The Current Crisis in Secondary School Science Education--And One Response.
Brinckerhoff, Richard F.
NASSP Bulletin, v66 n450 p40-49 Jan 1982

Moreover, scientific technology is regarded by many as a threat to their security. Possible solutions include addressing societal issues in science classes and creating regional science resource centers. (Author/WD)
