Review:
'This handbook presents a comprehensive introduction to the process and practice of teaching and learning science. This book is written in an accesible way, with the layout varied by boxed "tasks".' -Science Education Newsletter
'My first reaction on starting to read this book was "I wish I'd had this book when I started teaching". It is immensely practical but at the same time, challenges and encourages the student teacher to think about what they are doing and why.' - Perspectives in Partnership
