Throughout this book, the authors emphasize that primary science is at its best as a practical, hands-on experience for children. When ICT is used in an integral way, it can enable practical work to be done at a more sophisticated level, helping children to make sense of their findings. The book includes several case studies from primary classrooms and each chapter includes practical suggestions for teachers.

The wide-ranging topics covered include:

databases and spreadsheets
data logging
control technology
ICT, drama and science
school visits
planning for ICT and science
choosing and using software.

ICT and Primary Science is an accessible and jargon-free resource for teachers and student teachers of primary science.

Industry Reviews

'An easy to read and well polished guide to using ICT in primary education for the technophobic and technosceptical teacher...This book is a great investment for all slightly nervous primary teachers who do not relish the idea of using the 'computer in the corner' and also those who would use computers in a limited way but are ready to take their next step towards seeing just how far ICT can take lessons.' - Education Today

'This is a very useful book for all primary teachers, coordinators new to the role and students training to become primary teachers ... the book would be a valuable and hopefully, well-read addition to a primary school's resources.' - Primary Science Review

'This encouraging and well written book follows the traditional software-driven route to give readers an improved appreciation of the great potential of IT in the science classroom' - British Journal of Educational Technology

'ICT and Primary Science argues repeatedly for a hands-on approach to teaching and learning ... it does provide some useful guidance, information and discussion. The book will be a welcome addition to the libraries of teacher training establishments, and support for primary science tutors and their students.' - Anne Qualter, Educational Review
