A compendium of ideas for teaching science to pupils aged 11-18

An easy guide to using all kinds of computer software in science teaching. Hundreds of creative ideas with science software, spreadsheets, sensors, database, word processing & graphics programs

The IT in Secondary Science Book looks at the many opportunities to use IT. This unique resource helps to integrate IT into your science work. You don't have to be an expert to use it: you browse through familiar science topics and find ideas for enhancing science using IT. Each idea is illustrated - for example by showing what to do - and why. Many are illustrated using pupil worksheets - such as finding out about mini-beasts or chemical elements using databases; analysing data from a class survey, finding out why we wrap hot food in foil or finding the most cost effective home insulation. An illustrated glossary, suppliers' addresses and a full index complete this comprehensive book for teaching science to children aged from 11 to 18.
