商品簡介
Contributed by educators from the US, Canada, Europe, New Zealand, and Australia, this volume presents 16 chapters on the application of inquiry-based learning to STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) programs in higher and K-12 education. They describe inquiry-based learning in an undergraduate honors program in health sciences, first-year undergraduate physics laboratories, biological engineering, chemistry, genetics, math, science education, life sciences, nursing, and environmental science; the role of Arnold Arons in pioneering inquiry-based learning in physics; the use of context-based learning; evaluation practices of inquiry-based science education; and how problem-based learning can enhance inquiry-based learning environments in a nursing course.
