Effective teaching and learning in science is vital to our economic future and to our ability to perform effectively as citizens in a democratic society, but all too often, science education in the schools is not as effective as it might be. Science Strategies for Students With Gifts and Talents examines some common pitfalls in how we teach science in school and then suggests ways teachers can improve their practice in this area. Specific sections cover elementary, middle, and high school science instruction, with a focus on how teachers can be effective in meeting the needs of the academically advanced and high-ability learners in their classroom at each of these levels.
The Practical Strategies Series in Gifted Education offers a time-saving introduction to the most important issues in gifted and talented education. Filled with practical information and advice, these books are ideal for classroom teachers, preservice teachers, and graduate students.
