AED 203 CheckPoint: Approaches to Teaching Science
In Curriculum and Instructional Methods for the Elementary and Middle School, 6th ed. (2006), J. K. Lemlech argues that “how students learn science is just as important as what they learn. In the teaching of science, a major objective is to develop students’ problem-solving capabilities. To do this, teachers must structure learning experiences to provide students with opportunities to participate in inquiry processes” (p. 269).
