Teaching Constructivist Science, K-8
This reader-friendly text is solidly grounded on the three legged stool of constructivist theory, science content standards and practical applications. In this book for both experienced and novice teachers of elementary and middle school science, the authors connect constructivist compatible theory with practical teaching strategies and activities. Special features include original activities, a rich resource list for the constructivist science teacher, as well as strategies for working with special education students and English language learners (ELLs) in science. Classic and new ideas for student activities include "Big Science" activities such as tissue paper hot air balloons, cardboard boats and catenary arch projects developed by Edward Ebert. Discussion questions for teacher study groups close each chapter.
Lord Salisbury's World
Lord Salisbury (1830–1903) is now a subject of intense historical attention. This important study moves away from conventional biography and presents an original portrait of the mental world inhabited by late Victorian Conservatives at the time when their world-view was coming under severe strain. At the centre of the picture is the 3rd Marquess of Salisbury, but Lord Salisbury's World does not simply tell the story of his life and politics. Instead, it asks sensitive questions about how the political, intellectual and religious environments of the late Victorian period seemed to one of its sharpest intellects, and it situates Salisbury and his immediate entourage in a wide landscape of relationships, perceptions and problems. Professor Bentley takes the reader into Conservative assumptions about time and space, property and society, religion and the state, and the past and the future - the very language in which they expressed themselves.
The Educator's Field Guide
Targeted for pre-service and in-service teachers, this book is a guide to "what to do and how to do it in a very practical sense." It addresses four essential topics: organizing and planning for instruction, classroom management, instructional techniques, and assessment. Each of the areas is addressed in a user-friendly, resource-style format, and includes activities and templates to provide readers with a framework for developing their own styles. Coverage of the four main topics is arranged in sub-topics that follow a five-step format of conceptualization, content, planning, implementation, and reflection.

The Manual of Museum Learning
This Manual is a practical guide to creating successful learning experiences in museums and related institutions such as public galleries, exhibition centers, science centers, zoos, botanical gardens, aquaria, and planetaria. Based on an understanding of museum learning as an experience that occurs within a personal, social, and physical context, it explores why, for whom, and how these contexts can be orchestrated in museum galleries with optimal results.
Project-Based Writing in Science
Turn your students into scientists who use their knowledge and creativity to solve real-world problems. Each lesson features a step-by-step guide; a summary of recent research; and handouts that are classroom-ready. Learn about the three levels of writing, from a Level 1 quickwrite to a formal, multi-part, Level 3 research paper. Each writing assignment—narrative, persuasive, and informative—includes a detailed rubric that makes grading easy. Students collaborate to contain an outbreak of avian flu, lead a group of people trying to survive under harsh conditions, battle drought in a densely-populated city in the American southwest, research the behavior of animals in the local region, and calculate their own speed, velocity, and momentum. Engaging and demanding, Project-Based Writing in Science helps students to understand and improve the world.
Contemporary Curriculum Discourses
JCT was the most important journal of curriculum studies during the field's paradigm shift in the 1970s. Its editors sponsored a yearly conference, which also supported the intellectual breakthrough that was the reconceptualization of American curriculum studies. This collection brings together the best of JCT articles, plus key documentary material of importance to scholars and students alike. Undergraduate and graduate students in curriculum, instruction, and foundations would find this book useful and insightful.

Cultural Studies and Environmentalism
As the first book to explore the confluence of three emerging yet critical fields of study, this work sets an exacting standard. The editors’ aim was to produce the most authoritative guide for ecojustice, place-based education, and indigenous knowledge in education. Aimed at a wide audience that includes, but is not restricted to, science educators and policymakers, Cultural Studies and Environmentalism starts from the premise that schooling is a small part of the larger educational domain in which we live and learn. Informed by this overarching notion, the book opens up ways in which home-grown talents, narratives, and knowledge can be developed, and eco-region awareness and global relat...
