Book Overview

""The Teaching of Science as Enquiry: And Elements in a Strategy for Teaching Science in the Elementary School"" is a book written by Joseph Jackson Schwab, an American science educator. The book is a comprehensive guide that explores the concept of teaching science as an inquiry-based approach, and it presents a strategy for teaching science in elementary schools.

It also provides practical advice for teachers on how to design and implement inquiry-based science lessons, as well as how to assess student learning.
