Once teachers understand this problem, they will look at those ideas and plan them into the curriculum. But in doing so, they need help to:
} recognise what the problems are
} enhance their own understanding of them
} think how best to teach for understanding.
The authors present a range of resources so that when teachers see `fair test′ or `reliability′ in The National Curriculum, they can look it up and develop their own understanding of how evidence is collected, analyzed and evaluated.
It is essential to be able to be critical of scientific evidence. The authors clearly set out the principles of investigation so that the reader will be confident in questioning the experts, making an informed choice or arriving at in informed opinion. The book is intended for a wide range of readers including those who want to:
} collect their own evidence
} be able to question and judge a wide range of science-based issues that we come across in the press or other media in everyday life
} teach others how to understand evidence.
This book has been developed from the authors′ work with first year undergraduates in a combined science course and in primary teacher training for science specialists. It is suitable for students training as primary science specialists, and also for ′A′ level and first-year undergraduates in science and science-related subjects.
