Finally Understanding Science So You Can Teach It

& 8220;

When I was back in college, there was a course titled Physics for Poets. At a school where I taught physics, the same kind of course was referred to by the students as Football Physics. The theory behind having courses like these was that poets and/or football players, or basically anyone who wasn’t a science geek, needed some kind of watered-down course because most of the people taking the course were—and this was generally true—SCARED TO DEATH OF SCIENCE.

In many years of working in education, I have found that the vast majority of elementary school teachers, parents who homeschool their kids, and parents who just want to help their kids with science homework fall into this category. Lots of “education experts” tell teachers they can solve this problem by just asking the left questions and having the kids investigate science ideas on their own. These experts say you don’t need to understand the science concepts. In other words, they’re telling you to fake it! Well, faking it doesn’t work when it comes to teaching anything, so why should it work with science? Like it or not, you have to understand a subject before you can help kids with it. Ever tried teaching someone a foreign language without knowing the language?

The whole point of the Stop Faking It! series of books is to help you understand basic science concepts and to put to rest the myth that you can’t understand science because it’s too hard. If you haven’t tried other ways of learning science concepts, such as looking through a college textbook, or subscribing to Scientific American or reading the incorrect and oversimplified science in an elementary school text, please feel free to do so and then pick up this book. If you find those other methods more enjoyable, then you really are a science geek and you ought to give this book to one of us normal folks. Just a joke, okay?
