Hydroponics by Jeffrey Winterborne
This book demonstrates school-based approaches to primary science teacher education. The models used involve partnerships between universities and primary schools to engage pre-service primary teachers in classroom teaching and learning that effectively connects theory with practice separate to the formal practicum arrangements. The book is a culmination of the research and collaboration of researchers from five Australian universities involved in the Science Teacher Education Partnerships with Schools (STEPS) project, funded by the Australian Government Office for Learning and Teaching.While the STEPS project focused on partnerships in primary science teacher education, a key strength of the partnership model (the STEPS Interpretive Framework) developed and explored in this book is its applicability for cross-case, national, international, and inter-state analyses of partnership practices. This is shown through a number of case studies where the STEPS Interpretive Framework is applied and evaluated in the context of other school- or learning-related partnerships. These broad-ranging analyses illustrate the relevance of the model to a range of settings, both within and outside of education.
Over twenty years ago Jeffrey Winterborne developed a very keen interest in rare ethnobotanical plants. This interest developed into a very strong hobby which dominated his life. Jeffrey explored many cultivation styles over the years finally settling on hydroponics which took over from all previous methods employed.After years of experience in both soil cultivation and hydroponic cultivation, in 1997 he opened a hydroponics and indoor horticultural grow shop in Guildford town centre, Surrey, U.K. to which to date, he still owns and runs. With over fifteen years of dealing with the general public, the trade and scientists, answering every type of imaginable and some unimaginable questions on the subject of hydroponics and indoor cultivation during this time frame, Jeffrey felt it was well overdue for a professional, well educated, and up-to-date U.K. grow book to be released.
