Abstract

This book adds to the current discussion about newly hired science teachers. Collectively, the authors provide insights that are related to both research and practice. The research suggestions emerge from studies of new teachers, while the practical side of this book presents approaches to supporting new teachers that are grounded in research. Within these two dimensions, there is an emerging theory about supporting new teachers in order to ensure their ongoing professional development.
