    Science education II: Scientific literacy and the Karplus taxonomy (1994)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 3 (1994), S. 89-97 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; physics education ; scientific literacy ; scientific models ; conceptual structure of science ; science misconceptions
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Natural Sciences in General , Technology
    Notes: Abstract In this essay we explore the role played by the conceptual structure of science in scientific literacy. It is shown that the taxonomy of scientific concepts elucidated by Karplus is a basic structural characteristic of science, and provides a natural means forengaging, as distinct from merely “learning,” scientific content. Special attention is given to the idea “scientific model” as being fundamental to the discipline and therefore essential to scientific literacy. The relationship between scientific models and common misconceptions is developed.

    Future teacher scholarship programs for science education: Rationale for teaching in perceived high-need areas (1994)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 3 (1994), S. 71-76

    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; undergraduate scholarships ; teacher education scholarships

    Notes: Abstract Data from Oklahoma Future Scholarship Recipients were collected covering awards over a seven-year period. Scholarships ($1000–$1500 per year) were awarded by the State Regents for Higher Education to attract and retain potential teachers into the teaching of science. The study focused on the reasons that these teachers (N=58) went into the teaching of science. From the survey teachers went into teaching because (in ranked order) they want to teach subject matter; they were committed to social change; they liked to work with and be a positive force in the life of children (adolescents), etc. They did not go into teaching for money, because it was easy, because they drifted into it, or because it was not their first choice. The teachers who received scholarships like teaching science, liked teaching, and are (they say) likely to stay in the field, but they would have gone into teaching anyway: 82% were not enticed into either the field or the discipline of science by their scholarships. Those who would use scholarships in the $1000–$1500 per year range, as a marketing strategy, to attract students to a discipline such as science should rethink the efficacy of this approach.

    Knowledge dissemination and use in science and mathematics education: A literature review (1994)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 3 (1994), S. 27-47 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; mathematics education ; research and development ; constructivism ; research utilization ; knowledge use ; knowledge utilization ; dissemination ; linking agents
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Natural Sciences in General , Technology
    Notes: Abstract A synthesis of the literature on knowledge dissemination and use in education, notably in science and mathematics, is presented. Perspectives have changed in the ways in which knowledge and products are seen to reach potential users. From the top-down, linear models, we have come closer to bottom-up approaches and to the crucial role of linking agents. At present, the most influential approach is a “constructivist” one, whereby research and other kinds of specialized knowledge is exchanged between researchers and professionals in a mutually constructed social context. While there is still debate over the best predictors of successful knowledge use, the scope of the field has been considerably enlarged by including users' perspectives. To some extent then, specialists in this field are now working in a new paradigm.

    LabNet: Toward a community of practice (1993)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 2 (1993), S. 305-319 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; science projects ; community of practice ; telecommunication ; educational technology
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Natural Sciences in General , Technology
    Notes: Abstract It is common currency that science education in America isn't working well enough. We are failing to excite the curiosity of young minds in the great questions of the physical universe. LabNet—a prototype teacher-support project developed by TERC, and funded by the National Science Foundation, is dedicated to addressing this issue. The first three year phase of LabNet began in January 1989 and ended in mid-1992. During that time, some 562 high school teachers of physics in 37 states were involved. Three interconnected threads are woven through the fabric of LabNet. The first, and most vivid, is the use of projects to enhance students' science learning. LabNet's second thread is building a community of practice among LabNet teachers. The third thread woven into LabNet is promoting the use of new technologies in science teaching and learning. The most notable use of new technology in the LabNet project is telecommunications—computer-to-computer communication via telephone lines. A dedicated network has been created and made available to all participants. As the first national network designed for high school teachers of physical science, the LabNetwork is a dynamic medium for building and sustaining a community of practice for physics teachers separated by many thousands of miles. In recommendations directed at teachers, scientists, and particularly the National Science Foundation, steps are outlined that can be taken to strengthen the community and the teaching of science in both the secondary and elementary grades.

    Science education — I: The spirit of science (1993)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 2 (1993), S. 513-519 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; science education reform ; scientific literacy ; philosophy of education ; existentialism in education
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Natural Sciences in General , Technology
    Notes: Abstract In these two essays we explore the questions: what are the essential features of a workable context for science education? What are the givens, the “of courses,” the “fundamental dispositions” toward science and toward education necessary — or at least sufficient — to provide a fertile ground upon which a functional approach to science education can be established? In the present essay it is argued first that science education must reflect that science is a way of thinking — in fact, more comprehensively, a way of being; and second, and that the fundamentally antiauthoritarian spirit of science must be reconciled with education, with its built-in tendency to be authoritarian.

    Project on scope, sequence, and coordination: A new synthesis for improving science education (1992)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 1 (1992), S. 13-21 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; science education reform ; SS&C ; NSTA ; assessment ; CD-I

    Notes: Abstract The Project on Scope, Sequence, and Coordination of Secondary School Science (SS&C) is a major national project designed to reform science education, K-12. Based on research on learning science, the project includes provision for hands-on experience, sequencing over time at successively higher levels of abstraction, and taking account of student preconceptions. Associated with SS&C is a performance-based student assessment project which incorporates compact-disc interactive (CD-I) technology. The SS&C project and its assessment component were initiated by the author and have become projects of the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) funded by the National Science Foundation and the U.S. Department of Education. Projects are underway in California, North Carolina, Iowa, Puerto Rico, Texas, and Alaska.

    Science education reform: What's wrong with the paradigm? (1992)
    Springer
    Journal of science education and technology 1 (1992), S. 85-93 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1839
    Keywords: Science education ; educational reform
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Natural Sciences in General , Technology
    Notes: Abstract From previous and current efforts at science education reform, the author teases out a certain “culture of reform,” a set of assumptions about educational change that are no longer (if they ever were) appropriate to another task, namely managing change. With reference to a group of programs in undergraduate science instruction that work, she finds the research model, the preference for innovation, the dependence on short-term outside funding, and above all, the seeking after some universal curriculum or set of pedagogies that will solve the problem for all time, to be naive in terms of the reality and the politics of change. She would substitute what Gerald Holton in “A Nation at Risk, Revisited” calls “cumulative improvement,” and ends with some suggestions as to how such a model could be applied to the organization of college-level instruction in science.
