However, frequently their intuitive understanding of the world around them does not agree with the scientific explanation. It is important in planning instruction to know how these naïve conceptions differ from the scientific explanation, and why children construct these ideas. Development of complex concepts takes place in many small steps. Missing steps can make the correct explanation illusive or down right unattainable. This makes high-quality, age appropriate instruction at each grade level vital to the development of children’s understandings of key science concepts. schwangr Wed, 03 Oct 2007 00:57:53 +0000 science misconceptions earth science astronomy electricity http://teachspacescience.org/cgi-bin/ssrtop.plex The Space Science Education Resource Directory is a convenient way to find NASA space science products for use in classrooms, science museums, planetariums, and other settings. schwangr Tue, 02 Oct 2007 06:11:21 +0000 nasa space science curriculum resources space science physical science earth science astronomy http://astronomyonline.org/ It’s the work of one guy who loves astronomy.
