- Doing Biology
We present 17 historical cases studies in a guided inquiry format. We have aimed to address several proposals for reforming science education. Textbooks teach biological content. We want students learn more: about the history and nature of science, about science in practice — about doing biology.

- Home | Practical Physics
Welcome to the Practical Physics website Experiments can sharpen students' powers of observation, stimulate questions, and help develop new understanding and vocabulary. This website is for teachers of physics, enabling them to share their skills and experience of making experiments work in the classroom. We appreciate that some students also use the site, but we cannot provide answers to student questions. For more on our aims, see 'about the site'.

- Science Case Studies and Problem Based Learning: Studying Problems Using Prior Knowledge, Experiences, and Reasoning
The use of case studies in science is actually a group of methods used to stimulate student critical thinking and inquiry learning. Science case studies can be complex or they can simple in design. The important component of any case study is to engage students in the learning process as they use problem based learning strategies to solve the case. Case studies in science are appropriate for all grade levels in science education. The degree of difficulty increases with grade level. This is due to students relying on their prior knowledge and experiences in science, which influences their reasoning ability.
