Nuffield chemistry: the sample scheme stage 3 - a course of options
The Nuffield Chemistry team produced guidance for teachers in a Sample Scheme covering ages 11-16 in three stages.
The developers were keen to emphasise that the scheme was only a sample, and that many other items of chemical subject-matter could be taught using the Nuffield approach; an approach which put particular emphasis on students finding out things for themselves under careful direction, rather than being told facts and made blindly to learn them.
