Science Instruction in the Middle and Secondary Schools: Developing Fundamental Knowledge and Skills (7th Edition)
$137.00This science methods textbook is designed to provide middle and high school science teachers with the skills they need to help students become scientifically and technologically literate. To be successful, beginning teachers must master the basic functions of teaching. They are:
-
Understanding the purpose of science teaching
-
Planning science lessons that are engaging and lead to meaningful learning
-
Managing the science learning environment in ways that emphasize student responsibility
-
Assessing students science learning throughout the instructional process
-
Teaching in a way that is both active and personally rewarding.
Once these basic skills have been mastered, then pre-service teachers are ready to tackle the other important topics relevant to science teaching and learning. In order to meet this goal, the authors immediately engage their readers with six introductory chapters on these basic skills. The remaining chapters focus on the foundational areas of science education and strategies for science teaching. Many vignettes and examples of classroom practices are included to reinforce the chapter content. The appendices provide Puzzling Situations, science demonstrations, science laboratory activities, and a scoring key for the science inventory found in Chapter One.

Macroeconomics: An Integrated Approach
$125.90Many undergraduate texts treat macroeconomics as a set of distinct topics rather than as a unified body of theory and empirical findings. In contrast, this text by Alan Auerbach and Laurence Kotlikoff uses a single analytic framework — the two-period life-cycle model — to explore and connect each of the major issues in contemporary macroeconomics. The model describes the evolution of the economy over time in terms of the behavior of overlapping generations of individuals, each of whom lives for two periods: youth and old age. This versatile framework can encompass most macroeconomic schools of thought through the alteration of key assumptions. The use of one basic model also allows the authors to explore important topics not always addressed adequately in other texts; these include credit constraints, real business cycles, generational accounting, and international capital flows markets. Written in a clear, accessible style, this shortened and simplified second edition provides a systematic way to interpret macroeconomic outcomes, to understand various policy proposals, and to appreciate how individuals and firms fit into the big picture.

Statistical Dynamics: A Stochastic Approach to Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics
$123.90How to construct dynamical systems obeying the first and second laws of thermodynamics: mean energy is conserved, and entropy increases with time? The book answers this question for classical probability (Part I) and quantum probability (Part II). A novel feature is the introduction of heat particles which supply thermal noise and represent the kinetic energy of molecules. When applied to chemical reactions, the theory leads to a nonlinear reaction – diffusion equations exhibiting oscillations or convergence to equilibrium.
