School systems in Ohio have been and now are expanding large amounts of teachers and supervisory energy and considerable sums of money to upgrade science teaching in the elementary school. Science is a field in which what is worth teaching, how it should be learned, and how much time it should be given are still open questions that have to be worked through with many teachers.

Culturally, science has been regarded as a man's field, yet most elementary teachers are women. Teachers need to come to grips with the importance of science in the elementary program. Many teachers need to know more science in terms both of its scope and its process if they are to teach more of it or to teach it more confidently and effectively. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1962 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
