Science and ICT in the Primary School : A Creative Approach to Big Ideas

With a strong focus on helping children to learn the "big ideas" in science, this book provides detailed and practical guidance on how to use ICT to support creative science teaching.

Emphasising learning science "through" the technology rather than "from" it, the book strikes a good balance between practical and academic dimensions through: practical suggestions on how to plan schemes of work and lessons; directed activities to help students put ideas into classroom practise; case studies that highlight how ICT can be incorporated into cross-curricular themes of study; examples of real science lessons; advice on organising learning in "out of school" settings
