Summary

Abstract: Event-Based Science is a new way to teach science at the middle
school level. Newsworthy events establish the relevance of science
topics; authentic tasks create the need-to-know more about those
topics; and lively interviews, photographs, Web pages, and
inquiry-based science activities create a desire to know more about
those topics.

The Event-Based Science Project is supported by grants from
National Science Foundation and the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, and published by Dale Seymour Publications.
