Produktbeschreibung
Encompassing all areas of science education, this comprehensive reference covers the range of methodologies, perspectives, foci, and cultures of this field of inquiry. Features contributions from leading researchers from around the globe.
The Encyclopedia of Science Education provides a comprehensive international reference work covering the range of methodologies, perspectives, foci, and cultures of this field of inquiry, and to do so via contributions from leading researchers from around the globe. Because of the frequent ways in which scholarship in science education has led to developments in other curriculum areas, the encyclopedia has significance beyond the field of science education.

The Encyclopedia of Science Education is aimed at graduate students, researchers, developers in science education and science education research. The topics to be covered encompass all areas of science education and it includes biographical entries on science educators, as well as educators whose work has had an impact on science education as a research field.

Rezensionen
"Encyclopedia of Science Education offers an authoritative set of shorter essays suitable for introducing and explaining myriad topics to a wider range of readers. By its nature, the Encyclopedia provides on an order of magnitude more articles than found in a handbook and is therefore likely to meet the needs of those working in science education when they are looking for a quick briefing on key ideas about some theme or other." (Keith S. Taber, Teacher Development, Vol. 21 (2), July, 2016)
