Science Education

Contemporary Concerns and Pedagogical Practices

About this book

The book dwells on the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required to successfully execute classroom instruction for easy science learning. This engaging textbook on the pedagogy of science introduces teacher trainees to the various methods, approaches, and models of teaching science and applying them in their teaching practice.

The book focuses on the development of scientific knowledge through a clear understanding of the nature of science and a discussion on all the various pedagogical shifts in science teaching. Written in the light of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCFSE) 2023, curriculum prescribed by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) and the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), this book is an ideal companion not only for teacher trainees but also for in-service teachers and researchers in related fields.

The book will be useful to students, pre-service teachers, and teacher educators. It will also be of much value to in-service teachers, practitioners in different settings, policy makers, curriculum designers, and researchers in the field of science education.
