Literacy in Science: Revised edition - Book 1 Biology

Engaging activities to get the most from biology texts

Not all science teaching leads to scientifically literate students - students who can apply their knowledge to make sense of their own lives and make a difference in the world around them. But when teaching explicitly incorporates scientific literacy, it produces motivated students with a deep understanding of science concepts.

This revised edition, which includes a number of updated activities and websites, shows just how easy it can be to make scientific literacy activities a regular, engaging part of your science programme - and to reap the rewards. Focusing on biology, the materials have been designed for customising: you can choose the set of activities on the concept relevant to your current focus and use it to either consolidate learning or really delve into the concept and its real-life implications.
