Investigating the Ocean: An interactive guide to the Science of Oceanography
by Mark Leckie and Richard Yuretich, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
Engaging students in active learning is the cornerstone of a new pedagogy in college-level science instruction that is sweeping the country. "Investigating the Ocean: An Interactive Guide to the Science of Oceanography" has been successfully tested for several years by the authors and their colleagues in the 600-student introductory oceanography course offered at the University of Massachusetts. The soft-cover book combines individual and small group problem-solving exercises ("think-pair-share"), including data interpretation and analysis, along with an illustrated guide to key concepts in oceanography. "Investigating the Ocean" is intended for daily use as an in-class teaching and learning tool. It is designed to stimulate discussion, prompt critical thinking about the world around us, and explore the nature of science in a way that is accessible to all students. "Investigating the Ocean" can be used as a supplementary text for large or small enrollment courses, whether the course has a separate laboratory or not. Tear-out pages allow for the collection of some or all of the in-class exercises, and many of these exercises can be used as the basis for more extensive homework or investigative projects.
