Preparing for the
scientific and technological world
Planning for success in the classroom is a necessary component of teaching.
Both the "way we teach" and the "what we teach" make a difference in student
learning.
Successful teaching is accomplished when students enjoy your class, are
able to apply concepts, develop a positive attitude towards the scientific
process, become more able to make informed decisions involving science
and technological issues, and they recommend your class to other students.
There are a variety of instructional strategies that can help achieve class
success in science literacy as stated in the National
Science Education Standards and state curriculum frameworks.
In addition to the instructional strategies mentioned above, there are
several models and lesson plan strategies that I use in curriculum design
and in making lesson plans
