IS THE INQUIRY-BASED SCIENCE EDUCATION THE BEST?
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2016, Vol 73, Issue 1
Abstract
The science education is fighting with a relatively big problem. Many academicians, teachers and also laic society are still perceiving difficulty in understanding of concepts from science subject and lack of interest about this group of subjects. In the past the teaching process was very formal focused on the memorizing of the facts without any deeper understanding of the processes in the nature. Pupils and students knew all definitions about concepts in the science subjects, but practical application was on the low level. The academicians, teachers and other people interested in the science education were eager to change system of education. They wanted to include new approach into science education.
