Description
In their professional dreams, chemistry teachers imagine eager and self-
sufficient students whose curiosity motivates their scientific
explorations. Joan Gallagher-Bolos and Dennis Smithenry have realized this
vision in their chemistry classrooms, and in Teaching Inquiry-Based
Chemistry, they demonstrate how you can make student-led inquiry happen in
yours. Teaching Inquiry-Based Chemistry retraces an entire year's
curriculum to show you how the authors weave constructivist theory into
every lesson without sacrificing content. You will discover how slowly
increasing the complexity of projects while gradually shifting the
responsibility for learning to class members builds success upon success
until students are ready to formulate and execute a three-week, end-of-year
project where they function as a fully independent scientific community.
Plus Teaching Inquiry-Based Chemistry is loaded with features that help you
implement student-centered teaching immediately, including: proven
instructional strategies examples of successful units from the authors' own
curricula graphic organizers that guide you through creating an inquiry-
driven classroom discussions of meeting NSES's inquiry standards through

Get ready to make your ideal classroom a reality and find a fresh way of
teaching the chemistry you know so well. Read Teaching Inquiry-Based
Chemistry and discover how helping your students capitalize on their innate
scientific curiosity will lead you to new levels of professional and
