“This is overwhelmingly a valuable book – particularly in the context of science education in the UK. It is a book that deserves to be read more widely by science teachers, particularly those who seek not simply to extend their repertoire of teaching techniques, but who wish to place these techniques upon a sound academic footing.”
Educational Review
‘I have greatly enjoyed reading through Science Education for Citizenship. It is extremely informative and contains much of value. We will definitely be putting it on our MA in Science Education reading list.’

This book:
- offers practical guidance in devising learning goals and suitable learning and assessment strategies
- helps teachers to provide students with the skills and understanding needed to address these multi-faceted issues
