In order to be an effective modeller there are a number of steps you should take. Prepare the lesson well, particularly if you are going to conduct a demonstration that is new to you. If you are about to model something new for the first time, you might write out a script and rehearse what you are going to say (more of this at the end of this booklet). As you grow in confidence, it will no longer be necessary to write out a script but you will still plan exactly what you want the pupils to learn. | In order to be an effective modeller there are a number of steps you should take.

Teachers can model a range of processes in science, for example, how to use a particular piece of scientific equipment appropriately and accurately; how to record data from an experiment; how to evaluate an investigation; how to plan a more complex investigation; how to draw a particular graph; how to obtain specific information from a text or from the Internet; how to answer a test question; how to improve scientific writing. The last of these is considered in more detail in the rest of this guide. However, the points made and learned can be applied to the other processes described. | Teachers can model a range of processes in science, for example, how to use a particular piece of scientific equipment appropriately and accurately; how to record data from an experiment; how to evaluate an investigation; how to plan a more complex investigation; how to draw a particular graph; how to obtain specific information from a text or from the Internet; how to answer a test question; how to improve scientific writing.
