Front Page Science: Engaging Teens in Science Literacy

Understanding how the latest science affects real people - patients, consumers, voters, and taxpayers - is at the heart of science literacy. Like citizen journalists, high school students can appreciate science literacy with the “learn by doing” methodology in this innovative book. Front Page Science uses science journalism techniques to help students become informed members of, and contributors to, a scientifically literate community. Three key sections include: background information and a rationale for using science journalism techniques; concrete advice about how to teach science literacy in this framework - from helping students find story angles to teaching search strategies; and interview techniques needed to compose a news story. From the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA).
