Taylor & Francis Ltd Practical Ideas for Teaching Primary Science

Peter Loxley explores different scientific topics from growing plants and nutrition to forces and magnetism with an emphasis on story-telling and art to help children share their ideas and work collaboratively in the classroom. This practical guide uses a three-stage framework design to encourage and guide sociocultural practice across three levels: KS1 (57), lower KS2 (79) and upper KS2 (911). The ideas for practice are placed in engaging and significant contexts to encourage curiosity and enquiry and, most importantly, promote feelings of pleasure and satisfaction from science learning.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Introducing Criminology
Book SynopsisCriminology, or the study of crime, has developed rapidly as a subject in recent years, while crime and the problem of how to respond to it have become major concerns for society as a whole. This book provides a succinct, highly readable - and much needed - introduction to criminology for those who want to learn more, whether they are already studying the subject, thinking of doing so, or just interested to discover what criminology is about. Introducing Criminology begins by asking basic questions: what is crime? what is criminology?, before examining the ways in which crime has been studied, and looking at the main approaches and schools of thought within criminology and how these have been developed. The authors focus particularly upon attempts to understand and explain crime by the disciplines of psychology and sociology, and consider also the impact of feminist and postmodern thought on the development of the subject. In the second part of the book the authors take three very different topics to illustrate themes raised in the first half of the book, exploring the particular issues raised by each topic, and showing how criminologists have gone about their work. Table of ContentsIntroduction 1. Crime, the criminal and criminology 2. Offenders and non-offenders: spot the difference? 3. A broader vision of crime 4. Thinking seriously about serial killers 5. Policing and the police: key issues in criminal justice 6. CCTV and crime prevention: questions for criminology 7. Criminology: some concluding thoughts
