Twenty First Century Science is a motivating and engaging way to study science at GCSE. These resources will prepare students both for progression to further study of science and to be scientifically minded and informed citizens. The Twenty First Century Science suite will: - Develop students' abilities to critically evaluate data and information, by examining evidence and the arguments that link evidence to conclusions - Link science to issues relevant to all students and to the experiences of everyday life - Develop students' understanding of the concepts and models that scientists use to explain the world - Develop students' hands-on scientific skills and their understanding of experimental work in developing scientific explanations Built on research and evidence-based principles, these Twenty First Century Science resources have been developed alongside the specifications, with close collaboration between OCR, the University of York Science Education Group, and Oxford University Press. Student Books feature: - Content fully matched to the 2016 specifications, presented in interesting and engaging contexts - Differentiation for all abilities in the form of Higher and Foundation books - Integrated maths support throughout - Exam preparation and practical support throughout - Summary and review questions, worked examples, and plenty of practice and synoptic questions.

Education & Reference

In many countries, questions are being raised about the quality and value of educational research. This book explores the relationship between research and practice in education. It looks at the extent to which current practice could be said to be informed by knowledge or ideas generated by research and at the extent to which the use of current practices or the adoption of new ones are, or could be, supported by research evidence. Science education is used as a case study but the issues considered apply to the teaching and learning of any curriculum subject.  The book draws on the findings of four inter-related research studies and considers:   how research might be used to establish greater consensus about curriculum;   how research can inform the design of assessment tools and teaching interventions;   teachers’ and other science educators’ perceptions of the influence of research on their teaching practices and their students’ learning;   the extent to which evidence can show that an educational practice ‘works’.
