Author

Texley, Juliana

Subjects
First year teachers -- Training, Classroom management -- Methods, Science teachers -- Evaluation, Education, Science and technology
Abstract

Adjusting to new teachers in the school environment may be rough at first and can be smoothened out by anticipating problems. New teachers have a higher level of technical training in their subjects and are more comfortable with computers than their predecessors. They are also capable of encouraging cooperative learning. However, new teachers are inadept at dealing with parents with strong concerns. They need to be trained in time management, and details of attendance, grading, discipline and requisitioning materials. Science teachers need to attend to the basics of safety and disposal.

33. Bait-shop biology: an overlooked source of classroom invertebrates

Author

Texley, Juliana

Subjects
Bait -- Usage, Biological specimens -- Collections and collecting, Education, Science and technology
Abstract

Practical biological experiments with live specimens are expensive and constrained by time and limited work area. A solution to these impediments is to approach the local bait-shop which will provide a regular supply of invertebrate specimens for experiments that can be conducted by the students themselves. Nurturing these live organisms would help students to gain direct insight into animal behavior and develop affinity for life around them. Such biological experiments result in better performance in studies, and motivate students to take up science at higher levels of education.
