This book offers a comprehensive overview of the major areas of research and scholarship in science education and discusses the significance, reliability and implications for the practice of science teaching.
"The book has wide appeal in that the issues investigated - for example, the nature of science, practical work, the role of language, of technology and formative and summative assessment - are relevant and pertinent to science teachers'' work in all school systems."
Professor David F Treagust, Curtin University of Technology, Australia

This new edition of Good Practice in Science Teaching offers a comprehensive overview of the major areas of research and scholarship in science education.

Each chapter summarizes the research work and evidence in the field, and discusses its significance, reliability and implications for the practice of science teaching.

Thoroughly revised throughout, the new edition includes:
