Arvustused

"Science education is quickly becoming fully interdisciplinary as we break down barriers between science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) and expand students opportunities to communicate ideas about complex issues that affect our nation and the world. With the emphasis on STEM and student research, excellent writing and presenting is of utmost importance for student success and advancing scientific findings. Writing Science Right contains practical examples for bringing science and writing together, from authors who are deeply committed to education." - Dr. Carol ODonnell, Director, Smithsonian Science Education Center
