas that can act as a spark to ignite a period of critical reflection. If science teaching is to drag itself away from a 19th Century perspective that bores the pants off our students, it is thinkers such as Mintzes, Wandersee and Novak that will light the path.
