Students Teaching Students: Jigsawing Through an Environmental Biology Course

by: Thomas R. Lord
edited by: Robert E. Yager

The environmental biology course discussed in this chapter was designed for non- science majors, most of whom were preservice elementary education students. Instruction in the course is designed around the constructivist teaching model based on inquiry instruction and features the student-teaching-student design of instruction. In this chapter the author describes many ways to use the jigsaw technique. This sample chapter also includes the Table of Contents, Preface, Foreword, and Index.
