Odilla Finlayson reviews this guide to thinking about and constructing research

Connecting the outputs of research in science education to classroom practice is an ongoing challenge. A solution to this has now been presented in the ASE guide to research in science education. In-service and pre-service science teachers, new researchers in science education and those already experienced in this area now have a very accessible book showing the value and impact of science education research on the learning community.

This book has contributions from a range of authors - science education researchers, teachers and academics. It consists of two sections: Section 1 focuses on a thematic review of research in science education while Section 2 deals with conducting research.

A photograph of a teacher standing in a white lab coat, speaking with a class of children in a laboratory, is superimposed on a colourful background. Text reads "Teach Chemistry means support for classroom and staff room".
