Encouraging Girls in Math and Science
http://ies.ed.gov/ncee/wwc/publications/practiceguides/ Encouraging Girls in Math and Science The objective of this guide is to provide teachers with specific recommendations that can be carried out in the classroom without requiring systemic change. Other school personnel having direct contact with students, such as coaches, counselors, and principals, will also find the guide useful. |

Success in science
http://tinyurl.com/682lu9 Success in science The (UK) report evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of science in primary and secondary schools between 2004 and 2007. Standards in science have not improved substantially in the last three years. This report identifies the reasons for this and provides examples of schools where young scientists excel. It also discusses issues at the heart of science teaching today. |

Science : Primary - Secondary School Transition
http://www.planet-science.com/sciteach/index.html?page=/sciteach/sen/index.html Science : Primary - Secondary School Transition Passport is a template for successful bridging projects between primary and secondary schools. By collecting visas for skills and investigations to carry forward into KS3, pupils build a reassuring link for themselves between their schools. As a record of pupil achievements at KS2 Passport provides tangible information to KS3 teachers to build upon that success. A choice of investigations and structured follow-up helps you plan the elusive smoother transition. |

Science : Developing Educational Standards (USA)
http://edstandards.org/StSu/Science.html Science : Developing Educational Standards (USA) Good teachers have standards in mind when they set their lessons up, where the idea of a "standard" represents a specific idea of what the teacher expects a student to recall, replicate, manipulate, understand, or demonstrate at some point down the road - and of how the teacher will know how close a student has come to meeting that standard. Standards, in other words, are conceptually nothing new - though we do seem to keep reinventing them. We have established this page as a repository for as much information about educational standards and curriculum frameworks from all sources (national, state, local, and other) as can be found on the Internet. |

Roseacre Primary School (UK) - Science Policy
http://www.roseacre.blackpool.sch.uk/2002/Doc/Science%20policy.htm Roseacre Primary School (UK) - Science Policy "Science stimulates and excites pupils curiosity about phenomena and events around them. It also satisfies this curiosity with knowledge. Since science links direct practical experience with ideas, it can engage learners at many levels. In their early experiences of the world, pupils develop ideas which enable them to make sense of the things that happen around them. They bring these basic ideas into the classroom and the aim of sciences education is to give pupils more exploratory power so that their ideas can become useful concepts." |
