Science Stories is a 'must read' !

Science Stories is a 'must read' for all teachers. As Dr. Koch's prior student, I can tell you firsthand that Dr. Koch is a master of teaching science. She discusses in detail, activity-based learning. Dr. Koch describes in a clear, well-written manner how we are all scientists when we question our everyday happenings. She helps us to reflect on our thinking and to respect our students' inquiries. We can bring out the 'science-self' in all our students and Dr. Koch guides us wonderfully!
