The "Socialization" and Enculturation of Ecologists in Formal and Informal Settings.
Bowen, G. Michael; Roth, Wolff-Michael
Electronic Journal of Science Education, v6 n3 Mar 2002
Examines the formal and informal settings in which ecologists learn about their discipline and reports on the contributions that each setting makes to learning about the conduct of field research. Reveals oft-ignored informal aspects of learning about the conduct of ecology research such as story telling in "leisure" settings as being important to becoming enculturated into ecological field research practices.
