I have asked my school to provide the science teachers Professional Development using this book. I started reading it alone, but it is really intended for group discussions. Excellent examples and materials to get started.

Product description
Review
"This books in a valuable resource for advancing the scientific practices in the Next Generation Science Standards. Dr. Llewellyn's approach to situating argumentation into inquiry-based teaching and learning, will support teacher educators in realizing the central role argumentation plays in helping students make defensible connection between claims, data, evidence, and explanations. Not only is this a timely publication, but one that is sure to be well-used." -- Page Keeley "Like his first edition, this book is essential reading for both new and veteran science teachers. With the publication of the new AP Biology curriculum and its inquiry based labs, as well as the soon to come Next Generation Science Standards, it has never been more important to integrate inquiry into our classrooms." -- James Dixon "This book is a comprehensive resource to aid teachers who are interested in initiating a 'student-centered' classroom and improving scientific literacy of their students in an effort to meet national science standards." -- NSTA Recommends, February 2013

4.0 out of 5 stars Very detailed
Verified PurchaseIt has everything you ever wanted to know about how to teach inquiry, scientific argumentation, or both along with case studies illustrating what each example would look like. The reading is a bit dry and generally I do it in shifts, but other than that, it is a bible for questions on how to implement inquiry. I especially enjoy the case studies, they are very illustrating. This is the 3rd book of the authors I have read and the 2nd I have bought.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of several good guides available
Verified PurchaseOne of several good guides available. One fact that's overlooked by this and other authors is that teachers are very rarely afforded class periods which are long enough to develop good inquiry/argumentation scenarios. Just can't be done effectively in only 40 minutes, nor even four or five consecutive 40 minute periods, as they're usually so fragmented. But the approach is still worth working toward.

3.0 out of 5 stars Inquiry Resource
Verified PurchaseI agree that inquiry should be a focus of high school science teachers and most likely many other high school teachers when they are presenting material to students; however, I believe that the author is a bit radical in the way he presents how often we should use inquiry. I believe there is a balance that every teacher should meet that includes inquiry into their lesson planning. The book was insightful, but not always the easiest to read.
