Publisher's Synopsis

With the advent of the national curriculum the teaching of chemistry is now a central component of the science education of children up to the age of 16 years. This book consists of a series of specially commissioned articles that set out many of the implications of chemistry for all within the context of broad and balanced science syllabuses up to GCSE level. Articles range from a consideration of starting points in syllabus construction, alternative teaching and learning strategies, the role of language in the teaching of chemistry, and the assessment and evaluation of learning outcomes. The book concludes with a survey of the important contribution chemistry can make to improving equal educational opportunities. Features include: Open University set book, discusses the practical effects of the recent introduction of the national curriculum in science, highlights and references recent educational developments, provides examples of alternative strategies for coping with these developments, theoretical ideas are linked to good classroom practice, and is written in an informal and accessible style.
