Principles of Teaching and Learning Science

The document discusses the principles of teaching science which include: 1) Science teaching should be consistent with the nature of scientific inquiry by allowing students to investigate problems and test their own ideas. 2) Science teaching should reflect scientific values such as being gentle, honest, and creative in experiments. 3) Science teaching should aim to counteract learning anxieties by turning difficult activities into exploration and allowing students to learn at their own pace. 4) Science teaching should extend beyond the classroom by applying lessons to daily life outside of school.

THE PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING SCIENCE PRACTICES

Science Teaching Should Be Consistent ‘I set problem and let my student


with the Nature of Scientific Inquiry investigate, observe the given problem
and even answer their questions and then
let them possible solution and let them
test their ideas, all they have to do is
follow their intuition and not even
bothered with their conscious reasoning.
Science Teaching Should Reflect ‘I always watch my students everytime
Scientific Values they perform their experiment or even just
an activity, and always remind them to be
gentle and dedicated to their work at all
times. To be honest and modest, also to
go beyond so they can be creative in
many ways and to be imaginative that
does it cannot limit their ability to explore.
Natural Science Teaching Should Aim to ‘among the subjects in basic education, I
Counteract Learning Anxieties can really say that science is also a
cruicial subject. And so I had this idea of
turning hard activities into exploration,I let
the explore and just observe of what they
were doing, not forcing or pushing them
into their limits but instead letting them
unfold things slowly to avoid learning
anxiety. After all learning is always been
considered as a process. Maybe a slow
but yet consistent process.
Natural Science Teaching Should Extend ‘ in unfolding and learning new things we
Beyond the School tend to dig beyond limitations. Its not that
we force to learn everything rather we
explore in a nicer way. How bout applying
it to our daily lives, which does not only
what we learn inside school premises but
also at the moment we step out of the
school gate.

Analysis:

1. How do teacher make good use of the Principles of Teaching Science?


- It serves as their guide in building their students capacity to unravel things
beyond expectation. Teaches them to be a good teacher and to take charge
of their students learning.
2. Is following the Principles beneficial for the students? Why do you say so?
- Yes, because it does not only helps teacher to become a good educator but
may also help students to be a great explorer in following the principles. It
teaches and prepares them for the future.
3. For you, what makes an educator a good science teacher? Why?
- An educator is not only a good science teacher rather, she/he has to be a
good teacher at all aspects. So to achieve being a good science teacher you
have to be a great educator.
4. How do you think students these days view science as a subject?
- I am one of those students that hates science after all but upon having all the
courage to be a science teacher soon, I realize that studying science was
quite interesting. Some may think that science is cruicial, yes I agree but I can
assure that learning science is as great as learning your favorite subject.
5. What can you say about the latest international assessment result that the
Philippines is one of the lowest student science and english literacy?
- Maybe we have the best in our country but other country also had their best
students too. But doesn’t mean we ranked as one of the lowest, we aren’t
capable of [Link]’s just that we are lacking at some point that is related in
learning these phases.
