Decision Making in the Practical Domain: A Model of Practical Conceptual Change.
Feldman, Allan
Science Education, v84 n5 p606-23 Sep 2000
Considers teaching as an activity in which teachers deliberate in the practical domain to decide on actions and goals. Argues that because practical reasoning is similar to scientific reasoning, a model of practical conceptual change can be developed that is analogous to the conceptual change model. Examines two case studies of teachers using the practical conceptual change model. (Contains 36 references.) (Author/YDS)
