Reviews

The authors offer a solid introduction to constructivist learning approaches and assessment in science classrooms. Each succinct chapter is well scaffolded, clear in intent, and informative. Here is a useful book for both new and more experienced teachers working in traditional classroom environments. -British Journal of Educational Technology The text is informative, yet simple to read and models the type of teaching the authors support - active, engaging, and constructivist. This practical resource - which includes guidelines for developing assessments and becoming more reflective in teaching practice - will carefully guide anyone who is interested in developing an active learning environment in his or her science (and non-science) classroom. -Education Review An invaluable resource for anyone wishing to try active learning methods....This book brings together a lot of very recent ideas about learning and the constructivist approach in a practical 'how-to' guide for 'helping the learner to learn.' It provides everything one needs to put this approach into action in a science classroom, including assessment, reflective practice, and establishing a community of active learning practitioners....This book is very timely and exactly what many of us who teach science need. -Louis H. Pignolet University of Minnesota
