Enhancing Science Education (eBook, ePUB)

Exploring Knowledge Practices with Legitimation Code Theory
Redaktion: Blackie, Margaret A. L.; Mouton, Marnel; Adendorff, Hanelie

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Filling a gap where there has been a lack of theorised, accessible and discipline-sensitive publications to assist STEM educators, this book provides an introduction to Legitimation Code Theory and demonstrates how it can be used to improve teaching and learning in tertiary courses across the sciences.
