Introductory Chemistry: An Active Learning Approach

Teach the course your way with INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY. Available in three flexible formats (a standard paperbound edition, a loose-leaf edition, and a hybrid edition). This text allows you to tailor the order of chapters to accommodate your particular needs, not only by presenting topics so they never assume prior knowledge but also by including any and all necessary preview or review information needed to learn that topic. The authors' question-and-answer presentation allows students to actively learn chemistry while studying an assignment. This approach is reflected in three words of advice and encouragement that are repeated throughout the book: Learn It Now! This edition integrates new features such as outstanding technological resources, coached problems in a two-column format, and enhanced art and photography, all of which dovetail with the authors' active learning approach. Even more flexibility is provided in the new edition by the Cengage YouBook, an electronic version of the text that features interactivity, integrated media, and additional algebra coverage. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.

Active Learning Techniques for Librarians

Practical Examples

A practical work outlining the theory and practice of using active learning techniques in library settings. It explains the theory of active learning and argues for its importance in our teaching and is illustrated using a large number of examples of techniques that can be easily transferred and used in teaching library and information skills to a range of learners within all library sectors. These practical examples recognise that for most of us involved in teaching library and information skills the one off session is the norm, so we need techniques that allow us to quickly grab and hold our learners’ attention. The examples are equally useful to those new to teaching, who wish to bring active learning into their sessions for the first time, as to those more experienced who want to refresh their teaching with some new ideas and to carry on their development as librarian teachers. Outlines the argument for more active learning techniques in our sessions Explains the theory of active learning Includes examples that can be used in teaching

learning? Introduction. There is no doubt that in recent years the role of the
librarian has changed. There are a number of factors that have contributed to this
transformation, but it is the numerous technological advances and the rapidly
changing information landscape that have caused the most significant changes
to our profession (Dodd, 2007). The publication, storage and retrieval of
information has altered dramatically in the last 15 years and now relies heavily
on the use of ...

Child Development: An Active Learning Approach

An Active Learning Approach

Although the field of child and adolescent development seems to be an easy one in which to provide active learning opportunities to students, few textbooks currently exist that actually do this. Child Development: An Active Learning Approach includes the following key features: - Challenging Misconceptions: true/false or multiple choice tests are incorporated at the beginning of each chapter to specifically address topics that are sources of misunderstanding amongst students. - Activities with children and adolescents: 'hands-on' activities that complement the ideas of the text, as an integral part of the text, rather than as “add-ons” at the end of each chapter. - 'The journey of research' will introduce students to the process of research that leads from early findings to more refined outcomes through real-life examples - 'Test Yourself' sections include activities that cause students to reflect on an issue through their own experiences to bring about increased motivation and understanding of a specific topic. - The Instructor's Resource CD-ROM includes a computerized test bank, PowerPoint Slides, sample syllabi, suggested in-class learning activities, and homework assignments. - The Student Study Site includes interactive videos, self-quizzes, key term flashcards, SAGE journal articles with accompanying exercises, and web links with accompanying exercises.

Active Learning in Primary Classrooms

A Case Study Approach

What do they mean by Active Learning? How can you inspire children to engage fully in their learning? How can you plan and organise a curriculum that ensures that children are actively involved in the learning process? This brand new text not only explores and examines the concept of active learning, but demonstrates how every teacher, new or experienced, can translate theory into practice and reap the rewards of children actively engaged in their own learning in the classroom. Central to the book is the series of extended case studies, through which the authors highlight examples of effective teaching and learning across the whole primary curriculum. They provide practical examples of planning, teaching and assessing to encourage, inspire and give confidence to teach in creative, integrated and exciting ways.

Translating theory into action: The tools for effective teaching and learning In this
chapter, the principles that underpin the case studies are explored in the context
of active learning. In providing opportunities for childinitiated tasks while at the
same time scaffolding sustained thinking, children make both small steps and
giant strides in their learning. In harnessing children's intrinsic curiosity, and in
providing challenges and problem solving in an atmosphere where risk taking is

Key topics include: Creating a supportive learning environment Developing the questioning skills of teachers and children Learning through assessment Developing thinking skills through curriculum subjects Active learning in early years education Philosophy for Children (P4C) Frameworks to promote thinking This is essential reading for professional studies modules on primary initial teacher education courses, including university-based (PGCE, PGDE, BA QTS, BEd), school-based (SCITT, School Direct) and employment-based routes into teaching. It also serves as a handbook for schools that are developing their approaches to active learning. Anitra Vickery works as senior lecturer in primary mathematics education and the Professional Studies Coordinator at Bath Spa University.

Also many businesses oftenvolunteer tobe involved with schools; use the

much more likely tolearn if they are engaged and motivated. This happens
whenthelearning is contextualised (Wright, 2006). Inthe absence of a

Promoting Active Learning through the Flipped Classroom Model

"This book focuses on an in-depth assessment on strategies and instructional design practices appropriate for the flipped classroom model, highlighting the benefits, shortcoming, perceptions, and academic results of the flipped classroom model"--Provided by publisher.

The flipped or inverted learning model has been around for a while. In the past,
flipping has been an interesting, but impractical, instructional strategy. However,
in the past five years, the tools necessary for flipping instruction have been
plentiful, accessible, and easy to implement through Web-based sharing services
such as YouTube, Vimeo, and SoundCloud. Consequently, we can now ask the
more substantive question: Is flipping really a more effective instructional
approach, or is ...
