Science Subject

School science subjects may be informed by curriculum ideologies such as discipline-centered, service-centered, student-centered, or citizen-centered ideologies. The distinct characteristics of each ideology complicate the extent to which science subjects could integrate different curriculum ideologies. Consequently, the present research explored how different curriculum ideologies are reflected in a school science subject. Natural Sciences was used as a case study that followed a mixed-methods approach. Inductive content analysis was performed on the curriculum document to determine its foregrounding curriculum ideologies using a validated open-ended instrument. Findings indicate that Natural Sciences integrates four curriculum ideologies concurrently. These are the student-centered ideology, service-centered ideology, discipline-centered ideology, and citizenship-centered ideology. However, while attempting to adopt multi-curriculum ideologies, the subject could not ensure equal representation of these ideologies. For example, citizenship-centered ideology received the least representation even though it is the ideology most related to the imperatives of social empowerment. It is concluded that the integration of different ideologies may lead to teaching difficulties where teachers find it challenging to adapt teaching methods that satisfy all four curriculum ideologies. Additionally, students in different schools may be taught according to different curriculum ideology principles, leading to inconsistencies in attained learning outcomes.

The Subject

Ensuring that students reach the determined goals of the courses at the desired level is one of the primary goals of teaching. In order to achieve this purpose, educators use a variety of teaching strategies and methods, and teaching materials appropriate to the content and the subject of the courses in the teaching process. As a matter of fact, it is known that the methods and materials that appeal to different sense organs of the students influence the learning process positively. In addition, the use of various teaching methods, techniques and materials in the teaching process both attract students’ attention and save the lesson from boredom, which affects the learning positively. In the process of teaching students sometimes have problems using their theoretical knowledge in real life situations. In this context, various teaching methods are also used for the practicalization of theoretical knowledge in the teaching processes. The case study method is one of the effective methods to achieve this purpose, because the case study method is a teaching method that enables students to acquire the knowledge and skills to deal with the problem they are working on and to produce information-based solutions in real life situations similar to the situations they are working with. In this study, the literature related to the case study method was examined and the application of the method, its history, application types, points to be considered in the application process, advantages of using the method in the teaching process and its limitations and teaching techniques to be used with the method are explained.

Teaching Learning

To facilitate the process of knowledge transmission, teachers should apply appropriate teaching methods that best suit specific objectives and level exit outcomes. In the traditional teaching-learning mode many practitioners applied teacher-centered teaching methods to impart knowledge to students comparatively student-centered methods. The subject information produced by the learners is remembered better than the same information presented to the learners by the lecturer. The present study has been attempted by the researcher to explore the teaching methods adopted by teachers in formal mode teaching processes. The methods inputs, its operation and utility have been studied with teaching specificity in the Indian context. In formal education system attendance of students in a classroom is a major task. All teacher tries to accept this challenge and work hard to maintain this task. Adunola, 2011 added quite remarkably, regular poor academic performance by the majority students is fundamentally linked to application of ineffective teaching methods by teachers to impart knowledge to learners. This study revealed that even though 20 teaching methods were to be adopted by teachers of four faculties only vert less number of teaching methods practiced. As a whole, a large majority of teacher of art faculty (96.25 percent) adopted lecture method, 78.75 percent teacher of art faculty adopt discussion method. Hand-on-teaching method adopted by science teacher and teacher educators (25.00 percent).

In this work the WIHIC (What is Happening In this Classroom) instrument was used to assess the types of interactions, from students' perspectives, that occur in two science classrooms in Trinidad & Tobago. It was the first attempt to use the WIHIC instrument in the research context. An exploratory case study research design in the quantitative paradigm was employed in the assessment. The findings reveal that classroom interactions were dominated by student-centered interactions that mapped onto the student cohesiveness and cooperation scales of the WIHIC instrument. A high level of interaction in the investigation and involvement scales was also determined. What was surprising however, was the low level of teacher supportive interactions and interactions which demonstrated teacher impartiality as reported from students' perspective.

Teaching methods based on inquiry are more and more widely used in teaching natural sciences. In accordance with the new curriculum, introduced to Polish schools in 2008, students should gain new knowledge based on an inquiry. This fact is related to a change of teachers’ approach in the didactic process and a change in the assessment system. This article undertakes an attempt to analyse how a teacher - who has theoretical knowledge in the field of IBSE teaching methods and evaluating students working in this manner - does the said in practice at the level of lower secondary school, during chemistry classes. The presented case study is based on didactic materials developed at the SAILS project. Key words: formative assessment, IBSE, case study, polymers.
