POST 723
Strategies for Teaching Science
No matter whether you are teaching school children, undergraduates, or colleagues, a few key strategies are always useful. After an introduction on teaching philosophy, five key strategies for teaching science will be discussed, all designed to help non-science majors learn about the nature of science and key scientific ideas. The ideas are easy to implement and apply across the science curriculum, although most of the examples will be drawn from astronomy and physics.
Note: This talk is updated and adapted from an article written
for Mercury, Nov/Dec 1999.
Dr. Bennett has developed many innovative strategies for teaching science to
non-science majors and has written leading textbooks in both astronomy and
astrobiology. As a result, he has spoken about strategies for teaching science
to faculty at many colleges and universities, including the University of
Kentucky, UCLA, San Diego State, Emory University, BYU-Idaho, SUNY-Stonybrook,
Rice University, Charleston College, Indiana/Purdue, and many more.
ps. Ok, you may have missed his talk, but you can check out his website below. In the mean time, I am trying to get a copy of his ppt for the talk.
