Understanding Science as a Discipline

Episode 114: This week on Thinking Deeply about Primary Education, I'm joined by Dan Rosen and Elliot Morgan for an in-depth exploration of science practical experiments, including key principles to keep in mind, and what their purpose is at all . As part of the chat we discuss...

1. What is the purpose of practicals in science?

2. What are the principles of effective science practicals?

3. What practical considerations must teachers make to ensure they run smoothly?

4. It feels like a heavy time investment to change an approach to practicals. How would you review the strengths and weaknesses of what you have in place?

...plus much, much more.

Whether you're new to the profession or an experienced senior leader, you won't want to miss this one!
