In primary science teaching, emphasis is placed on the development<\/a> of scientific process<\/strong> skills in pupils. It is important for you to understand that science is a body of knowledge<\/a> developed through the scientific method. The scientific method<\/a> involves problem solving using scientific process skills. It must be emphasised here that as a teacher you need to have the necessary skills and positive scientific attitudes to design and facilitate science activities in class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concept of Scientific Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Processes in science at times are called process skills<\/em>, they are characteristics of the method through which scientific knowledge is generated, established and developed. Process skills are fundamental to science, allowing the teachers and learners to conduct investigations and reach conclusions. Science learning and developing process skills are closely connected. Since most of the science that primary school teachers will be dealing with emphasise material centred activity, it is essential that they are competent in basic science process skills through hands on science teaching experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through this, the skills are brought into the classrooms and the teachers are the agents. They need to be inducted to the process skills during their training. The process is intractably linked to communication skills. Though the processes apply to other areas of education, they become more meaningful to science when they are defined and considered in a scientific sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientific Process Summary<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The table below is a summary of the science process skills. The summary covers both basic and integrated science process skills<\/a> discussed in the previous article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
