Physical and Chemical Change in Textbooks: An Initial View.
Palmer, Bill; Treagust, David F.
Research in Science Education, v26 n1 p129-40 1996
Examines how chemistry/science textbooks from different countries and written at different levels of education deal with physical and chemical change. Results indicate that the ideas concerning the teaching and learning of physical and chemical change evident in textbooks are not complete and textbooks seldom justify the content they cover in philosophical terms. Contains 47 references. (Author/JRH)
