Addressing obstacles and identifying strategies to making science accessible
for all learners
This iMovie was made by
Carolina Counts in the first week of her elementary science methods course as
she reflected upon her science experience. Carolina had largely positive experiences
in her K-16 science learning due to the fact that her mother was continually
exposing her to science through books and toys at home. Carolina was sad to
learn that the rich animal husbandry experience she had in elementary school
had long since been abandoned. While reading from such provocative authors as
Herbert Kohl, Phillip Jackson, William Ayers, bell hooks, and other teacher/scholars
Carolina and other pre-service elementary teachers of Teacher Education 910C
expressed their commonly shared frustrations with their science learning experiences
and desire to learn alternative methods.
