Problem-Based Learning in the Life Science Classroom, K-12

Problem-Based Learning in the Life Science Classroom, K-12

This informative title details how to engage students with exercises that prompt K–12 learners to immerse themselves in analyzing problems, asking questions, posing hypotheses, finding needed information, and developing proposed solutions. Thus students participate in real-world, thought-provoking science. In addition to complete lesson plans that support Next Generation Science Standards, the book offers extensive examples, instructions, and tips. The lessons cover four categories: life cycles, ecology, genetics, and cellular metabolism. The authors used the scenarios they employed in their own science teaching, so you can be confdent that the problems and the approach are teacher-tested and approved.
