Effective Science Instruction: What Does Research Tell Us?
Science education has received renewed attention in the United States in the last several decades, with calls for a scientifically literate citizenry in this increasingly technological society. Science for All Americans (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1989) laid out a vision describing the knowledge a scientifically literate person would have. This vision was further elucidated in Benchmarks for Science Literacy (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1993) and National Science Education Standards (National Research Council, 1996). These documents reflect a fairly broad consensus within the science education community of what scientific knowledge students should be expected to learn as they progress through grades K–12.
