A Case of Preservice Elementary Teachers Exploring, Retelling, and Reframing.
Nelson, Michael

Presents preservice elementary teachers' frames (points of view) on science curriculum. Uses Carl Sagan's text, "The Demon Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark". Explores how students retelling their reactions to experiences of their own design might influence their awareness of beliefs in general and reconsideration of personal beliefs about science and teaching.
