The Study of Curriculum Change in Botswana with Special Reference to Primary Science: An Historical Perspective.
Mosothwane, Modise
Curriculum Studies, v3 n1 p79-89 1995
Paper traces historical events in the development of primary science in Botswana. Before 1969, the word "science" in primary schools was nonexistent.
