Develop new ways of teaching science so that each student wants to know. Learn to make your teaching more relevant for your culturally and racially diverse classroom. This concise guide is designed to provide you - as a K-12 science teacher or curriculum developer - with the information you need to establish more effective, more engrossing ways of teaching science to your students. You'll learn how to use curriculum content to help grab students' attention, develop strategies that make your teaching more effective, reach students who have culturally different learning styles, design class activities that appeal to your diverse student population, and make science about discovering and learning and doing - not memorizing dry facts. Encourage all your students to explore the possibilities that science presents for learning (and for earning), and help them see what science education can actually mean to them. Prepare your students for a world transformed by science - give them a strong foundation of knowledge on which they can build.
