Resource Reviews

ASTA regularly publishes reviews of science teaching resources in our quarterly journal, Teaching Science. These reviews are written by qualified teachers from across Australia. Some of our most recent reviews are published below.

If you are a qualified teacher of science in primary or secondary school and would like to join ASTA's resource reviewer registry, please contact the Publications Manager on publications@asta.edu.au

Publishers and other providers who would like their resources reviewed should use the same contact email address.

Note: These reviews are the independent opinions of the reviewers and do not represent the views or the endorsement of the Australian Science Teachers Association.
