| dc.description.abstract | Some teachers have adopted a method of teaching science called independent learning. This development has been as a response to two main trends in education--mixed ability teaching and a call for more active participation of the student in the learning process. Independent learning based on self-contained "study guides" is also an attempt to remedy some of the problems caused by the adoption of disjointed, single worksheets. In the Caribbean context, independent learning can help offset problems associated with the lack of qualified science teachers and the loss of teaching time due to public holidays and various functions. The preparation of study guides for selected topics is suggested, to be used alongside the normal teaching programme for other topics | |
