The course will foster meaningful discussions about the nature and practice of school science. It will help practicing teachers to identify elements of inquiry and implement them in their science classroom. Throughout the semester, students will look at video clips of real-life classrooms, student interviews focusing on conceptual understanding and case studies of teachers trying to make changes in their teaching and you will reflect on the teaching strategies you see.Online discussion and course reading will spur further conversations around topics such as questioning, conceptual change, group work, materials management, and classroom culture.
